About Roses.

Todays modern roses are extremely versatile. From climbers to cover a wall or pergola to ground cover roses to cover up that bit where nothing ever gets done, there can be no garden that does not have space for at least one rose. Roses like to be grown in a sunny and airy situation in good rich soil. Training varies with the type of rose you plant, some need careful hand pruning others you get out the hedge cutters! Our plant label will let you know what to do. Click on the blue underlined names to go directly to the data sheet.
