Well, since I don't know what kind of rose you planted and how big the pot then I will just assert that you will need to keep it outside in full sun (no less than 6 hours of sun) and make sure you water when the soil gets dry. Actually, I'd like to mention that a rose bush, whether traditional or miniature need very large containers to do well. At least 25 liters because they need room for their roots to grow. Roses hate to be root bound and will become so if planted in a container that is too small. The same is true for the miniature because the bush actually grows as large as 4ft or more. Miniature, refers to the size of the flower and not the plant. Potted roses can be kept outside year round and will go dormant during the winter month. You will also need to prune your rose to help it bush out and to get rid of dead or dying canes.



Tips on pruning:

General Pruning:

You do this to remove any dead or dying canes or spent flowers. You need to pick a set of five leaves, but not necessarily the first set. Pick a set of five that are pointing outward because that will be the direction of a new cane and flowers. If you choose one pointing inward then your canes can cross and will cause other problems. Cut the cane at an angle like this (/) about 1/4" above the five leaf set. It is okay to do this with each cane and especially if the cane is dying. It is also okay to do this throughout the growing season because it promotes new growth. Also, it is important to seal any pruned cane the size of a pencil or larger with white glue to protect the wound and promote faster healing.



Autumn Pruning:

Any time between the first freeze of Autumn and the last freeze of winter you can seriously prune your rose down to about 2 feet. This will create a fuller, lusher plant for the new season. Once again you will want to cut at an angle. However, instead of cutting above a five leaf set, this time you will want to cut right above a node which will resemble a small, reddish, slightly pointed bump on the cane. Like the five leaf set, make sure the node is pointing outward.

Reply:make sure they get enuff sun light i guess
Reply:plant it in the ground....if at all possible. if not get a bigger pot than the one the rose came in. make sure it has a hole in the bottom so the water can run out. use good soil like the kind you buy at wal- mart. get rose dirt. then plant it in the pot and water the roots only when you water. you can use the ferterlizer that you mix with water. Use it every time you water. do not overwater.

good luck
