🌿 Care Guide
Watering
Keep soil consistently moist, providing deep, infrequent soakings at the base rather than frequent light sprinkling; increase watering in heat, sandy soil, or containers.
Fertilizer
Apply a balanced rose fertilizer in early spring, repeated after the first flush of blooms to fuel subsequent growth.
Pruning
Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth to an open, outward-facing framework; remove dead or diseased canes and deadhead throughout the season.
Pests & Diseases
Common issues include aphids, black spot, powdery mildew, and Japanese beetles.
