Firenza is almost unknown English-type rose variety whose breeder we were unable to trace back. It produces mid-sized, about 8 cm wide, fully double flowers of deep raspberry pink colour. They have very fain fragrance and bloom profusely from June until frost.

It grows moderately. Leaves are deciduous, glossy, deep green, and may be prone to typical rose diseases. Fertilize the plant during flowering season regularly.

Planting instructions: Plant it in the same level as it is now in the container. Provide a good support for the stem. Water it well and mulch it for winter. Roses tolerate wide range of soils but thrive in deep, humus-rich, moist but well-drained soil, in full sun. If you live in a region with harsh and long winters protect the crown and the grafting point with white woven.

Pruning: In spring after danger of all frosts prune the crown to 3-5 live buds and remove ill or dead branches.
