floribunda rose

For optimal growth, the Disneyland Floribunda Rose (Rosa 'Jacmouse') needs to be watered deeply once per week. The soil should be kept slightly moist, but not wet. If the soil feels dry when your finger is inserted 1-2 inches deep, it’s time to water. Make sure to water early in the morning or late in the evening to prevent rapid evaporation from direct sunlight. As a preventative measure, it's also suggested to use mulch around the base of the plant to help retain moisture.

Floribunda rose (Rosa 'Jacmouse' DISNEYLAND) should receive about 5 to 6 hours of direct sunlight each day. Morning sun is best as it helps to dry the dew on the leaves that may have accumulated overnight. This will help to prevent disease and insect infestation. Moreover, it is important to shield the plants from extreme sunlight and windy conditions in order to prevent foliage burn or other damage. The best time to expose the plants to the sunlight is in the morning and evening, when the sun's intensity is lower than midday and the foliage is still quite wet.

Floribunda roses (Rosa 'Jacmouse' DISNEYLAND) typically require pruning twice a year — once in the early spring and then again in the late summer. In the early spring, when temperatures begin to warm up, prune any dead or diseased canes, cut back old woody canes to 1/3 of their size, and remove any spindly branches. Aim to keep the center of the plant open. In the late summer or early fall, repeat the above steps and remove any stems that produce a small amount of blooms. Prune back stems that are overcrowding other areas of the rose bush as well, in order to promote air circulation. Compact shrub roses will need to be pruned a bit harder than other varieties, cutting down the stems by 1-half to 2-thirds. As a general rule of thumb for all varieties of rose, always cut back stems to an outward facing bud and remove dead canes all the way to the ground. This will ensure the best possible blooming performance and health of the floribunda rose bush.
