Rambler Rose
|
Position: full sunSoil: fertile, humus-rich, moist, well-drained soilRate of growth: fast-growingFlowering period: July to AugustFlower colour: creamy-whiteOther features: scented flowersHardiness: fully hardyLarge sprays of single, scented, creamy-white flowers from July to August, followed by bright, red hips, and glossy, light green leaves. This extremely vigorous climbing rose is perfect for covering an unsightly building or growing through a strong tree. Tall and spreading, it requires fertile, moist, well-drained soil and adequate space to grow.Garden care: Before planting shorten thick roots to 25cm (10in) and reduce top-growth to an outward-facing bud 8-15cm (3-6in) above ground-level. Plant during a frost-free spell, incorporating well-rotted organic matter and a balanced fertiliser into the planting hole. Ensure that the 'bud union' (the bulge at the base of the shoots) is 2.5cm (1in) below the soil.All our roses are field grown. In October/November they are dug up and potted. However, they will not produce any new roots until spring, so don't be surprised if the compost falls away from the roots when winter planting. Some suppliers send out 'bare root' plants unpotted, but we don't as it is easier to manage them on the nursery in pots....more
