RSPB Rose shrub Simple Yellow 3L-4L pot

Product description

Picture-perfect roses grow en masse on the rich foliage of ‘Simple Yellow’ to produce a summertime garden show that will attract a whole host of pollinators.

With a strong aroma and soft yellow-to-cream petals, each bloom of this shrub rose contrasts expertly against dark green leaves. This bed of foliage also forms excellent shelter for garden visitors, including birds.

As a repeat-flowering rose, even if you snip a couple of flowers to include in a vase display, they will soon be replaced by new growth, which continues to emerge from early summer until autumn.

About the Power to Pollinators collection

Flowers, such as roses, play a crucial role in our world’s ecosystem, thanks to pollination. This is the process where pollen is passed from one flower to fertilise another and produce seeds, thus continuing the cycle, while supporting a rich web of wildlife.

Our new range of roses has been developed to be rich in pollen, with a long flowering season to make them valuable for as long as possible. And because most of the roses are ‘singles’, with just one ring of petals, all that pollen is easily accessible to insects in the middle of each flower.

Planting a plethora of roses with different colours, shades, and scents, will help to attract a range of pollinators to the garden, from bumblebees and solitary bees to hoverflies and beetles.

A collection of nine roses has been selected to form our ‘Power to Pollinators’ range, such as the delightfully light pink shade of Rose ‘This Morning’ and the exquisite apricot amber glow of Rose ‘Bridge of Sighs’.

An array of rose types, both bush and climbing, is included in this collection, grown by the professional breeders and growers of Harkness Roses, who have been producing high-quality and beautiful roses for more than 140 years.

Harkness Roses is proud to produce plants that are grown with the environment in mind, in peat-free compost and without pesticides or chemicals. They are also supplied in pots made from recycled plastic.

For each rose sold in the ‘Power to Pollinators’ collection, a £2.50 donation will be made to the RSPB to help fund vital conservation work to save the UK’s wildlife, while your rose helps to do the same in your garden.
