English Rose 'Queen of Sweden' (Rosa 'Queen of Sweden'). Refined and majestic, the English Rose 'Queen of Sweden' captivates with its perfectly symmetrical, cupped flowers, a satin pale pink that softens with time. Each flower emits a delicate myrrh fragrance, subtle but charming. Its upright, compact, and well-branched habit (approximately 100 to 120 cm) makes it a perfect choice for formal beds, low hedges, or linear plantings. It stands out with its almost vertical stems, ideal for creating a structured silhouette.

To plant the English rose 'Queen of Sweden', choose a suitable exposure: full sun or at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day. The recommended soil is rich, well-drained soil. Water at the base and allow air to circulate between the branches. Remove dead parts with a clean tool, then adapt pruning to the rose's group. Winter protection depends on its hardiness and the potential presence of a graft union. Water the root ball before planting it and check that water can drain after planting.

Allow a width of 90 cm (3 feet) to arrange this plant's space in the garden. The indicated height of 130 cm (4 feet) helps in choosing its position relative to neighboring plants. Maintain access to the base for weeding, checking moisture, and removing damaged parts. Combine this variety with plants whose light and water needs are compatible. If you are considering a container, first check that its volume and drainage are suitable for root development. Roots in pots are more exposed to cold than those planted in the ground.
