#ProPlantTips for Care:
Rose bushes need full sun and good air circulation to do their best! Provide a location with the morning sun to dry their leaves and prevent water from the hose and sprinklers from wetting their leaves. Plant in enriched, highly organic and fertile soil that is well-drained - never soggy. Water regularly, especially throughout the hot summer months.
- Full Sun
- Moist Enriched Well-Drained Soil
- Regular Fertility & Watering
- Prune Early Spring
- Mulch Very Well

Rose Bush FAQs
Where Is The Best Place To Plant Rose Bushes?
Roses need the full sun and morning sun; flowering 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.
