Floribunda Rose
Rosa Fragrant Delight
Spectacular, large sprays of fully double, urn-shaped coppery salmon-pink blooms possessing an unparalleled fragrance emerge from pointed, upright buds between July and September. This is a vigorous, upright hybrid tea bush rose with reddish-green stems that become well-foliated with an abundance of bronzy-green young leaves, turning mid-green and remaining very shiny as they mature. The beautifully-shaped and uniquely-coloured blooms become flushed with rosy-red in full sunlight and deepen in colour during cooler weather, making it a great choice for using as a bedding or show rose. Perfect for a fertile, well-drained border that’s sheltered from the strong, mid-day sun, the nice long stems and long vase-life also make it a good candidate for using as cut flowers. Grows best in alkaline soil

Garden Care:
Dependent on the time of year you buy our roses, the compost may break away when removing from the pot because they are field grown and potted in autumn. Prior to planting trim the roots to 25cm and the stems to 15 to 20cm taking care to cut diagonally away from and above an outer facing bud. Mix compost in with the back fill and a potash based fertilizer.
