Martha Stewart is a Hybrid Tea Rose that has more than 100 petals unfurling in shades of ballet pink and apricot and is scented with notes of citrus and honeysuckle.
Named for the home and garden icon, Martha Stewart is a rose worthy of its illustrious moniker.
Bred by Meilland, this rose was originally introduced in Europe as Jean de la Fontaine. The North American launch under the name Martha Stewart through Star Roses and Plants will make the rose available at independent garden centers starting in 2026. Very limited quantities of bare-root plants are available now online.
Known for her carefully designed and expertly tended gardens, Martha wanted to find a rose that would symbolize her life-long devotion to gardening, a rose that possessed her favorite characteristics: a gorgeous apricot-pink color, a full bloom, and an excellent fragrance.
For information about 2026 booking, growers in the horticulture industry are encouraged to contact their Star Roses and Plants Territory Manager or call customer service at 800-457-1859.
