A plant to add to your garden must-have list, Magnolia 'Susan' produces delicately-fragranced, burgundy-pink flowers from mid-spring. This absolute stunner of a plant is ideal for smaller gardens, where its fragrant flowers will attract early pollinators - (as well as comments from your neighbours). The slightly twisted, six-petalled, flowers open up to form a goblet shape, and cover the tree from tip to trunk in gorgeous colour before the mid-green leaves emerge. Grow in moist, humus-rich, well-drained soil in sun or partial shade with shelter from cold winds. Late frosts may damage flower buds, so keep some fleece handy to throw over it in case cold nights threaten. Supplied as a 3L standard plant 80-90cm tall.

Theses roses are also suitable for container growing so you can enjoy on the patio too. Height 1m (3ft)Top Tips- To prune, just remove any dead, dying, damaged and diseased stems and also deadhead regularly. Traditionally, you would cut just above a leaf joint with a sloping cut away from the bud, however, this isn't necessary, and dont worry about pruning too much - roses are very resilient and will grow back. When pruning, make sure that your secateurs are clean and sharp to prevent squashing stems and introducing disease. Add mycorrhizal fungi to the roots when planting to help the plant establish quicker.Care Guide- Roses can be planted at any time of the year, as long as the soil is not frozen, waterlogged or drought-dry.- Plant your rose where it can get plenty of sun for at least half of the day, and where it will be sheltered from the wind.- Roses tolerate wide range of soils but thrive in deep, humus-rich, moist but well-drained soil, so add plenty of well-rotted manure into the hole if necessary.- Water well every other day - daily if the weather is hot and dry.- Established roses can be watered around once a week through spring and summer - more if the weather is hot.- For best results, feed roses in in late-March/April and again late July.Planting Time:November - AprilFlowering Time:June - OctoberAbout You GardenEstablished for over 50 years, our award winning trusted plant supplier are based in South Lincolnshire.

Please see description below for full product details.You can now enjoy true year-round interest with vibrant flower colour, brightly coloured berries and stems, tactile bark and wonderfully fragrant flowers from the 12 varieties below:Symphoricarpos albus, Syringa vulgaris. Cornus alba, Tamarix tetandra, Spirea douglasii, Forsythia intermedia 'Spectabilis', Hypericum Hidcote, Deutzia scabra, Berberis thunbergii 'Atropurpurea', Philadelphus coronarius, Weigela rosea.Please note: These plants are supplied dormant and without leaves, looking more like dried twigs, and will establish in the ground over winter. They will not show signs of growth until the weather warms in spring, when they will burst into leaf. Supplied as 12 freshly lifted 2-year-old bare root bushes, 1 each of the 12 varieties. Top Tips- On receipt, soak the roots in water for at least 2 hours (overnight is better). If you can't plant straight away, they should be fine for up to a week if left in a cool, dark, frost-free place - keep the bag around the roots with some water inside. Don't worry if the roots have been cut quite harshly this is done to encourage the plant to grow.- Bare root plants are dormant, with no leaves, and with the roots out of the soil.- The season runs from November to April, depending on the weather. Some larger or slower-growing plants will already be a few years old on supply, and ready to thrive straight away in your garden.Care Guide- Select an appropriate spot for your plants, making sure that you give them enough space to grow to their full size.- Dig a hole twice the width of the roots, forking over the bottom to loosen the soil, and add some good quality fertiliser such as Blood, Fish and Bone.- Aim to plant at the same depth as the soil mark on the trunk.- Holding the tree or plant upright in position with one hand, slowly backfill the hole with soil, and gently shake the plant, so the soil falls back around the roots.- Use your heel to compact the soil around the plant to ensure good contact around the roots.- If you are planting into pots, place some old rocks, stones or gravel in the bottom of the pot for drainage and ballast. Use the best compost you can buy.- When the soil and air warm up from late March onwards, you should see the plant burst into life.- Do not allow plants to dry out in the first four months after planting. Once established for one season, they will become much more tolerant to a lack of water, as the root system develops.- There is no real need to prune for the first 2 years, then prune to the shape and size you want. Remove any broken, diseased or crossing branches in late autumn or winter to control size.- Prune established trees in summer using good-quality secateurs, removing weak shoots, and cutting out those that cross over each other, to create an evenly spaced bowl shape.Planting Time:October - AprilFlowering Time:March - OctoberAbout You GardenEstablished for over 50 years, our award winning trusted plant supplier are based in South Lincolnshire.
