Companion Perennials for Roses

We are frequently asked what plants can be grown beneath rose bushes. So for those with this question, here is a selection of hardy perennials we grow that are low enough to put below your roses, and tall enough to grow between or behind. This collection of flowering plants delivered to your door includes some of the most popular flowers from our online plant nursery, especially for local pollinators. They pair very well with roses of any colour and bring  Please take a note of the plants in this collection when you order from our online plant nursery, as by the time you receive them they may have changed.  Featured plants run approximately from tallest (top left hand corner) to shortest (bottom right hand corner). If you fertilise your roses, remember that perennials do not like a lot of manure or heavily fertilising. This can cause the plants to put too much growth on and fail to flower, or rot in worst case scenarios.
