Water:
Hybrid tea rose 'Candy Stripe' prefers moist, well-drained soil without water-logging. Water when the surface is dry, especially during droughts. Prevent splashing on leaves. Water potted hybrid tea rose 'Candy Stripe' every 2 days in the growing season, reducing frequency in winter. Ensure good drainage to avoid root rot.
Fertilize:
Hybrid tea rose 'Candy Stripe' thrives in fertile soil and benefits from multiple small fertilizer applications during the growing season—liquid fertilizer biweekly in spring and summer, and slow-release fertilizer bi-monthly. For fresh-cut flowers, fertilize weekly, prune weaker branches, and consider adding Mycorrhizal fungi to enhance nutrient absorption.
Pruning:
Hybrid tea rose 'Candy Stripe' exhibits robust growth and requires timely pruning to prevent diseases and pests. Trim faded flowers and thin branches after blooming, and during winter, prune carefully. For vines, maintain branches at 2-3 m; for bush plants, reduce height to 1/3 and retain 4-6 thick branches.
Propagation:
Hybrid tea rose 'Candy Stripe' can be propagated via grafting, division, or cuttings. Grafting occurs late summer to early autumn, requiring a T-shaped cut. Division involves planting stem segments in spring or autumn. Cutting propagation uses 3-4 bud branches in a suitable substrate, with roots forming in 20-30 days.
