Cera
The Cera rose is a well-branched and strongly growing rose. At the beginning of the first flowering period, the shrub is approximately 60 cm high, towards the end of the season the plant can grow to over 1 m high. Cera has a dark green and shiny leaf. Flowering starts in June. The first flowering is very lush and abundant with cardinal red flowers in large clusters. One cluster can contain more than fifty flowers. The flowers are semi-double and up to 7 cm in size. Cera continues to flower all summer long and is resistant to rain and sun. The plant has a very good disease resistance to both black spot and powdery mildew. This means that this rose retains its leaves throughout the entire growing season, so that the flower beds remain well filled. This shrub rose is especially suitable for large and smaller flower beds in gardens and parks and is very useful in public plantings.
Plant height up to 110cm.

Maintenance
Roses love the sun, so pick a spot for your roses where the summer sun will reach them for at least a few hours. Roses thrive in nutrient-rich soil. In spring and summer, you can use an organic fertilizer on your roses. Roses do not mind a dry spell; extra watering tends not to be necessary. Plant the roses at a 40-50 cm distance from each other or from other plants. When planting, place the spot where the stems turn into roots just below the surface, then firmly press the plants into the ground and water. Beautifully flowering roses are achieved by pruning in winter. Prune in February-March, but not when it is freezing. During pruning, remove thin and dead stems, leave just a few strong young stems and cut those down to a length of ±25 cm. In summer, you can encourage a second bloom by cutting off dead flowers.
