🌿 Care Guide
Watering
Deep, infrequent soakings at the base; keep soil evenly moist during establishment, providing about 1 inch of water per week for mature plants.
Fertilizer
Apply a balanced rose fertilizer or rose-specific blend in early spring and again after the first bloom cycle; stop fertilizing 6-8 weeks before the first frost.
Pruning
Prune in late winter to an open, outward-facing framework; deadhead throughout the season to encourage repeat blooming.
Pests & Diseases
Susceptible to black spot in humid climates; not typically deer resistant.
