Description of the plant:
ANGELA® is a floribunda rose of angelic beauty. It was bred by Reimer Kordes already in 1975 and still today it is a popular and healthy variety even though Kordes rate it “only” 80% resistant to common diseases. Its flowers are semi-double, cup-shaped, soft pink like cotton candy, and mildly fragrant. They are produced in rich clusters almost continuously from June until late October. Leaves are medium green, glossy, and sufficiently healthy i.e. they require no protection from common rose diseases. The shrub is upright and usually grows about 1.2m tall but under ideal conditions and unpruned it can reach 2m or a little taller.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: Cut the branches in half in autumn and prune hard to 3-5 live buds in spring after danger of frosts. During the flowering season prune flowered stems regularly, and follow a regular feeding programme.
