Penelope Lively (Aus18a15)

The Penelope Lively® rose blooms in rich clusters with full, cup-shaped flowers that give a natural and classic appearance. The colour develops from warm mid-pink to an elegant lavender shade, creating a surprising and graceful effect in the garden.
The scent is medium to strong, with summery notes of raspberry, fresh lemon, and a hint of myrrh – a refined fragrance that enriches the garden. Thanks to its healthy growth and repeated blooming from early summer to autumn, this rose is an ideal choice for borders, flowerbeds, or large pots.

Roses in pots

A potted rose is a rose plant that has already been grown in a pot and is delivered with a well-developed root system. These roses are ready to be planted directly in the garden or in a larger pot, without having to wait for root growth. This makes the potted rose ideal for planting throughout the year, especially from May through October.

Roses with bare roots

Bare-root roses – also called root roses – are rose plants delivered without a pot or soil. These roses are dormant and can be planted directly in open ground. The best time to plant a root rose is in autumn or early spring, when the soil is still moist and the temperature mild.

At Belle Epoque we supply bare-root roses from November through April. Thanks to the well-developed root system and the right planting conditions, these roses grow vigorously into healthy and bloom-rich bushes or climbing roses.

Products are shipped directly from the nursery every Monday and Wednesday. By delivering only twice a week, we reduce logistical emissions and optimise our processes. This benefits both the quality of our products and the climate.
