Selection of seedlings
To get lush roses, you must correctly approach the selection of seedlings. You should look at their appearance. In shoots and stems, the color should be green, the structure is elastic, the bark without damage. The kidneys must be alive and healthy. The root system should also not be damaged, rotten. Green foliage should be free from stains.
Landing procedure
First of all, you need to prepare a seat:
- Dig a hole 60 cm deep and add organic fertilizer inside.
- In acidic soil, lime or ash should be added.
- Put drainage and compost at the bottom of the pit. It is important to keep in mind that the roots should fit freely in the pit.
Seedlings are placed in a container with water so that the roots are saturated with moisture. Most of the shoots are trimmed, only 3-4 stems remain, which are subsequently shortened by 25 cm.
Landing
Step-by-step landing instructions:
- Lower the seedling into the pit, while gently straightening the roots and positioning the plant so that the root neck is 4 cm below the surface of the earth. Plant them at a distance of 1-1.5 m from each other.
- Fill the seat with soil and tamp.
- Abundantly water the seedling.
Important! Spring planting should be carried out next to the support. It can be a wall, a column, a grill, etc. This will help facilitate plant care and provide beautiful flowering. The maximum distance between them is 30 cm.
Plant care
If you observe the following rules of care, you can expect a positive result:
- Do not allow overdrying or waterlogging of the soil.
- Water at least 1 time per week with heated, stagnant water in the morning or evening.
- Remove damaged areas of the plant when a disease occurs.
- Trim old branches and prune young ones to preserve the nutrients in the roots and rejuvenate the flower.
Pruning
- Use insecticides to defeat harmful insects.
- In spring and autumn, saturate the roots with oxygen by loosening.
- In autumn, strengthen the plant's immunity and its resistance to frost before the onset of winter using phosphorus-potassium fertilizers.
- For the winter, carefully cover the roses with fir branches or plastic wrap, having previously removed them from the support, tied and laid on the ground covered with dry leaves or branches of spruce.
- In the spring, before the period of kidney swelling, nitrogen fertilizers should be used that accelerate the development of foliage and shoots.
Important! Prophylactic treatment of roses should be carried out, especially in wet weather. Although the plant is resistant to fungal diseases, it cannot do without this treatment.

The disease occurs due to an excess of nitrogenous fertilizer, a lack of calcium and drying out of the soil. Will solve the problem of spraying the bush. For this you need to use "Topaz" or "Fundazole".
- Gray rot. Occurs in wet weather. It harms buds and pedicels. They acquire a fluffy coating of white-gray hue. Instead of blooming, the buds rot. A solution of the drug "Euparen multi" will eliminate the disease.
- Bacterial cancer. This is the appearance of growths on the roots and root neck, the formation of nodules and tumors. Affected plants need to be eliminated, and growths on the roots to the side cut off. After pruning, dip the roots in a solution of 1% copper sulfate, rinse them and send them to the slurry from clay with sand.
Gray rot
