Description

The Rise Up series of roses can be grown as a “mini climber” or as a shrub, whichever you prefer. Thanks to the breeding efforts of Chris Warner in the UK, these vigorous, disease resistant, reblooming roses keep a neat and dense habit with a range of uses in the landscape or garden. Rise Up ‘Lilac Days’ Rose features exceptionally fragrant and uniquely colored double flowers with petals in shades of lilac-blue surrounding yellow stamens. The self-cleaning flowers appear all summer without the need for deadheading. At only 2 to 4 feet wide and 5 to 8 feet tall, Rise Up ‘Lilac Days’ is a perfect fit for small garden spaces or to grow on fences, trellises and posts.

Landscape & Garden Uses

Growing 5 to 8 feet tall and 2 to 4 feet wide, depending on training, the Rise Up ‘Lilac Days’ Rose is ideal for use as a shrub or climbing rose. As a shrub, she is ideal for use as a specimen, in groupings or as a colorful hedge in landscape and flowering shrub borders and home foundation plantings. As a climber, she is perfect for training to grow on fences and rails, trellises, or a mailbox post. This rose is so reliable and attractive throughout the season we have no problem suggesting it for use in home foundation plantings. A fine addition to rose gardens, cottage gardens and blue or purple theme gardens.

Growing Preferences

The Rise Up ‘Lilac Days’ Rose is easy to grow in most any moist but well-drained soil of average fertility and full sun to part shade. As with all other roses, to avoid powdery mildew on the leaves, morning sun is a must to dry dew from the leaves. Afternoon shade or filtered sun is fine. We suggest a minimum of 6 hours of direct sun light for best flowering.

Maintenance is minimal. Rise Up ‘Lilac Days’ Rose does not require pruning, however can benefit from it for training purposes. To keep her full and bushy as a shrub from year to year prune the branches back to about 15-18 inches above the ground in late winter or early spring. After this hard pruning, she will quickly flush out new growth and start blooming with the arrival of warmer temperatures. As a climber there is no need for pruning. Deadheading spent flowers through the season is not necessary however will encourage more new buds and blooms.

The rose bush, Lilac Days, arrived so fresh and so tall, already with two buds that opened up while waiting for me to transplant it. Unfortunately, the weather has been so brutal, the ground is too dry and the high temperature will not help. I cut the bottom of its original container and placed it inside of a larger pot until Autumn. It is not performing the same as if it was on the ground, but, at least, will not die. It looks so gorgeous next to my Seven Sons tree, surrounding my patio. Waiting for summer to end so I can order other plants to complete the enclosing of my patio where I have my hammock and bistro set to enjoy the romantic atmosphere nature offers me. Very pleased, again with my new acquisition from Wilson Bros Gardens!—————————————————We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy it for years to come! Thanks for the kind words and great review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG
