Roses are the most common flower plant. In many countries, people buy roses as gifts once Valentine's Day comes. Roses come in several colors, usually red, white, and yellow.


At the same time, roses are also a great flower plant. So how do you care for roses? Remember 4 ways to grow flowers to help your garden bloom!


Farming method 1: suitable soil


Suitable planting soil is the basic condition for good growth of roses. Without good soil, it is difficult to cultivate, and the roses planted in this way are unlikely to have good root systems.


The most suitable soil for planting roses is leaf humus rich in humus. The leaf humus is loose and breathable and has sufficient nutrient content. At the same time, the leaf humus contains a large number of beneficial bacteria and microorganisms, which can acidify the soil and improve the structure. It is very suitable for planting roses.


Because the structure of humus is relatively fine, the water retention is too strong; in the process of daily maintenance, it is easy to have too high water content for a long time, causing the basin soil to accumulate water. Therefore, it is also necessary to add an appropriate amount of draining substances, such as coarse river sand, perlite, vermiculite and other particulate substances, which are more conducive to enhancing the drainage of the basin soil. Generally, the amount added is one-third of the total soil amount. more appropriate.


Breeding method 2: light and temperature


Roses are positive plants, and sufficient light will make the roses more vivid and the fragrance will be more intense. Roses need 4 hours or more of light a day, and prolonged absence of sunlight will cause the leaves of roses to turn yellow.


In winter, when the outdoor temperature is too low, the roses should be brought back indoors, but they should be kept near the window to ensure that the roses can be exposed to the sun.


Roses like to grow in a warm environment, 12-28 degrees Celsius is the most suitable, and can not be lower than -5 degrees Celsius, otherwise it will cause low temperature freezing damage.


Farming method 3: watering


Generally speaking, the weather is warmer in spring and autumn, which is also the growing season of roses. Only enough water can make it grow better, so as long as we see that the soil surface is dry, we should water it once in time.


But in too hot summers and cold winters, roses will enter a dormant period with changes in temperature, and the growth rate will slow down or even stop growing.


At this time, its demand for water will naturally be greatly reduced, so we have to wait 2-3 days before watering the roses after seeing that the soil surface is dry, so that the roses will better absorb water.


Farming Method 4: Pruning and Pest Control


Proper pruning after the flowering period, you can cut off the withered flowers, which is conducive to subsequent growth. It can also be properly pruned during the dormant period in summer, which is also more beautiful.


Common diseases and insect pests of roses are rust, brown spot, branch blight, aphids, etc. Prevention and control should be carried out in time. For diseases caused by bacteria, antibacterial drugs should be sprayed in advance for prevention.
