Successfully Growing Miniature Roses Indoors

 

Miniature roses are one of those plants that say “pick me – pick me!!” at the store.

They’re simply irresistible.

But the minute you get them home they start complaining.

Why?

Miniature roses have a delicate root structure that demands a constant balance of air and water – not too wet or not too dry. And they aren’t very tolerant – if you don’t get it just right they’re quick to complain.

Watering is a guessing game – they always seem to be too wet or too dry. And if you don’t get it just right the plant becomes stressed. Miniature roses under stress are a magnets for insects – especially spider mites.
