Planting & Care
1. Planting: Plant or repot within 4 weeks of arrival. Choose a location with well-drained soil and full sun for at least 6 hours per day. Dig a hole twice the width of the root ball and just as deep. Backfill with native soil mixed with compost to provide nutrients, ensuring the top of the root ball is level with the surrounding soil. Spread a 2–3 inch layer of mulch extending 3 feet around the shrub to conserve moisture, insulate roots, and suppress weeds. Water thoroughly after planting.
2. Watering: Water every 2–3 days for the first two weeks. After that, water 1–2 times per week, or whenever the top 2 inches of soil are dry. Once established, aim for one deep watering per week, increasing frequency during hot or dry conditions to prevent drought stress.
3. Pruning: Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove dead or damaged branches and shape the bush to maintain an open center and promote air circulation. Limit pruning to about one-third of the plant to avoid stress.
4. Fertilizing: In early spring, apply Espoma Rose-tone® or a slow-release fertilizer formulated for roses. A second application can be made in early summer. Do not fertilize after mid-summer.
