Winter is the ideal time to feed roses. Add horse, sheep or cow manure, blood and bone or a commercial rose food after pruning your roses in June or July. Additional manure and compost can be added throughout the growing season. Feeding roses, coupled with regular pruning, are the best means to ward of pests and diseases. Roses require little watering and do not tolerate humidity, so they thrive in a hot, dry summer.
