hybrid tea rose

Hybrid tea rose (Rosa 'Adharman' COMMANDANT COUSTEAU) should be watered every other day, and the soil should be kept moist but not soggy. Water the plant deeply, soaking the root zone; when dry, apply enough water so that the soil is saturated and water begins to drain from the bottom of the pot. During the summer months when the plant is actively growing, water more frequently to keep the soil moist. In the winter months, water less often, providing just enough moisture to prevent the soil from drying out completely.

Hybrid tea roses, like Rosa 'Adharman Commandant Cousteau', need at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day for optimal growth and blooming. They will tolerate some shade, but not too much. Additionally, it's important to remember that too much direct sunlight can cause the leaves of these plants to scorch. For this reason, it's best to avoid placing them in too much direct, intense sunlight, especially in the hottest parts of day during the summer. When planting these roses outdoors, make sure to locate them in a spot that gets lots of sun, such as near the south or east side of your home.

Hybrid tea roses are best pruned in late winter or early spring before growth resumes. Pruning encourages bushier, healthier plants. The general guidelines for pruning for 'Adharman' COMMANDANT COUSTEAU are to: 1. Remove dead stems, branches and flower heads. Discard these in the compost. 2. Prune to reduce the overall size of the shrub. Cut off stems that are overgrown, especially if they are more than 2 m tall or wider than 1 m. 3. Shorten long, overly upright stems so that the shrub is more uniform in shape. 4. Prune away any diseased, damaged or crossed branches. These should be cut right back to the base. 5. Cut off the top of the main shoots by 1 third to keep the shrub compact. Do not take off more than 1 third of the shrub or it may not regrow properly. 6. Trim off any side shoots and unwanted suckers. 7. Make the pruning cuts at different heights to allow light into the centre of the bush. Remember, pruning should be done with an eye for balance, shape, and aesthetics. Don't be afraid to take a few extra minutes to make sure the pruning is aesthetically pleasing. The shrub should be pruned regularly, although not usually more than once a year. Pruning will vary depending on the size and shape of the plant.
