The ‘Special Day’ shrub rose from Whartons Roses is the perfect living gift and is a timeless reminder of a special day that can be enjoyed for many years to come.
With masses of creamy white roses, that have a delightful hint of pink at the edges, there is a lot to admire with this wonderful rose. Full of fragrance, each bloom is a delight for the senses that will repeat flower through to autumn.
With such wonderful, fragrant flowers it will be hard to decide where to plant it. With a compact and neat shape, this rose is a versatile choice which can be added to large pots and containers to admire on a patio area or balcony. Or it could be positioned near to an entrance so you can enjoy its wonderful fragrance each day as you brush past. This rose can be planted in mixed borders and rose beds, or it makes an excellent choice as a cut flower to enjoy around the home.
To get the best blooms from the ‘Special Day’ shrub rose, plant it with some soil improver or well-rotted manure and then add a sprinkling of Mycorrhizal Fungi to encourage strong root growth. Position your rose in a sunny spot, in moist but well-drained soil. You will then enjoy many years of magnificent floral displays.
