Groundcover rose ‘Suffolk’ for hanging baskets

Allyblueeyes · January 2022

Thank you both @raisingirl and @Jenny_Aster. I confess to have been researching roses half of the day! 😬

We’re great rugby fans so Sweet Chariot could well be a contender! I appreciate your input 🌹 x

I had wiltshire in a pot and it did well, I think that one could work. Nozomi too.

@JessicaS. Thank you so much. I’ve just googled Nozomi …. It’s beautiful! You’ve given me more food for thought! Much appreciated 🌹

I wanted to do 'Snow Ballet' in a hanging basket, but then just did a smallish pot (hanging basket size, maybe 5-7l?). It wasn't as floriferous as I would like but it grew well, I expect more this season. Because of the small pot, I am going to change the compost (and maybe root prune if needed), so maybe I could try a hanging basket this season. The downside is access for watering and deadheading.

That’s a pretty little rose @edhelka. I’d be interested to know where you bought it?

I think it isn't available in the UK. I got it from Tuincentrum Lottum for €4 - perfect for experiments like this.

Available in Italy
