About this rose

About Classic Woman™

About Classic Woman™ Potted Rose Bush

Rosa 'Meigroupy' PP 17,970 Classic Woman™

The Classic Woman™ hybrid tea rose, a distinguished member of the Romantica® series from the esteemed House of Meilland®, presents a vision of creamy white elegance. Its buds offer a delicate hint of pink along the edges, gradually unfurling to reveal exquisite, 5-inch blooms. These captivating flowers emit a subtle, yet pleasing, classic rose fragrance that adds to their overall charm.

Renowned for its exceptional repeat blooming, the Classic Woman™ ensures a continuous display of its pristine flowers throughout the growing season. This vigorous variety demonstrates impressive heat tolerance and exhibits strong resistance to common rose diseases, making it a reliable and relatively low-maintenance choice for gardeners. Its sturdy stems and long-lasting blooms also make it an excellent option for cut flower arrangements, highly favored by floral designers for crafting elegant bouquets.

Often likened to a cream-colored iteration of the beloved Yves Piaget® rose, Classic Woman™ evokes a nostalgic sentiment, reminiscent of the cherished roses found in a traditional grandmother's garden. This old-fashioned appeal, combined with its modern vigor and disease resistance, positions Classic Woman™ as a truly timeless beauty, perfectly suited for both classic and contemporary landscapes. Its reliable performance and exquisite floral display make it a standout selection for any rose enthusiast seeking enduring elegance and delightful fragrance.

Before planting

Keep your rose in its pot in a sunny spot and water it well while you prepare the bed. Choose a place with at least six hours of sun and soil that drains well. Water the pot thoroughly an hour before planting.

Planting your potted rose

Dig a hole twice as wide as the pot and about as deep. Ease the rose out, loosen any circling roots and set it so the top of the root ball sits level with the ground. Backfill with garden soil mixed with compost, firm gently and water deeply.

First season watering and care

Water deeply two to three times a week through the first season, more often in hot weather, letting the top inch of soil dry between waterings. Mulch keeps the roots cool. Start feeding once new growth appears, and remove spent blooms to keep the flowers coming.

I recently bought their 1 gallon and I was so happy to receive a well sized rose with seven stems! They did a really good job growing these as the stems were pretty thick.
