Water: Thriving in well-drained soil, miniature rose retains moisture and prefers consistent watering weekly. It shows moderate drought tolerance and benefits from higher humidity levels, making it suitable for indoor ornamental use and enhancing its flowering potential.

Fertilize: Miniature rose thrives in fertile soil and benefits from regular fertilization during the growing season: liquid fertilizer bi-monthly and slow-release fertilizer every two months. For fresh-cut flowers, fertilize 1-2 times weekly, ensuring strong branches are prioritized. Mycorrhizal fungi can enhance nutrient absorption.

Pruning: Miniature rose benefits from regular pruning to improve health and aesthetics. Techniques include deadheading and removing weak stems, ideally done in early spring. This practice promotes airflow, prevents disease, and encourages vigorous growth along with abundant blooming.

Propagation: Miniature rose is propagated by cuttings. Choose a healthy stem, cut at a 45-degree angle, and use rooting hormone. Plant in moist potting mix and maintain high humidity using a plastic cover for optimal root formation.
