Signature Hybrid Tea Rose

This prestigious rose will dazzle you with its up to 6-inch blooms full of delicately painted petals and light, fruity fragrance. Add to this the rose's vigorous, upright habit and great disease resistance, and it is easy to see why this rose earns the name Signature.

Bred by Jackson and Perkins' own William Warriner, a respected hybridizer with over 150 varieties under his belt, this rose is remarkable for the sheer size and beauty of the blooms. Opening up to 6 inches wide, they offer squared, satiny petals with a hot pink base tone and cream-streaked centers that create a fantastic glowing effect, as if the bloom was lit from within. Each of the 30 to 35 petals also boast creamy reverses, completed the sophisticated look.

Bred as an exhibition rose, this prize-winner is a real standout in the vase. Borne mostly singly, these perfectly formed blooms arrive in waves all summer long. They open from long, pointed buds to form immense, high-centered blooms.

Upright and vigorous, the plant will swiftly reach its mature 4- to 5-foot height. The semi-glossy foliage exhibits great mildew resistance, and because it grows all the way down to the ground, eliminates the need for foreground plantings.

Plant Signature in a well-drained sunny spot. It tolerates most soil types as long as they stay evenly moist but not wet. Because Signature is not very cold hardy, making it better suited to growing in the ground than in containers. Protection from spring frosts is also recommended. Feed your roses with a high nitrogen/potassium fertilizer like Jackson and Perkins' Dynamite™ Select Rose Fertilizer.
