Floribunda Rose
Rosa Melody Maker
Masses of eye-catching, beautifully-formed, fully double, vermillion-red blooms are produced repeatedly in large trusses from June until the first frost. This is a vigorous, bushy Floribunda with a strong disease resistance and an abundance of finely-toothed, ovate, glossy dark green leaves which provide a perfect backdrop to set off the vividly-coloured blooms. Its neat and compact growth habit with stiff, thorny, well-foliated stems makes it a great choice for growing in a bed or border in smaller gardens. Winner of the Rose of the Year Award in 1991

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.
