When many people make the decision to plant rose bushes they often don’t realize that there is more to growing rose bushes than simply planting and watering them. Feeding roses is an essential part of caring for them, and unless you are feeding them the right food at the right times your rose bushes won’t thrive. Roses need a combination of things in order to be healthy, and those include water, sunlight, pruning, and food. Far too many people don’t take the time to learn about feeding roses and as a result they are often left frustrated by their inability to succeed and reach their goals as a gardener. What you need to realize is that most soil that you will be using for planting will be severely lacking in nutrients. Without these nutrients plants can’t get what they need to survive, which means that feeding roses is a necessity.

When it comes to feeding roses the good news is that it’s not a complicated process. All that you need is some type of plant food from a local garden center. You can use the kind that you put directly into the soil, or if you prefer it you can use the kind that attaches to a water hose and you spray out on your garden. In either case simply feeding roses once a month is all that you really need to do if you want them to get the proper nutrition. That’s right, one time a month and about 15 minutes of your time is all it’s going to take to feed your rose bushes and help to keep them strong and blooming throughout the summer. Not many people understand the importance of feeding roses, but now that you do you should be able to figure out what to feed them and also to schedule the time to feed them. Roses are beautiful addition to any garden, and many people enjoy their beauty and fragrance. If you want a garden full of healthy rose bushes then feeding roses should be at the top of your list of gardening priorities.
