How to Grow
Light: Sun (> 6 hours sun)
Water: Try to keep the soil evenly moist, especially in their first growing season. Never allow the foliage to remain wet into the evening; water early in the day.
Spacing: 4 - 5 ft.
Fertilizing: To keep the flowers coming, feed your roses with a fertilizer blended especially for roses. This can be done after each bloom cycle.
Winterizing: Spread a layer of composted manure, compost, or shredded leaves over the base of the plant in late fall after the ground freezes. Covering these mounds and the lower parts of the bushes with evergreen boughs will add protection. Pull the mounding material away from the stem as new growth emerges in spring. Prune injured branches over when new buds emerge in spring.
Maintenance & pruning: Prune to remove deadwood, to control or direct growth, and to promote flowering. Wait until growth breaks in early spring before pruning. Every 2 or 3 years, remove about one-third of the old branches to stimulate new, fresh growth. There is no need to remove faded flowers because these roses are self-cleaning
Plant spacing is based on the ultimate width of the plants. This figure is normally given as a range; for example, 3-5’. If you live in a cold climate and/or want plants to fill in more quickly, plan to space at the shorter end of the range. If you live in a warm climate, are on a limited budget, or are willing to wait longer for plants to touch, use the higher end of the range. Using the larger number is recommended when calculating distance from a building or structure. There’s really no such thing as "maximum spacing": if you don’t want your plants to touch, you can space them as far apart as you’d like. All plant spacing is calculated on center, or in other words, the centers of the plants are spaced one half of their eventual width apart:
Unless you are planting in a straight line, as you might for hedges or edging, space your plants in a staggered or zig-zag pattern for a more interesting and naturalistic look:
Not sure just how many plants will fit in your garden? Our calculator gives you the exact amount of plants required for your space. Simply update the values and the calculator will re-calculate accordingly. Spacing information can be found in the 'How to Grow' tab on each plant's page.
Love my rose. .almost looks like a pansy with ruffled edges. Great packaging, delivery and product. Thank you
This rose is so pretty that my friend catcalled it.
This plant arrived healthy and full of leaves and buds. It was packaged well and there was no damage to the plant during transit. Some roses I ordered were very tiny and bare. This was a nice surprise. It is doing well in a large pot on my patio.
Product is very healthy. Great size for the pot. Blooms survived the trip. Very satisfied! Will order from this site again.
It was to small plant for the price.
Hello! Thank you for leaving us feedback. We do ship young plants, be we guarantee that our plants are healthy and strong. When transplanting young plants from a nursery pot to a garden, the plant allocates more energy to root development instead of shoot development (above ground). It's important for them to develop a robust root system so they can actually absorb the nutrients and water in the soil around them. Then after their root system is more developed they'll invest in their shoots and flower development. Happy Gardening!
Plant very well packaged and in great shape. A very hardy rose. I planted it in May of this year and it bloomed its heart out. Beautiful petals. Likes full sun and not too much
watering. Will order again.
Good service
This rose arrived in excellent shape, and quickly begun to grow. The blooms are the loveliest shade of yellow and has been blooming since shortly after I planted it
Was much smaller than I expected, slow to start.
Sunorita Rose started blooming right away after being planted. Seems to be a hardy type of rose. However, after blooming seems to take a while before it reblooms.
What flowers go well with sunorita rose bushes?
Roses love full sun so choosing companion plants that grow well in sun is key. Here is our blog post about sun loving plants: https://blog.greatgardenplants.com/12-garden-plants-that-flourish-in-full-sun/
You'll find beautiful plants like shasta daisies and russian sage in that post, both of which would look lovely paired with roses!
The space I have needs plants no more than 3' tall. Can I keep this pruned to that height without hurting it?
Pruning Suñorita® Rose won't hurt the plant and it will have the added benefit of promoting flower production.
Thornless?
No, it is not thornless.
Can you keep the Sunorita Rose trimmed to 3 feet?
Suñorita® Rose will grow to be around 3-4 feet tall. You can prune to remove deadwood, to control or direct growth, and to promote flowering. Wait until growth breaks in early spring before pruning. Every 2 or 3 years, remove about one-third of the old branches to stimulate new, fresh growth.
