What better way to celebrate, honor and remember our nation's heroes than with a large planting of this uniquely striking rose. Memorial Day will stir patriotic feelings in the hearts of garden visitors with its enormous, perfectly formed flowers in an uncommonly pretty shade of orchid pink. Plus, this hybrid tea emits a very strong, old-fashioned rose perfume that harkens back to days of old, hinting at long-ago memories of wandering through Grandma's cottage garden. Outstanding for cut-flower bouquets—just one rose will fill an entire room with fragrance. Plant in well-drained soil for best results. Rosa 'WEKblunez' PP16572

- planting instructionsDig a hole large enough to easily accommodate root structure. Place a small 'hill' of soil at the bottom of the hole. Place the plant at the proper height in the hole, and fill two-thirds full with soil. Using a gentle stream of water, fill the remainder of the hole. As the water seeps in, it will moisten the roots and surrounding soil, removing any air pockets. After the water has settled, fill hole to the top with the remaining soil. Sprinkle lightly with water to assure good moisture.
- pruningOn established plants removing spent blooms will encourage more flowers. Prune dramatically in early spring, after the danger of frost has passed and before new growth has begun
