How you will receive your plants:
Your bare root roses will arrive at your door at the right time for planting in autumn or into winter. Unpack them straight away and plant as soon as possible after delivery.
Your bare root roses will be sent out with full planting and care instructions.
Can’t plant straight away?
If you can’t plant right away, keep the roots buried under soil in cool, moist soil and lay the stems on a dry, hessian sack. We recommended you aim to plant them within seven days.
Planting tips and hints:
Before planting bare root roses, soak the roots in a bucket of cold water for a couple of hours to rehydrate them.
Plant roses into good garden soil that has been well dug and weeded; improve poor soil with compost.
Use a shovel to dig a hole wide enough to take the roots of the rose without cramping. Position the rose centrally in the planting hole with the bump on the stem (the graft union) level with the soil surface.
Backfill with soil to cover the rose’s roots, firm in gently and water well. Add a fertiliser to the soil when backfilling.
Feeding and aftercare:
Prune bush roses to shape in early spring.
Feed with a high potash feed such as Sulphate of Potash in late spring.
Deadhead spent flowers as they fade to prolong the display.
Tie climbing roses in to strong supports as they grow.

How To Grow
Roses are one of the most rewarding plants to grow in the garden, offering beautiful blooms, wonderful scent and long-lasting colour. With the right care and positioning, roses will thrive for many years and provide a stunning focal point in borders, beds and containers. This guide covers everything you need to know to grow healthy, floriferous rose plants.
Choosing the Right Type of Rose
There are many types of roses available, each suited to different garden styles and planting positions. Choosing the right type will help ensure lasting success.
Bush Roses Ideal for borders and rose beds, bush roses offer repeat flowering and a wide range of colours and fragrances.
Climbing Roses Perfect for walls, fences and arches, climbing roses produce long stems that can be trained to cover vertical structures.
Ground Cover Roses Low-growing and spreading, these roses are excellent for covering large areas, slopes and the front of borders with minimal maintenance.
Preparing the Soil for Roses
Roses grow best in fertile, well-drained soil that retains moisture without becoming waterlogged.
Soil Preparation Before planting, dig the soil thoroughly and remove weeds. Mix in plenty of organic matter such as compost or well-rotted manure to improve soil structure and fertility.
Planting Position Choose a sunny spot that receives at least six hours of sunlight a day. Good air circulation helps reduce the risk of disease.
Planting and Aftercare
Plant roses so the root ball is at the same level as it was in the pot. Firm the soil gently and water well after planting.
Watering Water regularly during the first growing season to help the plant establish, particularly during dry spells.
Feeding Apply a rose feed in spring and again in summer to encourage healthy growth and repeat flowering.
Pruning and Maintenance
Most roses benefit from annual pruning in late winter or early spring to remove dead or weak stems and encourage fresh growth.
With good soil preparation, regular feeding and the right pruning, roses will reward you with abundant blooms and healthy growth year after year.
