Planting & care
Help it thrive
Planting guide
Plant in fertile, moisture-retentive but well-drained soil in a sunny position. Incorporate organic matter before planting and water thoroughly while establishing. Feed in spring with a balanced rose fertiliser and deadhead regularly to encourage repeat blooms.
Care tips
Water consistently during dry weather, especially in the first growing season. Remove spent flowers to prolong blooming and inspect foliage regularly for good airflow and plant health. Feed annually for the strongest floral display.
Winter care
Prune lightly in autumn to prevent wind damage, then reduce stems further in late winter or early spring. Apply a thick mulch around the base to protect roots and enrich the soil. Container-grown roses benefit from extra insulation during severe frosts.
