Mini rose plant care
Miniature rose plant can be grown indoors for a limited time. They need high light and humidity to bloom well. Additional artificial lights and a moist pebble tray will help improve their growing requirements during the winter. They should be kept moist at all times but do not allowed to stand in water; drain any excess water so that roots won’t drown and rot. A cool spot (60-72F) with bright indirect sunlight will encourage reblooming. If the plant is actively growing feed it with a flowering houseplant fertilizer to encourage new blooms. Remove any withered blooms and yellowing leaves.
Maintain your mini rose till spring time (cooler climate areas) then plant it in the ground when all danger of frost has passed. Plant it in a sunny location with at least 1/2 day sun and in well-drained, rich, organic soil. Prune the plant 5 inches from the ground, removing any dead canes and water in thoroughly.

Hi- I have a potted rose plant that I’ve had for about 3 months now, and recently a sticky substance has started appearing on the leaves. I thought it might be mealy bugs, but I can’t find any white stuff, or anything on the stems, but just this sticky clear stuff on the leaves. The plant has been indoors the entire time. What should I do? Thanks!

My boyfriend gave me a Mini rose plant for Valentines Day and I keep outside for about 4 hours so it can get enough sun and I water it every other day. But the buds keep coming off and the ones that bloom fall off after a week.. Today I noticed little green bugs under the leaves and on the flower tips. Are they affecting my plant in anyway?
I’ve checked for both. I can’t find any bugs or discolored spots, on the tops or bottoms of the leaves or on the stems. There’s just all this sticky stuff all over the leaves, particularly on the older growth. The new growth, thankfully, has yet to be touched.

Help!!My miniature rose plant has a white dusty substance on the leaves….almost like a powdery texture. Do you think the plant has mealy bugs or is it some other kind of disease??What can I do to treat my rose plant??

Hi.
What a great site! I have a question. I have a miniature rose bush that is currently planted in a container. I know I need to transplant it, but I’m wondering if it’s too late. I live in Upstate New York. I am assuming it is too late. So, should I bring it inside for the winter? Leave it out? Also, it does have the white powdery substance as described in another post. I’m just stating that in case that helps in deciding a path forward. Please advise, thanks!
My husband gave me a potted rose plant for Mother’s Day. It is trimmed to look like a tree. I have never had a rose bush of any kind… is this a regular bush that has been pruned down, or is it a tree type plant? Does it need to be planted outdoors? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank You!
I’m back again! I’m so excited to be learning about gardening. I’m starting with just one bed, don’t want to overwhelm myself and give up! I have a Miniature Rose bush, Magic Carrousel. Any advice or tips? If the leaves are turning yellowish, does that mean I’ve overwatered? What about deadheading, do I just pinch off the dead blossoms anytime? Also, I know there’s something about using coffee grounds or tea bags for certain plants, what can you tell me about that? My Star Jasmine is growing well, but the leaves are getting yellowish. I thought I needed to water it a lot after repotting it, but I’ve backed off a little. Thank you so much for hosting this site!!
My week-old potted mini rose has lost at least one-third of its leaves – they turned yellow and dropped off. However, no buds have dropped off, yet. I placed it on my office window sill that has a north-west exposure so it gets a fair amount of sunshine even though we are now into fall (I live in Vancouver, British Columbia). Is this due to the stress of relocation? Or would it better for me to take it home and plant it outside – will it survive our winter? Many thanks.

How is the best way to keep your rose for cold weather outside in the ground
I was wondering if anyone knows a good remedy for “thrips”? It’s on my antique farm roses.(What a great site!)
I put my mini rose potted plant in the garage for the winter. It is going dormant. How often do I water it over the winter time?
Hello, I live in E. Washington and am having trouble figuring out what type of roses to plant. Can you help?
Thanks, Glenda
It is winter in Southern NJ. How long will my mini rose bush last until I can plant it outside? Will it do better in my office or at home? I don’t want it to die. Please advise on how I can keep it alive until spring. Thanks!!!!
