The irresistible rise of the rose - Financial Times

It was the most dream-like week.”The rose has long inspired grand obsessions. When Empress Joséphine bought the Château de Malmaison outside Paris in 1799 she set about collecting every available cultivar. During the Napoleonic Wars her roses – and her London-based advisor, John Kennedy – were given safe passage across the Channel. By the time of her death in 1814, she had created the largest rose collection in the world, famously recorded by botanical artist Pierre-Joseph Redouté, which would inspire a generation of rose breeders and collectors.Even more modest enthusiasts will relate to the covetousness that these plants inspire. At David Austin Roses, the Shropshire-based breeder of some of the best-loved modern varieties, sales have boomed, with a 200 per cent increase year on year last February for the sale of bareroot roses (which are sold while dormant and planted in winter). There was also a 134 per cent increase in 2020 in the sales of roses that were potted up, compared with the previous year.For many rose fanatics it’s the old roses that have a special charm, with their voluptuous velvety petals and incredible scent. When Manolo Blahnik was growing up on La Palma during the 1950s, his mother collected old roses from France and England. “She took such care of them and they smelt so beautiful – it is the smell of my childhood,” says Blahnik from his home in Bath, where every corner of his terrace is smothered in pink roses, including the climber “Mortimer Sackler” that inspired his “Trellis” stiletto boot.For Blahnik the rose is interwoven with everything he loves about Englishness, from the damask blooms of country house chintz to the waft of Floris’s rose scent that enchanted him when he first arrived in London in the early ’70s. “Roses are a part of the culture and why I came to England.”His passion for the old ros...

Gardening With Allen: Perennial flowers offer early color - The Columbian

I don’t have to replant every year. Could you share with us some of your favorite perennial flowers? How do they bloom in comparison to annuals? Perennial flowers are becoming more popular every year as gardeners look for ways to reduce gardening maintenance. Some perennials bloom before it is even warm enough to plant annuals. So they give a welcome addition of early color to supplement our spring-blooming bulbs like daffodils and tulips. Other perennials bloom late in the season, continuing past the time when most annual flowers have finished blooming. However, there are only a few perennials that bloom for as long a period as some of our most popular annual flowers. I have planted a lot of early- and late-blooming perennials, but I have some favorite summer-blooming perennials also. I particularly like the ground-cover perennials that provide an alternative to grass lawns. These include spring-blooming gold alyssum, white candytuft, and both rock cress and false rock cress, which come in white, pink, blue and purple shades. My favorite ground-cover perennial is lamium or spotted nettle, which not only blooms early but continues to produce flowers all summer. These are some of the first perennials available in full-service nurseries and garden stores by early April. Two taller lon...
