About this plant
Rosa 'Paris de Yves St. Laurent' is a hybrid tea rose showing large cupped blooms in pink with full, rich form. Flowers carry a mild, sweet fragrance and appear in flushes from late spring through fall, displayed on long elegant stems and glossy dark green foliage that resists disease. The blooms stand well in bouquets and garden settings, offering lasting color and refined texture that holds up in warm weather.
Introduced by Alain Meilland in France in 1994, this rose is appreciated for its strong disease resistance and vase life. 'Paris de Yves St. Laurent' blends ornamental elegance, floral durability, and repeated flowering for enduring garden appeal.
Planting & care
Roses reward a sunny, open site with at least six hours of direct light, good air movement, and well-drained soil rich in organic matter. Water deeply and less often, soaking the root zone while keeping the leaves dry, and mulch with two to three inches of compost or shredded bark held back from the canes. Feed repeat-blooming roses in early spring as growth starts and again after the first flush, then prune in late winter to remove dead or crossing canes and open the center. Long, straight stems make hybrid teas ideal for cutting, so give each plant room and airflow.
Where to see it
This plant can be seen at the Portland International Rose Test Garden.
