Floribunda Rose
Rosa Piccolo
Unscented, showy, flat to cup-shaped, coral-red blooms which are well-shaped and beautifully formed appear on stiff, thorny stems from July to September. This is a moderately vigorous, upright floribunda with a strong disease resistance and free-flowering habit. It becomes well-foliated with finely-toothed, glossy coppery-bronze new growth during the spring which gradually matures to reddish-green over the growing season. Introduced in 1984, this is still quite a rare and unusual rose despite boasting a good list of virtues

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.
