FAQs

How often should I water the rose?

Water the rose regularly, especially during dry periods. The soil should remain moist but not waterlogged. Check the soil moisture by inserting your finger about an inch deep. If it feels dry, it's time to water.

When should I prune the rose?

Prune the rose annually, usually in late winter or early spring, before new growth begins. Remove any dead or diseased canes and shape the plant as desired.

What kind of fertilizer should I use?

Use a rose fertilizer during the growing season (spring and summer). Follow the instructions on the fertilizer package for the correct application rate.

What if my rose arrives pruned back?

Roses may be pruned back to encourage re-growth. Rest assured, if your gift rose arrives without foliage, it has been pruned with the best interests of the plant at heart and will soon flourish once again.

Can I plant the rose in a pot?

Yes, you can plant the rose in a pot, provided the pot is large enough to accommodate the roots and has good drainage. Make sure the rose gets enough sunlight.

What if my rose is attacked by pests?

Inspect the rose regularly for pests. If you notice any, use an appropriate insecticide or contact a local gardening expert for advice.

What is included with the rose?

Each rose comes with a personalized gift card, a large, attractive color label with a picture, and care instructions.

Troubleshooting

Rose is not flowering.

Ensure the rose is receiving enough sunlight, has been pruned correctly, and is being fertilized during the growing season.
