You'll adore the ombre effect of the uniquely colored blooms that leaves each large, 4" flowerhead looking a bit different from the other. These cupped, fully double blooms, which feature more than two dozen ruffled petals, grow in clusters and put on a remarkable floral display. Their fragrance is intoxicating and spicy sweet, and reminiscent of myrrh. As a result, the blooms stun as a cut flower in both appearance and scent. Your senses will relish Distant Drums' penchant for blooming throughout the summer months. The dark foliage produced by its upright, bushy habit further enhances the striking beauty of this rose in bloom. Grow it in a border or container. Rosa 'Distant Drums'

In cold climates, position the graft knot/crown 2 to 3 inches below ground level, in mild climates, position the graft knot/crown right at ground level. Place the plant at the proper height in the hole, and fill two-thirds full with the amended soil. Using a gentle stream of water, fill the remainder of the hole. As the water seeps in, it will moisten the roots and surrounding soil, removing any air pockets. After the water has completely settled, fill the hole to the top with the remaining soil. Sprinkle lightly with water to assure good moisture.
