Futao Rose: Low-Maintenance 2024 Chinese Cut Rose with Striped Beauty & Rain Resistance
Futao Rose—China’s 2024 release by breeder Jiang Zhengzhi—is a hassle-free choice for home gardeners and florists alike, thanks to its 90 cm height, 8 cm striped blooms, dynamic color shifts, and rain-resistant petals. Offering white-pink striped flowers that deepen to red tones in warmer weather (sometimes hiding the stripes), it delivers unique, long-lasting beauty with minimal effort—ideal for beginners or anyone seeking resilient, eye-catching roses.
Its 90 cm compact, upright form fits perfectly in garden borders, containers, or cutting gardens, with sturdy stems that make arranging effortless. As a 2024 Chinese-bred variety, it’s designed for performance: the striped pattern stays clear in cool weather, while the deep red hue in warm weather adds versatility to displays. The rain-resistant petals mean you can enjoy its beauty even during damp spells, and the nearly scentless nature works great for indoor spaces or scent-sensitive events. It blooms profusely from spring to fall, providing a steady supply of stems for home decor, gifts, or floral projects.
Growing Futao Rose is simple. Plant in full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil, water when the top 5 cm of soil dries out, and apply a balanced fertilizer monthly during the growing season. A quick late-winter trim to shape the bush and simple deadheading after each flush keep blooms coming. For extended vase life, trim stems at a 45° angle, remove submerged leaves, and change water every 2–3 days. Whether you’re a home gardener or a florist, this 2024 Chinese gem proves that unique, resilient blooms can be low-maintenance and long-lasting.
