Description of the plant:
Rouge Meilove® is an attractive, compact floribunda rose from Meilland breeding, grafted as a standard rose. It bears medium-sized, deep red flowers and extremely healthy, disease-resistant foliage. Flowers come out in June and the plant keeps producing new buds in flushes throughout the season.Planting instructions: Plant it in the same level as it is now in the container. Provide a good support for the stem. Water it well and mulch it for winter. Roses tolerate wide range of soils but thrive in deep, humus-rich, moist but well-drained soil, in full sun. If you live in a region with harsh and long winters protect the crown and the grafting point with white woven.
Pruning: In spring after danger of all frosts prune the crown lightly to form a solid framework, and remove ill, dry and weak branches.
