Rose

This is a delightful, bushy patio rose with two shades of red, the flowers being dark red with bright red in the centre. They contrast well with the healthy, disease-resistant foliage. Plant in an ornamental container, or use several such pots to line a flight of steps to an outbuilding. Patio roses can also be used to encircle a raised pool or flowerbed, and require little maintenance. Prune lightly for shape in February to keep in shape, and remove any dead, diseased or dying wood.
