Click Here to Buy a Peace Rose The first Hybrid Tea (Rosa La France) was introduced in 1867 but the Hybrid Tea did not become its own class of rose until 1880. La France was followed into the marketplace by numerous other Large Flowered roses through the turn of the century. The gardening public did not flock to buy them. Then, in 1900, a near-yellow flower on a shiny-leaved shrub appeared. Soleil d'Or made the class fashionable and elevated it to the status it enjoys today. There are many classes or types of roses but the Hybrid Teas only real rival for most popular is the Floribunda or Cluster Flowered rose. Hybrid Tea rose bushes are bred for exhibition above all else. This is the reason for the plants' tall, upright growth habit. Each perfect rose flower is balanced at the tip of a long,sturdy stem. These long stems come in handy when cutting the blooms which are generally excellent cut flowers. The high-centered, fully double, often richly fragrant blooms come in a multitude of hues and can measure 5 inches across. What more could you want for the exhibition table or the vase?
