Live the ‘Simple Life’ of a quaint British cottage garden with this delightful rose. A glamorous wild rose when in bloom, this variety produces single flowers with peach to pink petals surrounding rich amber yellow stamens.
Repeat flowering in the summer, you will be blown away by the continuous blooms that emerge from healthy dark green foliage, which acts as perfect shelter for smaller mammals and birds.
This climbing rose, which boasts a beautiful scent, makes a particular impact when grown on frames to add some height to any outdoor display. Climbing roses are a delight for the environment, as they grow quickly with plenty of leaves - perfect to produce oxygen.
This rose produces hips during autumn, containing the seeds of the plant. The bright colour attracts birds, which will eat the hips and distribute the seeds. The trusses of flowers seen on this climbing rose turn into hundreds of handy hips.
Roses, such as ‘Simple Life’, play an important role in ecosystems producing food for pollinators such as bees and hoverflies. Our roses have been grown to be rich in pollen, with flower shapes that allow the insects to reach it easily, and their long flowering season makes them extra valuable. Rose plants also host a range of insects that in turn provide food for birds.
The vibrant aesthetic and floral aroma of the blooms of 'Simple Life' make this plant a magnet for a number of species, including beetles and bumblebees.
