Care instructions

Roses thrive in full sun (at least 6 hours daily) and well-drained, fertile soil. Water deeply and regularly, especially during dry periods, to encourage root growth. Fertilize in spring and mid-summer with a balanced rose fertilizer. Prune in late winter or early spring to remove dead or weak wood and shape the plant. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage more flowering. Watch for common pests like aphids and diseases like black spot and powdery mildew, treating as necessary.
