Since the thread title is just 'Tea Roses', I'll post about a few of the original Old Tea Roses brought over from China.

Such as Rosa x 'Hume's Blush' which arrived in England in 1810.

...and Rosa x 'Park's Yellow' in 1824.

Are these really still the same cultivars more or less 200 years later? Who knows...

The first official Hybrid Tea came later: Rosa x 'La France' found in a cultivation in 1867.

Alright, history lesson over, such as it is...

Why is The Tea Rose called a "tea rose"?

 

[Logan]

They originally came from China and was called that because the fragrance was like tea when it was poured.

 

[Mike Allen]

Never heard of that one.
