WaterHybrid Tea Roses, like the Rosa 'Hanne', should be watered deeply but infrequently, encouraging their deep root growth. Typically, watering once a week with about 1 inch of water (approximately 0.6 gallons per square yard) is sufficient, but during hot, dry spells, you may need to water twice a week. The goal is to moisten the soil to a depth of about 12 to 18 inches. Avoid overhead watering to reduce the risk of leaf diseases, and instead, use a soaker hose or drip irrigation to target the base of the plant. Always check the soil moisture before watering; it should be moist but not waterlogged.
LightHybrid Tea Roses require full sun, which means they need at least 6 hours of direct sunlight a day. The best spot for Rosa 'Hanne' is in a location where it can receive morning sun, which is cooler and less intense, and where the plant is protected from the harsh afternoon sun, if possible. Avoid planting your rose in dappled shade or too much afternoon heat which can stress the plant.
TemperatureThe ideal temperature range for Hybrid Tea Roses like Rosa 'Hanne' is between 65°F and 75°F, which encourages optimal growth and flowering. They can survive minimum temperatures of around 20°F, but winter protection might be necessary in zones that experience frequent freezes. Maximum temperatures should ideally not exceed 90°F for extended periods as extreme heat can stress the plant and hamper bloom production.
PruningHybrid Tea Roses like Rosa 'Hanne' require pruning to maintain their shape, encourage airflow, and promote vigorous blooms. Prune in early spring when the buds begin to swell, removing dead or diseased wood and thinning out crowded areas. Cut back remaining canes by about one-third to one-half to encourage new growth. Deadheading, or the removal of spent flowers, should be done throughout the blooming season to encourage more blooms.
CleaningNot needed
SoilThe best soil mix for the hybrid tea rose, commonly known as the Rose 'Hanne', should be well-draining with a loamy composition, enriched with organic matter such as compost or aged manure. A soil pH between 6.0 to 6.5 is ideal for healthy growth and bloom production.
RepottingHybrid tea roses, like the Rose 'Hanne', are typically not repotted as they are usually planted directly in the ground. If grown in containers, repotting every 2 to 3 years or when the plant has outgrown its pot is sufficient.
Humidity & MistingHybrid tea roses, such as the Rose 'Hanne', prefer moderate humidity levels. Normal outdoor humidity is generally adequate, while avoiding overly humid conditions that can promote fungal diseases.
Suitable locationsIndoor
Place Rose 'Hanne' in a sunny spot and maintain consistent care.
Outdoor
Plant in well-draining soil, full sun, and water regularly.

Life cycleThe life of a Rosa 'Hanne' (Hybrid Tea Rose) begins with a dormant period, where the plant rests as a bare root or pruned bush during winter. Seed germination is not common for cultivated roses like 'Hanne', as they are typically propagated by cuttings or grafting. Upon planting, the rose enters a vegetative stage, developing a strong root system and foliage in spring. The growth phase continues with the formation of buds, which then bloom into the characteristic large, fragrant flowers of 'Hanne' roses from late spring to early summer, often continuing in cycles until fall. After the flowering peak, roses may produce hips (seed pods), but these are often removed in garden cultivation to encourage more blooms. As temperatures drop, the rose enters a period of dormancy once again to conserve energy for the next growing season.
PropogationPropogation time
Early Spring
Propogation: The best time to propagate a Rosa 'Hanne', commonly known as a Hybrid Tea Rose, is typically in late winter or early spring, just before the new growth begins. One popular method for propagating these roses is through semi-hardwood cuttings. To do this, a cutting with several buds is taken, ideally from the current year's growth. The lower leaves are removed, and the cut end is dipped in rooting hormone to encourage root development. The cutting is then planted in a well-draining soil mixture and kept moderately moist. Ensuring high humidity, often by covering with a plastic bag or dome, will help the cutting to establish. It is crucial to keep the cutting out of direct sunlight to prevent overheating and to maintain a consistent temperature. With proper care, the cutting will develop roots within several weeks to a few months, at which point it can be gradually acclimated to outdoor conditions.
