Queen of Elegance
Order now for pickup at the garden center after we open on April 1st.
Roses are already known as the queen of the flower world but with Queen of Elegance you are getting multi-petaled, old-fashioned medium pink and large flowers worthy of a monarch! The blooms are certainly sophisticated and elegant, but the strong rose perfume is what make this variety deserving of belonging to the aristocracy. Each long lasting and non-fading blossom invites you to bury your nose to inhale the perfume of ‘old time’ roses of your dreams. Her eminence is also an excellent garden variety as the upright vigorous plant is robed with glossy dark green foliage, holding the refined blooms at the right height for your satisfaction.
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.
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).
