Pierre de Ronsard Rose (Rosa Eden)

Also known as

MELviolin, Eden Rose, Renaissance Rose

The Pierre de Ronsard Rose is a charming and elegant flower that pays homage to the renowned French poet Pierre de Ronsard (1524-1585). This exquisite rose variety was named in his honour, as Ronsard dedicated a poem to a wild rose in his work. The Pierre de Ronsard Rose features large, double blooms with a delightful blend of pink, cream, and green hues, creating a visually stunning display reminiscent of the romanticism and beauty that characterised Ronsard's poetry

Pierre de Ronsard rose care

Caring for the Pierre de Ronsard Rose involves a combination of attention to soil, water, sunlight, and pruning to ensure the health and vitality of this exquisite flower. Planting in well-draining soil enriched with organic matter is crucial for optimal growth. These roses thrive in a location with at least six hours of sunlight daily. 

Adequate watering, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, is essential, especially during hot and dry periods. Regular fertilisation during the growing season promotes robust blooming. 

Additionally, pruning should be done in late winter or early spring to remove dead or damaged wood, encourage new growth, and shape the plant.

Frequently asked questions

With over four decades of gardening knowledge, the All Green team is well-equipped to address any inquiries you may have.

What is a climbing rose?

A climbing rose grows long, flexible canes and can be trained to climb a wall, fence, pillar, or other structure. Unlike most shrub rose plants, which have a bushy growth habit, climbing roses have long, arching canes that can grow up to 6 meters or more in length. 
Climbing roses are generally hardy and easy to grow, and they can add a beautiful vertical element to any garden or landscape. However, they require some support and may need regular pruning to keep them in check and promote healthy growth.

How do you prune a Pierre de Ronsard climbing rose?

Pruning a Pierre de Ronsard climbing rose is essential to keep the plant healthy and to encourage abundant flowering. Ensure you prune your rose in late winter or early spring, just before the plant produces new growth. Start by removing dead or damaged wood and spindly growth. Tie the remaining canes to a support, such as a trellis or fence, so they grow in one direction. If any canes have grown excessively long, prune them back by about one-third to promote branching and encourage the growth of new flower buds.

What are Pierre de Ronsard roses used for?

Although known as a pillar rose, and ideal for outdoor structures, the standard pink or red Pierre de Ronsard rose can be used for various purposes. This includes garden decorations, cut flowers, gifts and more. Overall, Pierre de Ronsard roses are prized for their beauty, fragrance, and versatility and can be used in various ways to enhance the beauty of any setting.

Do Pierre de Ronsard roses have a fragrance?

Yes, Pierre de Ronsard roses are known for their delightful fragrance. These roses typically emit a sweet and romantic scent, adding an extra layer of charm to their already beautiful appearance. The fragrance of Pierre de Ronsard roses enhances the overall sensory experience and makes them a popular choice for gardeners and flower enthusiasts who appreciate not only visual beauty but also the sweet aroma of these pale pink blooms deepening.
