Rosaceae

The Rosa ‘Teasing Georgia’, commonly known as the ‘Teasing Georgia’ English Rose, is a graceful David Austin-style variety prized for its elegant blooms and refined fragrance. Its vigorous, bushy to slightly climbing habit allows it to be grown as a large shrub or espaliered against a wall, arch, or trellis. It produces large, double, rosette-shaped flowers of a rich, bright yellow, delicately deeper in the center and paler towards the edges, creating a subtle and harmonious contrast. Highly fragrant, they release a classic tea rose scent, soft and enveloping. Flowering from early summer until the first frosts, this rose offers a spectacular presence in borders or as a vertical feature. Rosa ‘Teasing Georgia’ attracts pollinating insects and brings charm, brightness, and romanticism to landscape designs.
