Planting guide
Choose a sunny spot with well-drained soil. Enrich planting holes with compost and water well after planting. Keep well watered while establishing and feed regularly during the growing season.
Care tips
Feed in spring and midsummer with a balanced rose fertiliser. Remove spent flowers to promote continuous blooming. Prune annually to maintain shape and encourage fresh growth.
Winter care
Prune in late winter to remove old and weak growth. Apply mulch around the base to protect roots and retain moisture over colder months.
