Planting & Care

Where to Plant

  • Sunlight: For the best flower production and disease resistance, provide at least six hours of direct sunlight daily. While Chi™ can handle light afternoon shade in hotter climates, you will see fewer of those deep red blooms and potentially more leggy growth if it sits in too much shade.
  • Soil: These roses prefer rich, well-draining soil that feels like a wrung-out sponge. If you have heavy clay that stays soggy, plant your rose in a raised mound or add organic compost to the planting hole to improve drainage and prevent root rot.

Watering Requirements

During the first growing season, water your Chi™ rose deeply two to three times per week to help the roots dive deep into the soil. Once established, this variety is quite resilient, but inconsistent watering can lead to smaller flowers and scorched leaf edges. Aim for deep, infrequent soakings at the base of the plant rather than light daily sprinkles to encourage a hardy root system.

Pruning Tips

This rose blooms on new wood, so the best time to prune is in late winter or very early spring before new growth starts. Think of it like a seasonal refresh: cut the stems back by about one third and remove any thin, spindly "spaghetti" branches to redirect the plant's energy into strong, flowering canes. This timing ensures you don't cut off any developing flower buds and keeps the shrub's shape tidy and compact.

Fertilizer Needs

Apply a balanced, slow-release rose fertilizer in early spring as the first leaves begin to unfurl. Avoid using high-nitrogen fertilizers late in the summer because this encourages tender new growth that can be easily killed by the first frost. A second light feeding after the first big flush of blooms will provide the nutrients needed for a strong repeat performance throughout the season.

How to Use Easy Elegance® Chi™ Rose in the Landscape

Take time to adorn your environment with its beauty and you'll be rewarded with a welcome feeling of abundance and joy. Plant a Rose hedge in the ground, or keep it in large outdoor containers to decorate your small space garden. You'll want to show these clear red blooms off.

Even if you have a tiny or rented property, create a moment of bliss with a single Chi™ Shrub Rose as a "Thriller" in an outdoor planter! The flower power starts in early summer and continues in flushes through the first frost of fall.

On a larger lot, create mass plantings to bring color and structure. Harmonize them in high-profile areas near your outdoor seating or by your front steps. Chi™ Roses bring a confident look to mature foundation plantings, as well! Expand the mulched bed to align them in front of existing evergreen shrubs. They work beautifully in front of "leggy" shrubs that need a facer plant. Cultivate a polished presentation with their abundant flower clusters and pristine foliage.

Connect a row of Chi™ Landscaping Shrub Roses by planting two feet apart on center, measuring from the center of one to the center of the next. For faster results, add a second row staggered behind the first. Commercial property owners should take note. This beautiful Rose brings happiness and helps advertise your good taste.

Butterflies love Chi™ Roses, too! Include these throughout your mixed borders and Butterfly Gardens. Even a single plant becomes a wonderful focal point. Mindfully notice it every day and you'll be rewarded with a resilient sense of satisfaction.

#ProPlantTips for Care

Plant easy-care Chi™ Roses where they'll get plenty of air circulation and sunshine. Morning sun is best, and they'll need at least six or more hours of full sun a day. Give them well-drained soil that doesn't stay soggy after a rainfall. Add additional soil three feet wide by 18 inches high to elevate your Chi™ if you need to improve drainage. Schedule a moderate amount of water for your Roses. Try to water at the base of the plant, rather than wet the foliage and spread a 3-4 inch layer of mulch to help reduce dirt splashing onto the leaves. This helps reduce the spread of disease and keeps your foliage clean.

Order Nature Hills Root Booster to help your long-lived Roses access micronutrients. This time-tested formula contains mycorrhizal fungus to create a symbiotic relationship with tiny feeder roots and never wears out.

In early spring and mid-summer, apply a slow-release fertilizer for flowering plants. Follow the application rates on the label, please. In late fall, rake and bag all leaf litter from underneath the plant. Prune them down to eight inches in early spring just as they start to wake back up.
