Planting & Care

1. Planting: Plant or repot within 4 weeks of arrival. Choose a location that receives full sun and has well-draining soil. Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and place the plant in, ensuring the crown is level with the soil surface. Fill in with soil and water thoroughly. Spread a 3" layer of mulch three feet around the plant, pulling it back a few inches from the base.

2. Watering: Water regularly, especially during dry spells, ensuring the soil remains moist but not soggy. Deep watering is preferable to promote strong root development. Always check the top inch of soil before watering to prevent overwatering.

3. Pruning: Prune in late winter or early spring to encourage new growth and remove any dead or damaged wood. Prune out crossing or inward-growing stems, which promotes air circulation and overall plant health.

4. Fertilizing: Fertilize with a balanced rose fertilizer in early spring and again in mid-summer to promote vibrant blooms. Follow the recommended rates on the product label to avoid over-fertilization.
