5 blunders care of roses in the garden

No wonder the rose is called "Queen of the garden." Amazingly beautiful flower, but just as many and capricious - because of flaws in the care of a plant ceases to bloom in the die. I tell the story of 5 blunders at growing roses. They sometimes make newcomers flower garden, and already experienced people.

1. Improper planting too high. Rose to feel good and successful development, bury the root neck of plants on 3 cm. Visually it looks like this:

2. Wrong approach to watering. Rose should be watered less often, but abundant. If you regularly moisten the top layer of the soil, the root system razrastotsya flower near the surface of the earth. So there will be a weak and vulnerable to winter frosts.

The temperature of the water for irrigation issues rose loves the "sweet spot". The optimal rate - about 22-25 ° C. Cold water from the tap or from the well could destroy the flower, while hot and the rose is also not to their liking. Another important point - Water the plant by the roots. Once on the leaves, water droplets will play the role of a prism and lead to unsightly burns.

3. Long fertilizer. Rose fed only until mid-summer. Then stop feeding. If you fertilize the plant in August, it will not be able in time to go into a dormant period, will issue new shoots that will not survive the cold. Because of this, there is a danger that the rose will disappear during the winter.

4. The weak autumn cropping. Some gardeners rush to cut a rose after flowering. But there is a caveat: the fall we conduct "sanitary" and shortens the crop, and spring has the one whose task - to form a bush.

After flowering of a rose is removed:

• shoots, flower stalks (leave 1/3);
• All patients and the weak portion;
• young shoots - winter, it still will not survive, and could still be a source of infection.

The shoots are pruned to make them easier to conceal. Generally, leave 1 / 2-1 / 3 (depending on the type of rose).

5. improper earthing. Leads to the fact that the rose starts growing, instead of preparing for hibernation. Recommend conduct hilling roses in 2 stages. The first time - in early October - lightly sprinkle bush land, and by the end of October - the hill like a potato, about 20 cm tall. Use a simple land, but the sawdust, peat and sand is not suitable because of their physical characteristics. The recording was of interest to you? Please put "Thumbs up!" Thanks!
