Plant Care

• Sunlight - Damascus roses prefer full sun, but can tolerate shade.
• Watering - Water Damascus roses regularly, but avoid overwatering. Water more frequently when the plant is budding and flowering, but reduce watering after blooming. After blooming, wait to water again until the soil is almost dry.
• Fertilizer - Apply a balanced fertilizer and mulch in late winter or early spring for best flowering.
• Pruning - Prune lightly immediately after flowering, or early in spring at a depth of 1/4 inch above a bud eye.
• Temperature - A mild temperate climate is best suited for Damascus roses. At the time of flowering, the temperature should be between 25 to 30°C and relative humidity above 60%.
• Propagation - Propagate by budding in late summer, or take hardwood cuttings in autumn and winter.
