The Mill on the Floss (Austulliver)

The The Mill on the Floss rose blooms abundantly from early summer well into autumn. Its flowers open a medium pink and brighten as they age, with striking dark red edges that give each flower a playful detail. Sometimes the flowers appear singly, sometimes in small clusters.
With its informal, bushy growth habit and height up to 1.5 meters, this shrub is ideal for borders, cottage gardens, and mixed beds. Thanks to its winter hardiness and robust character, it is also low-maintenance and reliable in various garden settings.

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.
