Spray roses bloom profusely, with a large number of buds that bloom gradually, while some have time to bloom, while others are just starting to blossom.

before flowering, in the spring, before the start of active growth;
during the laying of the buds;
after flowering;
before lumbering stems.

What to do if the bush does not bloom?

There are several reasons why a rose may refuse to bloom.:

a poor landing site; for a rose, you certainly need a lot of sun and heat;
too much cropping;
an excess of fertilizers, or their complete absence;
a large number of weeds near the bush;
wintering under shelter, the bush may get a bacterial burn; such branches should be removed;
if the rose is more than 3 years old, then it is necessary to rejuvenate it annually.

If the plant has not bloomed, then you should check that all of the listed factors are absent. Surely there is something that has prevented the rose from decorating the garden with its flowers.

Use in landscape design

Roses are actively used in the landscape, curbs are formed undersized, weaving are great for decorating fences, arbors and walls of buildings. Shrubs look great when growing independently, and in group plantings. In flower beds and stalls you can create incredible compositions with roses.

Step-by-step care instructions

For the cultivation of bush roses, no special skills will be needed, but still there are certain nuances that must be observed when planting, leaving and selecting the soil.

Seat selection

A bush rose needs a lot of light, and therefore it is not necessary to plant a rose next to other shrubs or trees. It is advisable that natural shade of the rose be carried out at lunchtime. The lowland can be used for landing, but you should first check it for the lack of groundwater.

Recommended soil

The soil should be slightly acidic, drained and nutritious.. The beauty and splendor of flowering depends on the number of nutrients. Garden soil mixed with peat and bone meal is best.

Landing

The best time for planting a rose is considered autumn.

Before planting in the soil, the roots are examined for the absence of the weak and sick, if such are found, then they should be removed. If the roots have time to dry, then it is better to hold them a little in water.
A hole is dug up to the size of the root system. At the same time, it should be controlled so that the roots do not bend or jam.
The top layer is slightly crushed, then loosens and watered abundantly.
Peat placed on the surface of the bush will have a good effect on the rose.
Rose hilling and soil mulching are regularly carried out.

If the region of residence is too cold in winters, then it is better to plant a bush in the spring. So he will have time to settle down and will be ready for wintering.

It is better to do this from the end of April, and it is better if the soil warms up to +10 ⁰C. In this case, the long roots are shortened, the shoots are cut to 10 cm, so that no more than 4 buds remain.

Temperature

The optimum temperature for roses is not lower than -6⁰C, then the plant should be covered. Dry leaves, dried spruce branches are suitable for this. At high temperatures, the rose may fade. To prevent this from happening, you should increase the amount and abundance of irrigation, mulch the soil.

Watering

Roses do not like moist soils too much, and therefore water enough once every 2 days. If only there is intense heat, then watering is increased. At least 10 liters of water should be poured on each bush at a time. The best time to water is in the early morning, before the heat.

Top dressing

Feeding roses is carried out throughout the growing season of the plant. Stop only for the winter. Mineral fertilizers are applied regularly.

For the first feeding, 20 g of ammonium nitrate and 20 g of ammonium sulfate diluted in water are suitable. This amount is enough for 1 square. m
After 1.5 months, nitrogen-containing fertilizer is applied.
With the beginning of budding, a mixture of 30 g of superphosphate, 25 g of ammonium nitrate, 10 g of potassium salt per 1 square. m
At the end of flowering, universal fertilizer is used. In winter, top dressing is not performed.

Pruning

Pruning is performed annually; all damaged and diseased shoots are removed. In this case, it is necessary to perform forming cutting of the bush. Pruning is done in spring or autumn. Be sure to remove all basal shoots, as it takes away a lot of forces from the plant. To form a strong shrub, leave only the strongest twigs. It is important to leave at least 2 buds on the plant after pruning.

Transfer

Rose transplantation is performed as needed. This procedure is not required annually. The best time to do this is September, after flowering. If the transplant is made in connection with the appearance of a fungal disease, then it is necessary to remove all the affected parts of the roots.

The transplant process is no different from a normal landing. When digging up the shrub, it should be borne in mind that the root system is quite developed, but the removal of the roots of the rose tolerates well, so that slightly damaging them will not be harmful.

Preparation for winter

For wintering, all inflorescences are necessarily removed from the rose.
Weeding, loosening of the soil is carried out.
A rose can be treated with fungicides to protect against insects; ash will prevent the appearance of rot and other diseases.
Shrub pruning is carried out, watering is reduced, feeding is stopped.
The soil is mulched with a layer of sawdust or peat.
If necessary, the shrub is provided with shelter with the help of a frame of two arcs, insulation and film.

Diseases and Pests

Most of all, bush roses are susceptible to fungal diseases, to prevent their appearance, watering should be done only when necessary, prevent drafts and not plant in the shade.
When root rot appears, the plant should be transplanted, having previously removed all infected roots and shoots.
Fungicides will help protect the shrub from powdery mildew, gray mold, rust and tserkosporoz.

Of the pests, the aphid most often affects the rose; insecticides and other drugs are used to control it. Minor infection can be eliminated by washing off with soapy water.
