WaterThe Hybrid Tea Rose should be watered deeply and thoroughly to encourage deep root development. In general, this entails providing the roses with 1 to 2 gallons of water per week. Watering frequency should be adjusted according to the climate; in hot, dry weather, you may need to water every two or three days, while in cooler climates or during rainy seasons, you may water less frequently. The method involves watering at the base of the plant to keep the foliage dry and prevent fungal diseases. It's crucial not to let the soil dry out completely, but also to avoid waterlogging which can lead to root rot.
LightHybrid Tea Roses thrive best in full sunlight, requiring a minimum of six hours of direct, unfiltered sunlight per day. The ideal spot for planting them would be in a garden area that receives morning sun and is protected from the intense heat of the late afternoon sun. They can tolerate some light shade, but too much shade can result in fewer blooms and weak growth.
TemperatureHybrid Tea Roses are hardy in a range of temperatures but perform best when the daytime temperature is between 65 and 70 degrees Fahrenheit. They can survive in temperatures as low as 20 degrees Fahrenheit during dormancy in winter but should be protected from cold winds and extreme cold snaps. The ideal growing conditions for these roses include warm days and cool nights.
PruningPruning Hybrid Tea Roses is necessary to promote vigorous growth, enhance air circulation, and maintain a pleasing shape. The best time for heavy pruning is in early spring, just as the buds begin to swell. Remove dead, damaged, or diseased canes, and thin out the center to allow sunlight to penetrate. Pruning is typically done annually, but deadheading spent blossoms can be done throughout the blooming season to encourage more blooms.

Life cycleThe life cycle of the Rosa Lions International, commonly known as a hybrid tea rose, begins with germination, where the plant starts to grow from a seed into a seedling under suitable conditions of soil, temperature, and moisture. As the seedling matures, it develops into a young plant with a basic root system and foliage, entering the vegetative stage where it focuses on growth and leaf production. When it reaches maturity, it enters the flowering stage, during which the hybrid tea rose produces its distinctive, fragrant flowers that may come in various colors depending on the cultivar; this usually occurs seasonally in late spring through fall. After pollination, the flowers will produce hips, which contain seeds, representing the reproductive stage where potential new plants can be generated. Once fertilized, these seeds can be dispersed by different means such as animals, wind, or human intervention to begin the cycle anew. Over the years, the plant goes through periods of active growth and dormancy, typically aligning with seasonal changes, until it eventually reaches the end of its lifespan and dies, completing the life cycle.
PropogationPropogation time
Spring-Early Summer
Propogation: The Rosa Lions International 'Frycharm' (PBR) (HT), commonly known as a variety of Hybrid Tea Rose, is typically propagated by cuttings. This method involves taking a cutting of about 6 to 8 inches (15 to 20 cm) from a healthy, disease-free parent plant. The best time to take cuttings is during the late winter or early spring when the plant is somewhat dormant but getting ready for the growth season. For successful rooting, the lower leaves of the cutting are removed, and the cut end is often dipped in a rooting hormone before being planted in a well-draining soil mixture. The container with the cutting should then be placed in a warm, bright area, but not in direct sunlight, to encourage rooting, making sure to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.
