Product details
The Nattu Rose, or Traditional Country Rose, is the quintessential flowering plant for Indian homes. Celebrated for its deep, authentic fragrance and classic pink-to-red hues, the Nattu Rose is a hardy perennial that embodies the charm of traditional gardening. Unlike modern hybrids, this "Desi" variety is prized for its essential oils and its frequent use in religious rituals, garland making, and natural wellness.
This variety is exceptionally well-suited for the Chennai climate, showing high resistance to local heat and humidity. It is a prolific bloomer, often producing flowers in steady cycles throughout the year. Its presence in a garden not only adds visual beauty but also fills the air with a nostalgic, soothing scent that modern roses often lack.
This product is delivered as a healthy, sun-acclimated live plant in a professional 12 inch black nursery pot. The extra-large pot size ensures the plant has reached a mature stage with a robust root system, allowing it to thrive immediately upon arrival at your home or terrace.

Plant Care Guide
Sunlight: Place in the sunniest part of your terrace or garden. It requires at least 6-8 hours of direct sun to bloom heavily.
Watering: Water every morning. During peak Chennai summers, a light second watering in the evening may be necessary if the soil feels dry.
Soil: Prefers well-draining, loamy soil rich in organic matter like cow manure or vermicompost.
Fertilization: Add a handful of organic manure every 15-20 days. Occasional use of Epsom salt can improve foliage greenness.
Pruning: Prune back the stems by one-third during the monsoon or winter to encourage vigorous new growth and more flowers.
