A lovely little rose bush that blooms gently despite being in a very shady spot. The fruits are very decorative.

Description
The botanical bush Rosa glauca owes its success to its magnificent foliage. On its leaves with bluish or purplish reflections depending on the exposure, stand out very pink flowers that are quite charming. Next come the decorative red and shiny fruits that remain on the bush for a good part of the winter. Its flowers will attract the sympathy of bees, and its fruits will attract hungry birds in winter.
This bush is very vigorous and will thrive in sunny and semi-shade conditions. When combined with other bushes in a flower bed, its foliage will provide interesting contrasts. When planted alone, it will fully develop and use its natural charm to seduce you even more.
Rosa glauca or rubrifolia is a botanical species, meaning it exists as it is in nature. This rose bush is native to the mountains of central Europe. Despite the simplicity of its flowers, Rosa glauca has nothing to envy of cultivated roses, as it has received the prestigious Garden Merit award from the Royal Horticultural Society of England.

Planting and care
Plant your glaucous botanical rose in a semi-shaded or sunny position. Roses are tolerant but will not appreciate an excess of limestone. They will adapt to any garden as long as the soil is well worked and rich enough. This rose is not particularly susceptible to diseases, so if you notice spotted or affected leaves, remove them without delay. To plant your rose, work the soil by crumbling it and place an amendment, such as dried blood or dehydrated horn, at the bottom of the planting hole. Water generously after planting to eliminate any air pockets. Water regularly for a few weeks to facilitate rooting.
Roses are often stained or unsightly at 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.
Pruning Rosa glauca is not necessary but can help maintain a compact habit from one year to the next. As it is very vigorous, there is no need to prune it severely. Prune in spring after the risk of frost. Take the opportunity to remove dead wood and aerate the centre of the bush a bit. For pruning, choose an eye that points outward and make a slanted cut just above it. Above all, do not remove faded flowers, as this would deprive you of decorative fruits.

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).
