Rose de Rescht at a glance
The 'Rose de Rescht', a rose with a rich history rooted in distant Persia or France and brought to England by Miss Nancy Lindsay in the 1940s, is a true treasure for any garden. Its deep purple to lilac-hued, very full flowers unfurl into a perfect rosette shape and release an enchanting, intense damask fragrance that fills the air with classic charm. This rare, old-fashioned rose is a timeless beauty that tells a story in every flower.
As a compact shrub rose (0.5 - 1m), the 'Rose de Rescht' is a versatile addition. It looks beautiful in borders and beds, as well as in a spacious pot on your balcony or patio, where its repeat-flowering nature and rich fragrance can be fully appreciated. In addition, this rose is attractive to bees and butterflies, contributing to a vibrant and biodiverse garden.
At Belle Époque Rozenkwekerij, a family-run business with more than 40 years of passion and craftsmanship, you can buy the 'Rose de Rescht' directly from the grower. We guarantee you a top-quality rose, cultivated with care and sustainability in the heart of Aalsmeer. Choose authenticity and the expertise of generations of rose growers.
