🌿 Care Guide
Watering
Water the soil around the base of the plant every 2–3 days in spring; established roses require consistent moisture, especially during hot summer months.
Fertilizer
Apply fertilizer throughout the growing and flowering season, continuing into the fall.
Pruning
Prune in late winter or early spring to shape the plant and remove dead, diseased, or rubbing stems; deadhead throughout the season to encourage repeat blooms.
Pests & Diseases
