How to Create a Rooftop Garden with Roses

Rooftops with Roses

Rooftops and balconies filled with roses are a wonderful sight. Plant in a container which suits your style and enjoy a plethora of colour and fragrance on any size of terrace. For a minimal look plant one colour in long, contemporary containers, or a deep, rich pink bloom will really catch the eye.

Alfresco Style

Bring home a touch of the Mediterranean by placing containers of vibrant roses close to your seating areas. The perfect spot for a leisurely latte or late night alfresco dining.

Fragrant Roof Terrace

Feel immersed in an English rose garden on your roof terrace by gathering pots of different sizes to make a collection, add a fragrant rose as the star of the show.


Contemporary Containers

Create a minimal look by planting a repeat flowering rose of a single colour in a long contemporary container to bring beauty and joy for many months.
