Bonica at a glance
Be enchanted by the timeless charm of Rosa Bonica®, a masterpiece from the renowned rose breeder Meilland. This floribunda rose, beloved since 1981, adorns your garden with lush clusters of soft shell pink, semi-double flowers. The strong, classic rose fragrance fills the air from June well into autumn, while the glossy dark green foliage provides a stunning backdrop. Bonica® is known for its unmatched reliability, disease resistance, and winter hardiness down to -28ºC, making it a durable choice for every garden lover.
With its compact and bushy growth habit of about 120 cm, Bonica® is exceptionally versatile. It excels in borders and flower beds, creates beautiful group plantings, and feels just as at home as a solitary eye-catcher in both classic and modern gardens. It also thrives in large pots and containers on terraces or balconies. Moreover, Bonica® is a true magnet for bees and butterflies, enriching your garden with liveliness and natural beauty.
At Belle Époque Rose Nursery in Aalsmeer, you buy Rosa Bonica® directly from the grower. With over 40 years of family experience in rose cultivation, we guarantee you a top-quality product, sustainably grown with care and expertise. We stand behind healthy, strong plants that, with proper care, will provide years of blooming pleasure in your garden.