Mini rose plant care
I have a reoccurring with miniature roses. Anytime from within a few days to a few weeks after I buy one, I notice that a brown spot appears a stem about 2 inches below a blossom; the spot goes all around the stem. After the spot appears, it increases in size and moves up the stem towards the blossom. Eventually the blossom also turns brown, shrivels up, and dies. What is the problem, and how do I prevent and/or stop it? Thanks!
My granddaughter received a miniature rose bush for Valentines. The leaf stems and leaves are drying and falling off. What do I need to do to stop this? Also, we live in the southeast and I’m wondering about planting in full sun or shade this spring? And what type fertilizer should I use on it throughout the year?

I HEARD THAT YOU CAN GET THE BEARDED IRIS TO BLOOM TWICE A YEAR.HOW SO? ALSO, I WANT TO START A ROSE GARDEN,BUT I WANT TO TAKE CUTTING FROM SOME VERY OLD ROSE BUSHES. HOW AND WHERE DO I TAKE THE CUTTINGS AND HOW DO I GET THEM TO ROOT OUT? THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND COMMENTS
I have mini roses planted outside and used a weed free cloth and rocks to keep down weeds. The leaves keep getting black spots and then almost all leaves fall off, but I have some pretty blooms. I have sprayed with a fungicide and fertilized. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
I have a Mini rose plant potted inside that is not doing so well. I know it is best to plant it outside. Unfortunately, I don’t have a place to plant it outside. The bottom leaves are drying out and falling and the buds are not blooming. I was thinking that maybe I could keep it outdoors in a larger pot with better drainage. It is May here in California. When is it a good time to repot my mini roses? and is it a good idea to plant them in a larger pot?
Thank you
Hi, Gr8 site
Hope you can help me. I was out shopping and i found this really good small rose plant in a small pot. Its called Red Sunblaze Rose plant. Its a miniature rose shrub plant. It had many rose flowers and rose buds. After i brought it home, the flowers and the rose buds all fell down on the slightest touch. Now there are no rose buds or bloomed buds on the plant. I have started keeping the pot outside in a sunny area and water it once in 3 days. Also, i now have started noticing that the new buds on branches, not the rose buds, are turning red. Is it normal, or is my plant diseased? I do not want want my plant to die. Please guide me to care for this plant so that it blooms everytime and stays healthy.
I got mini white roses for my birthday on 7/18 but the container is much too small and plant is very crowded. It came with another container from the forist and I was wondering as long as I dont disturb and roots, take it out in one piece and just drop it into the other container and fill with more soil, is this okay? I am keeping it indoors for now, I live in CT.
We live in Birmingham, Alabama. I bought a mini-rose about 3 months ago. It is putting out new leaves but has never had a bud. It is in a clay pot outdoors. We keep it watered and have been using Pennington Rose food 8-12-4.
Hello,
I live in southern Ontario and have purchased a minirose 3 or 4 months ago in the late spring, and it has been doing quite well indoors.
Recently, there seemed to be more tip-curling and drying (and falling) of older leaves than usual. About 1/2-3/4 of the lower leaves are now gone � even some of the good-looking leaves fall at the touch. However, there are still blooms on the plant, but no new growth.
I cannot plant my rose outside (living on university residence), and the lady working at the gardening centre where I got the rose assured me that it is a variety which does not go outside for the winter.
Is it a normal autumn (it is now late August) reaction for leaves to turn yellow and fall, or is something troubling my plant?
Thank you so very much for your help =)
I’ve got a micro and a mini roses, they are in containers. I live in Chicago, and is cold now. I would like to know what should I do with them? I’m still keeping then on my balcony. Some leaves are drying and curling up and some are turning yellow. They don’t have any buds. Can I keep them outside all the winter? what kind I do to protect them of the cold weather.

But, do you think is time now to bring them indoor or I’ve got to wait to end of fall. What can I do with the leaves, they are yellowing and look weak. Some of them fall off to the touch. Should I trim them off, and leave the stems naked?. Can I use a fertilizer in winter or not?
