<strong>Country</strong> <strong>Garden</strong> <strong>Roses</strong>. Is There A Rose With Your Name On It ?<br />
HARRY (Harry Wheatcroft) See Harry<br />
HELEN (Helen Knight) (Shrub Rose)<br />
This rose bears 5 petalled, saucer shaped, bright yellow flowers of small to medium size.<br />
They appear in profusion in late spring or early summer to create a picture of beauty against, arching,<br />
reddish stems and light green, fern like foliage.<br />
It should be only summer flowering, but for many years we have seen quite a good show of blooms<br />
later in the year.<br />
It is one of the first roses to bloom in the spring and heralds the new rose season.<br />
The plant can be grown as a free standing shrub, and is best left to grow naturally without having to be<br />
pruned, apart from the removal of dead or crossing branches. It can also be trained upwards against a wall as it tends<br />
to grow taller and wider than the average shrub rose.<br />
Although it is hardy, it is best to avoid a very frosty position.<br />
Named after the wife of Frank Knight of the Royal Horticultural Society <strong>Garden</strong>s at Wisley.<br />
Royal Horticultural Society Award Of <strong>Garden</strong> Merit 1994<br />
HELMUT (Helmut Schmidt) (Hybrid Tea Rose)<br />
The large pointed buds of this variety give promise of big flowers to come, and they are beauties.<br />
The urn shaped young blooms develop high centres around which the outer petals are arranged<br />
with wonderful symmetry.<br />
They usually appear one per strong, upright stem, which makes the variety an excellent cutting<br />
rose, especially as the blooms hold their shape and last well in water.<br />
It is a good rose for general garden use, flowering on through summer and autumn though tending<br />
to produce a flush of bloom followed by a pause.<br />
The plant grows neat and upright to slightly below average height, with matt green foliage.<br />
A very healthy rose with good disease resistance. Scented<br />
Named after the former German chancellor. Helmut Schmidt.<br />
Also known as Simba' in the UK. 'Simba' is the Swahili word for lion’ & 'Goldsmith' in the USA<br />
Bred by Kordes in Germany<br />
