Add peat moss and 3 cups of Rose-tone® to the soil removed and mix thoroughly. Use this mixture to partially refill hole. Make a cone of soil to place plant on. Spread roots evenly. Planting depth should be such that the graft knuckle is just below ground level.  Add 4 to 5 inches of soil and firm around roots. Fill hole to within 2 to 3 inches of top, fill with water and let it soak in. Finish filling hole.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cu\u003ePotted Plants\u003c\/u\u003e:\u003cbr\u003e Some pre-packaged roses should be planted in their original container. Follow instructions on container to determine if the plant should be removed or planted with the container.  Follow directions for 'Bare Root Plants' for general planting procedures and hole size. Instead of making a cone to place the roots on, fill the hole with enough soil so that when the container is placed in it its soil level is the same as the surrounding area. Place plant in hole and refill as outlined above.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003cb\u003eEstablished Plants\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e:\u003cbr\u003e Feed monthly from beginning of season to middle of September.\u003cbr\u003e Keep plants mulched and watered.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cu\u003eIndividual Plants\u003c\/u\u003e: Apply approximately 1¼ cup of Rose-tone® around each plant and scratch into the top inch of soil.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cu\u003eRose Beds\u003c\/u\u003e: Spread 6 pounds of Rose-tone® per 100 square feet of bed area and scratch into the top inch of soil.\u003c\/p\u003e   \u003c!-- PROP65-WARNING START v1 --\u003e \u003cdiv role=\"note\" aria-label=\"California Proposition 65 Warning\" style=\"margin-top: 1rem; border:1px solid #e0e0e0;padding:12px;border-radius:6px;display:flex;gap:10px;align-items:flex-start;font:14px\/1.4 system-ui,-apple-system,Segoe UI,Roboto,Arial,sans-serif;\"\u003e \u003csvg aria-hidden=\"true\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" width=\"20\" height=\"20\" style=\"flex:0 0 20px;\"\u003e \u003cpath d=\"M1 21h22L12 2 1 21z\" fill=\"#FFC107\"\u003e\u003c\/path\u003e \u003cpath d=\"M13 16h-2v2h2v-2zm0-6h-2v5h2V10z\" fill=\"#000\"\u003e\u003c\/path\u003e \u003c\/svg\u003e \u003cp style=\"margin:0;\"\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eWARNING:\u003c\/strong\u003e This product can expose you to chemicals that are known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.
