 Hybrid Teas offer very beautiful flowers whose form is  considered
the ideal of the classic long-stemmed modern rose. High-centered buds make hybrid teas
beautiful indeed at the bud and slightly open stage. However, there is a price to pay for
hybrid teas as a class are not attractive plants, upright in growth, moving towards
lankiness. While most hybrid teas are not at their best in the mixed border, a bed
dedicated to these roses, especially massing several or many plants of one variety, can be
a stunning sight. Hybrid teas do repeat bloom, offering us more than one season to enjoy
the magnificent blooms. Despite the stiff growth habit, if you enjoy beautiful flowers and
wonderful fragrance, do include hybrid teas in the garden - preferably in their own bed.Hybrid Teas, while considered modern roses, have been around a long time. La France, the first hybrid tea, was introduced in 1867. Other Roses by Class Species Gallica Damask Alba China Centifolia/Moss Tea Roses Noisette Portland Bourbon H.
