Daring Spirit Hybrid Tea Rose UNROOTED Fresh Cuttings 5-8" Long 3 Stems
The fresh cuttings from a 5-year-old fantastic and stunning Daring Spirit Hybrid Tea Rose. The rose is disease resistant and vigorous.
Jackson and Perkins is proud to introduce Daring Spirit, an impossibly painted hybrid tea with carmine and white tones in combinations like no other rose you've ever seen. The rapberry red base is striped, flecked, and splashed with pink and white accents in wild arrangements. The chaotic patterning makes every bloom its own unique masterpiece. A single flower is the perfect centerpiece for any vase.
As if the coloration weren't attention-getting enough, this over-achiever sets 25 to 30 petals, spreads up to 5 inches wide, and releases a spicy and intoxicating fragrance. Taking the classic hybrid tea form, the beautiful blooms look picture perfect, held singly on long stems. The scent is moderately strong and a complex mixture of spicy and sweet that demands a second (and third . . . and fourth) sniff. The habit is handsome, too—5 feet high and 4 feet wide, with dark, glossy foliage that bears a fine shade of burgundy when it first appears in spring.
Plant Daring Spirit in a sunny spot with well-drained soil. Water the roots early in the day rather than using overhead watering. In early spring, prune the canes to remove dead or diseased wood and reduce the overall height by about half (or just ⅓ in warmer climates). Take care of Daring Spirit, and this Hybrid Tea will take care of you with a one-of-a-kind bloomshow that will make you the envy of every gardener on the block.
