Bred by the famous Kordes Rose Nursery in 2010, Joie de Vivre is a floribunda rose with glossy green foliage with a profusion of glorious large ruffled flowers of a delicate pale peachy pink. These beautiful roses have a gentle sweet fragrance making them ideal for planting close to a path, patio or a window. They are also a good cut flower giving beauty to an arrangement.

This classic rosette rose grows in clusters and the beautifully formed large flowers bloom in flushes throughout the season.

Joie de Vivre won the prestigious Rose of the Year in 2011 as well as other awards and is one of the best roses ever to receive this award. The mature foliage is a deep green and likes sun and fertile well drained soil. It is a fast growing disease resistant rose, easy to grow in the garden and does well in a pot. (Use multi-purpose compost such as John Innes Number 3.)

Repeat flowering from about June to late September. It can be pruned in late autumn or March/April, (depending on frost).
