China Roses prefer consistently moist soil, especially during the growing season. Water deeply when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Avoid waterlogging, which can lead to root rot.

Reduce watering slightly in cooler months, but do not let the soil become completely dry.

Prune China Roses in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove any dead, diseased, or crossing branches. Aim to open up the center of the plant to improve air circulation and light penetration.

Lightly trim back leggy stems to encourage bushier growth.

China Roses can be propagated from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer. Select healthy stems, cut sections 10-15 cm long below a leaf node, and remove lower leaves.

Dip the cut end in rooting hormone and insert into a well-draining potting mix. Keep moist and in a bright, indirect light location.

Repot China Roses every 2-3 years, or when they become root-bound. The best time to repot is in early spring before active growth starts. Use a slightly larger pot with fresh, well-draining potting soil.

Ensure the new pot has drainage holes to prevent water accumulation.
