Planting with Pink Roses
Planting with Pink Roses
Pink is the master of adaptability. Simply by planting with different combinations of pink roses you can create a myriad of styles. Create soft sugary pathways flanked by delicate blossom pinks, plant a fun, fruity border with fuchsia and orange, or take a more regal approach to pink by combining rich magentas and red-pink jewel tones. Classic and forever a firm favourite, pink is the colour that comes in every shade imaginable.
