Has Ornamental Hips

While many roses are admired solely for their flowers, our Ornamental Hips collection showcases varieties specifically chosen for their stunning fruit display after the petals have fallen. These rose hips come in a delightful array of shapes, sizes, and colours – from brilliant reds and oranges to deeper maroons, often lasting well into the colder months. They provide a vital splash of colour when the rest of the garden begins to fade, adding a unique texture and form to your outdoor space. Beyond their visual appeal, these hips are a crucial food source for birds and other wildlife, encouraging biodiversity in your garden. To ensure a bountiful display of hips, it's essential not to deadhead these roses after their summer flowering. Instead, allow the spent blooms to mature naturally into their colourful fruit. A good sunny position and well-drained soil will also help them to ripen beautifully, intensifying their colours and ensuring a healthy crop.
