Planting & Care Tips for Toowoomba Gardeners:
Plant your Smooth Touch® 'Buttercup' rose in a sunny, well-drained location with at least six hours of sunlight daily. Enrich the soil with organic compost and mulch well to retain moisture through Toowoomba’s drier periods. Winter is the ideal time to plant your roses in the Toowoomba region, allowing them to establish strong roots before the blooming season begins. For the best performance, prune in late July and fertilise with a complete rose food at the start of spring.
