Thank you to the team (for order preparation and shipping), the bare root rose received appears healthy to me. Planted in the ground, close to the "Sophia Renaissance" variety, I am now patiently waiting for it to take root... or not?

Description
The lemon-yellow flowers of Rosa Sherwood call to mind the strange light that reigns in the famous forest associated with the legend of Robin Hood. This English bush rose is part of a series of modern hybrids called English Legend, gathering varieties created in England in the 1990s by the famous breeder Robert Harkness. With their repeat-flowering and delicate scent, these slightly old-fashioned roses express all the charm of English roses. Sherwood is vigorous and has healthy, disease-resistant foliage. Its large double roses exhale a light spicy fragrance with notes of anise and cinnamon. It flowers in abundance from spring to the first frost. Ideal in beds and borders, its roses are also beautiful in a vase.
Rosa Sherwood, a hybrid tea type, is characterised by an upright habit and vigorous growth. This bush quickly reaches about 1m (3ft) in height and 80cm (32in) in spread. Its thorny stems bear reddish young shoots that unfold into medium green leaves, divided into 5 finely toothed leaflets. The foliage is relatively resistant to diseases under good growing conditions. Its flowering is long and abundant, renewing in successive waves from May-June to October if the soil remains moist. The flowers are solitary. 10 to 11cm (4in) wide, they consist of 50 to 60 petals arranged in a cup shape. Their colour is a light and fresh yellow, sometimes discreetly edged with red, the heart of the flower is animated by a greener hue. The floral bud is green. Their fragrance is lightly intense, reaching its peak at noon and in the evening, after a hot and sunny day. The foliage is deciduous, falling in autumn.
English shrub roses can be used to create beautiful small hedges, planted mixed along a patio, or in borders with moderately sized shrubs. Plant them with perovskia, Mexican orange blossoms, or caryopteris, for example. They are good companions for delphiniums and tall gypsophila. This 'Sherwood' variety will be enhanced when planted in groups of 3, forming an extremely bright bush. It can be surrounded by catmints and perennial salvias with blue, red, or white flowers. This very hardy rose requires little maintenance. It will thrive in full sun or partial shade. It will satisfy all gardeners, beginners or experienced.

Planting and care
Plant in a sunny location. English roses are tolerant, but do not like excessive limestone. They will adapt to any garden as long as the soil is well worked, not too heavy, and sufficiently rich. To plant your rose, work the soil by crumbling it and add fertiliser to the bottom of the planting hole (dried blood or dehydrated horn, for example). Water generously after planting to remove any air pockets. Water regularly for a few weeks to facilitate rooting. Provide your rose with special rose fertiliser that stimulates flowering.
Pruning bushy English roses is essential for flowering. Shorten the branches to two or three buds above the ground in spring, choosing an outward-facing bud for a more elegant habit. Remove dead wood and unsightly branches. Pruning should be done at an angle above a bud.
Regularly remove faded flowers to encourage new blooms.
Roses are often stained or unsightly at the end of summer, but this will not hinder their development. These spots are a natural phenomenon and will not harm the rose.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
