A typical David Austin showstopper, Teasing Georgia Rose is an English climbing rose consisting of 5-inch, double flowers with ultra-soft petals, fading from honey yellow to buttermilk from the center outwards. The blooms are supported by attractive imperial-green foliage that is vigorous and disease resistant. The cut flower-quality blooms appear from spring through autumn, this ornamental’s allure can be seen inside the home as well as outside in the yard. Its traditional tea perfume captivates pollinators such as bees and butterflies. This perennial, also known as Rosa Teasing Georgia™, 'P/27/88', 'AUSbaker', and 'TG2476', reaches a maximum height of 4 to 8 feet and spread of 3 to 4 feet and is cold hardy in zones 5 - 8.
An English original, Teasing Georgia Rose emanates a moderate tea fragrance. Bushy and climbing, this showy shrub can be trained to grow up a trellis or pole, or can be heavily pruned to maintain an average shrub-like appearance. Disease resistant and low maintenance, this vigorous perennial encounters few obstacles. Add this selection to a border or bed where its beauty can be regularly enjoyed.
Teasing Georgia Rose Care
Place Teasing Georgia Rose in a location that gets full sun. An easterly location with early morning sun is ideal. Plant it in a hole that is approximately the size of the rootball. The soil should be rich, moist, and well draining. Provide one to two inches of water per week when the top two inches of soil are dry. Conducting a moisture check prior to watering helps prevent the development of fungal disease. To encourage leaf growth during the spring, apply fertilizer with more nitrogen. Once this lovely shrub begins blooming, however, apply a fertilizer with less nitrogen such as an 8-12-4 formula once or twice monthly.
Teasing Georgia Rose is a repeat bloomer. Prune it in late winter/early spring. Cut back side stems to a few inches. Also trim any dead, diseased, damaged stems. Encourage horizontal versus vertical growth to increase the number of blooms. During the blooming season, deadhead spent flowers.
Teasing Georgia Rose Spacing
Space this profuse bloomer 4 to 5 feet apart. Teasing Georgia Rose provides an excellent focal point when planted as a specimen. Planted en masse, the effect of its color is multiplied. Plant Teasing Georgia Rose in borders beds/hedges/containers. Good companion plants include coneflower, Japanese anemone, and marigolds.

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.
