• Enhanced disease resistance and reliable performance across select hardiness zones (5a–9b) when properly cared for

Planting and ongoing care

Sun and soil: Provide 6–8 hours of direct sunlight per day in a location sheltered from heavy winds. Choose rich, well-draining soil to support strong roots and abundant blooms.

Watering strategy: When you plant in spring, water the soil around the base every 2–3 days. Avoid wetting leaves or flowers in the evening or early morning to minimize fungal growth. Established roses typically need a weekly drink in spring and fall, with the soil kept consistently moist through the hottest summer months.

Hardiness: Suitable for zones 5a–9b, so you can enjoy this rose across a broad range of climates with proper winter protection and seasonal care.
