Description of the plant:
Large, golden-yellow flowers with many petals, freshly scented.
Planting instructions: Prepare a hole of size 30x30 cm. Put your rose in the way that the graft is 3 cm deep in the soil. Water well and cover new shoots with soil or bark mulch about 15 cm high. Pruning: before the winter you can cut the branches to half and in the spring cut them back to the height of 3-5 live buds. Thus you can be sure that all branches will be fresh and leafed. If you want a tall shrub just cut back frozen ends, and leave only strong branches. To support extra flowering during the season you can cut off twigs past blossom: cut off the twigs from the blossom to the first leaf with 5 bracts.
