When you buy the new potted rose (not with bare root), you should wait for several days before repotting it or planting in your garden as soon as you get it.  Otherwise the rose will be gone after that.  Let’s see what to do when you get the new rose:

1. Leave the rose in the shadow area for a week and cut off all budding and blossom flowers (including 5 leaves under flowers) on the plants.  And water the rose once in the morning.  Water should not touch leaf or flower as the rose will be weak and not durable with disease. 
2. After first 7 days, allow the rose have sun for 1-2 hours and expand for an hour everyday until the rose get sunshine for 6-8 hours per day.  This’ll help the plant recover and be familiar with new environment.

 

3. If there is nothing wrong, the rose should become healthy and have new buds.  At that time, it will be ready to be repotted or moved.
4. Remove the rose from the container. Carefully place in the hole and shovel the extra soil around the new plant.  Refill the hole and make sure the soil settles around the roots of your plant, then finish filling the hole.
