Hybrid tea rose 'Peace'

Rosa ‘Peace’, the legendary hybrid tea rose introduced in 1945, remains one of the most cultivated roses in the world for its spectacular blooms and hardiness. Its very large, double flowers, creamy yellow delicately edged with carmine pink, evolve subtly according to temperature and light, offering a remarkable changing effect. Lightly fragrant, they are borne on long, sturdy stems ideal for cutting. Its bushy, upright, and vigorous habit allows it to reach a beautiful stature in sunny beds or as a solitary plant. Its dark green, dense, and healthy foliage shows good disease resistance when grown in rich, well-drained soil. Rosa ‘Peace’ brings elegance, history, and brightness to the garden while attracting pollinating insects.
