One of the most popular roses in the world, but there is still some debate as to whether the rose is pink or white, hybrid tea or floribunda. In fact, the flowers are a beautiful pale pink in cold climates and pure white in hot climates. At the beginning of summer, flowers appear more often one at a time, and in the second flowering - in large clusters. Each individual flower is large and elegant, like hybrid tea roses, blooming from an elegant, classically shaped bud. Later, the bud turns into a cup-shaped flower, like floribunda, with red stamens in the center. If you look at the rose up close, you will see that it has gray pollen - a very unusual color for a rose. The petals curl beautifully, which adds to the overall impression of grace, although in fact the petals are very dense, resistant to rain. The bush is tall, vigorous, graceful, erect, disease resistant, with large shiny foliage. In hot climates it reaches 2.5 m and blooms up to 12 months a year, but its delicate beauty is perhaps even more appreciated in cold countries. (ARE)
This magnificent rose blooms in small clusters of very pale pink, almost white flowers. The elegant buds open into flowers with wavy petals surrounding a tightly curled center that also opens over time to reveal golden stamens. The flowers have a rich aroma and stand well when cut. The bush is vigorous, erect, with dark green foliage, reaching 75 cm. It blooms for a very long time. Resistant to heat and rain. (IER)
The flowers are white, with a pearly pink tint in the center. The intensity of the pink color varies depending on weather conditions. By the time the flower has fully opened, the flowers are pure white. Coloring is resistant to adverse weather conditions: heavy rains have almost no effect on the flowers. The flowers open in three distinct stages, and are magnificent at every stage of bloom. First we see a gracefully pointed bud, ideal for cutting. In the second stage, the high center remains, but it has an environment of petals. Finally, the center opens up, and before us is a new beautiful flower, showing the stamens. Smells gently of rose oil. The flowers are collected in small clusters and do not bloom too profusely. The bush branches little, new shoots appear mainly from the base, so it is more compact and see-through than usual. Reaches 110 cm in height and 60 cm in width. The foliage is dark green, shiny, sparse. The bushes become bare from below. May be affected by black spot. (Rhar)
This floribunda rose has received many awards, including for the wonderful aroma of double flowers. The newly opened buds are conical and later open to cup-shaped. The petals are initially pearly white, then acquire a salmon-pink hue. The bush is erect, well branched, covered with fresh green foliage. (VER)
One of the best white floribundas. Very similar to Iceberg, except Margaret Merill is aromatic. The variety has received many awards. Beautiful rose, resistant to diseases, grows rapidly. Grows larger than Iceberg. (RRC)
Good day!
It’s not for nothing that the rose is considered the queen of flowers; this noble flower has incredible aroma and perfection of forms, the abundance of varieties allows you to choose a plant for every taste and color.
I love roses very much, so in my garden they take up almost all the space. Of course, plants require care, it is very important correct pruning, watering, fertilizing, sheltering for the winter, and then your plant will delight you with lush flowering all summer long.
David Austin roses appeared in my garden just a couple of years ago, but now these English aristocrats are my favorites. They captivated me with the perfection of their forms, their delightful aroma, and their gracefully drooping shoots.
English roses appeared as a result of crossing two roses - antique and floribunda. The flowers of these roses are shaped like a rosette or pompom with a large number of petals.
In this review I will talk about one of my favorite varieties of "ostok" - rose CROWN PRINCESS MARGARETTA (Crown Princess Margaret).
This rose received its name in honor of Crown Princess Margaret, granddaughter of the Queen of Sweden.
The buds of this rose open into large rosette-shaped flowers. A fully opened bud has an apricot-orange hue, but over the course of several days of flowering the color of the rose changes, becoming lighter, golden with a slight pinkish tint. In hot weather, the petals fade to a pale yellow color.
This rose has a very strong aroma, I would say it is the smell of a tea rose with a hint of fruity notes.
By the way, the aroma of English roses also tends to change throughout the day.
For example, in the morning the smell is stronger and more saturated, in the evening it becomes lighter and more refined; the aroma is also more intense in sunny, windless weather and barely perceptible in damp and rainy weather.
The average flower diameter is 10 - 12 cm; this beauty blooms for an average of 5 - 7 days.
This rose also looks great in the company of other plants; plants of contrasting shades will look good next to it - salvia, lavender, delphinium, speedwell.
This variety "Ostinok" belongs to one of the most hardy and healthy groups of varieties of English roses; they are very resistant to diseases such as powdery mildew and black spot.
This plant tolerates heat and cold very well.
The graceful spherical buds on elegantly drooping branches look very beautiful, as if straight out of old Flemish paintings.
