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.

Potted Floribunda Roses

Floribunda roses are bush roses and thus ideal for borders and large 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 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. Between May and September you will see buds and blooms. *Please note: These are estimates and can vary due to weather conditions and exact variety of rose.

Expertly planted in our exclusive large willow basket, your rose will be ready to bring instant colour to the garden! Your rose will be safely nestled among approx 14L of quality fresh compost and premium slow release fertiliser, thus giving it all the nutrients that make our roses so stunning. Finished with a bark topping to aid water retention and suppress weeds, it also gives a gift-ready finish. At approx 14L, this large basket can therefore provide all your rose needs for up to 2 years with no replanting necessary, making it the perfect hassle-free 60th birthday rose!

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.

We deliver nationally using our delivery partner DPD, with full tracking available. Our roses are securely packaged in our specially designed parcels, so we are confident they can travel the country and still arrive in top condition. Send direct to loved ones or delivered to yourself so you can have the joy of gifting, it really is that easy!

A thoughtful retirement 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.
