Water: Rosa nipponensis thrives in moderate moisture and high humidity, requiring watering every 1-2 weeks. As a deciduous plant, it conserves water by shedding leaves during the dormant season, maintaining a balance between dryness and moisture for optimal health.

Fertilize: Rosa nipponensis thrives in fertile soil and benefits from multiple, small fertilizer applications during the growing season. Use liquid fertilizer bi-weekly in spring and summer, and slow-release types every two months. For cut flowers, fertilize weekly, prune weak branches, and apply Mycorrhizal fungi for enhanced nutrient absorption.

Pruning: Rosa nipponensis thrives with strong sprouting and requires timely pruning to prevent pests and diseases in unfavorable conditions. After blooming, remove faded flowers and thin branches. For vines, maintain branches at 2-3 m; bush plants should be pruned to 1/3 of height, retaining 4-6 strong branches.

Propagation: Rosa nipponensis can be propagated via grafting, division, or cutting. Grafting occurs late summer to early autumn, while division is done in early spring or late autumn. Cutting is optimal in spring and autumn, with a substrate mix ensuring successful rooting within 20-30 days, especially using rooting powder.
