Each woman received a bouquet of roses. These magnificent flowers delight us for several days, and then, alas, wither. If you want this flower to please you much longer, get it on your windowsill. A rose in a pot will become a favorite of your home garden. Nowadays, you can find an incredible number of varieties of this plant, intended for growing in a cache-pot on window sills, in balcony drawers and in winter gardens. A rose in a pot will require you
a little more effort than a garden, but the result is worth it. This flower will fill your home with the comfort and atmosphere of love.
Transfer
So, if you purchased or gave you such a wonderful, but rather whimsical plant, do not write off to transplant it. Many flowers quite calmly tolerate this procedure, but a rose in a pot from a store can survive several weeks perfectly. To avoid ailments, place the plant on the window and leave it alone for two weeks. If the flower feels good, you can start transplanting. In order to properly transplant a rose, you need to prepare a cache-pot (five centimeters larger than the previous one), land (it is better to purchase in a specialized store so that your plant is provided with all the nutrients it needs, as well as micro and macro elements) and drainage (you can use expanded clay). When replanting a flower, remember that the rose is extremely sensitive to damage to the roots!
Top dressing roses
After transplanting, a rose in a pot will require top dressing after about 2 weeks. When choosing fertilizers, give preference to the store. There are two ways to feed a plant:
- Basal top dressing.
- Top dressing by spraying.
A rose in a pot needs fertilizer only in the spring and summer. At this time, fertilize the flower once every 2.5-3 weeks. In winter, the plant does not cause much trouble.
Watering a plant
Since the flower is extremely sensitive to excess moisture, watering is necessary depending on soil moisture. In order to avoid drying out, check the condition of the earthen coma twice a day in the summer, morning and evening. For irrigation, it is preferable to use settled water at room temperature. Despite the fact that the rose is capricious enough, with proper care it will delight you with magnificent color for six months a year!
Propagation by cuttings
This plant is quite easily propagated by cuttings. In order to get a new plant, it is necessary after flowering to take a stalk from the best bush. Better if it is young shoots. You can root cuttings under a can in the ground or sand. In order to avoid depletion of the plant, the first buds must be removed.
Rose is the queen of flowers. In addition to the bouquet and potted roses, gardeners also grow a border rose. Caring for it has its own characteristics. But if you do not want to complicate your life by caring for such a whimsical plant, experts will help you choose spring flowers in pots for every taste.
