It's ideal for growing at the back of a border and is particularly suited to growing as a hedge.

For best results, grow Rosa 'Kew Gardens' in moist but well-drained soil in full sun to partial shade. Prepare the soil well before planting, and mulch yearly with well-rotted manure or garden compost. Deadhead spent blooms in summer to prolong flowering.
