Rose Gold Bunny Climbing

• This climbing rose produces abundant clusters of rose-gold coloured blooms with a sweet, classic rose fragrance. The unique colouring shifts beautifully throughout the day as light conditions change.
• Originally bred for vigorous growth and disease resistance, making it well-suited to Australian growing conditions. The strong climbing habit can cover large structures effectively.
• Gardeners love this variety for its reliable flowering performance and low maintenance requirements. The stunning colour combination works beautifully with both modern and cottage garden styles.
• Flowers continuously from spring through to autumn in most Australian climate zones. The blooms are excellent for cutting and bringing indoors.

• Water at soil level to keep foliage dry and prevent fungal diseases. Deep, infrequent watering encourages strong root development in Australian conditions.
• Choose a sunny position with morning sun exposure and protection from harsh afternoon winds. Good air circulation helps prevent disease issues.
• Plant in well-draining soil enriched with compost and aged manure. Roses prefer slightly alkaline soil with pH between 6.0-7.0.
• Feed monthly during growing season with rose-specific fertiliser or balanced slow-release fertiliser. Apply mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
• Prune in July-August, removing weak growth and opening the centre for air circulation. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage continuous flowering.
• Provide consistent moisture during hot summer months but avoid waterlogging in winter. Adjust watering based on seasonal rainfall patterns.

• Plant in full sun with at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily for best flowering and disease resistance. Morning sun is particularly important for drying dew from leaves.
• Water deeply once or twice weekly, soaking the root zone thoroughly. Reduce watering frequency in winter and increase during hot summer months.
• Provide strong support structure as this vigorous climber can reach considerable height and weight. Install sturdy posts, trellises, or wire frameworks before planting.
• Prune in late winter to remove dead wood and shape the plant. Tie new growth to supports regularly throughout the growing season.

• Aphids cluster on new growth and buds, causing distorted leaves and reduced flowering. Spray with insecticidal soap or encourage beneficial insects like ladybirds to control infestations naturally.
• Black spot appears as dark spots on leaves in humid conditions. Ensure good air circulation and avoid overhead watering to prevent fungal issues.
• Overwatering leads to root rot and yellowing leaves. Check soil moisture before watering and ensure excellent drainage around the root zone.
• Scale insects attach to stems, weakening the plant. Remove manually or treat with horticultural oil during cooler months.