More blooms
I have successfully re-potted my mini rose and it seems to love its new, larger container. I keep it in the sunniest window in the apartment (planting outside is not an option), water it when the soil is dry, trim dried leaves (though there is not much necessity for this, as most of the leaves are lush and green) and give it miracle gro spikes according to the package instructions. All of this seems to be paying off and the rose is growing like crazy! It has put out new growth so quickly I may need to buy another pot and re-pot it again soon! The only problem is, it seems so devoted to growing new stalks and leaves that it is producing far fewer buds than it had when I bought it. It has gone from about 10 buds and flowers at a time, to two. The buds it produces look healthy, but how can I encourage it to make more flowers? Could it be the temperature? I keep the thermostat between 68 and 70, but it is slightly cooler by the window where the rose resides (hard to do anything about that in the winter in Chicago…)
It is almost 1 month after I brought my miniature roses in. They have lost all the leaves and some of the stems are turning brown. I keep them in a bright, cool window in my apartment. Also, I Trimmed the stems up to 1/2 as you recommended me, and I was watering them when top inch is dry. What is wrong with them? I’m afraid they die. Help me please. Thanks a lot.
Hey There!
I purchased 5 Mini Rose Bushes last night at a local grocery store for .99 cents each. I am proud of this, however it leads me to believe I only have a few weeks to care for them before they become “unhappy”. They all look great now. Meanwhile, I plan to plant them outside in the Spring. What is a good month? (I’m in Upstate S.C.) Also, should I leave them in the pots and transition them around the yard to the area where I have decided to plant them or just go for it and plant them? (This is the part I usually mess up and they always seem to die.) I hope I didn’t sound too confusing. Thanks for the advice!

Hi Deb
Hi,
I received two (i believe mini) rose plants for valentines day. I live in Colorado, and thus cannot plant these outside yet (though I do have a sunny spot for them in the yard). I would like to know when I should transition the plants outside, and how I can keep them alive inside until then. I currently have the plants in a sunny room (up high, away from kitty), and am keeping the soil moist with a spray bottle of water. They seem to be doing okay so far, but I have noticed the “leaf drop” described by others. I assumed this was because the plants went from a Home Improvement store to our house and was stressed. Will the leaf drop eventually stop, and how can I prevent this from getting worse? Thanks!!!
Hi,
My mother in law got a mini rose bush for valentines day, but now all the blooms have wilted. I am taking care of it for her because she is short on time and not good with plants. I have never taken care of one before and I don’t know whether to prune the dead buds or even how. The plant is getting watered every day or two and is in a place inside that it can get a little sun every day. When would be a good time to plant it outside? I think the cat that is at her house has been snacking a little on the leaves because some look torn and some what brown around those spots. The leaves look great, but I can’t seem to get the buds their color back. Please explain to me what I should do. I would greatly appreciate it. thank you.
I received a mini rose plant from a person in AL. I am in Hot Hot Texas. Can this plant take the 100 degree heat that we have and can it also take the full sun? Thank you.
I just bought 2 rose bushes in a bag at a wholesale club. I live in South Jersey & the weather here has been strange this year. It is still bouncing between 40 degree days & 70 degree days, but some nights it’s still getting down into the 20’s. I haven’t planted them yet so my husband told me to bring them in the house so they don’t get shocked by the cold & die. Should I be watering them in the house even though they are still in their bags? The plants are packaged by Jackson & Perkins and I got one Sexy Rexy plant & one John F. Kennedy plant. I have never had rose bushes before, so i have no idea how to care for them. This will be a learning experience for me. I plan to plant them this coming weekend, but because the soil here is so sandy, I was going to plant them in HUGE pots so that they are in real soil & see how they do. Is this a mistake? A lot of people are telling me that rose bush roots need to roam & they will not survive even 1 season in a pot. Thank you for any help you can provide!
