Plant Care & Growing Tips
Caring for your lemon zest rose live plant is straightforward, thanks to its resilient nature. For optimal growth and prolific blooming, plant your rose in a location that receives full sun, meaning at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day. Adequate sunlight is crucial for flower production and overall plant health. While tolerant of various soil types, this rose thrives in well-draining soil enriched with organic matter. Avoid heavy clay soils that retain too much moisture, as this can lead to root issues. When planting, dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and just as deep, ensuring the top of the root ball is level with the soil surface.
Water regularly, especially during dry spells and in its first year of establishment. Aim for deep watering sessions rather than frequent shallow ones, encouraging roots to grow deeper into the soil. Allow the top few inches of soil to dry out slightly between waterings. Fertilize in early spring with a balanced rose fertilizer and again after the first flush of blooms to encourage continued reblooming. Pruning is minimal; simply remove any dead, damaged, or diseased canes as needed. A light shaping prune can be done in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. This disease resistant rose shrub is generally robust, but monitoring for common rose pests like aphids or spider mites and treating them promptly with organic solutions like neem oil can help maintain its pristine condition. This reblooming yellow rose is hardy and adaptable, making it a joy to grow.
