Rosa chinensis var. minima Angel Rose
A Rose from Seed that Blooms in as Little as 3 Months! Why pay top dollar for Rose bushes when you can grow your own quickly and beautifully with Angel Rose? This improved strain of the renowned Baby and Fairy Rose types germinates readily, grows vigorously, and BLOOMS the first season from a spring sowing! You will love its compact habit and lovely flowers . . . and you can grow an entire garden of Roses for just pennies a plant! Angel Rose is a miniature variety, reaching just 15 to 26 inches high and 12 to 15 inches wide. Find a choice container or a prominent front-and-center spot in the sunny border for this long-lived shrub, which sets exquisite double, semi-double, and single blooms measuring about 2 inches wide. The flower color shades from rose to pink to white, a palette of antique hues that will delight you. And it has true Old Rose vigor, blooming from early summer into mid-fall! (The first year, the flowers may begin a bit later, depending on how long your growing season is.) If you can bear to part with them, you might want to grow these Roses as gifts for friends. Just pot them up at transplant time, keep them fed, watered, and drenched in sunshine, and they will establish quickly. Who wouldn't want a little Rose for Mother's or Father's Day, a birthday, or even Christmas? (The shrub will be dormant in winter, but any gardener will thrill to its bare silhouette in a beautiful container, knowing the riches to come!) And they make splendid hostess gifts, blooming over the 4th of July in most climates, lasting into football season in some, and delighting their recipients everywhere! Here's how to grow your Angel Rose: Drop the seeds into the bio-sponges of a Jumbo 40-cell or Whopper 18-cell Bio Dome, or sow in seed flats, covering them lightly with vermiculite or sand. (If you're using the Bio Dome, covering the seed is not necessary.) Keep the medium moist but not wet, bottom-watering the tray if using the Bio Dome. High humidity is a plus, so keep the dome on your Bio Dome with the ventilation slats closed, or cover seed flats with plastic wrap until the seeds germinate, which should take 20 to 30 days at a temperature of 65 to 68 degrees F. Grow on a bit warmer (68 to 72 degrees F is ideal, but whatever your room temperature is, that will probably work well!), pinching the seedlings twice to improve the branching. Transfer the young shrub into the garden when the soil is thoroughly warm in spring and the seedling has several sets of true leaves. It's just that easy!! Angel Rose is hardy in zones 4-9. Packet is 20 seeds.
