The symbol of love and romance.
A true eye-catcher! The bright pink flowers of the spray rose 'Ville Roeulx' (Rosa) smell divine. Spray roses make an excellent hedge shrub too. For a hedge, use three plants per running metre. A double row is even lovelier. You'll never grow bored of this rose because it flowers the whole season long!
Plant five to seven roses per linear metre. You will receive the rose bare-rooted in sugar cane sacking. This is more environmentally friendly than plastic nursery pots. The roots come fresh from the ground and are already a year old. This gives them additional strength, enabling them to grow faster than they would in a nursery pot. They flower better, are more economical and are hardy perennials.
Plant the rose in the autumn or early spring. The flowers bloom in the summer until autumn. Prune the rose every spring. In the summer, remove any wild shoots growing from the stem or roots. Place the plant in full sun or partial shade. Water the rose generously immediately after planting. Give extra water during dry periods.
This rose is licensed, which means that it has been cultivated for health and is less susceptible to disease. The leaves, for example, stay on the plant all summer, which helps the rose to bloom and means that you can enjoy the flowers, healthy leaves and the scent of the roses for longer.
All of our roses are grafted, which means that they have a frost-sensitive grafting point (the thicker area where the branches originate). The advantage of grafted roses is that they are much more winter-hardy and last longer because roses grafted to rootstock are stronger.