Hi there,
When I first got my mini rose, it dropped all its leaves and was down to the bare twigs. So I repotted it and moved it to a Western window (E,W and N is all I have) with direct light and placed it on a pebbled tray. It grew all the leaves back but now I have a handful of yellow leaves again. New growth also dies right after sprouting. What am I doing wrong? Thanks!
Hi there! I bought a mini-rose plant about 2 weeks ago. It is potted and the pot does not drain. Some small leaves near the base have turned yellow and the blossoms are withering rapidly. I am going to start putting it outside during the day. I didn’t think I was overwatering it but I wonder if that is the problem. I didn’t want to wait too long to seek answers!
I was also hoping to take it to college with me, but if it’s necessary, I am able to plant it at home. How long might it remain healthy indoors if I repotted it in a larger, drained pot?
Greetings, I am looking for some info on, what I believe is, a mini rose plant, and ran across your site. My husband rescued 5 containers from a work-site dumpster. They were pitiful and very dry. We lined them up and gave all a good watering. One plant had a small flower (which looked like a rose to both of us) on it. My husband trimmed all the brown, dried-out stems off plants and we’ve had them sitting in a very sunny spot. Now they are growing like gang-busters and I don’t know what to do with them. I am in northwest FL, have sandy soil and two black thumbs! ;o) Can you help me or point me in the right direction to find the info I need to keep these beautiful plants growing?
Thank you very much,
Tracy J.
Hello, I have a mini rose, but I haven’t been taking good care of it really, I’ve had it since Feb, and my roommate who was really into plants helped me with it a lot, put fertilizer in it, and watered, and repotted it, so it was doing good, now I just recently moved and it’s been kind of crazy, so I wasn’t watering it, then right before I moved I watered it and cut off a lot of dry stems, so now it looks like a skeleton, no leaves at all, no blooms, just branches, but they are starting to turn brown at the place where they were cut off. Please help, I’m finally ready to take good care of it, but don’t know how! I moved, and the only window I have is facing East, but even in the first half of the day there isn’t that much sun bc there are trees blocking it a little, well not enough light for the rose basically, right now, I put her outside where she can get a lot of light, but I really want her to be healthy, can you please tell me what I can do to save her, please.
Hi, it’s me, Tracy, again. The mini’s are growing and blooming like crazy! They’re still in the pots and sitting out in the hot (90*) afternoon FL sun. I keep them watered but am afraid to move them as they are doing so well. My question is how and when to prune them? Should I try to plant them in the ground? I can plant them where they are sitting now or can move them out into the yard (but is more shaded). Thanks again!
I received a mini rose tree for Mother’s Day, with a beautiful round shape and plenty of buds and flowers. Since the first batch of flowers died and were dead-headed, all the new bud and growth are going way out of the round shape that I really liked. The stems are 6-8″ longer than I’d like them to be, even though I cut back a couple of inches when I dead-headed. How can I get the plant to reflower within the round shape? (By the way, it’s in a large pot, on my patio since I don’t have a yard, and in full afternoon S. Utah sun.) The growth, buds, and flowers all look healthy, but I’m just not sure how to prune it.
I have two mini rose plants, approx. 8 yrs. old, they have not bloomed for 1 and 1/2 seasons. Good growth & foliage, a long stem rose plant next to them is doing well. I live in Southern Colorado
Are you fertilizing it?
Yes, I am fertilizing. I am doing nothing different than I have done for the last several years. I had beautiful blooms until last year.
I have a mini rose plant that was giving to me in bad shape .It was re-potted then came 3″ of rain , knocked off all the blooms and leaves. Some of the stem is still green.but nothing on it. Is there anything I can do to save it.
i bought a beautiful rose tree a few months ago – it was doing great until just recently. now some of the leaves have a white dusting on them and the new buds are dying and falling off. i water when the dirt is dried out and it is in full sun. i have fed and applied all of the proper insecticide – HELP!!!! also – i live in chicago – should i put this tree in the garage for the winter??
