Features of care
Measures for caring for white-flowered rose varieties do not differ significantly from the technology for growing ornamental crops of other varieties:
- Rose bushes need to be fed regularly, using aged horse manure mixed with soil for this purpose;
- the use of pig manure and poultry droppings should be limited due to the botanical characteristics of the crop;
- at the stage of bud formation, it is advisable to feed the plant with calcium nitrate, diluted at the rate of a tablespoon per bucket of warm water;
- every two weeks during the active growing season it is recommended to feed the plants with mineral fertilizers, as well as herbal infusions with the addition of mullein;
- It is not advisable to use fertilizers at the stage when roses are blooming;
- before fertilizing and immediately after fertilizing, in order to avoid the rose getting burned, it is necessary to water the plant as much as possible;
- fertilizing and watering should be carried out in cloudy weather, or in the evening and morning hours;
- if it is necessary to increase the vitality of the rose bush, it is recommended to fertilize with Epin, Potassium Humate, Zircon or Ecosil;
Mulching the trunk circles of rose bushes with a layer of humus, hay or peat gives a very good result. In cold and rainy weather, rose bushes are not able to absorb nutrients from the soil, so foliar feeding is carried out by spraying, which improves the condition of the ornamental crop, as well as increases the number and size of flowers.
