A unique name your own rose bush named after the Happy Couple and with your own photo printed onto the plant label which is waterproof and frost proof.
Roses make a perfect gift for a wedding, the history of the rose goes back millions of years, the rose is undoubtedly the worlds favourite flower and it is grown all over the world, Roses have such a wide range of colours ranging from pure white, Clotted creams, Yellows, Tangerine and Peach, to crimson reds, Burgundy and Lilac Blues, so whatever colour scheme you have there is going to be a perfect match with a rose.
There are many varieties of roses, we sell floribunda roses and patio roses, these roses are full of colour during the summer months June-September. The floribunda roses needs to be planted in the garden and the Patio roses have smaller flowers but can be planted in the garden or a pot, making it ideal if someone only has a small balcony.
The Scent of the rose can be simply stunning, from the clotted cream rose to the deep burgundy, they all have a strong deep scent, strongest after the sun goes down on a hot summer day when they release the oil in the air.
Each Rose bush is gift wrapped, comes with a certificate which will include your message and the plant label, the name will be logged and it is unique to you.

With Valentines just around the corner, why not send a Rose Bush instead of a bunch of roses? Did you know that a single rose stem flown into the UK can generate 2.4kg of CO2
There is no better time than now to consider growing your own roses. All our roses are grown in the UK, you can then produce all the cut roses you want not just for valentines Day, not only that but you can name a rose after a loved one.
Create your own little memorial garden naming a rose after each family member or just give to someone you care about, it will not only encourage them into the garden but will give them an interest.
Some people find it hard on deciding which colour rose they should choose, obviously it is a personal choice and we are always happy to offer advice when someone calls us, but we have included a list of roses and their meanings below.

Summer is nearly over or has it even started? So perhaps it would be a good idea to mention a few things in this blog regarding
roses and warm humid weather.
What if you have a problem with green Fly?
We use Rose Clear every week, by spraying your roses before it gets any diseases will ensure that you have a healthy rose bush, but if you do get green fly, spray the plant with 'Lavender washing up Liquid' dilute it and spray onto the plant-yes it really works.
I have a problem with Black Spot?

Rose Care Tips for the Summer
Feeding your Roses
Feed your roses with either a granular fertilizer or Liquid fertilizer. If using liquid fertilizer regular feeding every 2-3 weeks until late summer, will give you beautiful blooms throughout the growing season.
If conditions are dry, water your roses before feeding them and then keep them well hydrated afterwards, this helps the plants absorb nutrients better, and prevent fertilizer burn on roots and leaves.

MARCH 2020 Welcome to our Blog. Its official February was the wettest on record. If you have heavy clay soil, you will need to break up some of the soil and introduce some manure or compost, or leave it to the worms… But it’s always a good idea to feed your roses now, with a good Rose Feed and again in the summer. We still have all our colours in stock, and with Mother’s Day around the corner we have got a Special Edition Coral Patio Rose bush, which will be happy in a pot or the garden, it will produce 100’s of small flowers throughout the summer.
