- regular feeding with organic and complex mineral fertilizers for flowering plants (about six times per season);
- annual sanitary pruning (removal of dry, wilted leaves, stems, buds);
- pruning to form a bush;
- preparation for winter (pruning shoots to the base with buds, sprinkling with earth, foliage, covering with polyethylene, agrofibre).
Pests and diseases
Boeing white rose is characterized by an average degree of resistance to the effects of some pathogens. The following ailments can affect the culture:
- Root mold can occur on plants as a result of abundant or frequent watering. The causes of the appearance of a pathogenic fungus are improper winter shelter of an ornamental culture, low temperatures with abundant watering. The tone of plaque on the root zone of Boeing litter can vary from white to various shades of gray, depending on the different stages of development of the fungus.
- Gray rot (the causative agent is the fungus Botrytis) provokes the appearance of unaesthetic gray spots on the foliage and buds of the Boeing rose. The pathogen-parasite infects the upper part of the plants, gradually descends downward. The fungus is carried by birds, insects, wind, precipitation. Gray rot is activated at high humidity (fogs, morning dew), cool weather or temperature changes.
- Powdery mildew - a dangerous fungal disease that can cause the death of the bush. It appears as a white, mealy bloom on foliage. It provokes the development of the fungus Sphaeroteca pannosa. Powdery mildew is activated in hot weather, with high humidity, with an excessive content of nitrogenous fertilizers in the soil.
- Necrosis the bark on Boeing roses is manifested by a change in the natural color of the bark, dark growths or spots appear on the shoots. The affected areas begin to crack and die off rapidly. Shoots lose their decorative appearance. The causes of the disease can be increased soil and air humidity, an excess of nitrogen or a lack of potassium.
- Aphid Is a well-known sucking pest that feeds on plant sap. It multiplies rapidly. In the process of vital activity, it releases a sweet substance, which is an ideal breeding ground for pathogenic fungi and bacteria.
- Spider mites - arachnid insects that inhabit rose bushes in dry, hot weather. During the growing season, the pest manifests itself in the formation of light spots on the leaves.
- Golden bronze popularly called the "May beetle". During the period of budding and flowering, they eat delicate petals and young shoots. Rose bushes lose their decorative appeal. Pests can be collected by hand or cultivated near plants, because at night the golden bronze hides in the soil.
- Rose sawflies feed on young shoots and foliage of roses. Insects penetrate the inner part of the branch, after which the ornamental culture begins to wither and die.
