Dead head as the blooms fade, as Madame de la Roche-Lambert will occasionally repeat flower later in the summer or in a warm autumn. Feed with blood fish and bone in early spring and after the first flower flush. Prune lightly after the first flush of flowers as next years blooms are formed on the previous year’s growth

Growing Madame de la Roche-Lambert from seed

Roses can be grown from seed but seedlings will not always resemble the parent plant. Usually roses are propagated from hard wood cuttings in the autumn or from grafts
Take 30 to 40 cm hard wood cuttings and strip off all but the top two leaves. Dip into rooting hormone and insert into a trench with added grit prepared in less sunny part of the garden. The cuttings will be ready for individual planting the following autumn

Transplanting Madame de la Roche-Lambert

Choose a sunny spot and plant bare rooted roses in the late autumn or winter. Dig a large hole and add blood fish and bone to the back fill, watering in the newly planted rose
Container grown roses can be planted out at any time of year, provided watering is attended to.

Madame de la Roche-Lambert is hardy, so ensure you wait until all danger of frost has passed in your area before considering planting outside.
