The rose Dortmund blooms under a canopy of hardwood trees in a free style garden.<\/p><\/div>\nIt is widely held that all roses need full sun.\u00a0 While a true statement I would modify it a bit.\u00a0 All roses prefer full sun but some can grow in dappled light.\u00a0 And grow happily!<\/p>\nFirst though let’s decide what “full sun” is.\u00a0 In our rose growing experience full sun is at least 6-7 hours of full sun.\u00a0 But if it is only half a day of sun then it must be morning sun.<\/p>\nA rose will be happy in a location that gets full morning sun but it will not be happy in a location that gets only afternoon sun.<\/strong><\/p>\nNow that we’ve gotten that out of the way let’s turn our attention to growing certain roses under dappled light.\u00a0 There are few tricks to it and the video will help you with that.\u00a0 But here is a good rule of thumb to remember<\/p>\nThe fewer petals a rose has the more likely it will be happy with less sunlight.<\/strong><\/p>\nKeep that in mind and here are a few rules of thumb.<\/p>\n\n
At first don’t actually plant the rose in the ground.\u00a0 Did a hole for the pot the rose is in and slip the pot into the hole.\u00a0 That way if the rose isn’t happy there, you can just pull the pot out of the ground and try a different location.<\/li>\n
It make take several tries to find the right spot.<\/li>\n
You will know if the rose is happy because you are a good gardener.\u00a0 It will put out new growth, perhaps even bloom and look happy.<\/li>\n
A rose in less sunlight still needs the same care as a rose in full sun.\u00a0 Good soil, water and healthy dose of common sense.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
