Height and Spread

• Height: Rosa Queen Elizabeth typically grows to a height of 4 to 6 feet (approximately 120 to 180 centimeters), making it an ideal choice for background plantings or as an impressive focal point in your garden.
• Spread: With its vigorous and upright growth habit, this rose can spread to about 3 to 4 feet (approximately 90 to 120 centimeters).

Cultivation and Maintenance

Planting:

• Sunlit brilliance: Rosa Queen Elizabeth thrives in a location that receives full sun for at least 6 hours per day, ensuring optimal flower production and overall health.
• Well-draining soil: Ensure the soil is fertile, well-draining, and enriched with organic matter to support healthy root development and nourishment.
• Planting depth: When planting container-grown roses, ensure the graft union (the swollen area where the stems meet the roots) is at or slightly below the soil level.
• Spacing: Provide ample space between each rose bush to encourage proper air circulation and to prevent overcrowding as they mature.

Watering:

• Consistent hydration: During the growing season, maintain regular watering to keep the soil evenly moist, avoiding both drought stress and overwatering.
• Water at the base: Water the rose at the base to prevent wetting the foliage, which can lead to fungal diseases.

Pruning:

• Prune with precision: Conduct annual pruning during late winter or early spring before new growth emerges. Remove dead, weak, or crossing branches and shape the rose to maintain its desired form.
• Deadheading: Promote continuous blooming by promptly removing faded flowers.

Fertilizing:

• Nourishing support: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in spring and again in mid-summer to provide essential nutrients for vigorous growth and abundant blossoms.

Pest and Disease Control:

• Vigilance is key: Regularly inspect the rose bushes for any signs of pests or diseases, and take appropriate measures if detected.
• Disease prevention: To prevent common rose diseases such as black spot and powdery mildew, ensure good air circulation and avoid overhead watering.
