Gift Wrapped 'Blessings' Rose Bushes

Gift Wrapped 'Blessings' Rose Bushes

Blessings is a sweet little rose. It carries a profusion of double, cupped, almost salmon-pink flowers with a lovely perfume. Each bloom is quite large (4") and held well on a plant that is unlikely to top 3ft (1m). Flowering is pretty continuous from mid-June until the autumn and the foliage is a glossy, healthy dark green.

If you are looking for a little pink hybrid tea rose then Blessings is your man!

Great for your garden

Like all hybrid teas, Blessings prefers to be planted in good soil in a sheltered, sunny spot given the choice. However, the perfect location isn't essential; all hybrid tea roses grow on roots descended from some of the most resilient wild roses in the UK.
So cold and/or wet are no problem, but plenty of direct sun is important for strong blooming & sturdy growth.

Blessings is ideal for the front of a border and is small enough to be grown successfully in a container.
It's also a prolific flowerer, so if you have the luxury of a cutting bed, pop one in there if you cannot find her a home anywhere else.

History & Trivia

'Blessings' was bred by Walter Gregory in 1967. He was trying for a much bigger bush, but kept it when he saw how well its flowers stood up to the rain.
