Things Required:
• Rosebush
• Soil
• Shears
• Water
• Insecticide
Step 1
Choose a sunny location for your new
rosebush. Six hours of direct sunlight is
needed for the rosebush to grow.
Step 2
Rosebushes need to be planted in soil, and
should be watered daily. Don’t permit the soil
around the rosebush dry out and make sure
that while you are watering you soak the
root area with water.
Step 3
Prune your roses regularly. This process
helps your plant to get rid of dry branches
and twigs. A pruned bush will offer beautiful
roses.
Step 4
To keep aphids and beetles off your
rosebush use the insecticide. Aphids and
beetles will destroy your healthy bush.
Step 5
Protect your bush from the cold winter
months. Adding extra dirt around the bush
can help.
