Why We Love It

Cut Martha Stewart Hybrid Tea Rose bloom on the table

Premium Cut Flowers: This rose produces stunning, apricot-pink blooms packed with over 100 ruffled petals. They are held on strong, sturdy stems, making them the ultimate choice for creating sophisticated bouquets right from your backyard.

Refreshing Citrus Fragrance: Not only is it beautiful to look at, but it also carries a lovely, refreshing citrus scent that will fill your "outdoor room" or kitchen when brought inside.

Superior Heat Tolerance: While many Hybrid Tea roses can struggle in intense summer heat, the Martha Stewart™ rose was bred to perform reliably from Zone 5 all the way to Zone 11.

Disease Resistant & Handsome: It features deep, glossy green foliage that stays clean and healthy all season long, thanks to its high resistance to common issues like black spot and mildew.

Quick Care Tips

Close up of large blooms of the Martha Stewart Hybrid Tea Rose

Sun: Thrives in full sun. To get those large, high-centered blooms and keep the foliage healthy, aim for at least 6–8 hours of direct sunlight every day.

Soil: Prefers rich, loamy, and well-draining soil. If you have heavy clay, mixing in plenty of organic compost will help it settle in beautifully.

Water: Provide consistent moisture, especially during its first growing season. Focus watering at the base of the plant to keep the leaves dry and happy.

Pruning: Like most Hybrid Teas, it benefits from an upright, vase-like shape. Prune in early spring before new growth appears to remove any dead wood and encourage strong, flower-bearing branches.
