Your front yard is the perfect stage for picturesque bed, shrub and climbing roses. This guide is packed with ideas on how to integrate the queen of flowers into the front yard design. A solid planting plan with a creative combination of roses and perennials wants to fire your imagination.

Roses in the front yard are a very special feast for the eyes

Roses like to hold court here in the front yard - ideas for the design

The wide variety of species and varieties has the perfect rose for every garden style. In the modern front garden, white blooming roses set decorative accents alongside slender grass. Lushly filled ornamental shrub roses in bright colors embellish the romantic country house garden. The following design ideas would like to inspire you:

  • On the trellis of the entrance gate as a floral welcoming committee
  • Dark-flowering varieties as a backdrop for light-flowering flowers to create visual depth
  • As an elegantly blooming enclosure that does not block the visitor's view

Ornamental shrub roses inspire with bushy, stiffly upright growth up to 120 cm in height and repeated blooms throughout the year. These types of roses and varieties are therefore predestined to provide floral moments of happiness as solitaires in the front garden.

Idyllic composition of roses and perennials - a planting plan as food for thought

Using the following exemplary planting plan, we would like to demonstrate how you can skillfully integrate roses into the design of your front yard:

  • Along the house facade, under the windows, the shrub rose 'Zaide' presents its full, dark pink flowers
  • The entrance is flanked by the shrub rose 'Fastaff' with seductively scented, crimson flowers
  • Square bed edgings made of boxwood give the front garden structure
  • In 2 of the mini beds, the bed roses 'Apple Blossom' and 'Cherry Girl' boast white or red flowers
  • Perennials such as magnificent candles (Gaura), lavender (Lavendula) or foxgloves (Digitalis) thrive in the other mini beds.

Narrow paths with gravel and natural stone slabs invite you to stroll and make maintenance work easier. Only the curved entrance to the front door has a width of 120 cm.

tips

In the front yard without a lawn, small roses are useful as a flowering ground cover. Special ground cover roses are characterized by a slightly creeping growth, so that they effectively suppress weeds at the same time. A prime example of this task is 'Knirps', which, with a width of 60 cm, grows to a height of 20 cm and blooms several times a year with lush, pink flowers.
