osa Sunshine Orange | Indoor Rose

Place near a sunny window, avoiding intense midday sun that can scorch the

foliage. Keep the compost evenly moist but never waterlogged, and always allow

excess water to drain freely. Normal indoor humidity is fine, though the plant

appreciates fresh air and should be kept away from radiators and draughts.

Feed every two weeks during flowering with a balanced liquid fertiliser to support healthy growth and repeat blooms. Remove faded flowers regularly to encourage new buds and maintain a compact shape. After flowering, allow the plant a short rest by reducing watering slightly.

Once the indoor display has finished, the rose can be gradually acclimatised to

outdoor conditions—start by placing it outside for a few hours a day before

planting it into a patio pot with well-drained loam-based compost. Choose a

sunny, sheltered spot, and continue regular watering and feeding through the warmer months.

After the main flowering period, lightly prune to maintain the plant’s shape

and remove any dead or weak stems. For established plants grown outdoors in

pots, a slightly harder prune in early spring — cutting back the previous

season’s growth by around one-third — will promote dense new growth and better

flowering later in the season. Throughout the growing period, continue to

deadhead spent blooms to keep the plant tidy and encourage repeat flowering.
