Why pay for over-priced red roses from the florist every Valentine's Day, when you can grow your own? This beautiful deep rich crimson tea rose forms a short, bushy growth that's continually covered in blooms. Its compact nature means it's perfect for the front of a border.Available from: David Austin Roses
Six of the Best Roses
If you want to add luscious colour and gorgeous fragrance to your garden, you can’t do much better than the rich greens and eye-catching blooms of the rose. And there’s far more to this plant than just the familiar bush: you can choose a climbing rose to frame a doorway, a low-growing variety to drape a wall or a row of standards to give pathways or patios that formal feel.Winter is the perfect time to plant but make sure you choose a suitable site: roses don’t like deep shade or crowded conditions, and thrive in slightly acid soils.
