Growing and Maintenance Tips
Roses prefer moist, well drained, slightly acidic soils but are known to be quite adaptable to soils except for very wet areas. Prune in spring, cutting back to just above large buds. Plant in full sun with good air circulation for best performance. Deadheading will promote more continuous bloom.
