Give a rose for Christmas; your friend or family member will enjoy it for many years to come
Rosa 'Hot Chocolate' is a firm favourite at Perch Hill. It's a beautiful copper brown and flowers profusely, right through to October.
All rose petals are edible. As you might expect, they have a mild, floral taste and can be used to decorate cakes, puddings or baking. They are also a beautiful, scented addition to jugs of iced cordial or summer cocktails.
