New plantings require more frequent watering than established plants. Wind, temperature and soil are factors to consider in watering.
Feed plants in early spring and again in early fall with an all-purpose fertilizer, following label instructions.
Care Instructions
To ensure your rose bush remains healthy and vibrant, it's important to provide enough sunlight and water on a regular basis. Make sure soil is well draining. Remove any dead foliage and faded blooms, on a regular basis, to encourage new growth. Pruning should be done in the late winter or early spring to keep the shape of the plant in good condition.
