Care Instructions
Planting:
Choose a sunny spot with well-drained soil for planting. Space the roses about 2 feet apart to allow for proper air circulation. When planting in containers, ensure the pot has good drainage holes.
Watering:
Water deeply at the base of the plant when the soil feels dry about 2 inches down. Ensure the soil is moist, but not soggy, to prevent root rot. Watering early in the morning is best to avoid fungal diseases.
Pruning:
Prune dead or spent blooms to encourage new growth and maintain a tidy appearance. For best results, prune back to a healthy bud in late winter or early spring to shape the plant and remove any dead wood.
Pest Control:
Keep an eye out for common rose pests such as aphids, spider mites, and black spot disease. Use organic insecticidal soap or neem oil to treat infestations, and regularly check for signs of mildew or rust.
Soil Tips:
The Weeks Love Rose thrives in slightly acidic, well-draining soil. A mix of compost and sandy loam works well. Ensure good drainage to avoid waterlogged roots, which can lead to root rot or other issues.
