Spring Rose with new foliage

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.


Product Information

Little Pet Rose

Sure to catch the eye, Little Pet Rose makes a graceful addition to any garden. This historic variety was first introduced in 1879 and is still a firm favourite today. Large clusters of small white flowers emerge from pink-tinged buds, for a captivating effect. The full, pompom-like blooms have a charming fragrance, and repeat flower in abundance all season long. The dark and glossy foliage perfectly highlights the delicate pale beauty of the flowers.

Hardy and with good disease resistance, Little Pet Rose is a well established variety that is also tolerant of poorer soils and shade. Although a compact variety, the vigorous growth forms a neat, rounded shrub, perfect for pots or the front of borders. Alternatively, plant in groups for a focal point that can be enjoyed all summer long.

Potted Patio Roses

Patio roses are compact bush roses, thus ideal for front borders and patio pots, and can be planted straight away.

For more information on the different types of roses we offer and 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.

A fantastic ethical gift, from a small independent UK business.

Size and Season Information

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.

Rose bushes go through different stages of growth throughout the year. They will look different as they move from their dormant phase in the winter to being in full bloom during the summer. For more information on how a rose will look throughout the year, please see our growth guide.

Our standard container is 5.5L, or there is the option to upgrade to our large willow basket for a patio ready gift! All roses (except bare root) will be securely packaged into our specially designed box, and are delivered via DPD. More information on sizing and delivery can be found in our help guides.
