What are the features of agricultural technology of bushes
In order to get lushly flowering bushes grown with your own hands, it is worthwhile to study in advance when it is better to plant roses and where exactly. This culture loves sunny areas, but in this case it will bloom not so much, form buds less than those bushes that are planted in partial shade.
A site with a pronounced landscape is not a very good choice, it is better to plant plants on a flat area with moderate humidity, since an increased water content promotes the development of pathogenic microflora - the habitat of black spot and powdery mildew. Healthy bushes almost never get sick, but weakened ones die in almost all cases.
Therefore, from the foregoing, only one correct conclusion can be made: it is better to plant Amber Queen rose in the darkened part of the flower bed, where there is a more or less flat area or with a slight elevation (within normal limits), protected from strong gusts of wind.
