The Neil Diamond rose

Posted on November 25, 2023

The Neil Diamond rose is a captivating hybrid tea rose that has garnered admiration for its stunning velvety red blooms and strong, classic fragrance. Introduced in 2015 by Tom Carruth, this exquisite rose embodies the essence of rock and roll legend Neil Diamond, adding a touch of rhythm and vibrancy to any garden.

Characteristics of the Neil Diamond Rose:

  • Bloom Size: Medium to large, about 4 to 5 inches in diameter
  • Color: Deep, velvety red with crimson undertones and white speckle
  • Fragrance: Strong, classic rose fragrance with hints of spice and fruit
  • Height: 4-6 feet
  • Width: 3-4 feet
  • Hardiness Zone: 6-9
  • Bloom Time: Late spring to early fall
  • Disease Resistance: Excellent resistance to black spot and powdery mildew

Care and Cultivation:

  • Sun Exposure: Prefers full sun to partial shade for at least 6-8 hours daily to encourage abundant blooms and healthy growth.
  • Soil Type: Thrives in well-drained, fertile soil with a slightly acidic pH of 6.0 to 6.5. Amend the soil with organic matter like compost or aged manure to improve drainage and nutrient content.
  • Watering: Water regularly, especially during hot, dry periods. Provide deep and infrequent watering to encourage deep root development. Aim for 1-2 inches of water per week during dry spells.
  • Fertilizing: Fertilize every 4-6 weeks during the growing season with a balanced rose fertilizer.
  • Pruning: Prune in late winter or early spring to remove dead, diseased, or damaged canes, and maintain a desired shape. Also, prune to control the height and width of the plant.
  • Pest and Disease Control: Monitor for common rose pests like aphids, spider mites, and Japanese beetles. Use organic or least-toxic control methods whenever possible. Protect against fungal diseases like black spot and mildew by improving air circulation and avoiding overhead watering.

Additional Tips:

  • Deadhead spent blooms to promote continuous flowering and prevent the plant from expending energy on seed production.
  • Mulch around the base of the rose to retain moisture, suppress weeds, and protect the roots during winter.

With proper care and attention, you can cultivate a thriving Neil Diamond rose that will grace your garden with its stunning velvety red blooms and intoxicating fragrance for many years to come. Its rich, vibrant color and classic scent will add a touch of rock and roll spirit and timeless elegance to your outdoor space.
