The snowball rose bush looks very tired, I hope to revive it, whereas the Dr. Jasmin rose bush is very beautiful. I am disappointed, the first orders were very good.

Planting and care

To install your potted rose, work the soil to a depth of 25cm (9.8in), crumbling the soil and adding a base amendment such as dried blood or dehydrated horn at the bottom of the planting hole. Position your plant, free from its pot, covering the top of the root ball with 3cm (1.2in) of soil. Fill in the hole and water generously to eliminate air pockets. During dry weather, it is necessary to water regularly for a few weeks to facilitate root growth. Also, remember to provide your rose with special rose fertilizer that stimulates flowering.

Roses are often spotted or unsightly at the end of summer, but this is not a problem for their development. These spots are not harmful to the rose; it is a natural phenomenon.

Care

Pruning instructions Taillez en fin d’hiver. Supprimez le bois mort, les rameaux faibles ou mal orientés, puis raccourcissez les tiges principales d’un tiers environ, en coupant toujours juste au-dessus d’un bourgeon orienté vers l’extérieur. Une taille modérée suffit pour ce rosier Bourbon, qui réagit bien sans intervention sévère.
