Product Description

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...

Plant Information

Top Tips

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.

Care Guide

  • Roses can be planted at any time of the year, as long as the soil is not frozen, waterlogged or drought-dry.
  • Plant your rose where it can get plenty of sun for at least half of the day, and where it will be sheltered from the wind.
  • Roses tolerate wide range of soils but thrive in deep, humus-rich, moist but well-drained soil, so add plenty of well-rotted manure into the hole if necessary and plant so that the graft union (the swollen area when the stems meet the roots) is around 3cm below soil level.
  • Water well every other day - daily if the weather is hot and dry. Established roses can be watered around once a week through spring and summer - more if the weather is hot.
  • For best results, feed roses in late-March/April and again in late July.
