Pruning and transplanting
Pruning and transplanting
Trimming the bush twice a year. In the spring, old shoots and branches damaged after wintering are removed. In the fall, the rose is pruned: weak, diseased and damaged branches are removed. This will preserve the decorativeness of the bush and improve the formation of young shoots.
If the conditions of the growing place no longer meet the standards or the bush needs to be moved to another place, the transplant will help. It is held in early spring, while the buds have not yet blossomed. Otherwise, the vegetative period of the plant will be disrupted and it may begin to hurt and will not give tremendous flowering.
To begin with, they dig a hole 45x45 centimeters. Next, a drainage layer, garden soil and fertilizers are placed there. A carefully dug plant is planted in a hole, instilled and watered. If several bushes are transplanted, then the distance between them should be half a meter.

- incorrect pruning of branches after wintering. We'll have to wait for the next fall and do everything right;
- the rose froze in the winter. Only leaves will appear on the bush, and flowering should be expected next year. To avoid this again, shelter should be arranged.
