HOW TO PLANT
Find your Location - Roses should be planted in a nutrient rich well-drained soil with at least 6 hours of sun per day.
Plant It - Container grown roses are very easy to plant. Dig a hole 1 1/2 times the size of the container. Remove the rose from the container and gently loosen up the roots at the base. This will give your new rose a great start in its new home. The top of the root ball should be flush with the ground. Fill in the remainder of the hold will soil and cover with at least an inch of mulch.
Water it In - Grab your watering can, hose or even a cup; whatever it takes to start getting some fresh water on your newest addition. Make sure that you thoroughly water at the base of your new Knock Out to ensure it is soaking in. Water weekly to ensure blooming success.
ENJOY - With a little care, your roses will bring you years of enjoyment. Don't forget to stop and smell the roses.
**Growing Tip**
We suggest a very simple soil mix of top soil, composted cow manure and mini pine bark nuggets. This mix will provide a great environment for your new rose to thrive.
