Green & Rose

Green and rose creates the RHS Garden Wisley Rosa canina scientific horticulture combination — because RHS Garden Wisley (Wisley, Woking, Surrey, GU23 6QB, England, the most important and the most scientifically comprehensive Royal Horticultural Society garden, the flagship garden of the Royal Horticultural Society / RHS established as a RHS garden in 1903, 97 hectares, approximately 1 million annual visitors — the most scientifically comprehensive single horticultural garden in England, housing the most extensive rose trial gardens in Great Britain, including the most comprehensively documented Rosa canina and species-rose collection in any British horticultural institution) creates the most specifically RHS-scientific-horticultural and the most precisely Surrey-garden-botanical green-and-rose warm-neutral-cool through the combination of the botanical-green of the most extensive fern and botanical-lawn collections at Wisley and the vivid rose of the Rosa canina hedgerow rose and the species-rose collection in the Wisley Trial Gardens.

The British hedgerow botanical tradition (the British hedgerow / English agricultural hedgerow, the most ecologically rich and the most historically ancient linear habitat in the British landscape, estimated to have 500,000 kilometres of hedgerow in England and Wales — the most specifically British-agricultural-ecological and the most botanically English-rural botanical combination of the deep-green of the most dense-hedgerow and the vivid rose of the Rosa canina / Dog Rose, the most commonly occurring wild rose in the British Isles with approximately 75 million individual plants, the most specifically British and the most broadly English-rural-botanical warm-neutral-cool) creates the green-and-rose warm-neutral-cool at the most specifically British-hedgerow-botanically-documented and the most broadly English-rural warm-neutral-cool scale.

The Gertrude Jekyll Arts and Crafts garden tradition (Gertrude Jekyll, 1843–1932, the most influential English garden designer of the Arts and Crafts movement, designer of approximately 400 gardens in collaboration with Edwin Lutyens, whose most characteristic plantings combine the deep-green of yew and box hedging with the vivid rose of Rosa hybrida in the most specifically Arts-and-Crafts-garden and the most precisely Jekyll-designed warm-neutral-cool in English garden design history) creates the green-and-rose warm-neutral-cool at the most specifically Gertrude-Jekyll-Arts-and-Crafts-garden and the most precisely Lutyens-Jekyll-designed warm-neutral-cool scale.
