Floribunda roses have many flowers per stem and tend to repeat-flower continuously from summer to late autumn.

Position:  Give them an open sunny position and any deep well-drained soil including clay.

Cultural advice:  They need plenty of nutrients so add Bonemeal and garden compost or well-rotted manure when planting. Rootgrow (mycorrhizal beneficial fungi) sprinkled on the roots will aid root development. Use a rose fertiliser such as Toprose during the growing season.

Pruning:  Prune Floribunda roses in early March, removing any dead, weak, diseased or crossing stems. Aim to keep the centre open. Cut back the strongest remaining shoots down to within 25-30cm (10in-1ft) of soil level. Deadhead regularly.
