    This lovely rambling rose produces graceful sprays of small, double, deep yellow flowers in April and May. Perfect for covering an arch or pergola or for growing through a strong tree, the lightly scented flowers are followed by attractive rose-hips. Best in a sunny sheltered site.

  • Garden care: Avoid planting in a site in which roses have recently been grown. Apply a balanced fertiliser and a generous 5-7cm (2-3in) mulch of well-rotted garden compost or manure around the base of the plant in late-winter or early-spring. Prune after flowering, reducing side-shoots to between two and four buds.

    All our roses are field grown. In October/November they are dug up and potted. However, they will not produce any new roots until spring, so don't be surprised if the compost falls away from the roots when winter planting. Some suppliers send out 'bare root' plants unpotted, but we don't as it is easier to manage them on the nursery in pots.
