Roses are a classic and instantly recognisable plant, ideal for almost every style of garden. They flower abundantly from early summer in a huge choice of colours, with many roses also having beautiful fragrance. Learn how to get the best from your roses with expert advice from an experienced member of our gardening team. This demonstration will cover choosing the best roses for your garden, planting, feeding, deadheading and managing pests and diseases. Good rose care will go a long way to ensuring healthy plants that flower well and bring joy for many years. This session does not cover rose pruning.
