Roses prefer well-aerated and well-drained soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH, ideally between 5.5 and 6.5.It is not recommended to plant roses in areas with a
high groundwater level. The groundwater should be at least
1.5 meters (approximately 5 feet) below the surface.
Before planting, the site must be properly prepared:- For medium loamy soil: loosening with a garden fork is sufficient.
- For heavy clay soil: dig to a depth of 30−40 cm (12−16 inches).
- Remove all weeds and leftover root debris.
Important:Fertilizers should ideally be added in
advance — at the end of summer
or 2−3 months before planting.If you are preparing the soil immediately before planting, it is best to
avoid fertilizing, as this may harm the young roots.
