🌿 Care Guide
Watering
Roses require consistent moisture but will not tolerate soggy, wet roots; ensure good drainage.
Fertilizer
Use fertilizers made specifically for roses or organic options like manure.
Pruning
Prune in late winter or early spring, specifically when dormant buds begin to swell but before leaves unfurl (typically late February to early April). Cut 1/4 inch above an outward-facing bud at a 45-degree angle.
Pests & Diseases
Generally disease resistant, but standard rose care for pests and diseases is recommended.
