Pink Roses (Canina Rose) – Shrub
A rose bush with pale pink flowers, yellow pollen-producing stamen and bright red fruit berries.
The Dog Rose is much prettier than its name implies, it’s delicate blooms have the appearance of strawberry ice-cream – white in the centre, blending into a pale pink at the edges. Its flowers blossom in early summer, the red berries appear in the autumn. Sold as a potted shrub, the Dog Rose is an ideal choice for planting in containers, or for combining with other roses to create borders of various colours.
Roses are grown for their breathtaking beauty. It is genuinely poetic and artistic to watch a rosebud slowly open and bloom in your own garden. And with blooms that come in every colour of the rainbow, you’re certain to find a rose that matches your garden’s style and palette. Second only to their beauty is their scent, which varies from plant to plant, but can bring a new level of sensory interest to you garden.
