I didn't mention in the previous comment that I chose the young potted plant. So, there is, but the plant has been there for a short time! Sick plant, apparently chlorosis, weak, all in height! A plant that no one would buy, especially at this price, in a garden centre! Shameful! Translation analysis: "I didn't specify in the previous comment that I chose the young potted plant.

Description

The Bush Rose 'Friesia' forms a not very tall but floriferous, vigorous, sturdy bush resistant to bad weather and diseases. Its double and full roses, gathered in bouquets, display a bright golden yellow colour when they open, fading slightly when they wilt. Their fragrance, quite present, reminds me of both iris and patchouli. It blooms for a long time, from May until the first frost, and its flowers retain all their brilliance even under scorching sun. An excellent variety, radiating good cheer, for the garden or even the terrace. Worth discovering!

  

The Rose 'Friesia' or 'Korresia' is a German creation by Kordes, dating back to 1973. In a few years, it forms a rounded and vigorous bush, with thorny stems spreading 70 to 80 cm (28 to 32in) in all directions, highly branched, vigorous, and covered with very healthy deciduous foliage, cut into large leaflets, born red and becoming shiny dark green in summer. Its flowering is abundant from May to October-November.  Its corollas, 5 to 8 cm (2 to 3in) wide, are double, slightly ruffled, gathered in bouquets of 5 to 7 flowers with a somewhat blurry pattern and undulated petals. The tightly closed buds open into round and fully open cups, producing bright yellow roses around a red-tinged heart. Their floral fragrance is well-pronounced. 

 

Floribunda roses allow for the creation of beautiful small hedges planted mixed along the edge of the terrace or in small shrub beds. Combine them with abelias, nandinas, or caryopteris, for example. They are good companions for paniculate phlox and tall gypsophila. The modest size and weather resistance of 'Friesia' make it an exciting variety for all gardens, even small ones, and for cultivating large pots. Its use is versatile, depending on the desires of each gardener: in a rose bed, in the company of white varieties ('Irene Of Denmark'), or mauve ones (Blue Eyes), or mixed with easy-care perennials such as perennial geraniums, small-flowered carnations, or blue asters. And its scented roses are sparkling in bouquets.

Planting and care

To plant the 'Friesia' floribunda rose, you should choose a spot with well-prepared and well-drained soil between November and March. Roses typically do well in clayey soils that are heavier rather than lighter. If the soil is too sandy, compact, or dry during summer, it is better to add compost or well-rotted manure to the bottom of the planting hole. However, it is essential to avoid waterlogged soils during winter. Make sure to plant the rose in a sunny location or, at most, partial shade. Roses require special care, so it is best to use a specific fertiliser at the beginning of vegetation and then regularly throughout the flowering period.

Roses may develop unsightly spots at the end of summer, but this is a natural occurrence and doesn't harm the rose's growth.

Care

Pruning instructions To keep your rose bushes healthy and in full bloom, it's important to regularly remove any wilting flowers. Floribundas are a type of rose that produces many flowers and are more robust compared to large-flowered varieties. To encourage new growth and maximise blooming, it's recommended to prune the stems by approximately one-quarter of their length in late winter. Make sure to cut above an outward-facing bud to keep the bush growing bushy and to prevent the branches from getting tangled.
