This wild growth is welcome: Delicate flowers, beautiful foliage, bright fruit decoration – and all with little maintenance. Now is the best time to plant wild roses.
At the end of the garden year, wild roses have a very strong appearance: When the leaves fall, glistening rose hips shine out of the bare bushes, welcome ornament in the dreary garden and also the best winter food for the birds. But not only the autumn pluses have made hedge and wild roses the stars of natural gardens.
There are over 250 Varieties with different leaves- and flower colors, growth forms and sizes. Enough choice, an interesting, to plant almost impenetrable hedges, to combine them with other shrubs or as a solitaire to take center stage. Most wild roses are not picky about soil and location. Mulching and occasional thinning or pruning is sufficient. Important: Let the tree nursery advise you on the choice of variety, so you can get plants, that fit into your garden and don't outgrow you.
