Plant Care

Will this plant thrive in your climate?

Make sure you live within USDA Zones 4-8 by checking our Grow Zone Guide.

Select a location with full sun (at least 6 hours of direct light) and excellent air circulation. Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and just as deep. It prefers moist, slightly acidic, well-draining soil. Enrich the soil with compost or aged manure at planting to provide a nutrient-rich foundation.

Prune in early spring just as new buds begin to emerge. Cut the plant back by approximately one-third of its total height and width to maintain a tidy shape and stimulate vigorous new growth. Remove any dead, damaged, or weak "spindly" wood at the center of the shrub to improve airflow.

Apply a granular rose-specific fertilizer in early spring when the soil becomes workable. To support its continuous blooming habit, provide a second application in mid-summer. Avoid high-nitrogen fertilizers late in the season to prevent tender new growth that could be damaged by frost.

In colder regions (USDA Zone 4-5), apply a 2-3 inch layer of mulch or composted manure around the base of the plant after the ground freezes to protect the root system. Ensure the plant is well-watered before the first hard freeze, as desiccated roots are more susceptible to winter kill.
