Rosa Olympiad (Hybrid Tea Rose)

Rose Bush planted in late June 2026 in the backyard

by the new Japanese Maple Tree in Boylston, MA.

Jenny's comments

"The plant itself is rough but I think it's because it's "established" with "decent roots" so we will see. My other roses did not make it. Already very pokey. Has stabbed both of us twice and it's not even in the ground."

About the Rosa Olympiad

A Hybrid Tea Rose

A Shrub Rose

Lightly scented Hybrid Tea Rose with large, full, high-centered, pure red flowers, 5 inches across, packed with 32 to 37 petals.

A light fruity fragrance.

Blooming in flushes from spring to early fall.

Vigorous, heat tolerant that is very disease resistant

and perfect for beds, borders or as a flowering hedge.

A great rose for cutting too.

Grows 3-5 feet tall and 2 feet wide.

Best grown in full sun, in rich, fertile and well-drained soils

with adequate moisture.

Spring Pruning: Remove old canes and dead or diseased wood and cut back canes that cross. In warmer climates, cut back the remaining canes by about one-third. In cooler areas, youll probably

find you'll have to prune a little more than that.

Winnipeg Parks Rose

Planted July 31, 2025
in the backyard by the back fence.

I think the rose bush
at the other of the flower bed is also a
Winnipeg Parks Rose.

Winnipeg Parks Rose will grow to be about 3 feet tall at maturity, with a spread of 3 feet.

This shrub should only be grown in full sunlight.

This rose is highly ornamental and will turn red in the fall. The fruits are showy red hips displayed from mid to late fall. I often deadhead the roses but will leave them from this point forward in order to benefit from the rosehips.

This bush has cherry red flowers, dark red-tipped foliage, red hips, is excellent for cutting and is

a tough, long-blooming, fragrant rose.

Birthday Roses in Massachusetts

Jenny ordered 3 bare root roses (from Jackson and Perkins) to celebrate the Twin A/Twin B birthday this year. She says they are very pokey, danger ankle biters. Colours are variations of coral, orange, pink and yellow. Names are Peace Hybrid Tea Rose, Catalina Grandilfora Rose and Cabna Hybrid Tea Rose.

Catalina Grandiflora Rose

July 4, 2022

This Red Rose was supposed to be a Catalina Grandiflora Rose but? not quite the right color? Catalina Roses are either Yellow or Salmon Pink

Maybe we can call it a Canadian Catalina?

Ranunculus

Ranunculus blooming in Boylston. The first place we saw and fell in love with Ranunculus was on a field trip to the Carlsbad Flower Fields in California in about 2010. https://www.theflowerfields.com/

Ranunculus are cool season flowers that grow best in spring-like temperatures of about 55°F. In warm climates (zones 8-10), the corms are planted in the fall so they will bloom in late winter and early spring. Plant ranunculus in beds and borders, cutting gardens and containers. They are good companions for other spring flowers such as primroses, pansies and larkspur.

In climates where ranunculus are not winter hardy (zones 4-7), the corms are usually planted in late winter or very early spring for flowers in early summer. In these areas, home gardeners often grow ranunculus in containers rather than in the garden. Containers make it easier to control light and soil moisture.
