🌿 Care Guide
Watering

Fertilizer
Apply a balanced, slow-release rose fertilizer in early spring.
Pruning
Prune in late winter or early spring to remove dead or weak wood and encourage strong new growth. Light shaping after major bloom flushes helps maintain a tidy habit.
Pests & Diseases
Generally disease resistant, specifically to powdery mildew, rust, and black spot.
