Rose 'Belle sans Flatterie'

Prune lightly directly after flowering and feed twice a year with well rotted manure or blood fish and bone, in early spring and mid summer

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Belle sans Flatterie is thought of as hardy, so this plant will survive close to or on freezing temperatures.

Not usually grown from seed, but easy from semi ripe cuttings with a heel in the summer or late spring

Dig a hole wide enough to take all the roots and deep enough to allow the graft to be covered with 5cm of soil. Back fill with soil dug from the hole enriched with well rotted manure or blood fish and bone
Happy in clay

As Belle sans Flatterie is hardy, ensure temperatures are mild enough to plant out - wait until after your last frost date to be on the safe side.

Summer flowering, cut early in the morning for arranging in a vase. Trim off the foliage that would be under the water

This variety tends to be ready for harvesting by mid summer.

Beauty without untruth
