How to Grow
Rose - Mum in a Million
- Bareroot Plants
- Plant bareroot roses at the earliest opportunity following delivery. If planting is not possible then heel them in by covering the roots with soil until conditions allow them to be planted in their permanent positions.
- When growing roses, choose a position in fertile well drained soil in full sun.
- Roses are greedy plants so add a small handful of granular fertiliser and mix some well rotted manure or compost into the soil prior to planting.
- Dig a hole of sufficient width and depth to comfortably accommodate the bareroot plant. Position the plant in the hole so that the base of the stems sits just below soil level. Backfill the soil around the roots of the plant, firm in, and water well.
- Aftercare
- Feed and water roses regularly.
- Deadhead faded flowers.
- In autumn apply a mulch of well rotted manure or compost to the base of the plant.
- In winter, begin pruning roses by removing dead and diseased wood, and any rubbing or damaged branches. Then reduce the stems to 20cm (8) above ground level. Side shoots should be reduced to two buds.
