As the Garden Grows

This rose is The Fairy. It’s a Polyantha rose.

This lovely rose grows to the size of about two feet and spreads approximately three to four feet. It blooms profusely several times each season with clusters of bead-like buds that open into globular pink flowers. It’s foliage is a nice deep shade of green and the plant is fairly resistant to most diseases.

The Fairy is also a hardy rose. Thriving in zones 4 to 9.

I barely ever have to do any special care for this rose. Each spring I might prune out a few of the branches that have died off, or thin the branches but that’s pretty much it. It’s very low care.

Does anyone else grow The Fairy?
