After
unpacking roses SOAK THE ROOTS IN WATER OVERNIGHT
Dig a large enough hole to accommodate the roots, hold the rose upright
in the middle of the hole and spread the removed soil over the roots. When
the hole is half filled, tread lightly to firm the soil over the roots.
Completely fill the hole and tread the soil again to ensure that the rose
will not rock side to side. Make certain that the point where the green
stems emerge from the brown root stock is covered with soil.
Fertiliser can now be spread a hand's span away from the rose. Work
into soil. NEVER
put fertiliser or manure in the hole when planting a rose as it will burn
the roots. WATER regularly until rose is established. |
