The Princess Alexandra of Kent produces strikingly large, cup-shaped flowers with up to 130 petals per bloom. The colour fades from a soft outer edge to a deeper, warm pink centre, creating an enchanting visual effect.
Besides her beauty, this rose is also cherished for her unique scent profile: a fresh tea fragrance that develops into lemon and is finally enriched with fruity notes of blackcurrant. The bush grows healthy, bushy, and well-rounded, and is excellently resistant to diseases.

Roses in pots
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 directly in the garden or in a larger pot, without having to wait for root growth. This makes the potted rose ideal for planting throughout the year, especially from May through October.
Roses with bare roots
Bare-root roses – also called root roses – are rose plants delivered without a pot or soil. These roses are dormant and can be planted directly in open ground. The best time to plant a root rose is in autumn or early spring, when the soil is still moist and the temperature mild.
At Belle Epoque we supply bare-root roses from November through April. Thanks to the well-developed root system and the right planting conditions, these roses grow vigorously into healthy and bloom-rich bushes or climbing roses.
Products are shipped directly from the nursery every Monday and Wednesday. By delivering only twice a week, we reduce logistical emissions and optimise our processes. This benefits both the quality of our products and the climate.
