Planting instructions

Dig a hole 12-18" deep and equally as wide
Build a mound of soil in the bottom of the hole on which to place the roots
Position the plant atop the mound so that the bud union is above ground level
Fill the hole halfway with soil and firm the soil around the roots
Water, fill the remainder of the hole with soil, then water again

Continuing care

Maintain a consistent watering schedule during the first year; infrequent, long soakings that fully saturate the soil are best
As a rule of thumb, you should not allow the soil or the original root ball to completely dry out
During the first summer, you may need to water as often as every few days in periods of drought and extreme heat
If the soil is dry 2-3" below the surface, it is time to water
Be sure the area around the plant has adequate drainage; if you plant in a container, choose one with drainage holes
Apply a 2-4" layer of mulch around your plant to promote moisture retention, maintain even soil temperatures and discourage weed growth
Keep the area around your plant free of weeds

Training

Climbing roses produce main canes (from the base but above the graft) which form the structure of the plant
Each main cane produces lateral shoots that bear flowers
Because they are not self-clinging, climbing roses should be tied to a support such as a trellis or fence as they grow
Be sure the support you choose is firmly anchored into the ground and sturdy enough to support the weight of a mature plant
As the rose grows, attach its main canes to the support using plant ties or strips of flexible cloth

Pruning

Remove spent flowers as blooms fade to maintain a tidy appearance
In early spring, prune to remove any weak, dead or damaged canes and to improve the shape of the plant
Climbing roses need only minimal pruning when newly planted
In early spring of the second growing season, select 3-4 strong canes to ?climb? and remove the other canes
Keep suckers off the lower part of the plant by clipping off any growth that appears below the graft
Remove any damaged or weak growth at the top as needed
Little pruning is required going forward, though established plants can be pruned heavily in early spring if desired

Feeding instructions

Feed plant once every 2-3 weeks during the growing season with water-soluble fertilizer
Discontinue feeding after September 1st to allow plants to harden off for winter dormancy
Resume fertilizing when new growth appears in spring

Winterizing instructions

Watering thoroughly in late fall will greatly enhance your plant's cold tolerance once the ground has frozen
In extremely cold areas, roses will benefit from a 6-8" mound of mulch to protect the root system from cold damage
Containerized plants should be brought into unheated, protected areas like garages or cellars before temperatures drop below freezing
Check soil moisture every 2-3 weeks and water plants as needed during winter
In spring, remove extra mulch from in-ground plantings, and move containerized plants back outside

Not as shown on TV

The plants shown on TV were big and healthy with big stems. The one I received was small with tiny stems. The plant does not look healthy. It is a bit better than the other one I bought. I would return if it didn't cost so much. so disappointed. I will plant it and hope for the best.
