hybrid tea rose

It is important to provide the correct amount and frequency of irrigation for hybrid tea roses such as 'Jacyap' Anne Morrow Lindbergh. The best time to water hybrid tea roses is in the morning between 6 and 10 a.m., as this allows the water to move down to the root system without any evaporation. During hot, dry conditions, aim to water roses deeply once or twice per week, so that 1 to 2 inches of soil at the root zone can be saturated. When watering, use a slow trickle to allow the soil to absorb the moisture. Areas with strong winds may require more frequent irrigation. During the winter, when temperatures are lower and soil is not warm, roses may require only 1 deep irrigation per month or even less, depending on the temperature and soil conditions.

A Hybrid tea rose (Rosa 'Jacyap' ANNE MORROW LINDBERGH) requires at least 6-8 hours of sunlight each day for optimal growth. Morning sun is generally preferred to afternoon sun, as too much sunlight during the hottest part of the day can scorch the leaves. For best results, place the rose bush in a location that receives direct sunlight for most of the day. The color of the blooms may be impacted by the amount of sunlight the plant receives, so be sure to enjoy the stunning shades of pink and white this rose displays. There should also be plenty of air circulation around the plant to ensure it gets enough light.

Pruning hybrid tea roses (Rosa 'Jacqueline Hillyer' Anne Morrow Lindbergh) is an important step to take to promote the health and growth of your roses. To keep them in peak condition, prune them twice a year: once in late winter/early spring, before new growth appears, and again in late summer or early fall, after the plants have finished blooming. When pruning in late winter or early spring, remove any dead, diseased, or damaged wood; and any stems that cross and rub against each other. If the center of the plant becomes congested, remove some of the oldest canes at the base to promote air circulation and to increase the amount of light getting to the inner parts of the bush. Cut the remaining canes back by 1 third to 1 half of their length. In late summer or early fall, first remove any spent blooms and any dead, diseased, or damaged wood. Prune back any vigorous, leggy canes by 1 third to 1 half of their length, and shorten the laterals (side shoots) just above an outward-facing bud. When pruning, make a clean cut at a slight angle, just above the outward-facing bud, which will encourage new growth in the desired direction. After pruning is complete, spread a layer of fresh mulch around the base of the plant to help protect the root system from cold temperatures in the winter.
