Planting & Care

Plant your Sunblaze® Watermelon Rose in well-draining potting soil in a container at least 10 inches in diameter, or directly into garden beds spaced 12 inches apart. Position it in a location receiving full sun and water when the top inch of soil feels dry. During the active growing season, apply a balanced rose fertilizer (NPK ratio around 1-4-3) monthly to fuel continuous flowering. Pinch back faded blooms and lightly trim wayward stems to maintain a neat, compact shape. In colder climates, move container-grown plants indoors before the first frost and provide bright indirect light through winter.
