How to care for your rose
A reliable bush rose that is easy to grow, ensure you get the best blooms by planting it with soil improver or well-rotted manure. Add a sprinkling of Mycorrhizal Fungi to encourage strong root growth. Position your rose in a sunny spot, in any moist but well-drained soil. Once planted, regularly deadhead the spent blooms to encourage new buds to form.
