(Rose) Orange Star

Picture a compact little bush glowing in warm orange from early summer, right at the front of your border or along the edge of the terrace. Orange Star grows to about 40 cm tall and 30-40 cm wide, so it stays neat and feels just as at home in a pot as in the ground. For a full, colourful border, plan on 5-6 per square metre. It keeps flowering in waves till the first frosts, which makes this green friend a long-season companion for your garden. Seasonal changes may affect whether it arrives with flowers.

Give it a spot in full sun: roses need plenty of light to flower well and keep their leaves healthy. Plant it in rich, well-draining soil and mix some compost into the planting hole, so it gets a good start. Water deeply in dry spells, aiming at the soil rather than the leaves, which helps keep mildew away. In a pot it dries out much faster, so check it regularly. Prune in early spring, cutting back by about a third just above an outward-facing bud, and snip off faded flowers to encourage new ones. This rose is hardy and stays outside all winter; in a pot, give it a sheltered spot and wrap the pot against hard frost.
