A bold, pink, vigorous, fail-safe floribunda, 'Tickled Pink' produces a mass of flowers in large trusses all summer. It's disease-resistant, with shiny, healthy foliage, and makes an impressive show at the front of a border, or in an island bed with larger, more dominant roses behind in stronger colours. Also effective at the base of a classical sculpture or a harsh structure that needs to be softened. Cut down by from one-half to three-quarters in February to promote plenty of new flowery growth.
