Agrotechnics
A gorgeous rose morden blush grows well in illuminated glades, is able to withstand light partial shade. Any florist should carefully select a place for planting seedlings, because strong immunity and health depend on this.
Good place for growing
If the roots of the Blash variety are provided with free aeration of the air, then this will save the chic flower not only from dangerous insects, but also from various diseases. Lowlands with stagnant moisture are an unfavorable place for planting perennials. The fact is that the Canadian rose variety does not tolerate stagnant moisture, the cold air that collects in the lowlands also adversely affects the health of Canadian varieties.
A florist needs to know the conditions for cultivating a Canadian rose:
- Requirements for the soil composition - loose soil with a reduced level of acidity. It develops poorly on sandy soil, because this composition poorly absorbs life-giving moisture, is characterized by a poor content of nutrients. Sandy soils are subject to rapid heating and cooling, which adversely affects the health of roses;
- Good light level. This variety feels great both in illuminated areas and in places with a little shade. It is possible to achieve the result of an inflorescence with burnt out petals with the initial placement on the sunny side;
- The optimum temperature for the comfortable formation of the first graceful buds and gradual flowering is from +14 to +20 C. During the winter cold period, perennials endure severe frosts down to -20 ° C;
- Comfortable humidity level. Any pink species cannot stand the increased dryness of the air. The comfortable moisture level for development is 50 to 80%.
A perennial can not stand constant drafts; it is better to choose a windless place for planting it. When planting a perennial on a sandy soil composition, moisture-retaining substrates are introduced. Nutrient peat is suitable for this.The step-by-step introduction of sod or compost will help to retain moisture and increase the nutritional value of the soil mixture.
Compost
During the spring thaw, after dangerous frosts, young roses are planted. Planting of established specimens is also allowed during the onset of autumn coolness. During planting, flower growers observe the recommended distance:
- The permissible distance between young seedlings is 60 cm;
- Before other perennial shrubs, a space of 2 m long is set aside;
- Up to massive trees, they form a gap of 3 m.
For placement in open soil, spacious holes are prepared, 50 cm deep. Before placing in the prepared soil mixture, the roots are placed in a manure solution. This composition will nourish the young perennial, keep it in one place, preventing it from shifting. The roots are carefully straightened in the pit, the hole is covered with a substrate, and the trunk circle is compacted.
Formative pruning is required when planting young stock. In the future, dried branches are cut off on the bush. Primary watering should be as abundant as possible, life-giving moisture penetrates deeply. For this purpose, 10 liters of settled water are poured under each planted specimen. The frequency of moisture replenishment is 2-3 times a week.
Watering roses
After direct planting on the site, the moden perennial develops at an individual pace, while the spread roots have not yet matured.
