The normal growth of the moon season requires more than 6 hours of direct sunlight, but I think this condition is really difficult for many flower friends in China to achieve, at least I can't reach it, all year round, the sun is very little. I want to see the flowers, and there is no sunlight, under this condition, I can only choose some shade-tolerant varieties.
The shade-tolerant ≠ yin-loving, and the performance of most months and seasons is better than semi-shade.
Shade tolerance does not mean that there is no sunlight at all, but that these seasonal varieties are less affected by semi-shady conditions, and semi-shady environments also have 4-6 hours of direct light or slightly shaded light throughout the day.
It's not easy to plant a good moon season, it's not easy!
If you really can't reach this semi-yin environment, you can only lower your expectations!
There are still a lot of shade-tolerant varieties of the moon, here are some shade-tolerant, fragrant and disease-resistant varieties of the moon, let's see what's there!
林肯先生 Mister Lincoln
When you think of the classic red rose, you inevitably think of Mr. Lincoln.
The variety is still widely known and popular today, and it has also won the National Rose Awards, the highest honor bestowed on roses in the United States, and has been featured in previous editions of "Mister Lincoln, the Rich Variety of the Red Moon Season."
The large, thick petals slowly open and the petals are perfectly swirled, and when the flowers are fully open, the outer petals are the darkest in color, while the petals closer to the center are brighter.
It tolerates the summer heat well and is also known as the "California Drought-Tolerant Rose."
When the roses are in full bloom, the garden is filled with a strong scent of roses, which can be smelled throughout the yard.
Due to its toughness and adaptability, it has also become the preferred choice for grafted rootstocks.
This rose will also reappear in abandoned gardens, and guess where it might appear...... If you say in the shade, you're right!
亚伯拉·罕达比 Abraham Darby
Abraham Darby is one of David Austin's most popular roses.
Large, deep cup-shaped, sweet apricot flowers with yellow inner petals and pink outer petals exude an irresistible rich aroma with hints of strawberries in the nose.
This is Abraham Darby, who has been planted by a netizen for 7 years, and all 3 plants are closely arranged together.
Abraham Darby in the shadows is driving just right!
玛格丽特王妃 Crown Princess Margareta
I have introduced Princess Margareta "Strong Fragrance Yellow Moon Season - Princess Margaret Crown Princess Margareta", a moon season variety cultivated by David Austin in the United Kingdom, which produces large clusters of neatly shaped apricot orange rosettes, with a strong fruity aroma, strong resistance, and can be vine and shrub, which is a very popular variety!
Princess Margaret, planted in the shade of the tree, has lush flowers and leaves, and the effect is very good!
权杖之岛 Scepter'd Isle
A small, free-blooming shrub rose with soft pink flowers with a rich myrrh scent.
Scepter Island has a rare myrrh scent that is only found in English roses and one or two Ayrshire Ramblers, and this scent has also won it a Royal National Rose Society Award.
There is no drug smell, those who like it like it very much, and those who don't like it find it difficult to top!
This beautiful rose has many cup-shaped flowers, each with golden stamens.
It is a short, bushy, erect shrub with flowers that grow elegantly above the leaves.
David Austin classifies the Isle of Scepters as an English musk rose, and the roses in this classification are related to the ancient Novaset rose and the hybrid musk rose.
粉云 New Dawn
A light pink vine variety discovered in 1930 by the Somerset Rose Nursery in New Jersey.
It produces clusters of fragrant, medium-sized, silvery soft pink flowers that darken toward the center.
Its scent has been described as a nice apple scent, and I love this tone of rose.
This vigorous rose has good disease resistance and can tolerate poor soil and partial shade.
黄金庆典 Golden Celebration
This is one of David Austin's best varieties of the moon.
Huge, cup-shaped, intense yellow flowers, delicate aromas, bright green shiny leaves make it ideal for many garden owners.
Intense tea aroma with a perfect blend of wine and strawberry aromas.
It can thrive in the shade and even grow in complete shade.
园艺王子 Prince Gardener
It's a delicate shade of pale pink, an ultra-romantic scent, and the flowers bloom extraordinarily gorgeously. This is also the one I have recommended before, "My Dream Flower! Prince Jardinier".
The soft and swirling velvet petals open large enough to expose the pollen in the center, and when it opens, it forms an almost saucer-shaped flower.
Its uniqueness lies in its fragrance, with each full-bodied white and pink flower giving off a rich aroma of ancient roses, with fruity notes of citrus, lychee and raspberry.
Most of the netizens who have planted it have reported that it grows in some shady places and performs very well.
Its beauty is matched by its strong disease resistance, and it has also passed the prestigious ADR test in Germany.
Make sure to leave space for this plant, it can reach 2 meters tall, but only 60cm wide, and of course, it won't grow that tall in the shade.
优丝塔夏·福爱 Eustacia Vye
Cultivated by David Austin and named after the beautiful heroine of Thomas Hardy's classic story Homecoming, this bush rose has small clusters of huge, plump, fruity apricot pink flowers.
The soft, shiny apricot pink flowers are all covered with many gracefully curved petals, and the cup-shaped flowers on the red stems open into full rosette clusters with richly colored petals that fade over time.
Intensely fruity, the aroma is delicious - citrus, musk and fruity notes.
This 1.2-meter-tall shrub thrives in zones 4 to 11, it is disease resistant and does not mind spending some time in the shade.
波莱罗 Bolero
A gorgeous, compact flowering season with milky white flowers and dense petals, much like old-fashioned roses, has also been introduced in previous articles "Friends push the shade-tolerant, abundant white fragrance of the moon season - Bolero".
The center of the bud first takes on a delicate peachy pink color, then gradually turns white, and when the flower is fully open, its color changes to milky white, and the flowers are beautiful at each stage.
The aroma is truly stunning, rich rose aroma with hints of spices and citrus fruits, and I have also smelled sweet lychees.
Planted in a shady place, it also blooms continuously.
紫袍玉带 Baron Girod de l'Ain
This fragrant old rose variety produces very large, deep red flowers.
Multiple double-petaled red roses form delicate and lively crimson lace, and the messy petal edges of these roses turn white, like the border of snow.
This kind of moon season likes to stay in a cool place and is very shade-tolerant.
Don't give up on your dreams just because the sun isn't ideal, and don't believe that you'll regret it if you plant it in the shade, it's true that very few moons thrive where there is no light, but only some dappled light?3-4 hours of light?
