Europeana® Rose grows best in well-draining, rich loam soil with plenty of organic matter added such as garden compost to improve soil texture and add valuable nutrients. Adding a light layer of natural mulch will help maintain soil moisture and insulate the roots. Europeana® Rose likes a soil pH range from 5.5 to 7.5. Water the soil, focusing water on the root zone. Avoid overhead watering, which can splash the foliage and foster fungal issues. rTo encourage good root development in young, newly planted roses, add a slow-release fertilizer that has higher amounts of phosphorus. Take a visual assessment of more mature plants throughout the growing season; if necessary, apply a bloom-boosting fertilizer early in the season that is specifically formulated for roses and bud production. Prune if you notice old, damaged, or dead wood, and remove interior canes to increase airflow, sunlight, and blooming. This clean-up will rejuvenate new growth and increase flower production, and can be done in very early spring. rEuropeana® Rose SpacingrPlant this rose individually to enjoy as a specimen in a cottage, mixed border, or a rock garden.
