We’re excited to be launching ‘SEE YOU® In Rosé' , a superb brand new fragrant Persica Rose in partnership with Daniel Myhill, Kordes Roses and Plant Heritage. It’s a beautiful new and floriferous hybrid, which produces large semi double, light pink flowers, with darker pink veining or marking on the petals and a distinctive deep reddish pink coloured eye and yellow stamens which contrast nicely. 

The reverse of the petals are almost pure white and would look stunning as cut flowers in a vase. ‘SEE YOU® In Rosé’  has a great ability to keep producing new flowers throughout the summer, allowing it to flower for many months from June through to late Autumn.

It’s the latest introduction in the world of Persica Roses, which have become increasingly popular and are now loved by garden designers throughout Europe.  

This variety is already picking up International awards for its fragrance and beauty, the open flowers and striking stamens make it perfect for bees and other beneficial insects.

Plant Heritage will receive £2.00 from each rose sold in 2024 to support their amazing work.

The History of Persica Roses

Persica Roses are unique compared to all other roses in having distinctly beautiful and eye-catching flowers with deep red to pink coloured centres.  They often start to flower earlier in the year than many other forms and continue to produce abundant clusters throughout the season in flushes and are known to be robust, healthy and hardy.

This is the first Persica variety being introduced by the world renowned Rose breeder Kordes Roses here in the UK.  Kordes are one of the largest, most innovative and successful rose breeding companies in the world.  Every year this family business produce over 25 million roses and are probably the most well-known for breeding disease resistant Roses.  

SEE YOU® In Rosé 
 
SEE YOU® In Rosé  is being launched at the prestigious RHS Hampton Court Garden Festival 2024 by Daniel Myhill, the National Collection Holder of Rosa perisca hybrids.

Daniel is honoured to be able to showcase Persica Roses, telling their story and the importance of growing and conserving these roses for the future.

How you will receive your plant:

Your bare root rose will arrive at your door at the right time for planting in autumn or into winter. Unpack them straight away and plant as soon as possible after delivery.

Your bare root roses will be sent out with full planting and care instructions.

Can’t plant straight away?

If you can’t plant right away, keep the roots buried under soil in cool, moist soil and lay the stems on a dry, hessian sack. We recommended you aim to plant them within seven days.

Planting tips and hints:

Before planting bare root roses, soak the roots in a bucket of cold water for a couple of hours to rehydrate them.

Plant roses into good garden soil that has been well dug and weeded; improve poor soil with compost.

Use a shovel to dig a hole wide enough to take the roots of the rose without cramping. Position the rose centrally in the planting hole with the bump on the stem (the graft union) level with the soil surface.

Backfill with soil to cover the rose’s roots, firm in gently and water well. Add a fertiliser to the soil when backfilling.

Feeding and aftercare:

Prune bush roses to shape in early spring.

Feed with a high potash feed such as Sulphate of Potash in late spring.

Deadhead spent flowers as they fade to prolong the display.

Tie climbing roses in to strong supports as they grow.
