Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Unpack and Assess: Upon arrival, unpack the rose and examine the packaging. Roses may have been pruned back to encourage regrowth, which is normal.
  2. Watering: Water the rose immediately after unpacking. Keep the soil moist but not soggy.
  3. Sunlight: Place the rose in a location that receives at least six hours of sunlight daily.
  4. Repotting: If the rose is root-bound, consider repotting it into a larger container with well-draining soil. Alternatively, plant it directly into a garden bed.
  5. Pruning: Prune the rose in late winter or early spring to remove dead or weak stems. This encourages new growth and flowering. Follow care instructions on the label.
