🌿 Care Guide
Watering
Water regularly to establish a mature root system; once established, water occasionally, increasing frequency during extreme heat or drought.
Fertilizer
Use a balanced fertilizer or one formulated for roses; apply after the first bloom cycle. Avoid fertilizing late in the summer to prevent new growth that may be damaged by frost.
Pruning
Pruning is not strictly required, but light pruning in late winter or spring is recommended to maintain shape and vigor; annual shearing after flowering is also an option.
Pests & Diseases
Generally disease resistant, but can be susceptible to Cercospora leaf spot, powdery mildew, and chilli thrips.
