Care Guide
Water deeply once a day during the growing season; allow water to thoroughly soak the roots, not just the surface.
Provide a minimum of 6 hours of full, intense, direct sunlight daily.
Prune aggressively in late winter to remove dead wood and open up the center of the bush to improve airflow.
Common Problems & Solutions
Why are the leaves on my Rose Bush covered in black spots?
Black spot is a common fungal disease prevalent in humid conditions. Remove affected leaves and apply a fungicide immediately.
Why are holes appearing in my rose leaves?
Holes are typically caused by rose slugs or caterpillars. Inspect the undersides of the leaves closely and treat accordingly.
