Planting: The best time to plant roses is in spring, after the last frost. When planting, dig a hole twice as wide and as deep as the root ball. Add a little compost to the bottom of the hole and spread the roots into the hole. Fill the hole with soil, making sure to plant the rose at the same depth it was growing in its container. Firm the soil around the rose and water it thoroughly. It is also important to add a layer of mulch around the base of the rose to help retain moisture and suppress weeds.
Watering: Roses should be kept constantly moist, but not waterlogged. A good rule of thumb is to water deeply once a week, or more often during hot weather. Be sure to keep an eye on soil moisture and adjust watering accordingly. Water the roses in the morning, this way the leaves will have time to dry before evening and prevents diseases.
