Red Roses – Half Standard

The classic red rose, fragrant and beautiful. A symbol of romance, love, courage and strength.

Our Red Rose Trees produce large, colourful flowers every year – they are about 9cm in diameter and can appear singularly or in pairs – perfect for taking cuttings to give to your sweetheart. Red Roses appreciate being placed in a sunny spot and protected from the coldest winter nights. Sold as a “Half Standard” size, this means the tree will have a bare trunk of roughly 60 – 90cm between the ground and first branches.

Roses are grown for their breathtaking beauty. It is genuinely poetic and artistic to watch a rosebud slowly open and bloom in your own garden. And with blooms that come in every colour of the rainbow, you’re certain to find a rose that matches your garden’s style and palette. Second only to their beauty is their scent, which varies from plant to plant, but can bring a new level of sensory interest to you garden.
