Woo bees with a<br />
pink rose bush<br />
Did you know that pink (as well as<br />
white, and yellow single and semidouble)<br />
roses are magnets for bees?<br />
With their exposed stamens and pistils,<br />
the pollen is always fresh, and the bees<br />
love it. Because roses have such a long<br />
flowering season, there are always<br />
flowers, and pollen, for the<br />
bees. Bonus ... they attract<br />
butterflies, too. Lovely!<br />
50 shades of pink …<br />
What’s the most popular rose colour? Pink, by<br />
a pretty mile. And while we haven’t actually<br />
counted, there could very well be 50 or more<br />
shades of pink roses. There’s certainly a pink<br />
for every mood ... soft and dreamy, playful and<br />
happy, flamboyant and feisty.<br />
Here are the newest pink roses:<br />
Pink Polo is a tall, vibrant pink rose that opens<br />
from a classically shaped bud into a sumptuous<br />
quartered bloom, the size of a side plate! The<br />
lightly fragrant blooms are carried on long,<br />
straight stems, so this is a really lovely picking<br />
rose. The bush grows to just above shoulder<br />
height. It is a white ribbon rose, and a portion<br />
of the sales go to CANSA Paarl.<br />
Manuela Crabbia is a nostalgia rose with<br />
huge blooms on strong stems that display<br />
many shades of pink. The silvery-pink broad<br />
outer petals are edged with carmine, and as<br />
the rose unfolds, the centre becomes a soft<br />
salmon pink.<br />
Colette Stella is the epitome of a dreamy<br />
pink rose, with a distinct rosy perfume. As the<br />
many-petalled blooms open into an antique<br />
cup shape, the petals become a deeper, warm<br />
pink. The two-metre high bush flowers from<br />
top to bottom.<br />
Nautica offers just a whisper of pink as an<br />
undertone to the soft lavender shades that<br />
become a silvery sheen as the rose opens. This<br />
is a classical hybrid-tea, with long-lasting large<br />
blooms on a tall, neatly upright growing bush.<br />
It provides an endless supply of blooms.<br />
Gloria Mthunzi has exquisitely shaped,<br />
exhibition-class hybrid tea blooms in a blend<br />
of pink, orange, and cream. The rose is tall and<br />
vigorous, standing out in a mixed border.<br />
Pop along to the Spring Rose<br />
Festival and indulge in all the floral<br />
senses. There will be displays of<br />
roses, tractor train rides through<br />
the roses, rosy refreshments, and a<br />
children’s playground among the<br />
roses. It’s happening at Ludwig’s<br />
Rose farm from Friday, <strong>Oct</strong>ober 2<br />
to Sunday, <strong>Oct</strong>ober 4. Entrance is<br />
free, and it’s well worth the drive.<br />
