A wonderful addition to any rose garden, flower bed or border, as well as pot or container, this rose is a versatile choice to admire in a range of outdoor spaces. Its compact shape and masses of blooms means it works well to brighten small gardens such as city and courtyard gardens, or cottage gardens, while its vibrant lemon-yellow blooms make it a wonderful addition to larger spaces as well, as the eye-catching central feature to floral displays. This rose also makes an excellent choice as a cut flower to enjoy around the home.
The ‘Diamond Days Forever’ shrub rose is reliable and easy to grow. To ensure you get the best floral display use a soil improver or well-rotted manure before planting, and add a sprinkling of Mycorrhizal Fungi to encourage strong root growth. Try to find a sheltered spot in full sun in the garden, as this will ensure the roses stay looking their best for longer.
The beauty of this rose coupled with its versatility and reliability around the garden means it makes an excellent gift for a diamond wedding anniversary, that can be enjoyed for many years to come.
