Product Description

"Don't call me 'lady, call me Rose." Inspired by Lady Rose, niece and goddaughter of the Dowager Countess Violet, Pretty Lady Rose is the second in a collection of garden roses named after characters of the popular Downton Abbey series. Lady Rose's namesake shares many attributes with the character such as elegance and strength. The very long-lasting flower coloration is enhanced by the sweet, scented peony-like and spices fragrance similar to the perfume a noble woman of the period might have worn. Like an upper-class damsel, the plant is well dressed in an evening gown of healthy bright glossy medium green foliage. With her compact habit, this selection brings elegance to smaller spaces of the garden and also looks great in pots. Pretty Lady Rose holds her flowers at the perfect height to be admired and to allow you to enjoy their aroma.

Planting Instructions
4x6 Roses: Dig a hole one and a half to two feet deep and wide. Mix organic fertilizer or compost with the topsoil. (Mix between 25% compost and 50% compost with your native soil). It is important to disturb the roots as little as possible during planting. To do this, back-fill the hole with your topsoil/compost mixture, and use the 4x6 pot as a "mold" so when you pack soil around it, the patted soil is even with the top of the pot. Next, remove the plastic pot from the ground, leaving a nice, neat hole that is the same shape. Gently turn the potted plant upside down and push the plant out of the bottom of the pot. Do NOT pull the roots apart or agitate them. Place the removed plant into the hole, and pat the soil in place gently. Water the plant in well.

3 gallon Roses: These roses have more established root systems, but it is still important to treat them with care when planting. We recommend digging a hole that is one and a half to two feet deep and wide. Amend the soil with compost/fertilizer. Gently ease the plant out of the pot. Do NOT pull from the stem. Place the plant in the hole, pat soil around the plant so that it is level with the top, and water in well.
Care Instructions
During the first year, be sure to water your rose often to ensure the plant doesn't shock in it's new environment. Growth will be good the first year, and by the second year you will be rewarded with a vigorous plant that will continue to establish in your garden.

During the growing season, deadhead plants regularly to promote continuous blooming. We recommend allowing own-root roses to go dormant naturally, which means holding off on deadheading in the fall. Prune back any unruly canes to avoid wind damage during the winter, but otherwise, save pruning for the early spring (before the plant starts pushing new growth).
