Thanks to the individuals (for order preparation and shipping), the rose bush I received appears to be healthy. Planted along the edge of the pathway, I am now patiently waiting for it to take root... (or not?).

Description

The Rosier Street Colours 'La Grande Motte' is a compact landscape rose bush with a slightly spreading habit, perfectly suited for small urban gardens and container plantings. It forms a dense, rounded bush covered in flowers from May until the first frost. Exceptionally disease-resistant and pollution-tolerant, its almost matte green foliage highlights its small pompon flowers in creamy white, slightly enhanced with straw yellow. Versatile and low-maintenance, it is also an ideal rose for beginners.

The La Grande Motte 'Meimeigea' Rose is a Meilland landscape rose part of a new range called 'Street Colours', designed to adapt to small urban spaces, with remarkable floribundity, disease-free plants, and minimal maintenance. It eventually forms a bush with a slightly spreading habit, reaching a height of 40 to 60 cm (16 to 24in) and a width of 50 to 70 cm (20 to 28in). From spring to autumn, clusters of 3 to 7 flowers per stem, with approximately 20 petals, 5 cm (2in) wide, bloom on semi-matte green foliage. Initially tinted yellow in the bud, they open to creamy white and sometimes finish their flowering cycle with pinkish hues. Their open form reveals a heart of golden yellow stamens, highly attractive to bees and pollinators.

This La Grande Motte 'Meimeigea' rose thrives in all gardens, regardless of size, on balconies and terraces. It adapts to all soils that are not too dry and all climates. Easy to grow, all left is to admire it and find companions in flower beds or borders. Some rustic-looking perennials, such as scabious, echinacea, lavender, or blue salvias, allow you to create a nearly maintenance-free flower bed. Purple berberis bushes create a lovely contrast with their light-coloured flowers. A large pot becomes highly ornamental quickly before joining bouquets in a vase.

Planting and care

This rose is not very demanding in terms of soil and exposure. To install your rosebush in a pot, cultivate the soil to a depth of 25 cm per cube, crumbling the soil well and placing a soil improver such as blood, fish and bone at the bottom of the planting hole. After removing the plant from its pot, cover the top of the root ball with 3 cm of soil. In dry weather, water regularly for a few weeks to help the plant take root. Similarly, remember to water regularly in hot, dry summers for the first two years. Once established, your rose will need no watering in summer. You should also remember to feed your rosebush with special rose fertiliser to stimulate flowering.