I have a Mini Rose plants one of them the leaves all fell of and one of the other one seem to have died.
I do not have a garden so have them indoors. when should I prune them and should I put them in separate pots.
In all there is 8 plants.
Hi, great site! My question is…my husband has given me mini roses (like the kind in a little pot from the grocery store) for the past two years for my birthday. I’ve kept them alive inside and then transplanted them outside in the spring. I, honestly, expected them not to last over the winters, but they are both doing really well. So, now I’m wondering three things:
First: how mini is a mini? The packaging didn’t say how large these plants will get. (Sorry, I know that without the variety names this could be a really hard question.)
Second: I planted them about a foot apart. Was this far enough?
Third: If I should transplant to further apart, when should I do so–in the spring?
Thanks so much!
My husband bought me a mini rose from the grocery store a few days ago. It has beautiful flowers, a few buds, and mostly healthy green leaves. I noticed that it came with a bug problem: there are tiny flies that hover around the plant, and when I removed dead/mildewy leaves from the soil level of the pot, some came out with larvae on them. Is there something I can do to save the rose from suffering? Can I spray it with something non-chemical? Should I find a new pot to house it?
Winterover mini rose
hi, I live in northern ontario and received 3 mini rose bushes in Jan. In the summer I planted them outside and they are still in full bloom,(oct) the plants have grown taller too. can I leave them in the ground covered up for our cold winter? if so what should they be covered with?
Hello,
I’ve been reading your replies about putting a potted mini-rose bush in the garage for the winter. I don’t have a garage, it’s more like a storage room, but it’s still pretty cool, and by the back door. Is this a good place?
My rose bush has been on my deck all year, and although the temp is cold enough for water to freeze, the bush has very few leaves. Maybe a dozen are a little brown around the edges, but there are still buds coming up…Would it be ok out there?
I can’t leave it by a window, because our 2 year old could reach the plant, as we only have one spot to put it.
The room I would be putting it in, would sometimes recieve light from an incandescent light bulb, as it’s across from the laundry room…
Can you please give me your best advice on a location please?
I brang the mini-rose bush in and put it on my dining room table and there are a lot of yellow leaves now. What do I do?
Hi, nice reading about your pages on mini rose. Recently, i bought a mini rose in a pot and place it near my window (guess i have 2 months to make it work!). As I live in the tropical and in an apartment, there is a great deal of heat in the room (I could not stay in the room in the afternoon where it get too hot for humans). The leaves are turning yellow at the base of the plant, dropped off (some with a black spot) and the flowers and top of the plant are doing well (some bud are in dark color, does not look good to me). I water it only once a week to avoid over watering. How do you get along with the heat stress in the room? My other plant is dying, i think, of heat stress, with yellow leave starting at the tip and new leaves curling up. Can using a 24 hour fan help to cool down the rose? The window are close in the afternoon to avoid rain coming in when i am not at home. Thank you very much for any advise to cool down the plant. warmest regards!
i have a minature rose and i water it every 3 days or so it’s in a pot that’s well drained i noticed about a week ago that the blooms were drying up on the plant almost as soon as they were opening and i thought it might have root damage so i pinched off some of the growth like i was told to in another article, now i’m noticing new leaf growth but the older leaves are dying off faster than the new growth is coming in , i was worried that mabe a couple of days ago it wasn’t getting enough sunlight so i moved it to a sunnier spot i’ve only had the mini roseplant for two weeks and i’m not very expierenced with them, please tell me what to do with my poor little yellow blossomed baby or should i just give up and give it up to my green thumbed mom to revive and keep?
