Mister Lincoln Roses Melbourne

Pruning Mister Lincoln roses is essential for maintaining the health and beauty of your flower beds. Start by removing any dead or damaged branches, as they can act as a breeding ground for pests and infections. You should then cut back any thin or weak stems that don’t add to the desired shape of the bush. When pruning, use sharp pruning shears and make sure not to remove more than one-third of the bush at once. Making clean cuts will help reduce damage to the plant and encourage healthy new growth in place of the removed branches. Regularly pruning your Mister Lincoln roses ensures that your flower bed remains attractive and vibrant all season long!

Mister Lincoln roses, also known as "hybrid tea roses, " are notoriously thirsty flowers, requiring substantial water to thrive. It is important to ensure that your Mister Lincoln roses are kept hydrated and sufficiently watered daily with at least one centimetre of water - if possible, more during extended heat or drought. 

It needs the right fertiliser to ensure this beloved rose bush continues to thrive and produce its beautiful red blooms each year. An organic slow-release granular or water-soluble formulation is best suited for this type of rose, providing long-term nutrition over several weeks with minimal effort on the gardener's part. Read application instructions carefully and do not apply too much; otherwise, you may have more foliage than flowers.

Mister Lincoln is a hybrid tea rose, popularly known as a shrub or bush rose, which are all types of bare-root roses. This means that Mister Lincoln can be planted successfully as a bare-root rose with proper drained soil preparation and some effort. If the roots remain undamaged, this type of rose can survive the transfer from its temporary potting environment to the ground if maintained properly.
