Hybrid tea rose 'MS Hershey'
FamilyRosaceae
The Rosa ‘M.S. Hershey’, a hybrid tea rose with a rich and sophisticated character, stands out with its large, double, deep reddish-brown flowers featuring unique chocolate hues in the modern rose palette. The thick, velvety petals form an elegantly turbinate flower whose warm hue intensifies in cool weather. Slightly fragrant, the flowers are borne on long, sturdy stems, ideal for cutting and creating striking bouquets. Its bushy, upright, and vigorous habit allows it to effectively structure sunny flowerbeds or serve as a focal point in a warm, dramatic-toned planting. Free-flowering and repeat-blooming, it offers several waves of blossoms throughout the summer. Its dark green, dense, and healthy foliage highlights the depth of its color while exhibiting good disease tolerance in rich, deep, and well-drained soil. The Rosa ‘M.S. Hershey’ brings intensity, originality, and elegance to the garden while attracting pollinating insects.
