Phyllis Bide Rambling Rose (6 litre pot)

A reliable repeat flowerer, Phyllis Bide is a rambling rose that produces stunning blooms in a mix of pale apricot and pink. These delightful flowers are flushed with pale yellow and produce a subtle sweet fragrance.

Phyllis Bide will bloom between May and September with each flush of flowers lasting for up to 3 or 4 weeks. It grows slightly smaller than some other rambling roses, reaching a height of around 4.5m in a period of around three years.

Plant this rose in a position of full sun or partial shade. To help establish roots and encourage good plant health, plant with an application of Mycorrhizal Fungi. It is perfect for growing up a doorway, wall or fence and will excel when integrated into garden structures such as large arches or pergolas.

Originally introduced in 1923, this beautiful rose is suitable for a wide range of gardens with delightful sprays of pale apricot-pink flowers.
