Always position the rose with full sun in mind in rich soil, they are hungry plants.  Water well in well-drained soil and keep on top of your pruning. When doing your last prune of the year make sure the stem has an angled down cut to stop water sitting and rotting the stems back.  And use sharp pruning shears.
