Before you plant - Ensure that your roses will be in an optimum location where they will receive at least six hours of direct sunlight per day, preferably morning sunshine.
Provide your roses with ample space to grow by digging a hole that is at least two feet wide and two feet deep. Add potting soil or organic compost for nutrients. Keep
your roses moist by watering diligently for several weeks once you have planted them.
Help your rose garden to flourish
by monitor the pH levels in the soil as roses generally prosper at a pH
above 5.5. Fertilize in the spring when roses begin to leaf out and continue regularly until just before the arrival of winter frosts.
Don't forget to remove dead flower heads occasionally to instigate new bloom growth.

You also have to prune your roses at least once
a year. With new plants, prune after the first blooming period is over,
but for older plants, pruning after the winter will help to begin rejuvenation and new growth. In colder climates you may also want to prune just after the first frosts to prevent harsh winter damage.
Remember - Roses love plenty of water and proper drainage!
