Rosa Golden Celebration

Plant your English Rose 'Celebration' in a sunny location. It is important that the spot is protected from spring frosts that would damage the buds. English roses are tolerant, but they won't like excessive limestone. They will adapt to any garden as long as the soil is well cultivated and sufficiently rich. To install your rose, work the soil by crumbling it well and placing an amendment at the bottom of the planting hole, such as dried blood or dehydrated horn. Water generously after planting to eliminate air pockets. Water regularly for a few weeks to facilitate rooting. Pruning English roses is essential for flowering. At the end of winter, shorten the branches to 3-5 eyes above ground level (at the lowest), choosing an eye facing outward for a more elegant habit. Take advantage of this pruning to remove deadwood and unsightly branches. Prune at an angle above an eye. As the flowers bloom, remove faded flowers to stimulate the blooming of other buds.
