Description of the plant:
Neon® is my top favourite among Kordes polyantha roses. It is a fascinating variety with bright pink flowers that appear continuously from early summer until autumn. Absolutely healthy and disease-resistant. 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. Awarded ADR in 1999.
Pruning: These roses needn’t be pruned. What you can do though is deadhead stems with spent flowers above the first leaf with 5 leaflets.
