Rosa 'Crimson Shower'

The 'Crimson Shower' climbing rose prefers sunny locations. Although it doesn't appreciate excessive limestone, it tolerates it. It will adapt to any garden if the soil is well-cultivated and rich enough. To plant your rose, work the soil by crumbling it and adding an amendment at the bottom of the planting hole, such as blood, fish and bone. Water generously after planting to remove any air pockets. Water regularly for a few weeks to facilitate root growth. Pruning this rose is only necessary to control its vigorous growth. If its spread bothers you, don't hesitate to reduce its branches. Since it doesn't repeat, removing the faded flowers is not necessary and hips will form in autumn.

Roses may appear unsightly at the end of summer due to staining, but this is a natural and harmless occurrence that does not affect their growth.
