CHATEAU MYRTILLE – Hybrid tea rose rooted cutting
Premium own-root CHATEAU MYRTILLE offers a distinctive colour signature and exhibition-grade flower form as tray-grown propagation material, ideal for scaling an exclusive hybrid tea line with low-intervention maintenance and verified cultivar authenticity. Supplied bush-trained on 3–5 framework canes, it supports a consistent premium-container route into 5–7 L and onward to 40–50 litre showpieces for thematic rose gardens and curated retail assortments, with own-root plants maturing from roots in year one, structural shoots in year two and full ornamental value from year three. Its resistant foliage and H7 hardiness help underpin predictable quality for nursery networks serving regions where winters and wind exposure demand reliable structure, while the remontant flowering and mild, tea-like fragrance enable versatile positioning in exclusive finished products for professional growers, nursery wholesalers and project-led collections.
