🌿 Care Guide
Watering
Watering should be supplied by the gardener in dry climates to supplement rain; overhead watering is acceptable and can help keep foliage clean and deter some pests.
Fertilizer
Apply a granular rose fertilizer in March and June; a mid-summer application of tomato fertilizer can encourage a richer second flush of flowers.
Pruning
Prune once annually; remove dead or weak wood in spring and trim back roughly one-third of the previous year's growth.
