Don Juan Climbing Rose Care
This stunner needs full sun to thrive, so select a sunny area to plant it. The soil must be rich and moist and allow excess water to drain. The Don Juan Climbing Rose has average water needs, but be prepared to increase the water during a dry spell. Use a fertilizer for roses or a product with a 4-6-4 ratio to encourage plenty of blooms. Fertilize every four weeks starting in the spring.
Prune the Don Juan Climbing Rose to encourage new growth and keep this plant looking its best. Remove dead or damaged growth at any time, but prune the plant to shape and promote new growth in the spring after the first round of blooms fade. Prune canes that cross or rub together. Cut back small canes to direct energy into established vines for more vigorous growth and length.
Don Juan Climbing Rose Spacing
As a climbing rose, this plant will reach about 12 to 14 feet long. Space Don Juan Climbing Roses about 6 feet apart so the plants can spread out but still create a dense and full look.
