Barrow June gardening jobs at Millbrook are all about Roses. Join us as we celebrate these quintessentially British beauties! Below are some tips to ensure your Roses have a long and happy Summer!
If you care for your Roses they will reward you with beautifully-formed, stunning colours and fabulous fragrance.
- Roses love rich organic soil, or well-rotted manure. You can use a good compost to encourage growth
- Water well around the roots through Summer. Try not to get the leaves wet
- Roses love to be in a sunny position
- Keep dead-heading the blooms as they fade as this will encourage new blooms throughout the Summer
- Feed your roses regularly to keep them in top condition, we’d recommend Miracle-Gro All Purpose Plant Food, or Miracle-Gro Rose & Shrub Food, for best results
- Spray roses regularly to keep black spot, rust and aphids at bay, we’d suggest using Roseclear Ultra – a non-neonic insecticide and fungicide