This rose blooms very profusely, buds appear from the lowest shoots.
This rose blooms both with single buds and in small clusters - inflorescences of 3 - 5 flowers at a time.
The flowering of this rose is repeated throughout the season, for me it blooms on average four times per summer, the first flowering is the most lush and abundant, the last in September.
This rose will feel best in the sun and partial shade, but since these beauties are native to Foggy Albion, I think partial shade will still be preferable.
Features of care: Pruning is very important for English roses. To get large large flowers, the grown shoots need to be shortened by half, and if you want the bush to be strewn with buds, the stems should be cut by a third.
This rose can also be grown as a climbing rose, in which case minimal pruning is required.
Be sure to remove wilted buds and faded roses, this promotes the formation of new flowers .
It is better to water roses in the evening, preferably with settled or rain water, always watering under the bush. In hot weather, watering should be more frequent - 3 - 4 times a week; spraying the bush will also be useful in such weather.
It is also necessary to fertilize the plant. They are usually fertilized with organic and mineral fertilizers, and also add microelements and vitamins.
From mineral fertilizers will give a good effect ammonium nitrate, superphosphate(contained in these fertilizers nitrogen - helps increase the number of shoots, phosphorus - helps the formation of stems and flowers, potassium - promotes plant resistance to disease).
Also useful organic fertilizers - peat, grass fertilizers, mature compost, bird droppings.
Necessarily: loosening the soil and removing weeds. This will help the plant roots receive more oxygen, improve moisture access and nutrients.
Following these simple rules will help your plant stay healthy and delight with its unique beauty.

foxglove and rose Crown Princess Margareta
The English rose Crown Princess Margareta, as part of the group of Leander hybrids, has characteristics inherent in this subgroup - disease resistance, resistance to low temperatures, attractiveness. It forms a tall, spreading bush, consisting of long, beautifully arching branches, strewn with beautiful and healthy foliage.
The rose flower Crown Princess Margareta is densely double and on average has from 40 to 120 petals. They form a cup with a rosette, from which comes a strong aroma in the style of tea roses with a hint of fruit. The average flower diameter is 10 cm. The bud is rounded with a sharp tip. The flowers are collected in clusters and bloom one at a time. The flower lasts up to 7 days and almost does not react to rain. In hot weather it fades to pale yellow.
The Englishwoman prefers sun or partial shade. The optimal soil pH for it is 5.6 – 6.5. The Crown Princess Margareta rose is propagated by cuttings and dividing the bush. Roses have typical pests and diseases:
Care
We water the plant when the top layer of soil dries 3-4 cm. At the same time, we try to water the entire root zone. We do not pour water on the bush, but under the bush. The water should be warm. For maximum soil saturation, we recommend watering the Crown Princess Margareta rose in the evening hours so that everything is well saturated with moisture overnight. Another way to make the rose pleasant is to spray it in the evening in the heat. Watering at this time will also have to be increased to 3-4 times a week instead of 1-2. For 1 adult bush you will need up to 15 liters of water.
We must fertilize the plant, starting from the moment it opened after winter. Then we hold the event once every two weeks. In addition to mineral and organic fertilizers, the rose requires the addition of vitamins and microelements. They are brought in in windless, gloomy but dry weather. One fertilizing can be combined with watering. Both liquid and solid fertilizers are used. The last nitrogen-free fertilizing is given no later than the first half of September.
Loosening the soil and removing weeds is mandatory. These types of gardening help the plant's root system receive more oxygen and speed up the penetration of moisture and nutrients. They are done carefully so as not to damage the roots.
Another important point in the life of roses - pruning. Its purpose is not only to form a bush, but also to keep it clean. It is performed in spring or autumn. At the bush of the English rose Crown Princess Margareta, 5-7 main skeletal branches are left, which are shortened by 2/3, and old, diseased and unnecessary ones are removed. If the plant has been frostbitten over the winter, it is shortened to healthy tissue. I use only clean and sharp tools. During flowering, faded flowers are cut out, cut off above the first true leaf and completely faded clusters. This will stimulate the appearance of new flowers.
Usage
climbing rose Crown Princess Margareta
The use of the English rose Crown Princess Margareta in landscaping has a wide range - from single planting to planting in a wide variety of woody and floral compositions. For example, salvia, geranium, mantle, sage, lavender, and delphiniums are suitable for her as companions. Roses with this flower color look harmonious together with plants that have a blue-violet color scheme. An excellent cut plant. If it receives minimal pruning, it can be grown as a climbing plant. This rose will impress both in the form of a standard tree and planted in a container.
