If there's one flower Martha truly admires, it's roses. She has been growing and caring for this beautiful bloom for over 25 years. As a tribute to Martha's love of roses, she recently shared that she now has a variety named after her: The decorvow hybrid tea rose.

This brand-new rose is a hybrid tea with large pink blooms and lush, dark green foliage. But what really sets it apart is its lemon verbena, bergamot, and honeysuckle scent, which adds a lovely fragrance to any garden. The rose was bred by Meilland—a family-owned rose-growing business—and was launched in North America through Star Roses and Plants. You will be able to buy the rose at independent garden centers starting in 2026, but there are limited quantities of bare-root plants available now online.

“I am happy about many things these days but one thing that is really special is having a glorious, highly scented, and beautifully colored hybrid tea rose named after me," Martha wrote in an Instagram post.

In the caption, Martha thanked Danielle Dall’Armi, owner of Rose Story Farm, who she worked on this project with for two years. She also gave a shoutout to her head gardener, Ryan McCallister, for taking "such good care" of her roses.

Ryan tested the roses to determine the size of the blooms, the reliability of the bushes, and the scent profile. "We only have 5 'testers' at the farm right now, but in the spring, were are supposed to receive 100 or so more," Ryan says.

The decorvow rose is currently available online at EdmundsRoses.com for $39.95 each. "I am so happy that such a great rose is named after me and that many of you will be adding it to your garden," Martha says.
