Pink Traviata
I have grown Pink Traviata for 3yrs, it is an excellent rose. It is now over 6ft tall, this bush sends out long thick canes,very thorny. The flowers is beautiful, reminds me of an old english rose. The rose is disease resistant, it is a blooming machine, it is not slowed by summer heat. I have never noticed a scent on mine. It is hardy to zone 6 winter, it is in a rock garden so i do not mulch, comes through the winter with no dieback, i only trimm to control its height. This is one of a few roses among my garden of 120 that will bloom from spring until late november. It makes for a excellent cut flower, has staying power in the vase and on the cane. I loved this so much that i purchased the Red Travita,LOL. Cant go wrong with this one, great rose!
Additional pruning tips for healthy, beautiful, productive roses:- Whether you’re deadheading, removing dead wood, or performing an annual pruning, make sure your cuts are no more than ¼ inch (5 mm) above a bud, and slope the cut away from the bud, to prevent water from collecting on it.
- Your cuts should always be clean, so keep your pruning shears sharp, and use pruning tools that are appropriately sized to whatever size stems you are cutting.
- To encourage an open-centered form, cut to an outward-facing bud. To encourage upright growth on roses with a spreading habit, prune a few of the stems to inward-facing buds.
- Prune any dieback to the healthy, white pith.
- Remove dead or diseased stems, as well as any that cross or are spindly.
- Your goal should be to have well-spaced stems that allow for a free flow of air.
- If pruning an established plant, remove any old wood that is flowering poorly, and use a saw to get rid of old stubs that are no longer producing new shoots.
- Other than climbing roses, you should prune newly planted roses hard, which encourages vigorous shoot production.
- When removing suckers, trace them back to the roots from which they are growing, and simply take them off.
