Enhance your landscape
by adding beautiful, fragrant roses. You
may choose from all varieties:
Floribunda
– means “flowering in abundance.”
Blooms in clusters throughout the season.
Hybrid Tea –
large flowers with high-painted bud. Repeat
bloomer. One flower per stem (excellent
for cutting). Upright shrub.
Grandiflora
– blooms in clusters. Smaller than
Hybrid Tea, a cross between Floribunda and
Hybrid Tea.
Miniature
– miniature blooms, excellent for
pots.
Climbing
– vigorous and easy to grow. Can train
to climb fences, trellises, and arbors.
Shrub
– Profusely blooming, long blooming
season.
Tips for success:
- Roses need 5-6 hours
of sun per day.
- Do not plant near
large trees or shrubs.
- Avoid planting below
eaves and gutters.
- Fertilize regularly:
Feed roses when bush first leafs out.
Stop feeding two months before first frost.
- Mulch generously: Organic
mulch is best. Apply 2-4” over bed,
leaving space around the base of each
rose.
- Water adequately: Water
slowly a few times a week until thoroughly
soaked, 12-18” deep.
- Prevent pests.
- Prune.
