The grafting method of propagation is carried out only if you have knowledge. Work is planned for the summer. Before autumn, the rootstock will have time to grow together with the bud.

Planting process
Before planting, the seedling is inspected and damaged roots are removed. Then they are dipped into a special composition to speed up survival.
Planting stages:
- dig a hole so that its parameters slightly exceed the size of the root system;
- pour drainage into the bottom of the hole;
- Place the seedling in the center, straighten the roots, then add soil;
- water generously;
- To retain moisture, add a layer of mulch to the tree trunk circle.
Watering and fertilizing
During drought, you need to water more often and more abundantly. It is better to plan work in the morning or evening. Do not wet the foliage and buds. If precipitation occurs on time, then watering is carried out as needed.

After watering and fertilizing, loosen the soil in the tree trunk circle, remove weeds and add mulch.
Trimming
The first pruning of Red Naomi roses is carried out in the spring before the buds open. Damaged branches are also removed.