Hello,
Unfortunately I am at uni in a 10th floor flat, and my window doesnt have a windowsill. Also, I am worried that she doesn’t like the warmth in my room, which I need to keep so that Penelope my Peace Lily doesn’t get ill! Have you got any ideas? would transfering Rosalynd (the rose!) from a plastic pot into a porous one help? or some miracle grow food?
my mum gave me a little rose plant about a month ago, i’m not sure what type of rose it is but it has orange flowers. In the last couple of weeks though, lots of leaves have fallen off and its looking very brown
Thanks, Laura, UK
Hello-
I have been reading some of your responses to the questions, my question is I have had my mini rose bush for almost a year at my office, it grows and looks lovely, it has not bloomed since i first got it, which I understand is because it is inside and isn’t getting the amount of direct sunlight it needs. It has grown so much that I have had to brace it with a bamboo stick. I have never pruned it. How and when would be the best time to prune it so it is not growing everywhere. It almost looks like a climbing rose bush at this point.
Hi! I was given a mini rose bush and the leaves closest to the base dried up. I pulled them off. The roses turned brown before they were done blooming, and the newest bud turned turned brown before it even bloomed. There is new growth on the top. Any suggestions on what is going on? How do I bring the roses back?
Thanks!
We just bought three potted mini roses plants. We live in Delaware and it’s the end of March. When should I plant them outside? Also, the nursery told me to use fertilizer that has a higher last two numbers…is that right?
Hi, I recently bought a mini rose plant from the grocery store, I dont know what kind but Ive seen 2 different looking kinds before, one where the flowers are one solid color and open wildly then the kind I got where the colors seem to vary more (from what Ive seen brought in around valentines day) and the flower doesnt spread open wide. Its white and turns pink at the petals edges. I had to carry it a ways in cold rain and snow (10 min approx)apon getting home I left it on a shelf by a skylight so it would have light. Because of some issues Im having with little flys I kept it in a separate room that doesnt getting heating much so its been pretty cold at night though not freezing. I noticed a week later that a couple of young flowers not opened yet were dry, and so I watered it, figuring it was cause I didnt water it in a week. Since then, by each day that goes by it more and more leaves and stems are drying up. They dont turn yellow,or brown, they just dry up. Im concerned its dying, it doesnt look rootbound and the soil is quite moist, maybe over watered it? Please help!All the new buds though small are also drying up before they can bloom., Thankyou.(Oh, by the way, its in a green plastic pot with holes in the bottom, and has a decorative paper around it that looks like it was coated in somthing plastic on the inside.)
I have two lovely miniature roses. I pruned them back significantly when I got them and they have more than doubled in size with a lot of new growth. Recently some of the leaves have lighter spots or blotches on them as well as brown spots and some dried up places. It is not powdery mildew or anything on the surface, but the actual color of the leaves. I have fertilized them and they seem to be getting enough light. Please help. Thanks so much
I am so excited. I am getting a sunroom and want to know if I can grow miniature rose trees in my sunroom easily. I do not have a very green thumb but I love these rose trees. They are so beautiful! Do I need to purchase a specific kind for indoor potting? Thank for your site. It’s so nice to have someone to ask these questions.
My husband just bought me a mini rose bush for my birthday, but I have no place to plant it (outside). Can I transplant it to larger pots and still keep it healthy that way?
We are getting a Mini Rose bush from a friend and it has been planted outside for about 4 years. It is about 4′ around. Can I split the plant and if so how do I go about it?
I have a rose bush outside that I have had for three years. it has done well untill a couple of days ago. The leaves have started falling of from the bottom up. the leaves still seem to be green but they have a redish brown spidery look running through them. They fall off in groups of two or three. Can you help me? Ruby
I also put stones around them. That wouldn’t make a difference, would it?
No, shouldn’t make any difference.
Hello!
I live in Kansas and recently my husband purchased me a beautiful mini-rose bush for our anniversary! My history with being able to keep plants alive is poor, but not for lack of trying. I have only had it for three days and would really like to keep it alive as long as I can. In reading above, I have realized that planting outdoors is preferred, but since we live in an apartment that is not an available option. Currently it’s still in the container. I do have a pot that would be a great size to transplant into, but I’m not sure when the best time would be to try. I want to be certain that I start off doing all the right things so I can avoid another tragedy! Any advise on how I can give this little guy a proper upbringing??
