'Boule de Neige'

A Bourbon shrub rose with few thorns and glossy, dark green foliage bearing pure white, fully doubled flowers with a strong fragrance..

Height & Spread: 400 x 150cm
Flowering Season: Summer - Autumn
Planting Position: Full sun

Planting: Choose a sheltered area with rich, well-drained soil. Avoid areas where roses have been planted before. Mix plenty of fertiliser into the soil as you dig a hole that will comfortably hold the root ball.

Care: Water regularly in dry weather and apply rose feed once a month. Spray with a mixture of tomato food, garlic juice and fungicide - ideally once a month. Cut back in winter removing around half the growth of the previous year. Dead or faded flowers should be removed to aid repeat flowering.
