Rosa 'Little Cherub' is a delightful, bushy patio rose, bearing single, dark red flowers with a bright red centre, which contrast with beautiful, dark green foliage. It's ideal for growing in a large container on a sunny patio, or at the front of an ornamental border.
For best results grow Rosa 'Little Cherub' in fertile, moist but well-drained soil. Prune lightly in February to keep its shape, and remove any dead, diseased or dying wood. Mulch each autumn with organic matter such as well-rotted manure or compost.
