This beautiful, blousy shrub rose produces huge rosette-style blooms repeatedly throughout the summer up until the autumn. Subtly scented, these large cream, sometimes blushed peach, flowers sit in clusters atop glossy deep green foliage that sets the perfect backdrop.
A stunning gift, Macmillan Nurse is a neat and compact grower that is easy to maintain and will grow just as well in pots as it will directly in the ground. Whereever you decide to plant it, be sure it will look incredible...
To prune, just remove any dead, dying, damaged and diseased stems and also deadhead regularly.
Traditionally, you would cut just above a leaf joint with a sloping cut away from the bud, however, this isn't necessary, and don’t worry about pruning too much - roses are very resilient and will grow back.
When pruning, make sure that your secateurs are clean and sharp to prevent squashing stems and introducing disease.
Add mycorrhizal fungi to the roots when planting to help the plant establish quicker.
