Shrub roses, with their rich history and enchanting beauty, are an essential addition to any garden lover's collection.

In this article, we delve deeper into the world of shrub roses, provide tips for selection and care, and highlight some of the most popular varieties available from Belle Epoque.

What are shrub roses?

Shrub roses are vigorous rose bushes that grow to an impressive height and width of 1 to 2 meters. Their bushy, natural growth habit makes them a beautiful eye-catcher in any garden. These roses come in a wide range of colors, from subtle pastel shades to vibrant, deep colors, and flower shapes including single, semi-double and fully double flowers. The flowering period extends from early summer to autumn, after which the plants often produce graceful hips that provide an additional decorative element to the garden.

Selection and Care

When choosing shrub roses for your garden, consider the following points:

• Color and Shape: Choose colors and flower shapes that complement your existing garden design.
• Position: Shrub roses thrive best in a sunny spot with at least six hours of direct sunlight per day.
• Soil: Provide well-drained, fertile soil. Enrich the planting site with compost or organic fertilizer before planting.
• Water: Water regularly, especially during dry periods, but avoid flooding.
• Pruning: Light pruning in early spring promotes healthy growth and flowering. Remove dead or damaged branches and thin out for good air circulation.
