SCH73042

The rose SCH73042 is a classic tea-hybrid florist rose developed in the Netherlands. Flowers are large, 10–12 cm in diameter, with a high-centered form and 45–55 petals. Flower color is purplish-magenta-cherry, lightening toward the center to rose-magenta hues. Flowers typically grow singly on each stem, making this variety especially attractive for cutting and bouquet use. The rose has no or very faint fragrance.

Bushes are compact, with upright and sturdy stems ranging from 50 to 90 cm in length. Leaves are medium-sized, green, semi-glossy with leathery texture and serrated edges. Thorns are rare and solitary on stems. The rose shows good disease resistance, including moderate resistance to black spot and powdery mildew, as well as good resistance to gray mold and rust.

Flowering is abundant and continuous, lasting from summer until frost in open ground. Flowers remain on the plant for about 10–12 days and last 9–10 days when cut, making this rose ideal for floristry and private gardens. Due to its beauty, form, and long-lasting blooms, SCH73042 is perfect for cultivation in greenhouses and for enhancing garden compositions.
