Introduction:

Developed by Noack Rosen, this low-maintenance rose is grafted onto a tall stem, creating an elegant and eye-catching centerpiece for gardens, landscapes, and containers. With its prolific flowering and resilience, Flower Carpet® Pink Standard adds charm and beauty to any outdoor space. Here's a comprehensive care guide to help you cultivate and maintain these exquisite standard roses.

1. Sunlight:

• Full Sun: Plant Flower Carpet® Pink Standard roses in a location with full sunlight exposure. They thrive in bright, direct sunlight and require at least 6 hours of sun per day to bloom abundantly and maintain their compact growth habit.

2. Soil:

• Well-Draining Soil: Choose well-draining, fertile soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Flower Carpet® Pink Standard roses prefer loamy or sandy soil enriched with organic matter. Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogging, as soggy soil can lead to root rot.

3. Watering:

• Regular Watering: Water your Flower Carpet® Pink Standard roses regularly, especially during periods of active growth and flowering. Keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out slightly between waterings.

4. Mulching:

• Mulch Application: Apply a layer of organic mulch, such as shredded bark or compost, around the base of the plant to conserve moisture, suppress weed growth, and maintain a cool root environment. Leave a gap between the mulch and the stem to prevent rotting.

5. Fertilizing:

• Regular Feeding: Feed Flower Carpet® Pink Standard roses with a balanced fertilizer formulated for roses or flowering plants. Apply fertilizer according to the manufacturer's instructions, typically in early spring as new growth emerges and again in late spring or early summer.

6. Pruning:

• Light Pruning: Prune Flower Carpet® Pink Standard roses lightly after the first flush of blooms to remove spent flowers and encourage continuous blooming. Deadhead faded blooms regularly to promote new growth and prolong the flowering season.

7. Pest and Disease Management:

• Disease Resistance: Flower Carpet® Pink Standard roses are exceptionally resistant to common rose diseases such as black spot, powdery mildew, and rust. However, monitor the plants regularly for signs of pest infestation or disease, and treat any issues promptly with appropriate fungicides or insecticides.

8. Winter Care:

• Cold Hardiness: Flower Carpet® Pink Standard roses are generally hardy in USDA zones 4-11. In colder regions, provide winter protection by mulching around the base of the plants and covering them with a layer of straw or frost cloth during freezing temperatures.

9. Container Planting:

• Container Selection: Flower Carpet® Pink Standard roses can be grown in large containers or decorative pots on patios, balconies, or decks. Choose a container with drainage holes and fill it with well-draining potting mix.
• Watering and Fertilizing: Container-grown roses may require more frequent watering and fertilizing than those planted in the ground. Monitor the soil moisture levels and feed the plants regularly with a water-soluble fertilizer.

By following these care guidelines, you can cultivate healthy, vibrant, and floriferous Flower Carpet® Pink Standard roses that will serve as a focal point in your garden or outdoor living space. With their exceptional disease resistance and elegant form, these standard roses are sure to impress and delight throughout the growing season
