Troubleshooting

Rose not flowering

Ensure the plant is receiving at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily. Check for adequate watering and consider a spring feed with a balanced rose fertilizer.

Leaves yellowing

This could indicate overwatering or poor drainage. Ensure the soil is not waterlogged. It may also be a sign of nutrient deficiency; consider a feed.

Pest infestation (e.g., aphids)

Hose off pests with water or use an appropriate insecticidal soap. Encourage natural predators by planting companion plants.

Wilting plant

Check soil moisture. If dry, water thoroughly. If soil is wet, ensure good drainage and avoid overwatering. Check for any signs of disease or root damage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Carefully remove the rose from its protective gift wrapping.
  2. Prepare a planting hole in your desired location. Ensure the spot receives at least 6 hours of sunlight per day.
  3. Gently remove the rose from its 4-litre pot. If the roots are tightly bound, carefully loosen them.
  4. Place the rose in the hole so that the top of the root ball is level with the surrounding soil.
  5. Backfill the hole with soil, firming gently around the base of the plant.
  6. Water thoroughly after planting.

Compatibility:

  • Planting Companions: Pairs well with other roses, perennials, and flowering plants in shades of red, purple, and cream.

Care:

  • Watering: Water regularly, especially during dry periods, ensuring the soil remains consistently moist but not waterlogged.

  • Feeding: Apply a balanced rose fertilizer in spring and again in early summer, following product instructions.
