As the summer sun continues to shine, it’s the perfect time to give your roses a little extra care to keep them looking their best. Here are a few simple tips from our Rose Care Team to help your roses flourish through the warmer weather:
During hot, dry spells, it’s important to water your roses consistently – around twice a day for potted roses in extreme heat, otherwise every day. We recommend watering in the early morning or late evening when it’s cooler – making sure to target the roots to soak up the moisture they need.
Remove faded blooms to encourage your roses to produce new flowers. A little regular deadheading keeps your plants looking tidy and promotes repeat flowering throughout the season. If your roses are looking leafy but lacking in buds, a light summer prune of straggly growth and weak stems can encourage later blooming!
To give your roses an extra boost, spray foliar feed directly onto the leaves for a fast absorbing nourishment!
Our new and exclusive Rose Foliar Feed is a simple yet effective way of helping your rose thrive this summer:
Including a 500ml concentrate, dilute the feed with water using the 1L spray bottle also provided – one bottle can make up to 50 litres of foliar feed spray! Simply spray once a fortnight and admire the blooms!
Every rose has the option of a FREE gift message, printed on our exclusive rose gift labels and hung on the rose. Further customise your gift with our decorative wooden gift tags – a reusable and thoughtful way to show your love. Our top-quality gift bags made from cotton make a lovely reusable extra as well.

Introducing English Roses
Here at English Roses, we believe roses are for everyone!
Nothing quite beats the colour, fragrance and soft touch of a rose. That’s why we are committed to providing the very best quality roses.
Grown in the fresh air at our Nursery on the south coast of England, our roses come in large 5.5L recyclable containers, ready for you to place in your garden. Carefully packaged and dispatched with care, we are confident that your rose will reach you in top condition. Plant straight away or leave in their pots – the choice is yours.
We also believe that we should protect the environment at all costs. We avoid single use plastics as much as possible, and ensure that all our packing is recyclable or reusable. We use peat-free compost so as to not contribute to the depletion of peat bogs, and also use recycled wood and bark fibre. Not only environmentally friendly, but roses thrive in it!
Roses make incredible gifts, and a wonderful eco-friendly alternative to a bouquet. Not only will they flower for years to come, but they will attract bees and other pollinators, and in turn more wildlife, to your garden. As they bloom year after year, your garden will come alive with colour, fragrance and life, and become a haven that brings untold joy.
From birthdays to congratulations, gifts for teachers or gifts for corporate clients, we have the rose for you! So many colours, sizes and shapes, from roses that climb high for pergolas, to miniature patio roses; all can be found on our website englishroses.co.uk. And with each rose variety having it’s own individual name, it’s never been easier to find a personal present!
We have over 30 years experience in growing and selling roses, and are always happy to help. Contact us for free professional advice, and help with any problems or queries you may have.
