Position: full sun or partial shadeSoil: fertile, humus-rich, moist, well-drained soilRate of growth: averageFlowering period: July to SeptemberFlower colour: pinkOther features: excellent cut-flowersHardiness: fully hardyNamed for the RHS Gardens at Wisley, this is a recent introduction, which should not be confused with another rose named ‘Wisley’ that does not display such a strong resistance to disease. This is an outstanding rose, with shallowly cupped flowers that form beautifully shaped rosettes up to 7.5cm (3″) across. These soft pink flowers have a fruity fragrance, and will continue to appear for a long period throughout summer along the softly arching stems. Busy and upright, this is an ideal choice for either formal or informal areas of the garden.Garden care: Plant during a frost-free spell, incorporating well-rotted organic matter and a balanced fertiliser into the planting hole. Ensure that the ‘bud union’ (the bulge at the base of the shoots) is 2.5cm (1in) below the soil.
