Hello,

I have had to replant a mature standard rose tree and it isn't looking
too
healthy. Is there any tips for helping it settle into it's new
surroundings? I'm a bit of a novice so not sure whether to give it
loads of
water [don't want to drown it but all the new buds are all drooping, it
looks quite sad].

TIA

When I did two of these I cut one right back and the other I didn't.
After a year or so the former is stronger than it has ever been and
the other is doing ok but nowhere near as good.


So do you reckon I should prune off all the new buds and cut it back the
sooner the better? [just been out this morning and it looks even more sorry
for itself]
