Growing and Maintenance Tips:


Roses grow best in a moist, slightly acidic, well-drained soil, in full sun. Deadheading will promote further flowering and it is best to avoid watering or wetting the leaves when they are exposed to the sun. The Aurora Borealis® rose requires watering during dry spells. Plants don’t need to be covered during winter nor do they need to be sprayed for black spot disease. Any necessary pruning should be done in the early spring or fall.
