Water: Originating from arid regions, amur rose exhibits drought tolerance and thrives with minimal moisture. Water every 2-3 weeks, allowing soil to dry between sessions. Resilient in varied climates, amur rose benefits from rain during its active growing season.

Fertilize: For amur rose, apply a balanced fertilizer (10-10-10) every 4-6 weeks during the growing season. Follow manufacturer guidelines to avoid nutrient overload, and reduce application frequency in cooler seasons. Apply carefully, avoiding foliage contact, to promote healthy growth for amur rose.

Pruning: Amur rose thrives with early spring pruning to enhance blooms and overall health. Remove dead wood, thin branches for air circulation, and trim to outward-facing buds. This practice fosters vigorous flowering, reduces disease risk, and maintains an optimal plant shape.

Propagation: Amur rose is a hardy shrub valued for its ornamental appeal. Effective propagation involves non-flowering cuttings treated with rooting hormone, planted in well-draining mix. Maintaining consistent moisture and warmth, away from direct light, fosters growth while careful handling aids successful establishment of traits from the parent plant.
