Queen Elizabeth Rose should only be grown in full sunlight. It does best in average to evenly moist conditions, but will not tolerate standing water. It is not particular as to soil type or pH. It is highly tolerant of urban pollution and will even thrive in inner city environments. Highly adaptable; prefers enriched, loamy, well-drained soil. Water deeply, regularly in first growing season to establish an extensive root system. Avoid overhead watering. Feed before new growth begins in spring; repeat mid-season. Mulch to retain moisture and keep roots cool. Remove spent flowers for a tidy appearance. Note that when grown in a container, it may not perform exactly as indicated on the tag - this is to be expected. Also note that when growing plants in outdoor containers and baskets, they may require more frequent waterings than they would in the yard or garden. Be aware that in our climate, most plants cannot be expected to survive the winter if left in containers outdoors, and this plant is no exception. NOTE: Some flowers and plants may be harmful or poisonous to people or pets if touched or ingested. If you require more information before placing an order, please let us know in advance. |
