Family
Rosaceae

The Rosa 'City Of Welland', a vigorous and luminous hybrid tea rose, is distinguished by its large, double, deep pink flowers with slightly cherry-colored reflections, whose clear hue retains its intensity throughout its bloom. The thick, well-cupped petals form a structured flower borne on long, sturdy stems, ideal for cutting and long-lasting bouquets. Its light to moderate fragrance accompanies an abundant flowering without being overpowering. Its bushy, upright, and dense habit allows it to form a well-balanced shrub in sunny flowerbeds or as a solitary planting as a colorful focal point. Free-flowering and repeat-flowering, it offers several sustained waves of blooms during the summer. Its dark green, glossy, and resistant foliage shows good disease tolerance in rich, deep, and well-drained soil. The Rosa 'City Of Welland' brings constancy, brilliance, and structure to the garden while attracting pollinating insects.
