Meilland climbing rose 'Mon Jardin et ma Maison' (14cm pot)

A rose bush is essential in any garden, terrace, or balcony. They are extraordinary shrubs, always elegant and highly versatile. They fit various styles, adapt well to different soil types, and, besides a few hours of direct sun per day, need little else to beautify gardens, flowerbeds, and planters. Roses are part of the essence of the typical Portuguese garden. Meilland roses make up the largest collection of hybrid rose varieties created by the House of Meilland in France, which has been producing and selling them for over 100 years. They grow relatively quickly and offer abundant, colorful blooms, usually from early spring to late autumn. Check specific information about this variety below.

The Mon Jardin et ma Maison rose is a beautiful miniature climbing rose, named after the famous French gardening magazine. Meilland Richardier sought to create a rose variety that wouldn’t take up too much space while adding a romantic, natural, and charming touch to house facades or romantic garden paths. The flowers are dense and cup-shaped. The petal edges are pure white, while the center displays a creamy tone reminiscent of tea roses. As the color matures, it fades to a pale lemon pink, adding depth and character to the flower at every stage of its opening. Flowers usually appear singly or in clusters of up to six, creating a striking visual contrast with the lush, dark green foliage. This variety is exceptionally disease-resistant, ensuring long-lasting beauty in gardens.

CUIDADOS
Light: Full sun (without about 6 hours of direct sun/day, it won’t bloom or develop well).
Temperature: Roses are well-adapted to our temperate climate. They enjoy temperatures between 15ºC and 28ºC but handle lower temperatures well (down to -20°C).
Watering: Moderate – after planting, during the first summer, and during flowering seasons. Reduce watering in winter – if outdoors, let the rain handle it (only water if there’s a prolonged dry spell).
Fertilization: Use a suitable rose fertilizer in spring-summer, following the product label instructions.
Pruning: Like most roses, this variety handles pruning well. You should remove dry/damaged branches and wilted flowers to promote blooming and maintain the desired shape. Pruning should be done in late winter or early spring.
Soil: They adapt well to various soil/substrate types, provided they are light and rich in organic matter (they love humus). The soil should be well-drained as they don’t tolerate waterlogging.
Pet Friendly: Most roses themselves are not considered toxic to pets. However, if ingested, the thorns can cause serious injury.

Tip: Roses don’t like excessive wind exposure, but the chosen spot should be airy to prevent fungi on leaves and flowers.
