Hybrid Tea Rose
Rosa Alec's Red

Masses of luxurious, fully double, crimson to cherry red blooms are produced continuously from dark purple buds between July and September. This is an outstanding hybrid tea bush rose that’s blessed with an impressive list of virtues. It is well-foliated with healthy, finely-toothed, glossy mid-green leaves and bears large, elaborate, globular blooms that possess a deep and heavy damask perfume. Combining well with early flowering perennials and bulbs, it’s perfect for an open, sunny site, displaying a strong resistance to diseases such as black spot and mildew. The blooms hold their colour well with age and cope well with tough conditions including rain and windy weather. We’d recommend dead heading faded flowers immediately to encourage a fresh flush of blooms.

  • Position: Full sun

  • Soil: A moist, yet well-drained, fertile and humus-rich soil

  • Rate of Growth: Fast growing

  • Flowering Period: July to September

  • Other Features: The blooms make excellent cut flowers

  • Garden Care: Before planting, top-growth should be reduced to an outward facing bud approximately 15-20cm from the main stem and thick roots should be shortened to 25cm. It should be planted during a frost-free period and lots of well-rotted, organic matter should be incorporated into the planting hole. We’d recommend feeding with a balanced liquid fertiliser once a year in spring
