🌿 Care Guide
Watering
Deep soak 1–2 times a week, ensuring about 2 inches of water per week during the growing season.
Fertilizer
Use a balanced fertilizer or one formulated for roses; begin in spring after pruning and feed again after each major flush of blooms.
Pruning
Prune in late winter or early spring, just as buds begin to swell (often when forsythia blooms).
Pests & Diseases
Generally disease resistant, though roses in general are susceptible to common pests and diseases like blackspot and powdery mildew.
