History
'New Zealand' was developed by Samuel McGredy IV in New Zealand in 1989. The rose is a cross between Hybrid tea roses 'Harmonie' and 'Auckland Metro'. McGredy created a unique double name for the rose, 'Aotearoa New Zealand', to honor the Maori and the European cultures of New Zealand on the occasion of the country's 150th anniversary.[1] ‘Aotearoa’ means Land of the Long White Cloud in the Maori language.[2]

Petals are light pink on their upper sides with a darker peach pink on the reverse. Flowers have a strong, sweet fragrance and are displayed in single blooms or in clusters on long stems. Foliage is a dark, glossy green.[3]
