Celebrating our 27th Gold Medal at the RHS Chelsea Flower 2022 In May 2022, we were delighted to have been awarded our 27th Gold Medal at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show, as well as the prestigious President's Award for our exhibit of classic and contemporary roses. At the show, we also had the great pleasure of unveiling three beautiful new roses during the Press Preview day; ‘Oxford Physics Rose’, ‘Loyal Companion’, and ‘Rachel’s Joy’. All were eagerly admired by guests and celebrities alike, as they wandered around our exhibit soaking up the romantic atmosphere and exquisite perfumes. With each entrance adorned with beautiful climbing and rambling roses, whichever way visitors entered the exhibit, they

We're excited to offer a sneak peek of our newest rose... In celebration of the Oxford Botanic Garden's 400th anniversary, we are delighted to be officially launching a new rose for them at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2022. Founded in 1621, the University of Oxford Botanic Garden is the oldest botanic garden in the UK and one of the oldest in the world! Although the new rose will not officially be available to buy until next year, the beautiful new hybrid was revealed by Oxford Botanic Garden Director Professor Simon Hiscox along with  Peter Beales Roses Nursery Manager Ian Limmer on Sunday 25th July 2021, accompanied by special guest Lord Patton of Barnes. The New ‘Oxford Physics Rose’ will not be officially launched

Normally by now the Roses would have returned from the RHS Chelsea flower show and if they hadn’t already had the Chelsea Chop, then they would be trimmed over the next few weeks. “What is the Chelsea Chop?” I hear you all ask. When we break our stand down at the end of the Chelsea Flower Show most of the shrubs and some climbers will be cut down very heavily for ease of transporting them home. Although the big flower shows have been cancelled this year, I have still been doing something similar to invigorate the plants into new growth. This helps to form bushier and hopefully more compact shrub plants. While we aim for more manageable shrubs, this hard prune should also encourage climbers and ramblers into producing lots of long straight stems. Some of the ramblers have already put on nearly 7 ft of new growth!   

Celebrating our 25th Gold Medal at the RHS Chelsea Flower 2018 Peter Beales Roses are delighted to announce that Her Majesty the Queen visited their gold-winning stand during yesterday’s Royal Horticultural Society’s Chelsea Flower Show.

Ian Limmer said, “In this our fiftieth year, it was a great honour to have Her Majesty the Queen visit our exhibit.
