Description

The Rosier Sugar Candy Rose® 'Meiconfiz', bred by Meilland in 2023, is an ideal variety for gardeners looking for a small, colourful, and floriferous bush rose that is easy to grow. Its generous flowering, in clusters of orange roses turning to candy pink, brightens up any setting from spring to the first frosts. With a compact habit, it is perfectly suited for small spaces like terraces and balconies, but also fits well in beds or borders. This highly disease-resistant rose is robust, undemanding, and cheerful.

The Rosier Sugar Candy Rose® belongs to the group of floribunda roses, or clustered bush roses. Roses in this category produce flowers grouped in clusters, providing spectacular flowering, continuous throughout the season. 'Sugar Candy Rose' is a small bushy shrub reaching approximately 40 cm in height and spread. Its flowers, measuring between 7 and 8 cm in diameter, appear in dense clusters. They start bright orange, then transition to candy pink and finally to pastel pink as they age. The flowering is continuous, extending from May-June until the first autumn frosts.

The deciduous foliage is a vibrant green, of medium size, enhancing the vibrancy of the flowers. Although this variety is not scented, it compensates for this with its brilliance and remarkable disease resistance.

Floribunda roses are great for creating beautiful small hedges, planted mixed along a terrace edge or in small shrub borders. The Rosier Sugar Candy Rose® is an excellent choice for small gardens, balconies, and terraces, bringing a lot of colour without requiring much maintenance. When placed at the edge of borders or in containers, it adds a colourful and dynamic touch to your floral compositions. For a cohesive look, combine it with lavenders or 'Lyrical Blues' meadow sage, for example. A must-have companion for roses, Nepeta ‘Six Hills Giant’ highlights them with its bluish lightness. To complement your border, consider small grasses like Stipa 'Angel Hair'. To soften the colour of 'Sugar Candy Rose', pair it with a white single-flowered rose, for instance 'Rigo Innocencia'.

Planting and care

Plant the floribunda rose Sugar Candy Rose® from November to March, in ordinary, well-prepared and well-drained soil. Roses appreciate clayey soils, heavy rather than light. In soil that is too sandy, too compact and/or too dry in summer, it is advisable to incorporate compost or well-rotted manure at the bottom of the planting hole. However, this rose dislikes waterlogged soils in winter. Place it in a sunny location, preferably in partial shade. Roses are hungry plants, a specific fertiliser application will be beneficial at the start of growth and regularly throughout flowering.

Roses are often stained or unsightly at the end of summer, but this is not a problem for their development. These stains are not harmful to the rose, it is a natural phenomenon.

Care

Pruning instructions To promote reblooming, regularly remove faded flowers. Floriferous types of rose varieties like floribunda roses are more vigorous and produce more flowers than large-flowered rose varieties. Therefore, prune the stems to about a quarter of their length (from 4 to 6 buds from the base of the stem) at the end of winter. Always prune above an outward-facing bud so that the bush can thicken and the branches do not cross in the middle.
Pruning Pruning recommended once a year
Pruning time February to March
Soil moisture Moist soil
Disease resistance Very good
Overwinter Can be left in the ground
