Pretty Polly® White Rose Care
Pretty Polly® White Rose requires full sun. Plant it in a location that gets a minimum of 6 hours of sunlight daily. The soil should be moist and well draining, ranging between sandy or clay loams. Water once a week or when the top few inches of soil are dry; an average of 1 inch of water per week is ideal. Feed Pretty Polly® White Rose during the growing season using a rose fertilizer about every three months.
Early spring pruning will encourage strong summer growth. Pretty Polly® White Rose should be pruned to maintain shape, and to prevent pests and disease. First you should remove any damaged or dead branches, and then remove up to a half of the branch structure. Throughout the summer, maintain a clean look and encourage reblooming by removing spent flowers.

?
"Blooms on" tells you which stems produce flowers, which decides when it's safe to prune.
- New Wood: Flowers form on stems that grow this season. Prune in late winter or early spring without losing blooms.
- Old Wood: Flower buds form on last year's stems. Prune right after flowering. Pruning in fall or early spring removes next year's blooms.
- Both New and Old Wood: Blooms on last year's stems and again on new growth, so it flowers even after a hard winter or a mistimed pruning. Prune lightly after the first flush of blooms.
- When to Prune
- Late winter to early spring, before new growth starts
