Description of the plant:
Arthur Bell is a beautiful modern polyantha/floribunda rose with rich yellow flowers from June until late autumn. It was bred by Sam McBredy IV and is cross between 'Cläre Grammerstorf' and 'Piccadilly'. The flowers are very fragrant and appear in several flushes throughout the season. It is incredible to see vivid yellow flowers in a rose garden that is slowly getting ready to sleep. Arthur Bells rose has the ability to cheer you up even on a cloudy or rainy day and its sweet scent will bring a smile back on your face.Planting instructions: Prepare a hole of size 30x30 cm. Put your rose in the way that the grafting point is 3 cm deep in the soil. Water well and cover new shoots with soil or bark mulch about 15 cm high. Roses tolerate wide range of soils but thrive in deep, humus-rich, moist but well-drained soil, in full sun.
Pruning: These roses needn’t be pruned, yet they can be trimmed lightly in spring to encourage new growths and more compact bush. Deadheading spent flowers above the first leaf with 5 leaflets is recommended.
