Growing & Maintenance Tips for Rosa x Flavorette Pear'd™
To keep it looking great, prune back by at least one-third its total height each early spring, just as the new buds begin to emerge on the stems. Make your cut just above a thick, healthy bud, as these produce the most vigorous growth. It can also be fertilized at this time with a granular rose fertilizer. The plant may be deadheaded if desired, but this is not required for continuous bloom.
