Generally, you'll want 6 hours of direct sunlight a day with some afternoon shade. If you have clay or sandy soil, work well-rotted manure or compost into the planting site. Dig a hole twice as wide and twice as deep as the root ball. Mix the manure or compost with the soil you have removed. Backfill the soil until you have a hole the same size or slightly larger than the container the rose is in. Plant the rose at the same depth as it is in the container. Finally, mulch around the base of the tree to keep competing weeds and grasses from growing. 2. Watering: Water around the roots rather than overhead. And if you're not sure when to water, simply check the surrounding soil about 2 or 3 inches down. If the soil is dry here, it's time to water. 3. Fertilizing: Fertilize with an organic rose fertilizer once a month. 4. Pruning: Avoid pruning in the first 2 to 3 years. When you do prune, sterilize your sharp pruning shears and prune it back a little in the spring after the last hard freeze. Remove dead or old canes at any time. Also, cut very thin canes that might be coming up from the ground. Prune your mature plants by using the 1/3 rule each year in the spring. Remove 1/3 of the oldest canes and any stems that are damaged, diseased or dead.
