Plant Guide

Rosa 'Paul Gauguin'

Hybrid tea rose with healthy mid-dark green foliage, flowering in flushes throughout the season. Flowers in warm red tonings, brushed with white. Stems and thorns are subtly shaded with dark red.

Registration name: Rosa 'JACdebu'. Bred by Jack E. Christensen (USA, 1992). The rose registered as Rosa 'DELstrichoc' (bred in France by Delbard) is also known as Rosa 'Paul Gauguin' and produces multi-coloured flowers in shades of cream, yellow, orange and coral.

Prefers a sunny position in any well-draining soil with a generous amount of organic matter. Fertilise in early spring and again in early summer. Dead-head during the flowering season and prune in winter. 

Gorgeous 'frivolous' rose for beds or borders as a single specimen or in groups. The beautiful colourings more than make up for the lack of scent. For a striking and somewhat unusual colour combination, plant Rosa 'Paul Gauguin' next to Loropetalum chinense 'Burgundy'.
