Hybrid Tea Rose ‘Rosemary Harkness’

‘Rosemary Harkness’ Hybrid Tea Rose (Rosa ‘Rosemary Harkness’). Rosa ‘Rosemary Harkness’, a vigorous and luminous hybrid tea rose, is distinguished by its large, double flowers in vibrant coral-orange hues mixed with salmon-pink, delicately perfumed. Its bushy, upright habit gives it a beautiful presence in flowerbeds, sunny mass plantings, or grown in large containers. Very floriferous and repeat-flowering, it offers a generous succession of blooms throughout the summer, carried on long stems ideal for cutting. Its dense, glossy dark green foliage highlights the intensity of the bloom while ensuring good disease resistance in rich, well-drained soil.

To plant ‘Rosemary Harkness’ hybrid tea rose, choose a suitable exposure: full sun. The recommended soil is: rich, fertile, well-drained, slightly acidic to neutral. Water at the base and allow air to circulate between the branches. Remove dead parts with a clean tool, then adapt pruning to the rose's group. Winter protection depends on its hardiness and the possible presence of a graft union. Water the root ball before planting and ensure water can drain after planting. During establishment, check moisture by hand before watering again.

Allow a width of 90 cm (35 in) to organize the placement of this plant in the garden. The indicated height of 1.2 m (4 ft) helps choose its position relative to neighboring plants. Keep access to the base for weeding, checking moisture, and removing damaged parts. Combine this variety with plants whose light and water needs are compatible. If you are considering a container, first check that its volume and drainage are suitable for root development. Roots in pots are more exposed to cold than those planted in the ground.
