Rose Cherry Blossom Bush

• Hybrid rose variety bred to combine cherry blossom aesthetics with rose hardiness and repeat flowering characteristics
• Produces abundant clusters of soft pink, semi-double blooms with delicate fragrance from spring through autumn
• Grows as upright bush with glossy green foliage and excellent disease resistance for low-maintenance gardening
• Beloved for romantic garden appeal and exceptional cut flower performance with long-lasting blooms
• Attracts beneficial pollinators including bees and butterflies while deer tend to avoid the thorny stems

• Water deeply at soil level twice weekly during growing season, reducing frequency in winter months
• Position in full sun location with minimum 6 hours direct sunlight for best flowering performance
• Plant in well-draining soil enriched with compost and maintain pH between 6.0-7.0 for optimal growth
• Feed monthly with rose fertiliser during spring and summer, stopping in late autumn to prepare for dormancy
• Prune in late winter removing dead, diseased or crossing branches and shaping for desired form
• Mulch heavily around base with organic matter to retain moisture and regulate soil temperature
• Monitor for pests and diseases regularly, treating early to prevent serious infestations or infections

• Plant in full sun location receiving at least 6 hours direct sunlight daily for abundant flowering and healthy growth
• Water deeply twice weekly during growing season, allowing soil to dry slightly between waterings
• Apply thick organic mulch around base to retain moisture and suppress weeds while keeping mulch away from stem
• Prune in late winter after last frost, removing dead wood and opening centre for air circulation
• Feed monthly during growing season with rose-specific fertiliser for optimal blooming performance

• Aphids cluster on new growth and buds - spray with insecticidal soap or introduce beneficial insects like ladybirds for natural control
• Black spot appears as dark patches on leaves during humid weather - ensure good air circulation and avoid overhead watering
• Powdery mildew creates white coating on foliage - plant in sunny locations with adequate spacing and treat with fungicide if severe
• Root rot develops from waterlogged soil - improve drainage with organic matter and reduce watering frequency
• Thrips cause silvery streaks on petals - use blue sticky traps and systemic insecticides during peak flowering
