Never do it: this winter mistake can kill roses

Owners should pay enough attention to roses during the cold season. This will help protect the plant from sudden changes in weather conditions and ensure abundant flowering next season. One of the most important factors for the development of a rose is regular watering.

OBOZ.UA took a closer look at this issue and found tips that will help protect the plant. The owners make a big mistake when they stop watering the bushes in winter.

There is a misconception that roses do not need moisture in the cold season due to frost and snow, but this is not true. This is especially important for those regions where winters are dry and the soil is quickly depleted, which leads to a loss of nutrients.

Rose bushes do not need deep and intensive watering, you need to maintain soil moisture. It is enough to water the plant once a week, but it all depends on the weather conditions. It is worth checking the soil from time to time to determine whether the plant needs additional moisture.

It is important to choose sunny days to avoid damaging the roots. Too much liquid can also be harmful to the plant.

This regular care will contribute to a strong root system and also help prevent unwanted fungal diseases.

You should not cover roses too early without waiting for frost because heat accumulates under the shelter and pests can appear there.
