MISTER LINCOLN® HYBRID TEA ROSE
Rosa Mister Lincoln® is widely considered the gold standard of red roses, legendary for its deep, velvety crimson color and an overwhelming, classic damask fragrance that can perfume an entire garden. Since its introduction in 1964, it has remained one of the most popular Hybrid Tea roses in the world. The blooms are large and high-centered, often reaching 5 inches across, and are held proudly on long, sturdy stems that make them world-class for cutting and floral arrangements.
The ideal spot for Mister Lincoln® rose is a location with full sun (at least 6 to 8 hours) and rich, organic, well-drained soil. Unlike the more mounded shrub roses, Mister Lincoln® has a stately, tall, and upright growth habit, frequently reaching 5 feet in height. This verticality makes it perfect as a focal point in the back of a rose bed or planted near a window or walkway where its incredible scent can be easily enjoyed. The foliage is a dark, matte green with a leathery texture that provides a strong contrast to the saturated red of the petals.
While Mister Lincoln® is a vigorous grower, as a traditional Hybrid Tea, it does appreciate a bit more attention than modern shrub varieties. It is generally hardy, but providing good air circulation and consistent watering at the base of the plant will help maintain its best appearance.
