Gift Wrapped 'Birthday Girl' Rose Bushes

Gift Wrapped 'Birthday Girl' Roses

Birthday Girl is a pretty, delicate affair, full of cheery colour and glossy good looks. Introduced in the late 80s, she's remained steadily popular for her ability to flower profusely all summer and autumn up to the first frosts, as well as for her good disease resistance and fabulous shiny foliage.

How to plant in the garden

Grow Birthday Girl as a hedge in a sunny spot, or plant it towards the back of a mixed border.

Classic cottage garden plants, roses (especially of the soft-pink variety) associate well with blue or purple hardy geraniums, catmint (nepeta), lavender, salvia, alchemilla mollis, stachys, verbascum, campanulas and delphiniums – to name just a handful of favourites. The last three will provide tall vertical accents to contrast with the rounded shape of the rose, while alchemilla, stachys and geraniums make wonderful underplanting specimens.
