All-America Rose Selections (AARS) Winner 1965 Many rose experts consider Mister Lincoln the best red rose ever. The urn-shaped, rich-maroon buds open their velvety petals to form perfect 4- to 6-inch, high-centered, fully double flowers, comprised of 25 to 40 petals of a lively red that will sometimes turn to a gorgeous purple if bathed in lots of sun. Boasting a strong melon fragrance, the long-lasting flowers are freely produced on long stems, perfect for cutting and exhibition. Mister Lincoln is a vigorous grower with a long bloom season and fine adaptability to adverse weather conditions, including heat. It has an attractive tall, upright habit of dark green, leathery foliage that makes a wonderful backdrop for the blossoms. This hybrid tea reaches an impressive height of 4 to 6 feet with a width of 2 to 3 feet, creating a display like no other. It performs best in sunny locations with medium-moist, slightly acidic, well-draining loam. A favorite among discerning gardeners for generations, it is a splendid addition to any setting. Mister Lincoln should be pruned in the spring, to half height or 18 to 20 inches above the ground, with the removal of old canes and dead wood. Cut back canes that cross each other. Gardeners in warmer climates will want to cut the remaining canes.
