Rosa Lady X Half standard
€30.00
Description
Elegant, romantic, and beautifully “finished”, Rosa ‘Lady X’ as a half standard gives you that instant, structured look you usually only get in mature gardens. Raised on a clear stem with a rounded head of foliage and flowers, it’s perfect for framing doorways, lining a path, or adding height and formality to a mixed border—without losing that soft, classic rose charm.
Expect a generous summer display and a plant that looks stunning even when it’s not in full bloom, simply because the shape is so good.

How to plant & care (Caragh Garden Notebook)
- Planting (in ground): Enrich the soil with compost and plant so the graft union is secure. Water in well.
- Planting (in a pot): Choose a large, heavy container for stability, with good drainage. Use a quality compost and water consistently in summer.
- Support: Stake the stem to protect it from wind rock—especially in exposed gardens or containers.
- Feeding: Rose feed in spring, then again mid-season to keep flowers coming.
- Pruning: In late winter/early spring, prune to maintain a balanced, rounded head and encourage fresh flowering shoots.
Styling tip
Underplant with lavender, nepeta, hardy geraniums, or seasonal bulbs for a layered, high-end look—soft at the base, with roses floating above.
