Description

Make your neighbours say wow! If you love roses you�ll simply adore this sensational new collection of the most beautiful bush rose varieties all hand pick to give that wow-factor!

Called �Wow-factor� it�s the perfect name for some of the showiest, most sweetly scented roses ever. A mix of the very best of �Hybrid-Tea� and �Floribunda�, these five specially grown varieties will produce masses of the most sumptuous classic style flowers, filling the air for yards around with their gorgeous sweet perfume. Better still, each bush will repeat flower from May right through to October for a non-stop display of spectacular colour and scent.

Each collection contains 5 bare-root dormant bushes of the very best, proven garden performing roses. All of these roses are perfect for pots or borders, reaching 60-90cm tall and wide, so are great for smaller gardens. Easy to grow � they have some disease resistance, and they are easy to grow in most spots.

We�ve also included a set of 5 of our �infinity' design metallic copper finished planters. These plastic planters are light and easily transportable around the garden and they�re a fraction of the cost of garden centre ceramic or metal pots but look just as stunning. Classic looking, they�re wonderfully decorative and will set your roses off beautifully as they spill over the tops of the containers.

Top Tips

To prune, just remove any dead, dying, damaged and diseased stems and also deadhead regularly.

Traditionally, you would cut just above a leaf joint with a sloping cut away from the bud, however, this isn't necessary, and don�t worry about pruning too much - roses are very resilient and will grow back.

When pruning, make sure that your secateurs are clean and sharp to prevent squashing stems and introducing disease.

Add mycorrhizal fungi to the roots when planting to help the plant establish quicker.

Care Information

Plant your rose where it can get plenty of sun for at least half of the day, and where it will be sheltered from the wind.

Roses tolerate wide range of soils but thrive in deep, humus-rich, moist but well-drained soil, so add plenty of well-rotted manure into the hole if necessary.

Dig a hole twice the width of the roots, forking over the bottom to loosen the soil, and add some good quality fertiliser such as Blood Fish & Bone (wash your hands afterwards!).

Plant so that the graft union (the swollen area when the stems meet the roots) is around 3cm below soil level.
Holding the tree or plant upright in position with one hand, slowly backfill the hole with soil, and gently shake the plant, so the soil falls back around the roots.

Use your heel to compact the soil around the plant to ensure good contact around the roots.
Water in well.

Established roses can be watered around once a week through spring and summer - more if the weather is hot.

For best results, feed roses in in late-March/April and again late July.

Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
