#ProPlantTips for Care

Grow dashing Don Juan Roses in full sun. He needs at least six hours of sunlight a day to produce your season filled with red blooms.

Give them well-drained soil. Rose roots do not tolerate standing water.

Please install your support structure several inches away from any wall. Roses do best with plenty of air circulation.

Dig your planting hole twice as wide as the roots, but no deeper. Keep the soil level the same as we have grown in at the nursery.

Add Nature Hills Root Booster into the planting hole. The symbiotic ingredients never stop supporting the tiny feeder roots.

Roses need a consistent schedule of water. They also flower best with a schedule of specialty Rose fertilizer.

Keep the roots nice and cool with a three-inch layer of mulch placed over the root zone. Pull it back away from directly touching the canes.

Overwintering Tips For Colder Zones

In late November, carefully take the longer canes down and lay them on the ground. Mulch over the remaining canes to protect them in winter.

Wait until spring to uncover these canes just as the plants start to come out of dormancy. Carefully put them back into place and pull the excess mulch away from the base of the plant.

Wait to remove any broken or diseased branches until early spring. Leave healthy green stems in place for best flowering.
