Help!

So, I bought two miniature roses that are quite charming, and planted them together in a pot. Apparently everyone has an opinion about roses, and how to take care of them, and what their favorite songs are, etc. You get my point. What I need is some sound advice on "The Basics of Rose Maintenance". I know that many of you actually know what you are talking about, and I am a blank page {except I did get a wooden dowel and stake the longest branch to grow up, instead of flopping down}.

Thanks,

Miniature Roses In The Pond

This is a sneak peak with purpose, if you will.  I am staying at Aunt Marjorie's house, and planning on doing a garden tour of her backyard.  One thing that I have really liked is that she planted Miniature Roses in the middle of her water feature.   It's kind of a nice touch.
