Billed as one of the best red roses is the Munstead Wood released in 2010.It starts off light crimson,before turning a deep velvety crimson in the centre.Bushy and quite disease resistant,it features mid-green foliage and flowers with a fruity fragrance that has been compared to blackberries and blueberries.The young leaves are an attractive red-bronze color.
It needs to be placed in full sun,its height is 1.5m and width is 1m.It is suitable for large pots,fertilise it in spring/mid-summer and it needs a light trim after flowering.
Another new flower is the Petchoas.They're a cross between petunias and calibrachoas and form a well-branched spreading plant to about 60cm wide with blooms in a range of colors,from spring through to autumn.
