house if the plants are in full sun then blooms are sparse and don't last as long. Roses need about 2 inches of water a week and in hot weather they may need that water applied about every three days. Drip irrigation works better that overhead sprinkling systems. Moisture should get at least 12 inches down in the soil for good root development and growth. A good layer of mulch around the plant helps keep the soil evenly moist. A fertilizer formulated for roses with a 10-18-10 or 9-5-9 applied about every 4 to 6 weeks during the growing season usually works best.
