Care Tips for Sweet Fragrance

Planting: Sweet Fragrance thrives when planted in full sun, so check out our planting blog to make sure you are planting your shrub correctly.

Watering: Sweet Fragrance does best when the soil is kept evenly moist. Be sure to watch our video on watering for the best tips and tricks to keep it hydrated all season long.

Fertilizing: Sweet Fragrance doesn’t require fertilizing, but it will benefit from it. If you want to apply, be sure to use a granular, well balanced, slow-release fertilizer. Apply once in spring when you see green leafy new growth and be sure to follow the directions on the package. To learn more, watch our video on how to fertilize in spring.

Pruning: Easy Elegance® roses require very little pruning to thrive. Once your Sweet Fragrance rose is established, we recommend pruning in early spring to remove any dead, damaged, or crossing stems.
