Growing Gold Flower Carpet Roses

Typically used in mass planting schemes, they will need watering in dry weather for their first two years. By their third summer, they will have put down deep roots and will be quite drought tolerant. 

You do not need to be careful when pruning them. Go easy on your new plants while they establish for a year or two, and then slash them down to 20cm tall in early spring with shears or a hedge trimmer. This will ensure the best flower display, but especially in full sun, it is not essential, and your plants will still bloom well if you don't bother to cut them back every year.

These roses are pretty good at dropping their spent flowers, so there is little need to dead headed them.
