Rose 'Amber Queen'

Can be used for beds and borders, container rose, cut flower or garden. Disease susceptibility: very disease resistant. ¹

Plant in a location that enjoys partial sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Amber Queen is thought of as hardy, so this plant will survive close to or on freezing temperatures. Ideally plant in loamy soil and try to keep the ph of your soil between the range of 4.5 and 8.0 as Amber Queen likes to be in moderately acidic soil to weakly alkaline soil.

Hybrid variety. Will not reliably grow true to type from seed.

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Amber Queen is a hardy plant.

‘Rosemary Harkness’ was the name originally intende for this variety, but when it won Britain’s Rose of the Year competition, a change was made on grounds of commercial acceptability. The synonym ‘Prinz Eugen von Savoyen’ comes from an Austrian national hero. ³
