Considered one of the world’s finest hybrid teas roses, the ‘Peace’ rose has magnificent large, hybrid tea shaped, fully double yellow flowers that have a touch of pink at the edge. This dash of pink at the edges of the petals acts as the perfect highlight to accentuate the exquisite beauty of the rose.
With prolific flowering and long-lasting blooms, the roses hold their shape well and cover the shrub, to create a dazzling display throughout the summer months, into autumn. The roses also have an incredible sweet fragrance.
The ‘Peace’ rose makes a wonderful addition to any rose garden, and with such good pedigree you won’t be disappointed. Plant it in rose beds with other hybrid teas, or on its own for a stunning scent filled display. It is a tall and vigorous variety, with long stems, making it an excellent choice as a cut rose to enjoy around the home as well. In addition to its beauty, this rose is attractive to wildlife and is a great way to attract bees and other pollinators into your garden.
To get the best blooms from the ‘Peace’ shrub rose, plant it with some soil improver or well-rotted manure and then add a sprinkling of Mycorrhizal Fungi to encourage strong root growth. Position your rose in a sunny spot, in moist but well-drained soil. You will then enjoy many years of magnificent floral displays.
