Description
A rose that can be appreciated at any time of the day, ‘This Morning’ is a simply stunning shrub rose. Bursting to life from the start of summer with a profusion of pretty and characterful blooms. Several delightful pink petals darken to a deeper maroon towards the centre, and act as a bed for amber stamens to dance on top of.
These roses produce hips in autumn, which contain the seeds of the plant. The bright colour will attract plenty of birds, which eat the hips and distribute the seeds.
‘This Morning’ was released to mark the 30th birthday of ITV’s flagship daytime programme, This Morning, and is an environmentally beneficial beauty for any garden, supplied in a recycled plastic pot, having been grown in peat-free compost.
Although looking right at home when planted in beds and borders, this variety will also perform well in pots, as it fills the space completely and even daintily trails over the sides.
Roses, such as ‘This Morning’, play an important role in ecosystems producing food for pollinators such as bees and hoverflies. Our roses have been grown to be rich in pollen, with flower shapes that allow the insects to reach it easily, and their long flowering season makes them extra valuable. Rose plants also host a range of insects that in turn provide food for birds.
We always endeavour to provide beautifully formed plants; however, our roses will naturally start to lose their leaves from October to prepare for the colder months. Do not worry though, as they will flourish once again with leaves and buds in the spring. Please, make sure you consider the season when purchasing our remarkable roses for yourself or loved ones.
Supplied as an established plant in a 3-4 litre pot, ready to plant.
