Rose Heaven On Earth Bush

• Originally developed as a modern garden rose combining old-world charm with contemporary disease resistance and repeat flowering capabilities.
• Features fragrant, full-bodied blooms that attract beneficial pollinators including bees and butterflies to the garden throughout the flowering season.
• Grows as a compact bush rose with strong, upright habit making it excellent for formal rose gardens or mixed perennial borders.
• Beloved by gardeners for its reliable performance, long flowering period, and ability to produce cut flowers for indoor arrangements.

• Water deeply 2-3 times weekly during active growth, reducing to weekly in winter. Check soil moisture 5cm below surface before watering.
• Position in full sun location receiving minimum 6 hours direct sunlight daily. Some afternoon shade acceptable in extreme heat regions.
• Plant in well-draining soil with pH 6.0-7.0, enriched with compost and aged cow manure for optimal nutrition.
• Feed monthly spring through autumn with complete rose fertiliser, supplementing with liquid seaweed fortnightly during peak season.
• Prune in late winter removing dead, diseased wood and opening centre for air circulation. Deadhead spent blooms regularly.
• Mulch base with organic matter maintaining 5cm thickness, keeping mulch away from stem base to prevent collar rot.

• Provide full sun exposure for at least 6 hours daily for optimal flowering and disease prevention. Morning sun is particularly important in hot climates.
• Water deeply at soil level 2-3 times weekly during growing season, reducing in winter. Avoid wetting foliage to prevent fungal issues.
• Plant in well-draining soil enriched with compost and aged manure. Mulch around base to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
• Feed monthly during growing season with rose-specific fertiliser. Apply winter pruning in late winter before new growth emerges.

• Aphids can cluster on new growth - spray with insecticidal soap or encourage beneficial insects like ladybirds. Check regularly during spring flush periods.
• Black spot may appear in humid conditions - ensure good air circulation and avoid overhead watering. Remove affected leaves promptly.
• Thrips can damage flower buds - use blue sticky traps and maintain garden hygiene by removing fallen debris.
• Root rot occurs from overwatering in poorly draining soil - improve drainage and reduce watering frequency.
