floribunda rose

Floribunda rose (Rosa 'Jactosam' HABITAT FOR HUMANITY) should be watered regularly, weekly. Water the ground thoroughly until you see it at least 8 to 12 inches deep. Make sure to water the roots of the plant, not just the surface of the soil. Additionally, check the moisture levels of the soil using a fingertip test: stick a finger about an inch deep into the soil. If the soil is dry, add water until the soil is moist but not soggy. Plants should be watered more often during hot weather and less in cooler weather.

Floribunda rose (Rosa 'Jactosam' HABITAT FOR HUMANITY) should receive direct sunlight for 6-8 hours during the day. The best time of day for this plant species is in the morning, when the sun is at a lower angle and not as powerful as midday sunlight. If grown indoors it is important to ensure it still gets at least 8 hoursof bright light during the day for optimal health. It should be positioned close to a window that gets plenty of sunshine throughout the day.

For optimal blooms and healthy growth, it is recommended to prune floribunda roses (Rosa 'Jactosam' HABITAT FOR HUMANITY) twice a year. Pruning should be done in early spring, just before buds appear on the stems, and again in late summer (July or August). In early spring, begin by removing any dead, diseased, or damaged wood. Cut down any stems to the desired height (usually 1–3 feet). If there are a lot of canes, cut some of them out completely. Remove all the short, thin, woody canes, and leave only the thick, strong ones. In late summer, after the roses have finished blooming, cut out any dead wood, and trim back some of the canes to encourage a renewed flush of blooms. Cut back up to 1-third of the remaining stems. Make sure to leave at least 2 sets of 5 leaflets on each stem. Also remove any canes that are crossing or rubbing against 1 another. Finally, shape the plant by shortening unruly stems. Following this regular pruning schedule for floribunda roses will help ensure beautiful and long-lasting blooms.
