Thanks to the individuals (for order preparation & quality control and shipping service), the rose bush I received appears to be healthy. Planted on the edge of a rockery, near many other plants of the same species. Now I'm waiting for it to establish...Note: Received without a variety label (essential for identifying the rose bush in all seasons).

Description
The 'Blossomtime' Rose is certainly a modern hybrid variety of tea, but its generosity and the fragrance of its roses, which are highly double and have a fresh pink candy colour, bring it closer to old-fashioned roses. Its romantically picturesque roses are wide, with a perfect modern rose pattern, very raised due to its two pink colours, a very fresh pink doubled with silver pink. Forming a large bush, if left free, it can also be trained as a small climber on a wall or arbour. It is also a sturdy, perpetual flowering plant of great class, ideal for a romantic and fragrant garden!
The climbing rose 'Blossomtime' is part of the complex family of hybrid teas, also called large-flowered roses. It is an American creation dating back to 1951, full of qualities. It is a sarmentous rose with beautiful vigour. It has a flexible habit and thorny stems, reaching a height of 1.50m (5ft) and a width of 1m (3ft), and up to 2.50m (8ft) in height if trained on a support. The flowering occurs from June to October in successive waves, depending on the climatic conditions. Long, elegant, pointed buds, surrounded by green bracts, open into large double roses, 9 cm (4in) wide, formed by 20 to 39 tightly packed petals of a light and vivid pink. They form a well-rounded heart, revealing their silvery lining. The petals, initially curled up, open like English roses in quarters. They are grouped in beautiful, particularly fragrant bouquets of 5 to 8. Its deciduous foliage, green and glossy, is healthy and perfectly highlights the porcelain hue of the flowers. This bush performs well in hot regions, with adequate watering.
'Blossomtime' is a charming, generous and easy-to-grow rose. Left free, it forms a precious and highly ornamental bush in the background of a flowerbed. It is easy to train on a pole, a small arbour, a slightly shaded wall, or a column. Like other large roses, such as Iceberg or Palais Royal, with which it pairs well, it is incomparable for giving a slightly abandoned look to overly strict flowerbeds. It is an ideal companion for an old fruit tree, a small pillar, and the cabins to which it adds a lot of charm. Trained on an arch near the terrace, it will create a poetic and fragrant passage. It is easy to maintain a bushy habit, but it can also be planted in a mixed hedge alongside viburnums, mock oranges, hibiscus, or lilacs.

Planting and care
The 'Blossomtime' rose should be planted between November and March in well-drained and well-cultivated soil. Roses prefer clay soils that are rather heavy than light. If the soil is excessively sandy, compact or dry in summer, it's best to bury compost, decomposed manure, or compost at the bottom of the planting hole. However, this rose fears waterlogged soils in winter, so be sure to avoid them. Place the rose in a sunny location or partial shade. Roses require a lot of nutrients, so it's recommended to apply specific fertiliser at the start of vegetation and regularly throughout the flowering period. To encourage repeat flowering, it's important to regularly remove faded flowers. Floribunda rose varieties are more vigorous and floriferous than large-flowered varieties. Therefore, in late winter, prune the stems by about a quarter of their length (from 4 to 6 buds from the base of the stem). Always prune above an outward-facing bud to allow the bush to fill out and prevent the branches from tangling in the centre of the plant.
Roses may develop unsightly stains towards the end of summer, but this is a natural occurrence and does not harm the growth of the rose.

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.
