#ProPlantTips for Care:
Hybrid Tea Roses produce the best blooms in full sun, especially in warm climates. Morning sun is wonderful for Roses, as it quickly dries off the dark green foliage. Site selection is actually the most important aspect when choosing where to locate these long-lived shrubs! Don't forget to use Nature Hills Root Booster at the time of planting for life-long support! Roses require a consistent schedule of supplemental moisture and a 3-4 inch thick layer of arborist mulch Growing Hybrid Tea Roses in zones colder than zone 7 should be mounded with 8-12 inches of mulch in late fall for best overwintering.

Rose Bush FAQs
Where Is The Best Place To Plant Rose Bushes?
Rose bushes prefer full sun and favor 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 Rose Bushes Come Back Every Year?
Rose bushes are deciduous woody perennial shrubs and will return bigger and better each year.
