TINEKE – white hybrid tea rose – Boerlage
Step out to your front garden after rain and find balance in the cool white blooms of TINEKE, a statuesque hybrid tea rose designed for modern city plots where space is precious yet impact matters even in humidity-prone, fungus-pressured areas by the coast. Its tall, upright structure carries large, high-centred flowers ideal for cutting, bringing a sense of poise indoors as well as outdoors. Planted in a generous border or a 40–50 litre container, this own-root rose establishes steadily, with Year 1 focused on roots, Year 2 on stronger shoots and Year 3 delivering full ornamental presence. The cool snow-white petals hold their colour well, keeping a clean, fresh look in changeable British weather. Once settled into well-prepared soil that drains winter rain, TINEKE offers long-term reliability with only moderate care, giving you a composed, quietly luxurious display in a small family or terraced-house garden.

Technical cultivar profile
Property
Data
Name and registration
Hybrid tea rose cultivar marketed as Tineke, with ARS exhibition name ‘Tineke’; commercial type and group hybrid tea rose; supplied here as own-root, container-grown plant for garden use.
Origin and breeding
Bred by Herman H. Boerlage in the Netherlands, from Nursery Stock Plant No. K70 × unknown seedling; introduced and registered in 1989 by Select Roses B.V. for international garden and exhibition markets.
Awards and recognition
Highly regarded as a show rose, with multiple Queen and King of Show titles, plus Best White Rose awards in American and Canadian competitions between 1999 and 2010, confirming its exhibition-level flower quality.
Growth and structural characteristics
Tall, upright bush reaching about 150–190 cm high with 105–135 cm spread; dense, matt, dark green foliage on moderately thorny stems; weak self-cleaning means spent blooms benefit from regular deadheading.
Flower morphology
Large, very double, high-centred blooms with over 40 petals, carried mainly singly on stems; classic pointed buds open to exhibition-style flowers, remontant through the season with a particularly abundant second flush.
Colour data and phenology
Pure, ice-white flowers with cool undertone, coded ARS W, RHS NN155C–NN155D; colour holds well with minimal fading, though petal edges may brown in strong heat; buds show greenish-white tones before opening.
Fragrance and aroma
Fragrance is very weak, with only a faint classic rosy note detectable in warm, still conditions; chosen primarily for form, colour purity and cutting quality rather than for strong scent performance in the garden.
Hip characteristics
Very double flowers limit hip set; occasional small, globular hips 8–12 mm across may develop, coloured red (RHS 46A), but these are generally sparse and not a primary ornamental feature of the cultivar.
Resistance and winter hardiness
Rated to RHS H7 and around USDA zone 5b, tolerating -26 to -23 °C; disease resistance to mildew, black spot and rust is moderate, so routine monitoring and timely treatments are recommended in humid seasons.
Horticultural recommendations
Prefers full sun and fertile, well-drained soil; moderate maintenance needs with regular watering in dry spells and deadheading; spacing varies by use from about 110–200 cm, with lower densities for specimen planting.
TINEKE offers tall pure-white blooms, exhibition-quality flowers and long-term reliability on a resilient own-root framework, making it a thoughtful choice if you favour enduring elegance and straightforward care.

Information about the videos
The video series is not a “seasonal showcase”; it illustrates the essence of pharmaROSA® own-root cultivation in a tangible way: how the plant is built up, what the root system is like and how the shoot system regenerates. The recordings were therefore made at different times and with plants at various stages of development, so mixed foliage levels and differing stages of growth may appear in the videos. They are not a ‘sample’ of the batch dispatched, but a visual explanation of how the technology works. The current condition of the rose available to order — typical for the given period and similar to what you can expect to receive in the parcel — is shown in the upper part of the product page.
