Maria Theresia

Maria Theresia is a marvelous floribunda bred by Tantau in 2003. She quickly gained huge popularity because she's indestructible in every weather type, blooms forever and is exceptionally good as a cut flower. She's like Leonardo da Vinci from Meilland: A rose for people who want a carefree, beautiful rose.

Maria Theresia (named after the Austrian Empress) has medium light pink quartered blooms in clusters. They look incredibly beautiful. The plant is short and won't get taller than 90X70 cm or 3X2 feet. She's covered with blooms each flush and there are at least three to four flushes. Slowly the light pink color fades into Cream. One of the best roses for in bouquets as she keeps good for days and days.

Extremely disease resistant, rain and heat tolerant and zone 5b to 9b. For front of the border, pots and as a standard rose.

She has one drawback: She only has a light smell but I absolve her because she's so good on the other features. 

A wonderful rose
