The Ancient Mariner rose blooms in abundance with large, full flowers in a warm mid-pink shade. The petals lighten softly towards the edges and gradually reveal a beautiful cluster of golden stamens at the centre. Its fragrance is a classic, medium to strong myrrh scent that adds a refined atmosphere to any garden.
This rose forms a bushy, upright shrub, making it perfect for borders, mixed beds, and cottage-style gardens. Its name is inspired by the famous epic poem The Rime of the Ancient Mariner by Samuel Taylor Coleridge.

Roses in a pot
A potted rose is a rose plant that has already been grown in a pot and is delivered with a well-developed root system. These roses are ready to be planted in the garden or in a larger pot, without having to wait for roots to develop. This makes the potted rose ideal for year-round planting, especially May to October.
Bare-root roses – also called root roses – are rose plants that are delivered without pots or soil. These roses are dormant and can be planted directly in the ground. The best time to plant a root rose is autumn or early spring, when the soil is still moist and the temperature is mild.
At Belle Epoque we supply bare root roses from November to AprilThanks to the well-developed root system and the right planting conditions, these roses grow vigorously into healthy and floriferous shrubs or climbing roses.
