Quick to become a favorite of rose aficionados, Jackson & Perkins 2012 Rose of the Year radiates soothing emotions, evoking memories of glorious summer sunsets.
Bearing stunning yellow petals with soft pink tints deepening toward the edges, the flowers unfurl in spirals to a stunning 5 inches across, set off dramatically by rich, dark green leaves. The moderate licorice fragrance adds an air of healthy distinction.
Reaching to 5 feet high and 4 feet wide, the hybrid is great in the garden and ideal for patio containers. Highly versatile, Summer Nights Hybrid Tea Rose is perfect in beds and borders, too.
Pruning to half height or 18 inches off the ground and the removal of old canes and dead wood in the spring will help the hybrid thrive. Canes that cross should be severed. The remaining canes should be cut one-third—more trimming is needed in colder climates. With the proper minimal care, Summer Nights Hybrid Tea Rose will be a year-round showpiece.
