CLAUDE MONET™ – yellow-red hybrid tea rose
This impressionist-inspired hybrid tea brings a painterly sweep of colour to your garden, with lemon-yellow blooms streaked in raspberry-red that gradually soften into creamy pastels. It flowers reliably in waves from early summer, giving you a steady supply of elegant stems for the vase and a lively focus in small front gardens, beds and borders. The semi-double cups open enough to tempt visiting bees, yet still look refined and tidy close to the house. Its upright habit fits easily into narrow borders, paths and driveway beds where space is limited but impact matters. Own-root plants settle in steadily for a long lifespan, rebuilding from the base if stems are damaged and keeping their shape over many seasons. With good disease resistance you can enjoy the show without fussy spraying routines, even in Ireland’s damp, fungus-prone weather and humidity. In the first year it concentrates on root growth, in the second on strong new shoots, and by the third it reaches full ornamental value with confident flowering.

Reason
Front garden feature rose
The upright, compact structure makes CLAUDE MONET™ ideal for a standout rose near your doorway or along a driveway, offering strong colour without overwhelming a modest Irish front garden, perfect if you want a tidy focal point as a beginner
Small rose group in a mixed border
Planted in groups of three, the repeating lemon-yellow and raspberry-striped flowers create a painterly block of colour that blends easily with perennials and shrubs, building a reliable, low-fuss backbone for family borders for the busy
Cutting patch for home bouquets
Long, straight stems and large, cup-shaped blooms lend themselves to cutting, so a short row in a sunny corner can keep the house supplied with distinctive striped roses throughout summer, enjoyable for home decorators who like regular flowers
Urban front or side return bed
The rose’s moderate height and width make it easy to fit beside paths, railings or parking spaces, delivering high visual impact in tight urban plots while remaining simple to prune and manage for the time-pressed homeowner
Container planting on patio or balcony
In a 40–50 litre container with good drainage, this variety adapts well to life in pots, allowing you to enjoy exhibition-style blooms on a terrace or coastal balcony, especially useful where soil is poor or paving dominates for the space-limited gardener
Low-maintenance family garden bed
Strong resistance to black spot, mildew and rust helps keep the foliage clean with minimal spraying, so beds near play areas or seating stay presentable even in Ireland’s damp, fungus-favouring climate and frequent showers
Cottage-style border with climbers
Its romantic colouring partners beautifully with clematis or Virginia creeper on nearby supports, giving a soft, rural-cottage feel without complicated care, ideal for those who want charm and atmosphere more than technical gardening
Long-term structural rose in the garden plan
As an own-root plant, CLAUDE MONET™ rebuilds from the base after hard pruning or weather damage, keeping its variety traits true and providing a stable, long-lived presence in beds designed to mature gradually for the future-focused planner

Information about the videos
The video series is not a “seasonal showcase”, but makes the essence of pharmaROSA® own-root production tangible: how the plant is built, what the root system is like and how the shoots renew themselves. The footage was therefore taken at different times, showing plants at different stages of development, so mixed leaf coverage or differing growth stages may appear in the videos. This is not a “sample” of the batch delivered, but an illustration of how the technology works. The current condition of the rose available to order — typical of the given period and similar to what you can expect to receive in the parcel — is shown at the top of the product page.