Thanks!!!
I live in Southern CA, where the temp is 115 in the summer. I bought a mini rose tree that had flowers and leaves on it. Within 3 weeks the flowers fell off as well as the leaves. It was in direct sunlight in the morning (100 degres) and watered once a week. I moved it indoors and have it in direct sunlight with the temp around 78. No new leaves or flowers yet, it has been indoors for about one week. Also, I cut off the base of the dead flowers, was this correct.
I bought a very healthy mini-red rose plant from the grocery store about two weeks ago. I placed it on my covered porch on my home so the plant gets light and a some sun. It still is in the cover on the bottom of the plant. Now the leaves are turning yellow and the beautiful red buds and flowers have drooped over except for one. I’m wondering if I over watered it, it needs more sunlight or the pot needs enlargement. Please advise.
this is out of the question but how do you revive a tomato
plant that is torn in half???
Hi,

I live in Maryland.
Thank you so much
can u suggest any particular
“bloom boost 10-50-10″ ,the proportion for each plant and how many times a month in morning/evening.
I have mini roses and I have transplanted them in new pots using good soil and I have them on my porch. I have had them for about 3 weeks now and they are loosing their buds and leaves making it look bare. I have lots of roses and plants and I have never had a problem with any of them. I need some help to save them.
Hi, I got a small rose plant in a pot for my birthday. I do not have space outdoor so I keep it in the little pot on my window sill so it will get tons of light. I’ve been careful with water and gave it about 1/3 of a mug every other day. For the past few days that I’ve had it, the roses all wilted, including the rose buds that haven’t even bloomed yet. I trimmed all of them off. The plant also came with a pack of clear jelly-like liquid that I have no idea what it is, so I put it on the surface of the soil. My questions are:
1. What is the clear jelly-liquid and what do I do with it?
2. Why are the roses wilting so fast and how do I make the plant healthy again?
3. What do I do in the winter when my apartment is gonna get pretty cold, no lights, and no eventual outdoor space to plant it?
Thank you so much for your help!
Winterover mini rose
Please help!
I have one of these mini roses, in a pot indoors. It was purchased for me from a grocery store recently. I have kept it out on my sunporch, where it got afternoon sun and did well. As the weather turned cool recently, I am curious – how do I keep this lovely little plant alive over the winter? Here are my details:
I live in Zone 2. Yes, 2. I cannot plant this little flower outside.
My house faces east. I have no windows on the south side of my home. The only reliable light is the afternoon, in my sun porch. In other words, my house does not get any natural light to keep house plants. I CAN’T keep houseplants alive. I gave up trying years ago.
Also (bad, I know) I never took it out of the original 4″ store pot. When it was given to me I honestly didn’t think it would live this long.
It gets cold here in the winter, often -40. So, it gets almost that cold in my sunporch.
Can I simulate a milder winter for this plant somehow? Maybe in it’s pot in my basement or something?
Any suggestions would be so helpful!
Last November I received a potted mini rose plant due to surgery. It was in full bloom with lots of leaves. During the year I kept it inside and watered everytime the soil was dry(which seemed like it was all the time). The buds died and some leaves turned yellow and fell off. Back in mid August my step mother informed me that mini roses love it out side. I put the plant outside on my back deck. One half of the plant it just brown sticks and the other half looks like it loves it out side. It has not bloomed again. I live in CT and it is now October. Nights are getting cold. Is the one half of the plant dead? Should I repot it? Should I take it inside for the winter? I am afaid to kill it. I have lots of room to plant outside, but I didn’t know I could have planted it outside. Should I do that now? Help! Thanks.
I have nine mini roses leftover from my wedding in the beginning of Sept. I have repotted them to bigger pots than what they were in and water regularly. All my house windows are shaded so bringing them indoors for the winter doesn’t seem to be an option. I have them sitting on the porch where they can get sun. Will they be okay there for the winter (I live in Plain City, OH) or shall I put them in my garage?
