watering
Shrub roses require regular watering for healthy growth and abundant flowers. Rose bushes should be watered 1 to 2 inches per week (or approximately 10 gallons of water per bush each week). It's best to water deeply and thoroughly, supplying moisture to the root system. Watering should take place in the morning so the leaves have time to dry before sunset to reduce the risk of disease. During hot, dry periods more frequent watering is necessary.
sunlight
Shrub roses require 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight per day. They are best grown in sunny locations that are protected from strong winds. Rosa 'Paloma Blanca' prefers full sun in the morning and some protection from the hot afternoon sun. If possible, look for an area that is closest to the southeastern facing exposure for optimum growth and flowering. During hot summer days, some shade in the afternoon can help protect the shrub rose from sun damage.
pruning
Shrub rose (Rosa 'Paloma Blanca') should be pruned in late winter or early spring, before new growth begins. Pruning should involve removing up to 1-third of the oldest and tallest canes each year to encourage more compact growth and increase bud-set. Generally, no pruning is necessary beyond removing dead or damaged canes. Repeat-flowering rose cultivars like 'Paloma Blanca' respond best to more frequent light pruning throughout the growing season to promote additional blooms.
