Growing Instructions
Select a well-drained location away from trees and hedges where there is sun at least half the day. Prepare the site by digging a hole 12-15" deep and about the same depth. If available, add 6-8" of compost, manure or top soil. Remove package and soak the bush in water for about an hour. Prune the canes back to about 1" above the bud union. Spread the roots out evenly into the prepared hole. Plant at a depth where the bud union (place where the branches come together) will be about 1" above the soil level after back filling the hole. It is best to mound soil or mulch over the bud union until the danger of frost has passed, removing it once new growth is observed. Soak soil weekly until established during periods of drought. Once leaves start to emerge, fertilize with a season-long, balanced fertilizer.
Care Tip
Best to plant immediately upon arrival. Pruning an inch or so off the canes will help send a message to the rose that it is time to start growing once again.
