Intrigue Floribunda Rose Care
Plant this rose in full sun for maximum height, or partial shade. Plant at any time of the year, except in extreme weather. It does best in moist, well-drained soil, with a moderately acidic to slightly alkaline pH. Normal soil as well as loamy soil are ideal, but this rose can adapt to many different types of soils and climate conditions. It can survive very cold conditions, and is heat and humidity resistant as well. During dry weather, make sure to soak the plant about every seven to ten days, and water it less during rainy weather. Make sure to feed it plenty of fertilizer during the growing season; roses are known to be heavy feeders.
Prune in the spring by trimming old and dead canes and any canes that cross to avoid them rubbing together, which causes damage to the plant over time. In winter, trim back canes by at least one-third; in colder zones, trim back more than one-third of the volume. To protect against winter temperatures and winds, wrap plants in the ground in burlap or evergreen boughs, pile soil over the base of the plant, and mulch. Protect plants in the ground against frost in the spring by simply watering them thoroughly, which makes the ground more insulated against the cold, and covering with a plant cover, blanket, or bucket. If grown in a container, water more often, and protect against the cold by moving Intrigue Floribunda to a sheltered area facing south, for maximum sunlight and warmth. In more extreme cold weather, protect your potted roses by placing them in a cardboard box, pot and all, with shredded paper or dry leaves filling the rest of the box.
Intrigue Floribunda Rose Spacing
A mature plant will be around three to five feet in height, and two to three feet wide. Make sure to leave enough space around the plant for it to be accessible for maintenance.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
