Setup, Compatibility & Care

Planting: Choose a location with plenty of sunlight and well-draining soil. Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and just as deep. Place the rose in the hole, ensuring the bud union (the knobby part at the base of the stems) is slightly below the soil surface. Backfill with soil, gently firming it around the roots.
Watering: Water deeply after planting and regularly during the growing season, especially during dry spells. Avoid overwatering, which can lead to root rot.
Fertilizing: Feed the rose with a balanced rose fertilizer in early spring and again after the first flush of blooms.
Pruning: Prune the rose annually in late winter or early spring to remove dead or crossing branches. This will encourage new growth and improve airflow.
Pest and Disease Control: Monitor for common rose pests and diseases, such as aphids, black spot, and powdery mildew. Treat as needed with appropriate insecticides or fungicides.
