Technical cultivar profile
| Parameter |
Data |
| Name and registration |
Hybrid tea rose Best Impression® (TAN04247), collection hybrid tea rose, commercial type hybrid tea, registered and introduced 2012, verified authenticity (12 October 2025) under pharmaROSA® NEONATAL product code [662] 20-762. |
| Origin and breeding |
Bred by Hans Jürgen Evers, Rosen Tantau, Germany (breeding year 2004), with parentage not provided; introduced and initially distributed by Rosen Tantau in 2012 as a premium hybrid tea garden and cut‑flower type. |
| Awards and recognition |
Not provided: no specific competition, collector or lifetime awards are recorded in the current data set, so selection should be based on structural, floral and production traits rather than on show results. |
| Growth and structural characteristics |
Bushy, upright plants 90–120 cm high with 45–65 cm spread, dense mid‑green, slightly glossy foliage and moderate prickliness; weak self‑cleaning so spent blooms typically require manual removal under professional maintenance. |
| Flower morphology |
Medium‑sized, solitary, very double blooms with 40+ petals, remontant with an abundant second flowering; classic hybrid tea, high‑centred, pointed bud morphology reminiscent of cut‑flower exhibition types, primarily ornamental in garden use. |
| Colour data and phenology |
Vibrant cherry‑red base with cream‑white stripes and spots (RHS 53A outer, 155C inner); stripes broaden as blooms age, colour fades towards soft pink and pastel marbling before petal fall; colour retention moderate with clear staged transitions. |
| Fragrance and aroma |
Medium‑strength, sweet fruity fragrance clearly noticeable at close range; very double flowers limit pollen access, so pollinator value is low and ornamental and sensory appeal for people is the main functional attribute. |
| Hip characteristics |
Hip set is expected to be limited due to the very double flowers; if formed, hips are small, egg‑shaped, 8–13 mm in diameter, with orange‑red colouring around RHS 41A, adding minor seasonal interest rather than production value. |
| Resistance and winter hardiness |
Rated to approximately −21 to −18 °C (H7, Swedish Zone 3, USDA 6b), with moderate resistance to powdery mildew, black spot and rust; heat and drought tolerance data are not provided and occasional plant protection is recommended. |
| Horticultural recommendations |
Suited to flower beds, specimen planting and garden cut‑flower use; medium maintenance with weak self‑cleaning means regular deadheading; best routed as bush‑trained, 3–5 cane premium container production in 5–7 L pots for exclusive retail. |
