Rose Bush Gift - Carbeth Plants

The best time to plant is typically in autumn or early spring when the weather is cooler and the plant can establish its roots before the heat of summer or the cold of winter.

Ensure the plant receives adequate sunlight (at least 6 hours per day), water, and nutrients. Pruning at the correct time of year also influences flowering. It may take a season to establish and bloom fully after planting.

This could be due to overwatering, underwatering, or a fungal disease like black spot. Check soil moisture and adjust watering. If disease is suspected, remove affected leaves and consider a suitable fungicide.

Ensure the plant is in a sunny spot and has been adequately fed. The initial pruning is designed to promote bushiness; future pruning will help maintain this. Check for pests that might be weakening the plant.
