Abracadabra Rose Plant “Hocus Pocus Rose”

Abracadabra Rose is a Floribunda garden rose and has to be the most unusual rose we have ever grown. Blooms are striking and stunning with their rich striped light blends and strong yellows with red and purple stripes and blotches. As the name implies, you never know what you are going to get, every bloom is different and sometimes buds and trusses are completely in one colour and sometimes it may be the whole plant. A true Floribunda rose with flowers in clusters of up to 7 per truss. Mid-green glossy foliage. A near to thornless rose.

Environment

Roses are fairly low maintenance. They perform best in full sun. This produces the most significant and biggest number of blossoms while preventing any foliar diseases. However, roses do well in part sun, particularly in warmer climates where sheltered afternoon sun keeps them cool during the heat of the day and also helps create the most intense fragrance.

Roses require well-drained soil to thrive. Because some types rebloom and thrive, make sure to amend the soil with rich, well-aged compost and add fertilizer

Roses benefit from regular pruning to keep them looking their best while encouraging healthy flowers. Prune in late winter, just before new growth emerges. A general rule is to prune back your rose back by about one-third of the total height to maintain its current size and shape.

Uneven soil moisture and drought encourage fungal diseases, so remove any dead or dying branches. Pruning also helps with air circulation around the plant, which can prevent powdery mildew and black spot fungus.
