Our Tips & Recommendations

Watering

Water deeply twice a week during the first growing season. Once established, roses are moderately drought-tolerant but perform best with consistent moisture at the base.

Pruning

Prune in late winter before new growth begins. Remove dead or crossing branches and shape to an open vase form to improve air circulation and encourage blooms.
