🌿 Care Guide

Watering

At least one inch of water per week during the growing season; water in the morning to keep foliage dry.

Fertilizer

Fertilize during the growing season to support vigor and blooming, avoiding excessive nitrogen.

Pruning

Prune in early spring to remove deadwood, control growth, and promote flowering; stems can be cut back by one-third to one-half.

Pests & Diseases

Prone to fungus problems like black spot in hot, humid areas; watch for rose slugs.
