How to Care for the Plant

Water
Give your roses 1 to 2 inches of water each week -- in single watering session -- from early spring through fall. Increase the frequency to every three or four days in hot and dry weather.
Pruning
For best results, cut back Roses in early spring after the last hard frost to 10" to 18". Remove all winter-injured or damaged wood. Never prune in the fall or winter, as this is the time roses are preparing for dormancy, and you do not want to create unnecessary growth.
Fertilizer
Watering after fertilizing helps to move nutrients into the root zone. Start fertilizing in early spring and stop in late summer or fall: Make your first application about four to six weeks before growth begins in spring or, in areas where winters are cold, about the time you take off your winter protection.
