About Mutabilis

The Rosa ‘Mutabilis’ is more than just a rose; it is a living work of art, a timeless classic that proudly carries the nickname "The Butterfly Rose." This rare Chinese shrub rose, with its light fresh fragrance, enchants with a unique color display: the single flowers open soft amber yellow, elegantly transform to copper pink, and end in a deep crimson red. This dynamic scene of changing shades creates a continuous painting in your garden, as if butterflies are landing and taking off again.

With its graceful, open growth habit and striking bronze-colored young leaves, the ‘Mutabilis’ is a majestic presence that comes into its own as a solitary plant, in a generous border, or as part of an informal hedge. Its abundant bloom from May to October not only attracts the attention of every garden lover but is also a magnet for bees and butterflies. This strong, healthy rose only requires a sunny, sheltered spot to show its full potential.

At Belle Époque Rose Nursery in Aalsmeer, you buy the Rosa ‘Mutabilis’ directly from the grower. With more than 40 years of expertise and a deep passion for rare and historic roses, we guarantee you a healthy, vigorous plant cultivated with love and expertise. Choose the sustainable quality of a family business and bring a touch of mystique and timeless beauty to your garden with this special rose.

Care & Plants
Plant the Rosa 'Mutabilis' in the fall (October-April) as bare-root or year-round from a pot. Choose a sunny, sheltered spot with well-draining soil. Dig a spacious planting hole, ensure enough distance from other plants (at least 100 cm), and plant the graft union just below the soil surface.
Prune the 'Mutabilis' lightly in early spring (March/April), just before new growth begins. Remove dead, damaged, or crossing wood and cut back the branches to maintain a nice, open shrub shape. A thorough rejuvenation pruning is rarely necessary for this hardy rose.
Water the Rosa 'Mutabilis' regularly during dry periods, especially in the first year after planting. For optimal flowering and growth, fertilize monthly from March to August with special rose fertilizer. A layer of mulch around the base helps retain moisture and suppress weeds.

"The rose is well packaged and looks beautiful. Fast delivery, and the personal advice via email was very valuable — I wasn’t sure where to plant it."
