Roses Love Water
Give you rose bushes plenty of water. This doesn't mean they like it constantly soggy, but ample water is suggested. Roses like loose soil that drains well. Adjust your watering to add more for sandy soils, and less for clay soil.
You should also water at the base of the plant and avoid getting the leaves wet. Hot humid weather is a breeding ground for rose diseases. Adding water to the leaves during humid weather will help promote disease. Happy gardening! |
