watering
Water your Grandiflora rose once a week, providing enough water to make the soil moist but not overly saturated. During the warm summer months when the plant is actively growing, increase watering slightly to 1.5 -2 times per week. When the plant is in full bloom, you can even increase the amount of water to suit its needs. Make sure to check the soil moisture levels before and after watering to ensure your rose is getting just the right amount of hydration.
sunlight
The grandiflora rose (Rosa 'Wekisoblip' WILD BLUE YONDER) thrives in full sunlight, which means at least 6 hours of direct sunlight a day. For plants grown near the equator, as these roses will likely be, that means exposing the leaves and flowers to the direct sun’s rays during the brightest parts of the day, typically early to mid-morning and late afternoon. This type of rose does not do well in partial shade or shade, so during the summer months, be sure to provide it with at least 6 hours of direct sunshine daily.
pruning
Grandiflora roses should be pruned in early spring, before their new growth begins. Pruning should begin just after the last frost of the season, when the weather begins to warm. To start, remove any dead, diseased, or damaged canes. Prune any canes that are growing out of the center of the bush, as well as canes that are too long. If the plant is growing in a particular direction, prune off a few of the longest canes to encourage a bushy growth pattern. After all of the dead, damaged, and long canes have been removed, you can trim back the remaining canes to a desired height. Remove up to 1-third of the total canes, but be sure to leave some of the oldest canes intact, as these will help the rose bush grow new flowers. Finally, lightly prune the remaining canes back to a 45-degree angle. With the Grandiflora rose, the goal is to achieve a balanced look without compromising the growth or beauty of the plant.
