Most perennial plants can take up to 3 years to become fully established and grown.
Reply:oh, they can still bloom, and hopefully will be lovely. Report It
Reply:Get a soil test done to see what your soil is lacking. Also read the website below to see what might be lacking in their care or where you have them growing.
Reply:The size of the pot they are in will determine how much they are allowed to grow. If you want them bigger repot larger or straight in the ground. There are limits to how big miniature roses wil grow, they are minis after all. Nurseries generally feed more than the home gardener. You can make a weak solution of Miracle Gro (1/4 teaspoon per gallon of water) for use each time you water. good luck
Reply:Tip prune and fertilize every 2 weeks, roses are very hungry feeders
Reply:Are you cutting them back? Have you taken the roots out of the bag? Dig up and replace dirt with a quality topsoil.
