Rosa Grace® 'Auskeppy'
Absolutely stunning flowers! Planted in a large pot upon arrival, it quickly adapted and has produced beautiful flowers all summer long, until mid-October, in waves. The arrangement of the petals is sublime. The young plant has a tender green foliage that is not very dense but remains vigorous. The bush remains of a modest size (just like the fragrances), but this rose quickly became a star on the terrace. Now, we just need to find a pot that matches its rank for next year."

Description
Easy to grow, even in a large pot, resistant and healthy, easy to associate, the English rose Grace is exceptional, but also ideal for beginners. This variety, which blooms repeatedly, displays perfect double flowers, in a beautiful apricot colour, darker in the centre, lighter on the edges. They release a deliciously warm and sensual fragrance that compliments them.
This bush wider than it is tall reaches about 1m (3ft) in height and 1.25m (4ft) in width at maturity. It has a well-branched habit and stems covered with glossy green foliage, particularly healthy. A worthy descendant of the Leander line, it has inherited its impeccable health. Its flexible growth consists of stems that are initially red, then green, from which large, well-formed roses of a subtle apricot tone, denser in the centre, will emerge. Its flowers succeed each other tirelessly, from summer to frost, with beautiful regularity and great reliability. They first open in the form of a cup, then gradually bloom to form a perfect rosette with gracefully upturned outer petals.
The English rose Grace has a shade that harmonises well with many other tones, especially deep reds and purples, with which it forms beautifully colourful scenes, creating a very warm atmosphere in the garden. It creates an elegant contrast with the single and changing flowers of the China rose 'Mutabilis' or with the single corollas, ranging from orange to copper, of Rosa foetida bicolor. It is also lovely next to the pansy flowers of the rose 'Blue Eyes'. Paired with the rose Golden Celebration or The Pilgrim, it is superb. Its modest growth allows it to work well in perennial beds, where it wonderfully accompanies perennial geraniums, dame's rocket, or purple toadflax. It also performs very well in pots.

Planting and care
Plant your English Rose Grace in a sunny or lightly shaded location. English roses are tolerant but do not like excessive limestone. They will adapt to any garden as long as the soil is well-worked and sufficiently rich. To plant your rose, prepare the soil by crumbling it and adding an amendment, such as bonemeal, at the bottom of the planting hole. Water abundantly after planting to remove air pockets. Water regularly for a few weeks to encourage root growth. Pruning English roses is essential for flowering. At the end of winter, shorten the branches to 3-5 buds above the ground (at the lowest level), choosing an outward-facing bud for a more elegant habit. Take advantage of this pruning to remove dead wood and unsightly branches. Pruning is done at an angle above a bud. As the flowers bloom, remove faded flowers to stimulate the development of other buds.
Roses are often spotted or unsightly in late summer, but it 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).

In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
