In the garden

Rosa Jester ('Koruhlneu') is a cultivated rose within the Rosaceae that can be used as a shrub, a trained climber or allowed to ramble. It carries deciduous leaves and puts on its display from June to September, making it valuable where extended summer flowering is wanted. Choose a south-facing, sheltered site in full sun and plant into a moist but well-drained loam of neutral pH. H6 hardiness means the rose is very hardy in UK conditions, though newly planted specimens benefit from protection in their first winters. Prepare the planting hole with friable soil, firm the rootball to avoid air pockets and keep the soil consistently moist until the bush is established. Rosa Jester fits flower borders and beds, can form informal hedging or screening and will grow in a large container or on a patio if given good soil and light. When using it as a climber or rambler, run and tie young shoots along supports to build a framework for later flowering shoots to scramble through; this encourages a balanced, expansive habit rather than isolated long canes.
