Music Box Rose Care
This robust bloomer needs full sun and rich, moist, well-drained soil. Roses prefer slightly acidic soil. Water new plants consistently for the first growing season. Established plants need a drink every two weeks or more often during a dry spell. Feed monthly during the growing season using a balanced fertilizer or a product formulated for roses.
Trim the shrub to maintain a good shape and promote more growth. Prune the rose during early or mid-spring to encourage more dense branching and blooms.

The Music Box Rose has a full form and reaches 3 to 6 feet tall and 3 to 5 feet wide. Leave 5 feet of space between plants so air can flow around the foliage.
