Some rose bushes are beautiful even in winter, adorned with clusters of decorative fruits called hips. These are often species and varieties of botanical roses such as the dog rose, Rosa pimpinellifolia or the rugosa rose (Rosa rugosa), or even old roses resulting from a cross-breeding with botanical species, such as Rosa x rugosa 'Frau Dagmar Hastrup'.Their flowers are single or semi-double and their flowering is often solitary, not perpetual. Bushy or sarmentous ('Sir Cedric Morris', 'La Mortola'...), these roses produce fruits with various shapes and colours: round, oval or bottle-shaped, like Rosa moyesii 'Geranium'for example, in shades ranging from coral pink to dark reddish purple, they persist on the branches long after the foliage has fallen. Widely planted in Nordic countries, they deserve to be better known for their countless qualities.
We love their bouquets of eye-catching berries, often associated with beautifully coloured autumn foliage, which offer as much appeal to hedges and large flowerbeds as late flowering. Highly appreciated by birds such as blackbirds, these fruits blend in with the colours of autumn and the last remontant roses, bringing a rare touch of colour to flowerbeds and homemade bouquets, and animating the garden until late in the season. The pulp of hips is edible and very rich in vitamin C: it will be collected by those with a sweet tooth and those who take care of their shape to make jellies and jams. Discover our selection of roses with decorative fruits, they are easy to grow, exceptionally hardy, require little maintenance, and are easily propagated by cuttings.

The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:
In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
