This peach and crushed strawberry concoction, which won the Rose of the Year award in 2023, is stunningly beautiful. Rosa Peach Melba is a deserving winner of the competition. It has been tested for two years on health, zeal, aroma, and ease of care. It carries cup-shaped, scented blooms in daintily combined shades of apricot and pink throughout the summer. The blooms are produced on bushy, upright plants that are resilient to blackspot, mildew, and rust. As a short climber, it is ideal for smaller walls or growing in a large container. Height: 200cm (78). Spread: 150cm (60).
Growing Information
Plant bareroot roses at the earliest opportunity following delivery. To avoid the risk from the build-up of harmful soil organisms and disease, choose an open position in full sun that has not been planted with roses in recent years. Roses enjoy a rich, fertile, well drained soil. Dig in plenty of well rotted manure or garden compost to the soil prior to planting roses and add a small handful of granular fertiliser to the planting hole. Stems of climbing roses will require training against a suitable support such as a pergola, fence or wall.
