Care Instructions
- Light: Requires full sun (at least 6 hours daily). In extremely hot climates, some dappled afternoon shade can help prevent the delicate lavender petals from "fading" or scorching.
- Watering: Provide deep, regular watering at the base of the plant. Like most floribundas, it prefers consistently moist soil but cannot tolerate "wet feet."
- Soil: Thrives in rich, well-draining soil (pH 6.0–6.5).
- Maintenance:
- Pruning: Prune in late winter or early spring. Remove dead or spindly wood and cut back healthy canes by about one-third to encourage a rounded, bushy shape. Monrovia
- Feeding: Use a balanced rose fertilizer after the first bloom flush to support its repeat-flowering nature.
- Disease Prevention: This variety is somewhat susceptible to black spot, especially in humid areas. Ensure excellent air circulation and consider a preventative organic spray.
Design Tip: The lavender-ruby tones of 'Angel Face' look spectacular when paired with silver-foliage plants like Dusty Miller or Lamb’s Ear.
