Watering

Give roses a good soak, then leave them to draw from that reserve; morning watering is best to allow leaves to dry naturally.

Apply fertilizer throughout the growing and flowering season, all the way into the fall.

Pruning

Prune in late winter or early spring to remove dead, diseased, or rubbing growth.

Pests & Diseases

Aphids, caterpillars, black spot, rust, and mildew.
