Sedona® Hybrid Tea Rose

Our 2010 Rose of the Year® winner boasts sculpted petals that capture a dozen rich colors at once. Emanating a warm, peaceful glow, these tremendous high-centered double blooms glow in shades of coral, rose, red, and peach. Each is exquisitely sculpted, slowly swirling open from a pretty pointed, ovoid bud to release a heavenly sweet pear fragrance distinctively different from any other scent in the rose garden. Exhibition quality, the blooms display stronger coral and pink tones in cooler climates and richer rose and red shades in the heat. The 5-inch blooms appear in flushes throughout the season. A natural wonder of color and form, this is one rose you'll want in your border as well as your cut garden!

Sedona™ grows to 5 to 5½ feet high and 3 to 4 feet wide, cloaking itself in lovely matte, dark green leaves.

Plant in well-drained soil in full sun and water regularly, preferably in the morning. A layer of mulch during the summer months helps to retain moisture, keep roots cool, and discourage the growth of weeds. Prune hybrid tea roses to half height or 18-20 inches above the ground in early spring. Remove old canes and dead wood. Cut back canes that cross each other. Gardeners in warmer climates will want to cut the remaining canes by one-third, while those in colder climates will probably need to trim it a bit more.
