How to care for roses after flowering: tips on how to preserve the bushes

Roses will become a real decoration of the garden. However, these flowers are very whimsical. The slightest mistakes in care - and there will be no trace of lush, bright flowering.

OBOZ.UA figured out how to care for roses after flowering. With proper care, roses will bloom even longer next season.

Tip 1

Choose sunny and open places for the bushes. Roses will not grow in beds where moisture stagnates. Moreover, in such conditions, the plants will suffer from fungal diseases.

Tip 2

It is important to adjust the watering regime. It should be thorough, regular, but not excessive. It is better not to touch roses during the heat of the day - burns can occur on the leaves and flowers. Watering should be done in the morning or evening, using clean, warm, settled water.

Tip 3

During the growing season, roses need fertilization. Organic and mineral fertilizers will come in handy.

Tip 4

Timely and proper pruning will promote active growth of roses. This way you can form a beautiful bush. Pruning should be done in spring and autumn, removing dry, diseased and old shoots first. The angle of inclination should be 45 degrees.

Tip 5

It is worthwhile to regularly inspect the bushes in order to detect diseases and pests at an early stage. You can use folk remedies for preventive purposes.

Tip 6

Mulching is an important step in caring for roses. By mulching the soil under the roses, moisture will not evaporate as quickly. You can do this with bark, sawdust, grass, or straw.

Tip 7

You should prepare for the cold in time. Roses can be covered with fallen leaves or agrofiber to protect the bushes from wind and frost.
