Description

Rosa Bees Paradise Ivory, with its beautiful ivory white flowers, adds to this lovely collection of compact roses developed by the German rose breeder Tantau to attract and nourish bees. It is interesting for its generous and perpetual flowering, as well as its natural disease-resistance, which is well above average. Forming beautiful, easy-to-care-for flowering cushions, all Bees Paradise have a large, easily accessible heart of pollen-rich stamens. Their small size allows them to be grown in gardens of all sizes and styles, or in pots on a balcony or terrace.

The flowers of Rosa Bees Paradise Ivory are gathered in small terminal clusters, inherited from the polyantha rose, an old hybrid derived from Rosa multiflora and R. chinensis. They are particularly rich in nectar and pollen. It forms a low, well-branched bush, about 50 cm (20in) high and 60 cm (24in) wide. The flowers are semi-double cups, 2 to 4 cm (1 to 2in) in diameter, composed of 5 to 10 ivory white petals and a golden yellow stamen-filled heart. Flowering starts in June and regularly renews until October. With the Bees Paradise roses, the faded flowers fall off on their own, without the need for deadheading. Flowering will slow down if the soil is too dry in summer, but will resume in September. This variety has very dark, glossy, deciduous, disease-resistant foliage that falls in autumn.

Rosa Bees Paradise Ivory is robust and hardy and will grow in all soils that are not too dry, but prefers fertile and deep soils. Its dense and low habit allows it to be used in large borders, in not too dry rockeries or on slopes. It can also be planted in groups of 5 in the centre of a small flowerbed. Plant it en masse along a pathway or to highlight shrub beds. It pairs well with light or opulent perennials, or with other dwarf roses from the Bees Paradise series, the 'Bordure Blanche' rose, or the 'Bordure vive' rose. It can be grown with perennial geraniums (Geranium Blue Cloud, Anne Folkard, Nimbus, Orion, Rozanne), bellflowers (lactiflora, rapunculoides), catmints, snapdragons, foxgloves, or carnations. It is perfect for decorating the terrace or balcony in a beautiful pot or a large planter.

Bred by Tantau (Germany) in 2021.

Planting and care

Bees Paradise Ivory roses prefer a sunny location (at least 4 to 5 hours of sun per day) but sheltered from the scorching midday rays and strong winds. They like loose, permeable, deep, and fertile soil. They prefer neutral to slightly acidic soil but will grow in any garden as long as the soil is well-worked and sufficiently rich. To plant your rose, dig the soil to a depth of 25 cm (10in), breaking up the soil well and place a base fertiliser such as bonemeal in the bottom of the hole, remove your rose from its pot and position covering the top of the root ball with 3 cm (1in) of soil, fill in and water thoroughly to eliminate air pockets. In dry weather, regular watering is necessary for a few weeks to aid root establishment. Provide your rose with special rose fertiliser to stimulate plant flowering.
