Use

• Types of use : Structure brilliant mass plantings at the heart of your flower beds, create a low colourful hedge along pathways, or grow it as a Thriller in a large container on the terrace.
• Ornamental benefits : It delivers a massive visual impact thanks to its continual chromatic mutations and yields a generous supply of cut flowers for creating radiant bouquets.

Maintenance

• Watering : Water regularly and deeply at the base of the plant during the first two seasons, especially during summer heatwaves. Avoid wetting the foliage to prevent the development of diseases.
• Fertilizing : Incorporate a good layer of rich compost in spring or apply a granular fertilizer specific for roses as vegetation awakens to stimulate bud production.
• Pruning : Prune lightly in early spring, removing dead or weak wood and shortening main stems to maintain a compact, vigorous silhouette.
• Planting : Install the plant in a wide hole, spread out the roots well, and bury the graft union slightly if applicable, while maintaining the required spacing.
