Features of planting roses

To equip a beautiful flower bed using the "queen of flowers", you need to know how to plant it correctly. In addition to the procedure itself, there are nuances as to what time of the year it is performed. Such recommendations are necessary for novice gardeners.

When to plant roses in the garden

Usually planting is done either in spring or autumn - each grower chooses the most optimal time for himself. The climatic features of the area where the flower will grow should also be taken into account. What you need to consider when planting flowers in open ground, depending on the season:

Planting roses in the ground at each time period has its own advantages and disadvantages, but still the best option is spring. The root system will have time to get stronger before the onset of frost. And it will definitely develop correctly, since spring is a period of active growing season.

Planting roses in the open field, step by step instructions

Before planting a rose, it is necessary to study the step-by-step algorithm for carrying out the preparatory procedures. Each rule has its own exceptions when it comes to a unique variety or species.

Location selection

You need to plant bushes in a suitable place for this, which meets the following conditions:

• The light should be good, but direct sunlight on especially hot days can harm the aboveground part of the plant. It is advisable to choose a place where the sun will appear only in the morning and evening.
• The soil should be fertile and breathable. If the soil retains moisture, then the roots will begin to rot.
• It is worth choosing parts of the flower beds where the plants are not planted too densely - it is desirable that nothing grows at a distance of half a meter near the rose.

Ideal location for bushes

If we take into account all these features of the location, then there will be no problems with further care.

How to prepare the soil and flower for planting

Before planting, you need to prepare not only the soil and the hole, but also the seedlings of roses. The last point is very important, since even a good place and excellent soil cannot guarantee an excellent result if the planting material was initially selected (poorly prepared).

Fertilizing the pit

How to properly prepare the soil just before planting:

1. Having chosen the right place, you need to dig up the ground 1.5 bayonets in depth in 2 weeks for planting. During the procedure, it is worth adding humus or manure.
2. After 2 weeks, you can prepare the pit. The depth and width are determined by the size of the root system of the seedling.
3. At the bottom of the pit, you need to pour expanded clay or river sand (5 cm). This layer will help improve the permeability of the soil.

The soil from the pit can be mixed with complex fertilizers or humus. Around the pit, it is worth organizing a fenced hole so that in the future, when watering, the water does not spread.

Initially, it is worth choosing the right and good planting material:

• It is necessary to choose those varieties of roses that will definitely be relevant in terms of the climate in certain growing regions.
• If the shoots were purchased, and the stems were covered with paraffin, then it must be removed with a wooden toothpick. Typically, branded sprouts are coated with paraffin during delivery.
• When transplanting, you should pay attention to the roots. They need to be shortened to 30 cm. It is advisable to cut off the damaged, dry and diseased parts.
• The stems also need to be cut, leaving about 35-40 cm in height. This will be enough to resume the growth of the aboveground part.
• The roots should be soaked in any antiseptic to "remove" all pathogens and parasites.

Soaking the root system in an antiseptic

If all the components are completely ready, then you can proceed to the direct landing.

You can also plant cuttings of roses. For this you need potatoes. You need to take a large potato (you can cut it in half). Insert a rose branch into the tuber, which is cut at an angle of 45 °. Set the workpiece in the hole, bury the potatoes and water thoroughly. In a potato base, the sprig will take root quickly.

Planting features depending on the season

There are several recommendations on how to plant roses in an already prepared hole in the fall and spring. The principle is almost identical except for a few nuances:

1. You need to install a bush in an already prepared hole.
2. Spread the root system along the bottom of the pit.
3. If planting is carried out in the fall, then a mound should be formed around the stem, which will cover 2-3 buds above the ground. You also need to form a closed "dome" - cover the stems with foil.
4. If planting is carried out in spring, then it is not worth pouring the earth too high on the stem - it should just cover the root system. No additional cover is required.

Both in spring and in autumn, it is necessary to determine the needs of the plant for watering, depending on the weather conditions. If the weather is rainy, then it is enough to moisten the soil a little. In dry weather, more generous watering should be done.

Planting nuances depending on the variety of rose bushes in spring

Depending on the variety, an algorithm is determined on how to plant roses in the spring. Particularly relevant will be guides for planting park, English roses. It is also important to know how to plant climbing and floribunda roses.

Planting park roses

You can decorate the garden with park roses, which are best planted in autumn, but spring planting is also popular. How is the procedure performed:

1. It is necessary to determine the places for planting - the distance between the bushes should be 1-1.5 m, it is enough to retreat 0.7-0.8 m from the hedges.
2. The bush pit is harvested in 2 weeks. Organic fertilizers are pre-applied.
3. The pit must be thoroughly watered before and after planting.
4. After digging up the plant, the ground around the aboveground part must be leveled.
5. Straw or peat is laid around the stems to create mulch.

Planting park roses

Such a popular garden specimen of the "queen of flowers" does not require special manipulations during planting, but it needs special care already in the summer.

Planting english roses

Instruction for planting English roses consists of the following steps:

1. Choose a place that is away from stone and metal structures. The distance between the bushes can be only 1 m, there should be no threat of drafts and flooding.
2. Prepare a pit that is abundantly fertilized.
3. Soak the root system in an antiseptic solution (12 hours). Then place the root in a mud bump.
4. Plant a bush in a hole and water abundantly.

Features of planting English roses

The above-ground part must be covered with earth for 2 weeks. Then remove the soil from the stems and water.

Planting floribunda roses

Floribundas are planted around the 20th of May. This is done as follows:

1. Dig a hole and fertilize it.
2. Pour a fertile soil mixture at the bottom, which includes complex fertilizers.
3. Place the root on a slide inside the hole. The grafted branch should be 8 cm below ground level.
4. Sprinkle the root first, and then fill the entire hole with earth.
5. Water the specimen thoroughly.
6. The stems need to be shaded, preferably with paper.
7. Sprinkle the ground around the aboveground part with peat.

Planting climbing roses

Gardeners love not only bush varieties, but also climbing ones. The landing feature of such specimens is as follows:

1. Trim the root system up to 30 cm and the stems up to 20 cm.
2. Prepare a small hole and install a bush.
3. Water the specimen well.
4. Gradually add the root, tamping the ground.
5. It is imperative to shade the aboveground part and sprinkle the roots with mulch to maintain constant soil moisture.

The size of the pit is formed depending on what size the bush is taken.

Planting ground cover roses

The planting scheme for ground cover roses is as follows:

1. A pile of river sand is poured onto the bottom of the prepared hole.
2. The roots of the sprout are positioned so that they "descend" from the made slide.
3. Water the specimen with water containing dissolved complex fertilizers.
4. A bush is dug in so that the grafted branch is located below ground level.
5. Cover the aboveground part from direct sunlight.

What ground cover roses look like

The area should be well lit and free from other plants. You can land near partitions and buildings.

Planting hybrid tea roses

Growing hybrid tea roses is a pleasure. They survive in almost any environment and under any conditions. The planting principle is the same as for ground cover roses in the spring. Additional processing requires a purchased copy - you need to cut off the dry shoots of the root and lower the sprout completely into the antiseptic mixture.

How to care for a bush after planting

Growing roses after planting is easy enough. The main condition is proper care. Plants require the most attention in summer:

• You need to open the bushes at the right time if they grow in an open space.
• You should carefully monitor the level of soil moisture around the bushes.
• Periodically, it is necessary to make top dressing, which is especially needed during the flowering period.

What is useful for caring for roses

Planting roses correctly is a real art. The procedure itself does not take much time and effort, since it does not require special skills and abilities in the field of gardening. If everything is done correctly, the roses will quickly take root and begin to bloom after a certain time.
