Care for flowers gives great pleasure to the gardener. Rose bushes are fine in itself, but to them, as well as to diamond, it is necessary to give the correct facet that they have seemed in all beauty, and for this purpose them it is necessary in time and it is correct to cut.
Instruction
1. In the spring when frosts from roses recede, remove the winter shelter and cut off bushes. Cutting is necessary for stimulation of growth, updating and development of plant, abundant blossomings.
2. First of all it is necessary to remove all the weak, old and damaged by disease or frosts escapes. All others need to be cut with steps. Mistake of many flower growers is cutting of all escapes at one height. As a result branches interfere with each other and compete among themselves for light. It is necessary to cut with sharp secateurs, thin hacksaw or knife. The cut is done smooth in 5 mm from kidney obliquely.
3. It is how strong to cut off escapes, define depending on species of rose: * Remontant roses are thinned out, the strongest escapes slightly cut: at the main thing leave 10 kidneys, at others – 6. Such undercutting provides the second and third blossoming during the season. All branches are more senior than 3 years it is necessary to cut off completely as they will not blossom. * park roses give inflorescences on two-three-year-old branches therefore such branches do not cut, and only thin out, deleting sick and weak escapes. * tea roses and roses of floribund can blossom literally on any escape. Therefore that the bush was not exhausted, leave at silnorosly bushes on escapes 4-6 kidneys, at slaborosly – up to 3 kidneys. * Poliantovy roses earlier. Many grades of poliantovy roses strongly branch, forming many small flowers of the first or third order that provides them long continuous blossoming. They need to be cut off very shortly, leaving no more than 3 kidneys on escape.
4. When roses fade, escapes cut off, taking the dried-up bud and 2-3 leaves. As a result the bush is started up in blossoming again. If you want roses to blossom is abundant and long, cut off fruits as they take away many forces from plant. It is regularly also necessary to delete the young escapes appearing on the blossoming branch and wild young growth in the summer. So you considerably will increase quality of blossoming of the high-quality and imparted roses.
