Where to grow Wedding Day Rose
Wedding Day Rose suits warm-temperate, cool-temperate and Mediterranean climates and grows best in full sun and part shade or morning sun. It is frost hardy and shrugs off cold winters.
Soil & planting
Wedding Day Rose does best in free-draining and loamy soil. Dig in plenty of compost before planting, water in well, and mulch to keep roots cool.
Watering & feeding
Wedding Day Rose is regular, moderate watering. A feed in spring with a balanced fertiliser keeps growth strong. In its first year, water deeply once or twice a week to settle the roots in, then taper off as it establishes.
Pruning & care
Prune Wedding Day Rose after flowering to keep it compact and encourage the next flush of blooms. Overall it is low maintenance.
Using Wedding Day Rose in the garden
Wedding Day Rose earns its place for a feature or specimen planting and its fragrance.
