Hybrid Tea Rose ‘Stainless Steel’

‘Stainless Steel’ Hybrid Tea Rose (Rosa ‘Stainless Steel’). The ‘Stainless Steel’ Hybrid Tea Rose is an elegant rose with an upright and structured habit, recognized for its unique coloration and the quality of its large flowers. It produces superb double lavender-gray to silvery-mauve flowers, a rare and refined shade that beautifully captures the light. The elongated buds slowly open into full, silky-petaled corollas with slightly wavy edges, held on long, sturdy stems ideal for cutting. Its continuous flowering renews from early summer until the first frosts, offering a sophisticated and contemporary effect to the garden.

To plant the ‘Stainless Steel’ Hybrid Tea Rose, choose a suitable exposure: sun. The recommended soil is: rich, well-drained. 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 group. Winter protection depends on its hardiness and the possible presence of a graft union. Water the root ball before planting and ensure that 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 to weed, check moisture, and remove damaged parts. Associate 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. Potted roots are more exposed to cold than those planted in the ground.
