  • circleLife cycle

    The life of the 'Hansestadt Rostock' rose, also known as 'Tan04603' (PBR) (F), begins with germination, where the seed sprouts and starts to develop roots and shoots when exposed to suitable conditions of moisture and warmth. The seedling grows into a young plant with characteristic leaves and thorns, gradually developing a strong root system. As it matures, the rose bush enters a vegetative state, focusing on leaf growth and the development of strong stems. The plant then reaches maturity and begins its reproductive phase, characterized by the blooming of its trademark fragrant flowers, typically large and double in form with a vivid blend of pink and apricot colors. After pollination, the flowers produce rose hips (seed pods) which contain seeds, completing the reproductive cycle. Finally, the rose plant enters a period of dormancy during colder months, reducing its metabolic activity to conserve energy, only to emerge again in the spring with new growth and repeating the cycle.

      Spring-Early Summer

    • The Rosa Hansestadt Rostock, more commonly known as a type of rose, is most effectively propagated through the method of softwood cuttings. This method involves taking cuttings from the rose bush during the late spring or early summer when the new growth is still flexible but has started to mature. Cuttings should typically be about 6 to 8 inches long (15 to 20 centimeters) and include several sets of leaves. The lower leaves are removed, and the cut end can be dipped in rooting hormone to encourage root development. These prepared cuttings are then planted in a mixture of sand and peat or any well-draining potting medium and kept under high humidity and indirect light until roots have developed, which usually takes a few weeks. It is important to keep the soil moist but not waterlogged to prevent rot. Once rooted, the new rose plants can be gradually acclimatized to less humid conditions and eventually transplanted into the garden.
