While the flowers of Cinderella Roses are tiny, the bush is quite substantial. The bush can reach three feet in height which makes it a good choice for a small hedge. In our hot climate the flowers are mostly white, but in cooler climates and in early spring in warmer climates, the flowers have more of a blush of pink. So many roses on each bush make this a very striking ornamental plant. |

Cinderella Miniature Rose is ideally suited for hedging. It easily reaches three feet or more but takes well to shearing into shapes. It is also thornless which makes it nice in the mixed perennial garden or in a garden where children are present. Like all roses, miniature roses are sun loving and fairly drought resistant. Plant in well drained soil and fertilize with an organic fertilizer in the spring. We prune out dead canes whenever we notice them and shape the plant to the height and width we want in fall. All rose petals are edible if grown organically and make attractive garnishes for salads. They can be added after cooking to almost any dish. Whole buds can be used to decorate cakes or other confections. Sample buds should be pulled apart and inspected for insects before using on food. The book How to Eat a Rose provides more on using roses in culinary pursuits. Cinderella Miniature Rose would make a great addition to our Kid's Herb Garden. |
