Description
The Rosy Boom 'Wildlife' Shrub Rose is a bush rose that is easy to grow and low-maintenance. It is derived from the Rosa rugosa wild rose, and its simple flowers are pink with yellow stamens, reflecting its natural heritage. It also produces an abundance of edible rose hips at the end of the season. This unpretentious rose pleases pollinators and can be grown in ordinary sandy soil rich in nutrients. This hardy, healthy, and compact selection can be pruned once a year. It forms a close, almost spherical bush that can be planted in flower beds, small hedges, or pots, allowing you to enjoy its pink flowers all summer before enjoying its bright red fruits in autumn.
The Rosy Boom Wildlife Shrub Rose has a rounded bushy habit and reaches an average height of 80 cm (32in) to 1 m (3ft) with a width of 40 to 50 cm (16 to 20in) at maturity, making it suitable for small spaces. Its flowering is particularly abundant and regular from June to September. Its small 4 cm (2in) wide roses are gathered in generous panicles. They are slightly flattened cups, a pretty bright pink with yellow stamens. The stems are adorned with deciduous foliage, cut into leaflets of medium green with a satin finish. The bush produces an abundance of edible rose hips at the end of the season, which form if you have taken care to leave a last flower uncut on the bush. Known for their high vitamin C content, five times higher than lemons, these fruits can be consumed infused, crushed, dried, or made into jelly. They are also an important food source for birds.
Landscape roses can be used to create beautiful small hedges, planted mixed along the edge of a terrace or in small shrub beds. Combine them with abelias, nandinas, deciduous ceanothuses, roses or blue ones, or caryopteris. They are good companions for peonies, paniculate phlox, and tall baby's breath. The modest size of Rosy Boom 'Wildlife' allows it to fit into any garden, even small ones. It can be used in various ways, according to each gardener's preferences: in a rose bed, alongside pink, red, or purple varieties, such as Rhapsody in Blue, or mixed with easy-care plants like perennial geraniums Rozanne, small-flowered carnations, perennial salvias, or pink and blue asters.

Planting and care
The Rose Rosy Boom 'Wildlife' is undemanding; it thrives in all regions that are not too hot and are not affected by diseases, cold, rain, or poor and occasionally dry soils. It adapts to any type of soil, even sandy soil. Plant it in well-worked and well-drained ordinary soil and in a sunny or partially shaded position, which it tolerates very well. Perfectly hardy, this rose can withstand temperatures as low as -20°C.
To plant your rose in a pot or open ground, prepare the soil to a depth of 25 cm (10in) by breaking up the soil and adding a base amendment such as blood, fish and bone at the bottom of the planting hole. Position your plant, remove it from its pot, and cover the top of the root ball with 3 cm (1in) of soil. Fill in the hole and water thoroughly to eliminate air pockets. Regular watering for a few weeks is necessary in dry weather to facilitate root establishment. Also, remember to provide your rose with a special rose fertiliser to stimulate flowering.
Regularly remove faded flowers throughout the season. To maintain a well-branched habit, maintenance is simple: after winter, remove the oldest branches (2-3 years old).
Roses are often marked or unsightly towards the end of summer, but this is not a problem for their development. These spots are not harmful to the rose, it is a natural phenomenon.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
