It carries deciduous foliage and prefers a south-facing, sheltered situation in full sun. Plant in neutral loam that remains moist but is well drained; it is rated H6, very hardy for UK gardens.

In the garden

Rosa Amanda ('Beesian') is a cultivated garden rose used either as a shrub or trained as a climber or rambler; it produces its flowers from June to September. The foliage is deciduous, so the plant drops leaves in winter and regrows in spring before the summer flowering season. Give it a sunny, south-facing spot that is sheltered from harsh winds. It prefers loam of neutral pH that stays moist but drains freely; avoid waterlogged positions. H6 hardiness means it is very hardy in the UK and will withstand most winter conditions provided the root run is kept frost-free and soil is not continually waterlogged. Choose planting locations that reflect its habit: allow room in flower borders and beds for a multi-stemmed shrub form, plant in lines for hedging and screening, or grow in a large container on a sunny patio. If you train it as a climber or rambler, tie new shoots to supports and aim for a sheltered, south-facing wall to encourage an extended flowering display from June through September.
