Product description
A China Wedding Rose is the perfect gift to help celebrate a 20th wedding anniversary. Red Roses are a symbol of love which make them an ideal gift for your significant other or for a couple celebrating their 20th anniversary.
Rose bouquets can be expensive, considering they will last a week or so; a living Gardeners Dream rose will flourish for years to come.
All of our gift roses are potted and presented with a large, attractive colour label with a picture and care instructions. We’ll also include a small personalised gift card on which you can write any special message you wish to include with your rose. If you would like us to write this out for you prior to dispatch, please contact us immediately after purchase with your message.
Gardeners Dream Gift Rose Collection features an abundance of vibrant colours for celebratory, commemorative and congratulatory occasions; wedding roses, birthday roses, anniversary roses, retirement roses, Mother’s Day roses and more.
Please Note: Roses may be pruned back to encourage re-growth. Rest assured, if your gift rose arrives without foliage, it has been pruned with the best interests of the plant at heart and will soon flourish once again.
Garden Plant Size Guide
Plants in larger pots can be multiple years older than their smaller counterparts with more mature root systems and foliage. This makes them able to thrive as a full size plant in your garden quicker than smaller alternatives.
The most common size of pot that garden plants come in are 9cm/1L/3L/5L this is in reference to the diameter at the top of the pot.
9cm potted plants still remain the most popular cost effective option though, they just may take a little patience to allow them to grow into full maturity once planted in your garden.

Top Tip
Prune roses in late winter or early spring to encourage healthy growth and blooms. Remove dead, damaged, or crossing stems, and cut above outward-facing buds. Regular pruning improves airflow, reduces disease risk, and keeps your rose bushes thriving.
How to Water
Water roses deeply at the base 1–2 times per week, depending on weather, to keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Avoid overhead watering to prevent fungal diseases. Early morning is best to allow leaves to dry quickly. Mulch helps retain soil moisture and reduce watering needs.
How to Plant
To plant roses, choose a sunny spot with well-draining soil. Dig a hole twice as wide and deep enough to place the root ball with the graft union slightly above soil level. Mix compost into the soil, backfill, and firm gently. Water thoroughly and mulch to retain moisture. Space plants 60-90cm apart.
