For fairytale moments: combine bed roses

What factors should be considered when combining bed roses?

In order to underline the bed roses in their splendor, you should consider the following factors when combining:

• flower color: white, yellow, apricot, pink, red or violet
• heyday: June to September
• Location Requirements: sunny, permeable and nutrient-rich soil
• growth height: 50 to 80 cm

When planting and combining bed roses, note the growth height to be achieved. This can vary depending on the variety. Smaller companion plants should be placed in front of the bed roses, while partners of the same height can be at a dignified distance from the bed roses at about the same height.

Other flowering shrubs and flowering perennials go well with the bed roses if they also display their flowers in summer and complement or gently caress the color of the roses.

You should focus on the location requirements of the bed roses when choosing companion plants. Although roses like sunny locations, they cannot cope with drought and a lack of nutrients.

Simultaneous flowering is also exciting, as it creates an impressive play of colors. But grasses also impress in combination with bed roses.
