watering

Rosa 'Nevada' (Hybrid Moyesii Rose) should be watered about once or twice a week, depending on climate, soil, and weather conditions. During the summer months, they may need more frequent watering due to higher temperatures and decreased rainfall. During the winter, they may require less frequent watering since temperatures are cooler and rainfall is typically greater. Since Rosa 'Nevada' is a hybrid type of rose, soil drainage should be considered for appropriate watering. Soil should be moist but never soggy. A general guideline is to water deeply until the soil is damp all the way to the bottom of the container or pot. Additionally, water should be applied at the roots of the plant to ensure the roots are receiving the water and not the foliage.

sunlight

Hybrid moyesii rose (Rosa 'Nevada') will grow best in a location that receives full sun. The plant should receive at least 6 hours of direct sunlight for optimal growth. However, if the area is hot and dry, give the plant some morning sun and midday shade to help protect it from the heat. This rose bush can tolerate partial shade, but will not flower or look as nice as it would in full sun. Additionally, when planting in a container, it's important to place it in a spot that gets ample sunlight.

pruning

Hybrid Moyesii Roses (Rosa 'Nevada') should be pruned in late winter, approximately 3-4 weeks before the last frost of the season. Pruning should be done to promote healthy growth and prevent crowding at the center of the shrub. When cutting, aim for a cone shape, removing long canes and suckers and cutting back any errant branches. Start by removing dead, diseased and damaged branches, and then reduce the size of all other branches and canes by cutting them back to a length of 1/3 of the original. Finally, cut the remaining canes down to 12-18 inches, leaving only 5-7 of the most vigorous canes to form the center of the shrub. It's best to defer major pruning for Hybrid Moyesii roses to once a year, but it's a good idea to prune out any dead, diseased or damaged branches or canes anytime.
