Description of the plant:
Golden Celebration is my top favorite since it offers a selection of my most popular colours – golden yellow, honey orange with a very light tint of salmon pink inside. It has a strong, tea and fruity fragrance, actually it was awarded the best shrub and most fragrant variety at the 'Rose Awards Day 2000'. The blooms are large, rounded and full. It repeal flowering reliably. 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 it well. Roses tolerate wide range of soils but thrive in deep, humus-rich, moist but well-drained soil, in full sun.
Pruning: In colder regions (zones 6 and lower) before winter tie up the branches carefully and wrap them in white woven, the grafting point on the top of the stem must be covered too. It is recommended to overwrap the stem with jute. In the spring, after danger of strong frost, cut the branches by about a third to create a desired crown shape. To support extra flowering during the season remove twigs past blossom: cut them off to the first leaf with 5 bracts. Mulch the bottom graft well before winter, preferably with leaf-mould.
