How To Care Rose Plant In Pot. If you are going to plant your rose into a pot rather than planting out in the garden we recommend the container be at least 18 in depth. Clean the rose container out well.
You can also use a water soluble fertilizer and add this to the roses water once every two weeks. If the plants roots are tightly bound use a sharp knife to score the sides of the root ball and try to loosen the roots.
