Rosa Tiffany Victory ('Poulhi008') | Hybrid Tea Patio Rose

Rose Tiffany Victory (hybrid tea)

Product Image
Big Hybrid Tea-style flowers on a genuinely compact plant are the standout features of this rose. The very full, medium-pink blooms are packed with petals and carry an intense Old Rose and Damask fragrance, giving you the flower form and perfume of a much larger rose without needing the same amount of space.

Reaching around 50cm (1ft 8in) high with a similar spread, Rosa ‘Tiffany Victory’ forms a neat, bushy patio rose. Its compact size makes it particularly useful for smaller gardens and spaces where a conventional Hybrid Tea would be too large, while repeat flowering from June through to October keeps fresh pink blooms appearing over a long season.

The generously petalled flowers are also good for cutting, so the rich fragrance can be enjoyed indoors as well as outside. Despite its small stature, this tidy rose produces substantial flowers, making it a particularly useful choice for gardeners who want a scented rose for cutting but have limited growing space.

It also grows well in a suitably large container on a sunny patio. Choose a substantial, thick-walled pot, such as terracotta, and use a loam-based compost such as John Innes to provide a stable growing environment.

All our roses are grown in an open field and then dug up when the weather conditions are right in October or November. Some suppliers send out their roses as 'bare root' plants (i.e. without pots or compost), but we pot ours up as it helps to keep the roots hydrated and in good condition. As they are dormant throughout the winter, they will not produce any new roots until spring, so don't be surprised if the compost falls away from the roots when you take them out of their pots.

The roses can be kept in their pots throughout the winter provided they are kept well fed and watered, however ideally they should be planted out as soon as possible. They will already have been cut back so no further pruning will be required, apart from snipping off any tips that have died back. Routine pruning can begin in late winter the year after planting.

How to care for Rosa Tiffany Victory ('Poulhi008'):

When planting patio roses, choose a frost-free spell if doing so in winter and make sure the soil is workable. Dig a hole roughly twice as wide as the roots and mix in plenty of composted organic matter; a top-dressing of general-purpose fertiliser or a dose of Rose Rootgrow can help encourage strong root development and reduce replant disease.

Remove the rose from its pot and gently spread out the roots, placing the plant in the hole so the bud union sits at soil level—use a flat tool, like a spade handle, to check the height. Backfill carefully, firm the soil gently, and water well to settle the plant.

For potting up, use a similar approach with a suitably sized container and free-draining potting mix, such as a loam-based John Innes, ensuring the bud union is level with the soil surface. Keep the container in a sunny spot and water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist.

Feed all roses with a specialist rose fertiliser each spring and apply a mulch of composted farmyard manure, keeping it away from stems. Little pruning is needed; in late winter or early spring, remove any dead, damaged, or weak stems and cut back over-long stems to fit the space. Deadhead spent flowers as they fade to encourage more blooms.
