More about China roses:
First introduced from China in 1792, these roses were admired primarily for their repeat flowering capabilities. Furthermore they are famous for bringing crimson to the colour palette. They tend to be twiggy, giving them an elegant form, while their scent is strongly unique. Most importantly, China roses prefer to be in a sunny position.
Cecile Brunner, a.k.a The Sweetheart Rose, has miniature Hybrid Tea shaped blooms of pale pink, continuously in flower. With fairly sparse foliage, it forms a small bush. Ideal for a small garden, and perfect cut for buttonholes.
Pruning Guide: China roses tend to make small twiggy shrubs if left unpruned. Their slightly tender constitution means they are best placed in more sheltered positions. In smaller gardens they can be hard pruned to maintain a more compact plant.
