Fertilizer
Fertilize in the spring using a plant food formulated for roses; continue to fertilize every few weeks until late summer.
Pruning
Prune in late winter or early spring after the threat of frost has passed. Remove old, dead, or diseased wood and thin out crossed or spindly canes. In warmer climates, cut back remaining canes by one-third.
