Planting & Care

Where to Plant

Sunlight: Give this rose at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight daily. While it can handle very light afternoon shade, full sun is essential to maintain the high-contrast yellow and red "ketchup and mustard" petal colors and to ensure a heavy flush of blooms.
Soil: This rose thrives in rich, well-drained soil with a loose texture. If you have heavy clay, mix in organic compost to improve drainage, or for sandy soil, add peat moss to help hold moisture and nutrients near the roots.

Watering Requirements

During the first growing season, water deep twice a week to ensure the roots grow deep into the soil. Once established, this rose is relatively hardy, but inconsistent watering will lead to smaller flowers and a shorter bloom cycle. Aim to keep the soil moist like a wrung-out sponge, specifically targeting the base of the plant to keep the foliage dry and disease-free.

Pruning Tips

Since this Floribunda blooms on new wood, you should prune in late winter or very early spring before new growth starts. Cut back the stems by about one-third and remove any thin, spindly "spaghetti" canes to redirect energy into the thick, productive ones. This "spring haircut" encourages a flush of fresh, vigorous stems that will carry the season's first heavy crop of roses.

Fertilizer Needs

Use a balanced rose fertilizer or a slow-release granular formula starting in early spring when the first leaves appear. Reapply after each major bloom cycle to give the plant the energy it needs to produce the next round of flowers. Avoid high-nitrogen fertilizers after mid-summer because they promote soft, tender growth that can be easily damaged by the first frost of winter.

#ProPlantTips for Care:

These easy-to-grow Rose bushes thrive in the full sun! Tolerating just a touch of afternoon shade in the hottest of its climate range. Plant in a consistently moist environment with highly enriched, well-draining soil. Provide a thick layer of mulch over the root system to chase away the chill and keep the roots cool in the summer heat, plus regulate soil moisture! Roses do best with regular applications of quality, slow-release Rose fertilizer, and a site enriched with composted manure.

Growing 3-4 feet in height and width, these are fast-growing flowering ornamentals! Roses do well with early spring pruning to cut back all the canes to 6-8 inches above the crown, giving you a full shrub of lush new growth each year. Pruning Roses allows for better, bushier growth each year and stimulates new growth.
