It can be hard to pick the best thing about the Double Delight Hybrid Tea Rose because everything about this plant is amazing. Large blooms span 5 inches across and make a big statement. The flowers have cream-colored centers that gradually fade to red near the border. This rose bush is prolific, so you will enjoy several rounds of flowers from spring through fall. If that isn’t enough, the flowers also have a lovely, spicy scent.
The medium-green foliage has a matte-like finish and provides a nice contrast against the bicolor blooms. The greenery provides consistent color between bloom cycles. This rose will be at home in beds, borders, hedges, or containers. Trim the flowers to display in arrangements and enjoy the fragrance indoors. Butterflies will visit the blooms for an added benefit.
Double Delight Hybrid Tea Rose Care
The Double Delight Hybrid Tea Rose has rather typical care needs for a rose bush. Plant it in full sun in moist but well-drained soil. Depending on rainfall, this tea rose will need about an inch of water weekly. Feed this plant every few weeks in the spring and summer to keep the flowers coming. Use a fertilizer formulated for roses or a balanced plant food.
Prune this rose bush in late winter or early spring before new growth appears. Remove dead or damaged canes, as well as branches that cross. Cut back small branches to encourage more vigorous growth.
Double Delight Hybrid Tea Rose Spacing
The Double Delight Hybrid Tea Rose stands 3 to 4 feet tall and 2 to 3 feet wide. Space plants 3 feet apart when creating a hedge or mass planting for a uniform look while still allowing air to circulate around the foliage.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability).

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
