Renica – TANrekta hybrid tea rose rooted cutting for professional grow-on

Renica offers a reliable hybrid tea framework for premium container production where flower quality and high-centred form are central to retail and reseller expectations. As a pharmaROSA® NEONATAL own-root cutting, it develops predictably from tray-rooted material into bush-trained plants with 3–5 strong canes, well suited to 5–7 L containers and onward build-up for an exclusive finished product line. Low maintenance needs and strong disease resistance support homogeneous nursery stands with limited intervention, helping to stabilise capacity planning and reduce replacement in thematic rose gardens and collection projects exposed to variable UK conditions with reliable winter hardiness for northern sites. Over time the own-root structure supports a natural progression from root establishment through shoot build-up to full ornamental performance in the third season.

Usage options

Target area	Reasoning
Premium 5–7 L container production for retail/reseller programmes	The cultivar’s exclusive positioning and focus on flower quality and form align directly with a premium container route, where uniform, upright bushes in 5–7 L pots are expected. NEONATAL own-root material supports predictable scheduling into bush-trained stock with 3–5 canes, giving a coherent look on benches for higher-value lines aimed at retail/reseller.
Cut-flower oriented specimen plants in display and trial beds	The high-centred, pointed-budded blooms and solitary flowering pattern make this variety suitable for growers building cut-flower style bushes in beds, either for direct stem harvest or as demonstrator stock. Using the recommended premium container path to establish strong bushes before fielding allows nurseries to present finished plants as an exclusive product with clear cut-rose credentials to specialist retailers.
Thematic and collection rose gardens requiring cultivar authenticity	Verified cultivar authenticity and ADR recognition support use in curated collections where name integrity and form must be dependable. Own-root NEONATAL material underpins long-term stands with renewable growth and simplified re-propagation, while the low-maintenance, disease-resistant habit reduces intervention. Bush-trained plants lifted from 5–7 L stock integrate well into thematic layouts for public-realm suppliers.
Low-intervention hedge or line plantings in nursery and show areas	Good resistance to powdery mildew, black spot and rust, combined with a generally low maintenance requirement, makes this cultivar a suitable candidate for short hedge or line plantings that need to look clean without intensive spraying. Establishing from own-root bush-trained plants enables even lines and simplifies pruning into repeat-flowering structures attractive to garden centres.
Colour-focused feature plants in exclusive mixed displays	The bicolour yellow-red effect with very good colour retention and attractive fading stages offers high visual value in premium mixed benches. Growing via the premium container route ensures sufficiently developed bushes to carry multiple large, high-centred blooms at sell-in. This suits positioning Renica as an exclusive, colour-led highlight within curated ranges for upmarket retailers.
Collection stock for cut-rose themed private-label ranges	The parentage from ‘Konfetti’ × ‘Piccadilly’ and the hybrid tea cut-flower expression support its role as a reference plant in private-label concepts themed around classic exhibition tea hybrids. Own-root NEONATAL propagation provides a repeatable base for internal stock blocks, feeding on into premium 5–7 L products that can be branded as exclusive introductions by integrator networks.
Cold-tolerant plantings in northern nurseries and demonstration sites	With hardiness down to approximately -21 °C and a rating equivalent to RHS H7, Renica is appropriate for propagation and show beds in colder UK regions where winter resilience is important for stock continuity. Establishing initially through premium containers then fielding to beds reduces loss risk, matching the needs of northern-focused wholesalers.
Medium-to-large container features for institutional and hospitality projects	The upright, dense foliage and remontant flowering make Renica suitable for step-up into larger containers (40–50 L and above) as statement pieces where repeated display-quality blooms are required through the season. Starting from own-root 5–7 L material allows controlled build-up to larger sizes with stable crowns and reduced replacement, supporting dependable supply for landscape contractors.

Technical cultivar profile

Parameter	Data
Name and registration	Hybrid tea rose from the Rosen Tantau programme; registered as TANrekta, traded as Renica hybrid tea rose TANrekta, with Rebecca accepted as the American Rose Society exhibition name.
Origin and breeding	Bred in Germany by Mathias Tantau Jr., introduced and registered in 1970; parentage is ‘Konfetti’ × ‘Piccadilly’, both established hybrid tea lines contributing classic cut-rose flower expression.
Awards and recognition	Holds ADR recognition from 1972, indicating independently verified performance standards relevant to ornamental quality and garden use at the time of testing; additional award data not provided.
Growth and structural characteristics	Upright habit reaching around 75–105 cm in height with a 45–65 cm spread; dense, slightly glossy dark green foliage and notably thorny shoots, forming a coherent hybrid tea bush structure under training.
Flower morphology	Double, large flowers with around 17–26 petals, high-centred, pointed-bud form and solitary presentation; remontant with a particularly abundant second flush, visually aligned with classical cut-flower hybrid teas.
Colour data and phenology	Bicolour yellow-red expression: pale lemon-yellow ground with warm rose-red centre, subtly blending on petal edges; colour retention is very good, with gradual cream and salmon transitions under sun and cooler conditions.
Fragrance and aroma	Fragrance strength is very weak, with scent description not provided; overall, the cultivar is selected primarily for visual flower quality rather than perfume, while offering moderate pollinator attraction despite its double form.
Hip characteristics	Occasional spherical orange-red hips form in autumn, typically around 10–14 mm in diameter; when present they contribute modest ornamental interest but are not a primary production objective.
Resistance and winter hardiness	Good resistance to powdery mildew, black spot and rust supports lower chemical input; hardy approximately to -21 to -18 °C, corresponding to RHS H7, Swedish zone 3 and USDA zone 6b, suitable for exposed UK sites.
Horticultural recommendations	Recommended for flower beds, specimen use, hedges, containers and cut flower production; maintenance needs are low. Supplied as bush-trained own-root NEONATAL cuttings, ideal for premium container routes in 5–7 L pots.
