Description

Enjoy abundant flowering displays of fragrant blooms with such appealing petal colour - your beds, borders, or pots won't look the same again!

Classy and traditional, named after a legend of English folklore, the blooms of Rose 'Sir Lancelot' are delicate in appearance, yet are able to withstand heavy winds without damage.

Rose pink Floribunda blooms repeat flower each summer, into early autumn, all the while producing a strong aroma. The plant stands upright with dense foliage cover and plenty of blooms, which emerge across a long period, whether planted in patio pots, mixed borders, or rose beds.

Supplied as a bare root rose, ready to plant.

Top Tips
Soak this bare root overnight before planting and do not allow it to dry out once planted, particularly from March to May. Feed well in first year to get established, and deadhead as needed to prolong flowering. Mulch with well-rotted manure or composted bark in first autumn.
Care Information
  • Roses can be planted at any time of the year, as long as soil conditions are not frozen, waterlogged or drought-dry.
  • Plant your rose where it can get plenty of sun for at least half of the day, and where it will be sheltered from the wind.
  • Add plenty of well-rotted manure into the hole and plant so that the graft union - the swollen area when the stems meet the roots - is just below soil level.
  • Water well every other day, daily if the weather is hot and dry.
  • Established roses can be watered around once a week through spring and summer - more if the weather is hot.
  • For best results, feed roses in late-March/April and again in late July.
  • To prune, just remove any dead, dying, damaged and diseased stems.
  • Traditionally, you would cut just above a leaf joint with a sloping cut away from the bud, however, this isn't necessary, and don’t worry about pruning too much - roses are very resilient and will grow back.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
