🌞 Planting & Care (Toowoomba Tips):
'Dolly Parton' thrives in the sunny, elevated climate of Toowoomba. Plant in a full-sun position with at least 6 hours of sunlight per day and ensure well-drained, enriched soil. Regular feeding with a quality rose fertiliser during the growing season will encourage prolific flowering and healthy foliage. Prune in winter to maintain shape and vitality.
Water deeply during dry periods and mulch well to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds. This rose performs particularly well in Toowoomba’s cooler nights, which help intensify the bloom colour and fragrance.
💡 Design Ideas:
Use as a striking specimen rose in formal beds.
Plant near entertaining areas or pathways where the scent can be enjoyed.
Combine with softer-coloured roses or lavender to create dramatic contrast.
Grow in large pots for patio brilliance.
