Floribunda Rose
Thanks to the individuals (for order preparation and shipping), the bare-root rose received appears to be healthy. Planted near the 'Molineux' variety, I am now patiently waiting for it to take root... (or not?)

Description
The 'Auguste Escoffier' Rose, dedicated to the most famous chef of his time, is a truly exceptional Meilland variety. Combining the charm of old-fashioned roses with the floribundity of modern roses, it offers beautiful roses that evoke the colour and sweet almond scent of the most famous creation of Auguste Escoffier: the peach melba. The bush is very healthy and its vegetation is well balanced, offering an abundance of flowers until late autumn. Its excellent disease resistance and compact habit make it a versatile rose that thrives in all regions, both in the garden and in a large pot. And its flowers are perfect in romantic bouquets.
The 'Auguste Escoffier' Rose is a floribunda bush rose with large clustered flowers, introduced in 2020 by the rose breeder Meilland. This creation won the 1st Prize of Horticultural Students in Lyon in 2018 and the Grand Prix SNHF (National Horticultural Society of France) in 2021. With a bushy and harmonious habit, it reaches an average height of 90 cm (35in) and a spread of 50 cm (20in) at maturity, with rapid growth. It produces strong, thorny branches that bear beautiful foliage divided into large toothed leaflets of a semi-matte medium green. This foliage is slightly tinged with bronze-red on the young shoots. Throughout the summer, and until October if faded flowers are removed, the plant produces waves of 8 cm (3in) flowers, clustered in small bouquets of 2 to 5 units, with a quartered old-fashioned shape. They are composed of about forty petals that evolve from peach-orange to apricot and raspberry-pink, surrounding a golden heart. Together, they create a beautiful gradient throughout the plant. Their fragrance is light. The deciduous foliage persists on the plant until late in the season, but is absent in winter.
The 'Auguste Escoffier' rose is superb in mass plantings, in groups of 5 specimens, in large monochrome borders, or in combination with white or orange roses. It also blends well with light shrubs, perennials, and annuals such as delphiniums, campanulas, paniculate phlox, or tall foxgloves. It can be effectively showcased in front of a boxwood or yew hedge, or alternatively surrounded by a miniature hedge or a carefully designed maze, as in Italian or French gardens. At its base, one can plant a herbaceous clematis with blue flowers, such as Clematis heracleifolia, or a Sollya heterophylla in milder climates. This variety also adapts very well to being grown in a large pot for ornamenting terraces and balconies. Finally, its roses are stunning in bouquets, combined with lilies and hydrangeas in summer or with asters in autumn.

Planting and care
To plant your 'Auguste Escoffier' rose, work the soil to a depth of 25 cm (10in), crumble the soil well and place a base amendment such as dried blood or dehydrated horn at the bottom of the planting hole. Position your plant, freed from its pot, covering the top of the root ball with 3 cm (1in) of soil. Fill in the hole and water thoroughly to eliminate air pockets. In dry weather, it is necessary to water regularly for a few weeks to facilitate root growth. Also, remember to provide your rose with special rose fertiliser that stimulates plant flowering.

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.
