hybrid tea rose

Hybrid tea roses (Rosa 'Tanellis' FRAGRANT CLOUD) need regular watering in order to keep their flowers and foliage looking lush. Water your roses thoroughly twice a week during the active-growth season (spring and summer). Make sure to water deeply at the base of the rose bush, avoiding wetting the leaves. Once the plant is established, water gradually less, to make the roots grow deeper, and provide water that can last through spells of dryness. During autumn and winter, you may water once a week or less, depending on the weather.

Hybrid tea rose (Rosa 'Tanellis' FRAGRANT CLOUD) need at minimum of 5 to 6 hours of direct sunlight each day in order to thrive. For best growth and flowering results, hybrid tea roses should receive at least 8 hours of full sun with some additional late afternoon or early morning light. If grown in an area with insufficient sunlight, the plant may not flower well and the foliage may become pale. To avoid this, make sure that your hybrid tea rose receives the necessary sunlight.

For Hybrid Tea Rose 'Tanellis' FRAGRANT CLOUD, pruning should be done in early spring or late winter. Prune the tops of the canes to reduce the height by about 1 foot and cut back the sides by up to a third if necessary. Pinch back each stem down to 5 to 7 leaf sets to promote flowering and take out any dead, diseased, or damaged wood. Additionally, all sucker growth should be removed from the base. Finally, remove any overcrowded branches.
