• Start a rose collection: You can buy roses online or at your favorite home and garden stores.

• Plant roses in the ground: Boost equity by leaving the roses in the ground for the next property owner. (Pro-tip: Plant roses in the ground and pots—those in pots can go with you to your next property!)

• Roses with citrus trees: Roses and citrus trees mingle well together. Both love full sun! (Keep both to increase the property value even more!)

• Climbers: Add a metal or sturdy trellis for your climbing roses. Attach to the trellis—watch how their pretty faces cascade and put on a show!

• Roses make the best cut flowers: Make beautiful and stunning arrangements with roses. (Pro-tip: cut the stems in water to prevent air bubbles from entering the stem. This method creates a longer lifespan of the rose.)

• Lush roses: According to Martha Stewart, give roses lots of sunlight, proper drainage, and food they love—such as bone meal.
