There is something wonderfully romantic about old-fashioned roses, famed for their amazing fragrance and beautiful flowers. 'Comte de Chambord' is a genuinely old Damask rose, first introduced in 1860, and it has been hugely successful ever since. This is a deciduous rose, so it'll lose all of its leaves in autumn, with fresh new foliage appearing the following spring and quickly covering the thorny stems, just in time for the flower buds start growing. The huge lilac-pink flowers that grow to 10cm (4in) across are fully double and absolutely packed with petals, bursting open in from June to September, and as you'd expect from an old rose, they have the most sublime, sweet and heady fragrance. Supplied as a freshly potted, professional quality plant in a 3L pot, growing to a height of 1.2m (4ft) and a width of 90cm (3ft).
Surprisingly, good white roses are hard to find but 'Iceberg' is quite simply one of the very best roses ever bred.A floribunda rose, it produces wave upon wave of gorgeous clusters of medium-sized, lightly double, pure-white flowers in a wonderful contrast against its dark-green, glossy foliage. Purest white, sometimes with a tinge of blush pink in the heat, it has a light sweet fragrance it keeps on going all summer, and well into the short nights of autumn. Repeat flowering, vigorous and very easy to grow, 'Iceberg' has won stacks of awards since it was first bred over half a century ago and is still as popular as ever. Fully deserving its coveted RHS Award of Garden Merit, you can be sure that this is a proven garden performer, guaranteed to be suitable for UK gardeners at every level of experience. You can therefore plant this in the garden with confidence, for stunning displays for many years to come. Floribunda Roses produce large clusters of flowers, creating a gorgeous effect in your garden which lasts over many seasons - few other plants can do that for you! Perhaps due to the number of flowers, floribunda roses don't usually have much scent, and if they do it's generally light. That said, more fragrant varieties are being bred all the time. The good news for new gardeners or those with very little time on their hands, is that as they are generally hardy, more robust and more disease resistant than other rose types, they really are one of the easiest types to grow and perfect for most garden situations, including containers for the more compact types. A great garden rose and an absolute must-have for any rose lover! Supplied as a freshly potted, professional quality plant in a 3L pot, growing to a height of 1.2m.
There really is something special and iconic about English Shrub Roses, which is the term for the old-fashioned type of classic rose with a very filled centre, their petals making the most remarkable patterns. New breeding over many years has made them much easier to grow in all gardens - big or small - either in larger pots or in borders and beds. This variety has been bred to have both a good fragrance, and superb disease resistance - not always possible with roses, but our growers have managed it! Best of all it is a repeat flowerer, and will bloom for 4-5 months with little dead-heading, although you may wish to keep them tidy. It's a little more vigorous and less formal than Hybrid Tea Roses, so mix them in with other shrubs in borders too. Supplied as 1 bare root plant, trimmed back to 30-35cm, dormant without leaves, to plant November to April.
