Troubleshooting

Yellowing leaves

This can be due to over or under-watering, or nutrient deficiency. Check soil moisture and consider feeding with a balanced fertilizer if other causes are ruled out.

Lack of flowering

Ensure the plant receives adequate sunlight and is properly fed and pruned. Remove faded blooms to encourage new flower production.

Pest infestation (e.g., aphids)

Wipe away aphids with a damp cloth or use an insecticidal soap. Encourage beneficial insects like ladybirds.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

This rose is supplied as a freshly potted, professional quality plant in a 4L pot.

Planting:

  1. Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil. Roses generally require at least 6 hours of sunlight per day.
  2. Dig a hole large enough to accommodate the root ball. If planting into clay soil, consider adding compost or grit to improve drainage.
  3. Gently remove the plant from its pot. If the roots are tightly bound, loosen them slightly.
  4. Place the plant in the hole so that the top of the root ball is level with the surrounding soil.
  5. Backfill the hole with soil, firming gently around the base of the plant.
  6. Water thoroughly after planting.

Care:

  • Watering: Water regularly, especially during dry periods, ensuring the soil remains consistently moist but not waterlogged.
  • Feeding: Feed with a balanced rose fertilizer in spring and again in early summer.
  • Pruning: Prune in late winter or early spring. Remove any dead, diseased, or crossing branches. Aim to create an open, goblet shape.
  • Deadheading: Remove faded blooms regularly to encourage further flowering.

Compatibility:

This variety is a Hybrid Tea rose and is generally compatible with most garden soils and conditions when provided with adequate sunlight and drainage. It can be planted alongside other shrubs and perennials, but ensure sufficient space is allowed for its mature size.
