🌿 Care Guide
Watering
Keep soil evenly moist during establishment; mature plants need about 1 inch of water per week, applied at the base.
Fertilizer
Feed with a balanced fertilizer formulated for roses every 4-6 weeks during the growing season.
Pruning
Spring pruning: remove old canes and dead or diseased wood and cut back canes that cross. In warmer climates, cut back remaining canes by about one-third; in colder areas, prune more.
