The term "Veilchenblau" means "purple-blue" in German, just like the shade of its petals. Its semi-double, white centred flowers open up abundantly in June and are lightly fragranced. This climbing Rose with its strong growth is ideal trained along a wall, or planted at the feet of a pergola.
Availability or time of plantation :
When growing in the garden, roses should be planted between November and February. Roses are available all year round and are sold either as seeds or as cuttings. If you are growing in a pot, they can be planted at any time.
Care Tips:
Roses need to be fed regularly and the amount of feeding will depend on the kind of soil they are planted in. Pruning is also important and should be done after between mid-February and mid-March during a sustained frost-free period.
