Hybrid Tea Rose 'Diana, Princess of Wales' Rosa
Hybridized by Zary, 1998
Additional info: (PP11482, aka Elegant Lady, JACshaq)
This is by far the most beautiful rose I have ever had. Butter cream base of the petal leads out to varying degrees of pale pink-each rose a little different. The scent is so very light and absolutely wonderful. I have found that my Jackson and Perkin roses (all roses) respond well to enriching the soil w/the Ted Mill's Rose food, Rose's Pride rose spray (for bugs) and Rose's pride fertilizer. The Mill's rose food and Rose's Pride fertilizer is granular and is used only once every 6 weeks. My roses have gone crazy w/blooms and growth with the above treatment; they seem to love where I have put them w/a good 6 hours of morning sun and one or two of afternoon in our hot and humid East Tennessee summer weather.
That is an outstanding rose! I want one! I've had a horrible time with my roses this year. They just aren't growing. I thought it would be a good year since I only lost one over the winter and I usually lose many more. I will try your "green thumb" aides to see if I can get mine healthier. But 'Dianna' has any rose I have beat! Thanks for posting.
