Léda at a glance
Discover the timeless elegance of Rosa 'Léda', also known as 'Painted Belgic' or 'Painted Damask', a historic shrub rose from 1818 that captivates with its pure white, double flowers. This rare beauty spreads an intense, classic rose fragrance that enriches every garden with a touch of nostalgia and romance. A true treasure for lovers of authentic, highly fragrant roses.
With a height of 90 to 180 cm, 'Léda' is ideal for borders, rose hedges, and parks, where it blooms tirelessly from June to September. It thrives in a location with at least 4 hours of sunlight and is fully winter-hardy, making it a robust and low-maintenance choice. Although it is not suitable for long-term container cultivation, its excellent health and luxuriant growth are expressed perfectly when planted in the ground.
At Belle Époque Rose Nursery, we cherish the tradition and quality of these historic roses. Your 'Léda' rose is organically grown with care (SKAL-certified) and shipped directly from our nursery in Aalsmeer to you. With more than 40 years of family experience, we guarantee a top-quality rose, ready to enhance your garden with its unique charm.
Forty years of nothing but roses
Belle Époque is a family business, not a wholesaler. From our greenhouses in Aalsmeer, we have been growing only roses for over four decades — and every plant we send out is personally selected by us. This way, you receive not a catalog rose, but a plant ready to grow.
