March - April

As spring arrives and the weather warms, roses will be emerging from dormancy and starting to grow. Their stems will have been lightly pruned to encourage new growth, and leaves may start to appear. Roses grow at different rates, depending on variety, age, and weather conditions. Roses still need to be kept outside even if the temperatures fall.

Old-Fashioned Shrub Roses

Gallica roses are a historic group of roses, one of the first species of rose to be cultivated in Europe. Thus with a bushy growth habit, these incredibly hardy roses flourish even in poor soils, and are renowned for their wonderful fragrance. These old-fashioned shrub roses do not repeat their flowers, and instead bloom in a large mid-season flush. Ideal for beds and borders, these old-style roses can enhance both formal settings and relaxed country-style gardens.

For more information on the different types of roses we offer and therefore what may be most suitable for your garden, see our handy guide.

How will my potted rose arrive?

Our roses are cut back for the Winter to promote root growth, thus will arrive with short but healthy stems between October and March. Roses in April and May would be expected to have new growth and leaves, and then between May and September buds and blooms. *Please note: These are estimates and can vary due to weather conditions and exact variety of rose.

Your rose will be in a large 5.5L container, which is recyclable and thus can be disposed of accordingly in your home recycling bin.

We take care to be as sustainable as possible here at English Roses, and so avoid single use plastics. Our packaging is therefore fully recyclable, even down to the strapping on our cardboard boxes. Our gift wrapping also contains natural materials, many of which can be repurposed and reused.
