Walk through your yard to find an area that gets full sun exposure.
Plant seeds only after the last frost, midday. Spread potting soil over the flower bed area. Make sure the ground is at least 70 degrees and dry. Water the new seeds sparingly. It's a good idea to watch the Weather Channel the night before to be sure that it isn't going to rain.
Moss roses can grow in a variety of soils like sand, loam soil and loose soil. One of their many benefits is that they can thrive in poor to average soil. Find an area that drains well.

Flower root systems will rot if left in standing water. In addition, the plants are drought hardy and rarely need to be watered. Plant the flowers 10 inches apart, so pick an area that has enough room and won't crowd the plants. The flowers can spread to 2 feet, which make them great for ground covering.
Moss rose blooms are long lasting with some proper care. Pinch any dead or wilting blooms off the flowers. Though it seems a waste to prevent the seeds from the flowers from dropping on the ground, you are actually preventing the flower from finishing its reproductive task. The plant in turn will continue to produce series of flowers. Be careful when pinching off the flower to not destroy the stem. Use an organic insecticide when treating for insects. Prevent snail infestations by lining the flower beds with sand. Snails will avoid having to cross over coarse material. Caring for moss roses can be made simple just by finding a safe, dry place to plant.
