Tender Roses: Patio

Generally, a patio rose is a cross between a dwarf floribunda and a miniature rose, resulting in a compact rose bush. The smaller size of patio rose bushes makes them ideal low maintenance plants, great for smaller gardens and perfect for container growing. It's best to choose a sunny spot that will provide your rose with some shelter from the wind. When watering your roses, it's best to water the base of the plant only, and try to avoid getting water on the leaves, as this will encourage leaf scorch and disease. It's also a good idea to deadhead this plant as it will help your rose to redirect its energy into making new flowers. Cut the entire stem including the dead rose away, cutting just before the second or third leaf down.
