Hybrid tea rose 'Gentle Giant'
Rosa 'Gentle Giant', a spectacular and intensely fragrant hybrid tea rose, is distinguished by its very large, double lavender-pink flowers with cool, slightly silvery undertones, which can reach an impressive diameter when fully open. The thick, velvety petals form a majestic and perfectly turbinated flower, borne on long, sturdy stems ideal for cutting. Its rich, sweet, and lingering fragrance makes it a remarkable variety to plant near relaxation areas to fully enjoy its scent. Its bushy, upright, and vigorous habit allows it to reach an imposing stature in sunny flowerbeds or as a focal point in a solitary planting. Prolific and repeat-flowering, it produces several generous waves of blooms throughout the summer. Its dense, healthy, dark green foliage enhances the softness of the color while exhibiting good disease tolerance in rich, deep, well-drained soil. Rosa 'Gentle Giant' brings presence, fragrance, and elegance to the garden while attracting pollinating insects.
