Landing

For planting bushes, it is advisable to choose a bright place protected from cold winds. Desiree roses are undemanding to the soil, but bloom best on nutrient-rich, loose soils.

Before planting the bushes, a planting pit is prepared in advance. The depth of the hole should be about 60 - 70 cm, width - 50 cm. If several bushes are planted, the distance between them should be at least one meter. A drainage layer of at least 15 cm must be laid on the bottom of the pit.

The excavated soil is mixed with humus, sand, a complex of trace elements, wood ash and nitrogen fertilizers. It is important to mix the resulting mixture well so as not to burn the roots of the bushes.

Important! When planting roses, it is advisable to use long-acting fertilizers so as not to waste time on frequent feeding during the growing season.

The bushes are covered with the resulting mixture and poured abundantly with warm water. The soil around the bushes can be covered with black film or other mulching material.

Caring for the bushes is as follows:

  • Watering;
  • Weeding;
  • Loosening the soil;
  • Pruning;
  • Protection against diseases and pests.

Watering the bushes is carried out if necessary, excess moisture can harm the root system. The topsoil should dry out between waterings.

Pruning is carried out for the first time in the spring, before the awakening of the bushes. Remove dried, weak branches growing inside the bush. The second pruning is carried out after the appearance of green branches. It is advisable to do it as early as possible so that the bush does not waste energy. It is necessary to remove the shoots that grow inside the bush, the lower branches, up to 20 cm high, one of the competing shoots.

Important! You can not prune bushes on a rainy day, high humidity can contribute to the defeat of fungal diseases.

Sometimes several buds can form on the stem of the Desiree rose, if the flower is intended for cutting, the extra buds are removed.

I grow Desiree roses in a greenhouse for sale. Excellent variety. Does not stretch, does not get sick with powdery mildew. Flowers sell out very quickly, probably because, unlike most Dutch roses, these flowers smell. This year I was interested in the Red Desiree rose with burgundy buds. I bought several bushes and planted them. Hope this variety doesn't disappoint me either.

Most of all, I was interested in that she is not capricious, resistant to heat and frost. I rarely visit the country, it is important for me that flowers grow without round-the-clock attention. The variety pleased, indeed, it blooms perfectly in all weather conditions. For three years I have never been sick, we fight only with insects, this rose is very fond of aphids and bronzes.
