Planting & Care

Where to Plant

Sunlight: Provide at least six to eight hours of direct sunlight daily for the best flower production. While it can handle a little afternoon shade in very hot climates, less sun usually results in fewer blooms and a higher risk of powdery mildew.
Soil: This rose thrives in rich, well-draining soil that feels like a wrung-out sponge. If you have heavy clay, mix in some organic compost to improve drainage, or if your soil is sandy, add peat moss to help hold moisture near the roots.

Watering Requirements

During the first year, water your rose deeply two to three times a week to help the roots dive deep into the soil. Once established, this variety is surprisingly resilient, but consistent moisture is the secret to those continuous, fragrant blooms. If the soil gets bone dry, the plant may drop its lower leaves or produce smaller flowers as a way to save energy.

Pruning Tips

Since this rose blooms on new wood, you should prune it in early spring just as the leaf buds begin to swell. Think of this like a fresh haircut that clears out the "dead weight" to make room for new growth. Cut the stems back by about one third and remove any thin, spindly canes to ensure the plant directs its energy into strong, flower-bearing branches.

Fertilizer Needs

Apply a balanced rose fertilizer or a slow-release granular bloom booster in early spring and again after the first major flush of flowers. Avoid using high-nitrogen fertilizers late in the summer or fall. This prevents the plant from pushing out soft, tender growth that won't have time to harden off before the first frost hits.

Understanding Our Container Sizes

At Nature Hills, our plants are sold in industry-standard nursery containers. You will notice we use the word "container" rather than "gallon." Container numbers follow a nursery trade size standard, not liquid volume. The number tells you the plant's size category and general maturity level. A larger container means a more established plant with a stronger root system.

Container Sizes

Quart

Plant age: 6 months to 1 year
Best for: Ground covers, perennials, ornamental grasses
What to expect: Our smallest and most affordable size. Well-suited for planting in multiples across a large area. Allow 1 to 2 seasons for full establishment.

#1 Container

Plant age: 1 to 2 years
Best for: Shrubs, perennials, smaller trees
What to expect: About the size of a large coffee can. A well-developed root system in a manageable size. Good value choice when you have time to let the plant grow into the space over a season or two.

#2 Container

Plant age: 2 to 3 years
Best for: Shrubs and trees where you want faster establishment
What to expect: A noticeable step up from a #1 in both plant size and root development. Good choice when you want visible presence without going to a larger size.

#3 Container

Plant age: 3 to 4 years
Best for: Most plants, most situations — flowering trees, shade trees, evergreen shrubs
What to expect: Our most popular size. Strong, developed root system. Plants in a #3 container make an immediate visual impact from day one. If you want a head start rather than waiting seasons for a plant to fill in, this is typically the right choice.

#5 Container and Larger

Plant age: 4 to 5+ years
Best for: Specimen plants, privacy screens, maximum instant impact
What to expect: Large, mature plants ready to make an immediate statement in your landscape. We also carry #7 and larger sizes for select varieties.

Why "Container" and Not "Gallon"?

Nursery container sizes follow an industry trade standard established for the nursery and horticulture industry. The number is a size designation, not a measurement of liquid volume. Actual soil volume varies by plant type, root mass, and growing medium. Using "container" is the accurate industry term. When you see #1, #2, or #3, think of it as the plant's size tier, not a gallon measurement.

Root Pouch Containers

Some Nature Hills plants arrive in a Root Pouch, a breathable fabric container made from 100% recycled materials. Root Pouches encourage denser root development through air pruning, which discourages root circling and promotes a stronger, more fibrous root ball at the time of planting.

There are two types. Knowing which one you have changes how you plant:

Degradable (brown or tan fabric): Plant the entire pouch directly in the ground. The fabric breaks down naturally in the soil over time.
Non-degradable (black or gray fabric): Remove the pouch before planting. Cut the bottom open with scissors, then peel the sides away. The fibrous root ball will hold its shape.

Not sure which type you have? Check the tag on your plant or contact us and we will confirm.

#ProPlantTips for Care:

Provide At Last® Rose all-day sun, if you have it, or at least 6 hours of direct sunshine a day, favoring the drying powers of the morning sun. They'll also do best in well-drained soil. If you have sticky soil that retains water, plant them in a raised bed or container. We always recommend Nature Hills Root Booster when planting to get your Roses off to the best start.

Provide a medium amount of water on a regular basis. A three-inch layer of wood mulch is helpful to keep the root systems nice and cool. Very disease resistant, there should not be a need to spray At Last® Roses. However, you will want to apply an organic, granular, slow-release fertilizer in early spring and mid-summer. Mulch new plantings, and keep them weed-free as the Roses grow together.

Prune in early spring, just as the new buds start to emerge on the stems. You'll trim at least one-third of its total height each early spring. Cut at a 45-degree angle just above a nice new bud.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is mountain rose herbs a good company?

I notice there's a mismatch between your question and the product information provided. You're asking about "Mountain Rose Herbs" (which is a separate herbal products company), but the context is about the At Last® Hybrid Tea Rose from Nature Hills Nursery. Could you clarify if you meant to ask about: 1. Mountain Rose Herbs as a company, or 2. A question about the At Last® Rose product? I'd be happy to write an appropriate FAQ answer once I understand which topic you'd like me to address.

What USDA hardiness zones is the At Last® Hybrid Tea Rose suitable for?

At Last® Hybrid Tea Rose thrives in USDA zones 5-9, making it suitable for most of the United States. This cold hardy and heat tolerant rose performs reliably across diverse climates. Shop at Nature Hills for this proven performer.

What type of soil does the At Last® rose prefer and what pH level is best?

At Last® roses thrive in well-draining soil with a pH between 6.0-7.0. Like most hybrid tea roses, they prefer rich, loamy soil amended with compost or well-rotted manure. Test your soil pH and add lime to raise it or sulfur to lower it as needed before planting.

How often should I water this rose and how much water does it need?

Water At Last® roses deeply once or twice weekly, providing about 1 inch of water each time. Focus watering at the base to keep foliage dry and prevent disease. Water more frequently during hot spells in zones 7-9, and reduce watering as temperatures cool toward first frost.

Is this rose deer resistant or will I need to protect it from deer?

Most roses, including At Last®, are not deer resistant and will likely be browsed by deer if they're present in your area. Deer find rose buds and foliage quite tasty, especially new growth. Consider fencing, deer repellent sprays, or companion planting with deer-resistant perennials available at naturehills.com.

What are the best companion plants to grow alongside this hybrid tea rose?

At Last® Rose's soft coral-to-pink blooms pair beautifully with lavender, catmint, and white flowering perennials like peonies or phlox. The changing apricot-to-pink colors also complement purple clematis or blue delphiniums. Plant companions 2-3 feet away to allow air circulation around your rose.
