Nostalgic Roses
In recent years “English and Nostalgic Roses” are gaining popularity and new and better varieties are introduced. We have made a collection of these new romantic roses that strike with their nostalgic flower shape, lovely colours, fabulous fragrance, good health and abundant flowering. “English and Nostalgic Roses” are used in beds, in groups of three, in pots, as solitary bush or as impenetrable hedge. Planting distance is depending on use and variety. Most varieties are best planted in groups of three (planting-distance ± 45 cm). They will form one bushy, dense shrub that will flower more regularly and abundantly, creating a greater effect in the border. We distinguish 4 groups of Nostalgic Roses: Nostalgic Hybrid Tea Roses, Nostalgic Floridunda Roses, Nostalgic Shrub Roses and Nostalgic Climbing Roses.
