Schöne Berlinerin® hybrid tea rose – TANrised
If You love a classic hybrid tea rose but prefer easy care, Schöne Berlinerin® brings elegant, warm pink blooms on a tidy, upright bush that fits perfectly into small Irish gardens. Its reliable repeat flowering gives You waves of long-stemmed roses for cutting and for the garden, while its dense, glossy foliage keeps borders looking finished even between flushes. As an own-root plant it settles in for a long life, quietly building up a strong framework and returning beautifully year after year with relatively little fuss. It copes well with our moist climate when the soil is prepared with good drainage, making it easier to manage than many older hybrid teas. In the first year it concentrates on root growth, the second on strong shoots, and by the third season You enjoy its full ornamental value in beds and borders that stay both orderly and romantic.
