Plant of the moment summer 2010 - Roses

Roses are a marvellous ingredient of the summer garden, whether rambling into trees as here at East Bergholt Place, laid out in a formal rose garden or taking their place among other shrubs in a mixed planting. Colours range from pure white and the subtlest pastels to flaming reds and oranges, the scent of many varieties is unsurpassed, and many flower continuously or with repeat displays of bloom. Splendid hips in autumn on some species provide a final flourish and food for the birds.

The Plant Centre prides itself in stocking an extensive range of roses from Hybrid Teas, to Old Fashioned and English Roses, Climbers and Ramblers, of these 100% are grown in England and about 90% of these are grown in East Anglia, the other 10% are from David Austin.
