The Fairy is a dwarf shrub rose that produces abundant cascading clusters of small and delicate, rosette-like, double pink flowers up to 1½”. Very faint fragrance. The blossoms stand out against the beautiful, fern-like glossy green foliage. Blooms continuously from early summer until frost, with a compact, graceful, spreading habit. An exceptional choice for containers, ground cover, or flowering hedge. Very resilient with an ability to thrive in average conditions compared to more delicate roses. It is also known as Féerie (its French name) or simple as Fairy Rose. In general, pruning is recommended in the spring before new leaves appear. Remove dead, damaged or crossing canes to create an open center to encourage airflow and reduce disease. Reduce the overall height by one-third to one-half to encourage vigorous new growth and blooms. Regularly deadhead spent blooms to promote reblooming throughout the season. Keep the plant tidy by removing thin, twiggy growth. (Recommendations may vary based on your USDA hardiness zone, the age of your rose, and where it is planted.)
