This red rose is perfect. With hybrid tea roses prune the blooms once they have finished blooming just above the 3rd or 4th leaf below the spent bloom to bloom repeatedly during the summer.
 This has a strong rose scent that can be smelled from several feet away on a hot summer day.  Mr Lincoln does exceedingly well in Texas.
 This rose will need some pruning in that it can become overly tall and suckers need to be removed.

Hybrid Teas Do Better in Threes

It is always best to purchase the highest grade roses with strong healthy canes to create a balanced and even shrub.  Even so, placing hybrid tea roses in groups of three will create the maximum visual impact.
