Planting & Care
🌱 Planting:
Choose a sunny location with well-drained, fertile garden soil. Dig a hole wider than the root system and plant at approximately the same depth as the plant was growing in its container. Water thoroughly after planting.
💧 Watering:
Water regularly during the establishment period to help develop a strong root system. Once established, provide additional water during prolonged hot or dry periods. Avoid consistently waterlogged soil.
🌸 Fertilizing:
Apply a balanced fertilizer formulated for roses in spring and follow the product label directions. Avoid excessive fertilizer, which can encourage excessive leafy growth.
🌿 Mulching:
Apply a layer of organic mulch around the root zone to help retain soil moisture and regulate soil temperature. Keep mulch slightly away from the main stems.
✂️ Pruning:
Prune in late winter or early spring to remove weak, damaged, or crossing branches and maintain the desired shape. Remove spent flowers as needed to keep the plant looking tidy.
☀️ Sunlight & Climate:
Provide full sun for the best flowering and overall growth. Choose a location with good air circulation. Water more frequently during periods of extreme heat or extended drought.
