Scentsation – Hybrid Tea Rose
Scentsation is a Hybrid Tea that delivers precisely what its name promises – a rose where the fragrance is the defining characteristic. The blooms are a warm and beautiful combination of creamy gold and soft peach-pink, large and perfectly formed in classic Hybrid Tea style, but it is the very strong fragrance that elevates Scentsation above its peers. The scent is warm, rich, and penetrating, making this a particularly rewarding rose to plant near a seating area or path.

✂️ Pruning Guide
Prune in late February. For a compact, bushy plant, hard prune all main stems back to around 15 cm (6 inches) above the bud union – this produces strong new growth and the best flower size. For a larger, more established plant with greater spread, prune back by approximately half instead, removing any dead, diseased, or crossing stems. Either way, always cut to an outward-facing bud to maintain an open shape. Deadhead spent flowers through summer to encourage continuous repeat-flowering into autumn.
🌱 Planting & Care
Plant in well-prepared soil enriched with organic matter. We recommend adding Empathy Rootgrow mycorrhizal fungi at planting to establish a strong root system quickly. Water regularly during the first growing season. Feed with a specialist rose fertiliser in spring and again after the first flush of flowers.

Shipping & Returns
Delivery cost £3.49 per order. Delivery 2-3 working days.
We use DPD for all our Bush rose deliveries & DX Freight for all standard roses, upon dispatch you will receive an email confirming your rose has been shipped and providing you updates through delivery confirming estimated time of arrival.
Unfortunately due to updated plant health requirements following Brexit we are only able to ship to Mainland (including Isle of White) UK excluding Northern Ireland.
Our standard delivery is 1 - 3 days from point of order although may be extended in busy periods. We do not post roses on Fridays. As our roses are live plants we sometimes delay sending in extreme cold or heat to avoid them perishing due to extended delivery times.
Bare root roses on pre-order will be dispatched in the Autumn / Winter, any orders placed not on pre-order will be dispatched on a Tuesday.
How will my rose arrive
We have specially designed boxes to ensure any roses bought from us will travel safely to your home.
Bare root roses are dispatched between October and February each year. We do allow pre-orders of bare root roses and will send them out once the stock is ready. It may be the case that some orders are fulfilled earlier than others depending on which varieties were on order.
Our new crop of potted roses are dispatched from October and will arrive as newly potted bare root plants. These are ok to be planted out straight away or you can wait till the rose has started rooting in and plant in the spring. Sending out these potted roses ensures you receive the best product as the rose remains well in moist compost through the journey and when planting you have a pot of our special blend of compost to get your rose off to the best of start.
In spring our roses will still be very small to look at but will have rooted into the pot and will be showing strong young growth.
May - September we will do our best to send out roses in flower or in bud but this will depend on the growing season as we may have to cut back the plant to keep them healthy with fresh growth.

The problem with the review is it's a work in progress this beautiful rose arrived in a poor condition the box was crushed and both blooms were. broken off it looked in poor shape but I did not want to send her back after a period of TLC she is coming back to her health which is testament to the quality of the rows in the first instance what I would say of the carrier is that they have no respect for living plants.
With my best regards Howell.
Good quality plant, arrived well packed and in a timely manner.
It’s a beautiful rose I have bought 2 before one on my last house and one as a gift , and a NEW one for my new house.
It’s a prolific flowerer and has a wonderful scent
These plants were very well packaged for dispatch. They were in good sized pots with chips around the top.
They have been winter pruned and are only short branches at the moment so no flowers or plant to review yet.
Delighted with all the roses received. Arrived when stated, excellently packed. Would definitely recommend Henry Street.
I have ordered previously from Henry Street and was very happy to go back to them for a further order.I rang them wanting to order over the phone and because I had some questions.I was promised a call back in 15 minutes but it never happened.When I rang the next day and told of this the lady answering was less than amicable and I was asked why I had not ordered on line.The conversation was very short!The roses however were of the usual excellent standard and the service in respect of delivery time first class.would not hesitate to use them again but will avoid ringing them up!
