Potted roses are supplied in a 5.5 litre pot.

(Hybrid Teas) Large, fully double blooms of luminous primrose yellow, delicately edged with soft blush pink, make this one of the most recognisable and enduring roses in cultivation, flowering generously from midsummer well into autumn. Its rich, glossy foliage provides a handsome backdrop to the sweetly scented flowers, which carry an air of quiet magnificence. Few roses carry a more poignant story — named to mark the end of World War II, Peace has become a universal symbol of hope and reconciliation.

Frequently asked questions

Bare-root Peace roses are best planted during their dormant season, from November to March, which is also when we dispatch them. Potted roses are grown in containers and can be planted at any time of year — just avoid periods of hard frost or drought, and water thoroughly after planting.

Every rose we sell is covered by our 1-year Rose Guarantee, so you can plant Peace with confidence. See our Rose Guarantee page for the full details.

Often, yes — we grow our roses ourselves and stock varies through the season, so a variety that's sold out can come back. Use the "Notify me" button above to be emailed the moment Peace is back in stock.

Peace's mature growth range is 135cm x 90cm (4.5ft x 3ft). Growing conditions such as soil, sunlight, feeding and pruning can affect the final size, so treat this as a guide rather than an exact figure.

Hybrid Tea roses have the classic, elegant rose shape: large, high-centred blooms carried mostly one to a stem, ideal for cutting and for a more formal look in the garden. They typically repeat-flower reliably from early summer into autumn.

Peace is a Hybrid Tea rose.
