#ProPlantTips for Care:
Give Oso Easy® Roses good air circulation and need well-drained soil that sheds water quickly. Ensure your plant has good air circulation and receives at least 6 hours of direct sun per day. It needs at least 6 hours of direct sun per day. This shrub rose grows best in slightly acidic, well-drained soil. Plant them in a raised bed with proper pH if you have sticky, alkaline soil. Roses appreciate plenty of Rose food to keep them blooming. Give them a slow-release fertilizer in early spring and mid-summer to support all those pretty blooms.
Apply a medium amount of even moisture to keep the soil moist, but not wet. Use a three-inch layer of mulch over the root system to keep it nice and cool. This is especially true of container-grown plants or those in raised beds. Cut down on your maintenance by installing an automatic drip irrigation system. It's easy, and the results are well worth it!
Wait until early spring to prune back last year's growth down to 12 inches. Remove any broken, crossing, or winter-damaged branches. Find more about winterizing, and un-wintering your Roses in our Garden Blog, plus all the tips and tricks you need when pruning your new prize Rose bush!

Rose Bush FAQs
Where Is The Best Place To Plant Rose Bushes?
Rose bushes need a protected location in the full sun, in a location that has access to the drying power of the morning sun, and flower best in at least 6 hours of direct sunlight a day. Choose a location in good, enriched soil that drains well and has good air circulation.
What Is The Best Month to Plant Roses?
You can plant Roses any time if you are able to provide enough consistent moisture and attention. While there is not a specific month that is best, generally because it changes with temperatures, climate, and growing zone. However, the easiest times of the year to get Rose bushes established in your landscape are in spring after the last frost date, and in fall about 4-6 weeks before the first frost.
Do Roses Come Back Every Year?
Rose bushes are deciduous woody perennial shrubs and will return bigger and better each year.
