The bare-root rose seems to be of good quality. We are looking forward to spring. However, the order arrived after a delay of one month, delayed dispatch and faulty delivery by Colissimo, we had to go pick up the package!

Description
Rose Simone Veil (Oracolhac) is a modern bush that bears large, double, turbinate flowers of a pure and vibrant red, with an elegant simplicity. Their fiery colour accompanies an intense and intoxicating fragrance, which can be appreciated both in the garden and in bouquets. The roses bloom from June to October on dark green foliage that is resistant to diseases. It is perfect in borders. The long-lasting flowers are ideal for making bouquets. It is a beautiful tribute to someone who embodies a great political and historical figure.
Rose Simone Veil is a modern rose with large flowers launched in 2015 by the Orard house, a rose grower since 1930. This variety won the Public Prize in Barcelona in May 2015. A bushy and compact shrub, it reaches an average height of 85cm (34in) at maturity. It has a rapid growth rate. The plant produces strong, thorny branches that bear foliage divided into large, thick, and toothed leaflets, with a glossy dark green colour. From May-June, the plant produces waves of 9 to 10cm (4in) flowers, with a shape that is both turbinate and elongated, characteristic of hybrid tea roses. The flowers are solitary or gathered in small clusters at the end of long shoots from the current year or by those that emerge from 2-year-old stems. The flowers will continue to bloom until October if faded roses are regularly removed. The foliage is deciduous in winter.
This rose looks stunning when planted in groups of 3, placed in the centre of a border, or paired with white or red roses. It also blends well with light shrubs, perennials, and annuals such as gaura, catmints, bellflowers, panicled phlox, or tall foxgloves. A herbaceous clematis with blue flowers like Clematis heracleifolia or Sollya heterophylla can be planted at its base in mild climates. Its roses are absolutely stunning in bouquets, combined with lilies and lilacs in summer or asters in autumn.
This superb rose was named to honour Mrs. Simone Veil on the 100th anniversary of the association "La Renaissance Française". Mrs. Veil was the Honorary President of the association.

Planting and care
Plant in a sunny location. Modern roses are tolerant, but do not like excessive limestone. They will adapt to any garden as long as the soil is well worked, not too heavy, and sufficiently rich. To plant your rose, work the soil by crumbling it and add fertiliser to the bottom of the planting hole (dried blood or dehydrated horn, for example). Water generously after planting to remove any air pockets. Water regularly for a few weeks to facilitate root growth. Provide your rose with special rose fertiliser that stimulates flowering.
Avoid pruning too short in the first two years.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
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).
