Rose bushes are one of the most popular garden shrubs and for a good reason! They offer many benefits that you don't get with other bushes or shrubs. They offer tons of variety in color, shape, and size. There are so many variations you are bound to find one that fits your landscape perfectly. They are extremely versatile; you can use them as a hedge, container plant, bush, cut flower, ground cover, and so many other ways. It is very hard to come across a plant as versatile as a rose bush. Let's not forget roses are just beautiful to look at, they also smell heavenly. Adding a rose bush to your garden instantly adds a wonderful aroma that you will experience during every blooming season.
How to Care for Rose Bushes
Water
Roses like to be watered, especially during the hot and dry summer months. Water your bushes at least twice a week by soaking the entire root zone. Even though your roses love water, do not overwater them. This could result in their roots sitting in standing water. If you overwater them right before winter, you could ruin the plant because their soil will be too soaked in water during their dormancy period. In the fall, reduce the amount of water you give your roses since the weather is cooler.
Fertilizer
Once a month between April and July, you can add a well-balanced fertilizer to your plants. In May and June, you can mix an additional tablespoon of Epsom salt with the fertilizer. The magnesium sulfate in the Epsom salt will help promote new growth.
Mulch
We recommend you use mulch around your roses. This is to encourage healthy growth, conserve water, and reduce stress. Apply a 2 to 4-inch layer of mulch, grass clippings, shredded bark, etc. around the base of the bushes. Be sure to leave about 1 inch of space between the base stem of the plant and the mulch.
Spacing
Spacing depends on what type of rose bush you buy, but for the most part, it is important to plant them far enough apart that they have enough space to properly grow. It is also crucial to your plant's success to only plant in the spring.
Pruning
Maintaining your rose bushes calls for regular pruning. Mostly just deadhead flowers, remove deadwood, and get rid of any diseased parts of your plant. Keep an eye out for diseases or infestations-though roses are hardy plants, they can still rot or get black spots if you don't pay attention to them.
Winterizing Your Rose Bushes
It is important to stop any fertilizing about 6 weeks before the first fall frost but continue to water during any dry fall weather to prepare them for a dry winter. Also, do not prune your bushes in the fall. If you must remove anything, stick to any dead or diseased canes. Be sure to clean up the rose beds to prevent any diseases caused by overwintering. Finally, add mulch or compost around the roses after a couple of frosts but before the ground completely freezes.
