Maintenance Notes: This easy-care rose defies conventional expectations of what a rose needs to thrive in your landscape. To keep it looking great, simply prune back by at least one third its total height each early spring, just as the new buds begin to emerge on the stems. Make your cut just above a thick, healthy bud, as these produce the most vigorous growth. It can also be fertilized at this time with a granular rose fertilizer. The plant may be deadheaded if desired, but this is not required for continuous bloom.

Seasonal Dormancy Notice: Our nursery is located in the mountains of western Virginia, where cool autumn temperatures arrive early. Depending on the variety and time of shipment, your shrub may already have begun entering its natural winter dormancy.
You may see yellowing or browning leaves, leaf drop, or partially or completely bare stems. This is normal seasonal behavior and does not indicate that the plant is unhealthy. Your shrub should break dormancy and produce fresh new growth when temperatures warm in spring.
