BUDATÉTÉNY – peach-pink hybrid tea rose – Márk
Bring a touch of coastal refreshment to your garden with BUDATÉTÉNY, a peach‑pink hybrid tea rose that feels at home in breezy, seaside conditions and rides out strong winds with reassuring stability. Its own‑root form gives long‑term endurance, quietly building from root establishment to lush top growth so that, over three seasons, you see it progress from settling in to delivering its full ornamental value. Large, high‑centred blooms of soft peach‑pink open repeatedly through the season, offering reliable colour for family gardens and small coastal verandas alike. Medium care needs and good heat and drought tolerance make this variety a practical choice for busy gardeners who want impact without constant intervention. Ideal both in beds and in generous containers of at least 40–50 litres, its upright habit and glossy foliage bring structured elegance that pairs effortlessly with shingle, grasses and sea‑themed planting. Enjoy cut flowers for the table, or simply relax in their company, as their fresh, medium‑strength fragrance adds gentle pleasure to everyday moments and their semi‑double form offers modest wildlife interest.
