watering
Water your hybrid tea rose (Rosa 'Hilaroma' SECRET) deeply every 7-10 days during the growing season. Water at the base of the plant to prevent fungal diseases and minimize moisture on the leaves. During hot, dry spells, you may need to water more frequently. Provide about 1 inch of water when you water. After the rose becomes established, it will only need supplemental water during extended periods of a lack of rain.
sunlight
Hybrid tea rose (Rosa 'Hilaroma' SECRET)require direct sunlight for at least 6 hours a day to thrive. The amount of light these plants need can vary slightly depending on the season. In the spring and summer, they require full sun, which is defined as 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight a day. Then, in the winter they should receive at least 4 to 6 hours of sunlight a day. In all cases, hybrid tea roses should never be placed in an area with too much shade.
pruning
Hybrid tea roses, like Rosa 'Hilaroma' SECRET, should be pruned each spring, once strong new growth has appeared. Begin by removing any dead, diseased or damaged branches. Then remove any remaining canes that are thinner than a pencil and any that are crossing over or rubbing together. Finally, remove any water sprouts or suckers (growth from the roots). Prune the long, strong canes down to a desired length, to encourage dense, bushy growth. For Rosa 'Hilaroma' SECRET, cut the stems back to 18-20 inches. But once again, this isn’t set in stone—the goal is to achieve a pleasing shape and any length that meets the shape goal will work. Finish off the pruning by slightly cutting into the center of the bush to encourage outward rather than upward growth.
