Write an article based on this "Cover the area around your bush with 1–2 inches (2.5–5.1 cm) of mulch. Lay down a cardboard mulch if you have weed problems. Water your rose bush when the soil gets dry. Water your rose bush before sunrise or after sunset."
Purchase an organic or an inorganic mulch online or at a home and gardening store. Sprinkle the mulch around the rose bush in an even layer. Leave 1 inch (2.5 cm) of clearance around the base of the bush.  Do not pile the mulch up around the crown of the bush. Adding mulch will allow the soil to retain more moisture for the roots and discourage weed growth. Organic mulch includes wood chips, straw, grass clippings, and leaves. Inorganic mulch includes gravel, stones, and glass. Replace or add more organic mulch once a year at the beginning of the summer. Laying down cardboard mulch can solve extreme weed problems. Place the mulch over the entire area so that you add a top layer of mulch. This will prevent any weed seeds from being exposed to the sun and will prevent them from sprouting. If you don’t have weekly rainfall or your rose bush is a potted indoor plant, you must thoroughly soak the soil. The top 2–3 inches (5.1–7.6 cm) of the soil should be moist. You can check this by poking your finger into the top layer or soil. If it’s dry, water it. Roses will wilt and dry out when they aren’t watered enough. If you water your roses in the middle of the day when the sun is out, they will get water spots. In addition, the water will evaporate quickly and won’t have a chance to penetrate the soil.
