Rose Wendy CussonsProduct Description
Create a euphoric cottage display with our HT Rose Collection. Each HT Rose is beloved for their classic shape and vivid colours, each of which can decorate the summer garden with months of interest. Perfect for cut flower bouquets, or simply letting them do their thing in the flower bed. This collection includes 1 each of Rose Fragrant Cloud, Sunblest, Blue Moon, Lovers Meeting, Wendy Cussons, and Pascali. Please note: Fragrant rose's perfume is usually the most potent on warm, sunny days, while sat in moist soil. Its important to imitate these conditions, as it will release the fragrant chemicals within the flowers. High humidity increases the longevity of the fragrance as it reduces the chance of the chemicals evaporating.

Growing at a glance…
Roses should be planted firmly, to ensure that wind will not disrupt the roots. Apply a balanced fertiliser every 3-4 weeks in the spring/summer, and apply a mulch in the winter for protection. It is best to plant roses in winter or early spring, provided there is little frost. To prepare your bare rose roots, soak them in a bucket of water for an hour to 24 hours (longer in spring). Then, dig a hole large enough to house the roots when fully outspread. Distribute the roots evenly around the hole and put in a little bit of fine soil to which has been added a small amount of bonemeal. Fill in with the rest of the soil over the roots and tread in firmly. The depth of planting roses will vary between 10-20cm, or as deep as they were in their pots. Our HT roses are supplied roughly pruned. To keep them healthy, prune stems at a 45 angle, taking off any dead wood or growth.
