Top Cream™ Rose Shrub in Fiber Pot

1. Planting: Choose a sunny spot in your garden with well-draining soil. These roses thrive with at least 6 hours of sunlight per day. For best results, plant in your garden from January through March. These roses arrive dormant in biodegradable Fiber Pots, which can be planted directly into the soil.

Dig a hole twice as wide and just as deep as the pot. Place the rose (fiber pot and all) into the hole and backfill with soil, ensuring the base of the plant is level with the ground. Water immediately after planting to help the roots establish.

2. Watering: Water deeply once or twice a week, depending on weather conditions. Ensure the soil is moist but not waterlogged. During hot, dry periods, increase watering frequency. Water at the base of the plant to keep the foliage dry and prevent disease.

3. Fertilizing: Fertilize in early spring as new growth begins, and again after the first bloom cycle. Apply a balanced rose fertilizer according to the package instructions, spreading it evenly around the base of the plant and watering it in well.

4. Pruning: Prune your Top Cream™ Rose Shrubs in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove any dead, damaged, or diseased wood.
