Water: Roses 'Dupontii' thrives in well-drained, moist soil. Water when the surface is slightly dry, avoiding overwatering or leaf splashing. During growth, water every 2 days; increase frequency in drought. Reduce watering in winter dormancy. Ensure drainage to prevent root rot.

Fertilize: Roses 'Dupontii' requires fertile soil and benefits from regular fertilization during the growing season—liquid fertilizer twice monthly and slow-release every two months. For fresh-cut flowers, fertilize weekly. Mycorrhizal fungi can enhance nutrient absorption. Trim weak branches to focus nutrient distribution on healthier growth.

Pruning: Roses 'Dupontii' grows vigorously but requires timely pruning to prevent pest and disease issues, especially in humid, poorly ventilated environments. Prune after blooming by removing faded flowers and thinning branches. For vines, maintain 2-3 m length; for bush types, prune to 1/3 height, leaving 4-6 sturdy branches.

Propagation: Roses 'Dupontii' propagates through grafting, division, and cutting. Grafting is best done late summer to autumn, while division occurs in early spring or late autumn. Cuttings should be taken in spring or autumn, using a suitable substrate, with a successful rooting rate of 70-80% when conditions are optimal.
