Room roses in pots grow up both fans of house flora, and specialists in phytodesign. These masterpieces of the nature are capable to create the blossoming and aroma fantastic effect. And that to achieve it, it is necessary to study agrotechnology of cultivation of pottery roses thoroughly.
Growing up pottery rose, flower growers resolve set of issues: on what to pay special attention upon purchase how to achieve that she has taken root in the house. Trying to meet conditions of room contents, achieve good results.
Choice of sapling
Survival in new conditions and plant life term directly depends on quality of planting stock. It is important to choose healthy, strong plant. Let's provide the approximate scheme of the choice:
Survey of stalks. Green equal stalks without spottiness — sign of healthy plant, and black specks will indicate fungal defeat. Availability of young escapes promotes good adaptation in the conditions of premises.
Check of leaves. At healthy rosette dark green elastic sheet plates without signs of withering. White raid on leaflets – sure sign of mealy dew, and black and brown spots – fungal disease. The yellow shade will indicate exhaustion of plant.
Visual examination on availability of insects wreckers will allow to prevent their active development.
From soil in container there should not be smell of mold and decay.
You should not choose plant on which there are a lot of magnificent buds. The temptation is high, but such plants are literally stuffed with blossoming stimulators. After change from container in constant pot the survival of the blossoming plant is much lower, than flower on which there are very little not revealed buds.
Landing of room rose
This whimsical beauty will demand constant attention. It is not necessary to replace rose from container in pot right after purchase. Let the container will stand 1 – 2 weeks for adaptation in the conditions of the apartment. Then it is necessary to examine once again carefully plant whether there were no wreckers or symptoms of diseases and if everything is all right, it is possible to replace in new pot with openings in the bottom, it is better ceramic. On the first year the pot with sizes of 10х10 cm (height, diameter) will approach.
On bottom of pot the drainage layer, about 3 cm keeps within, from small pebble or haydite, but that it did not close openings for water drain. Then part of the nutritious pochvosmesa made especially for roses is filled up (is on sale in the garden centers). After abundant watering the sapling is taken from container together with damp lump of the earth and carefully transferred to pot. Around earth lump it is necessary to fill up residue of soil, to condense accurately with hands and to water with warm, otstoyanny water without chlorine.
For the best adaptation the processing by growth factor "Zircon" is carried out. For the purpose of prevention from fungal defeats it is possible to process rose the medicine "Fitosporin", and from insects of wreckers — Aktara or Aktelik.
At first to rosette it will be very heavy, but if agrotechnical receptions are carried out correctly, then she by all means will recover and will begin to develop.
Conditions of cultivation and leaving
Key parameters indoors are the illumination, temperature, air humidity, and leaving elements — watering, fertilizing, change, cutting, fight against diseases and wreckers.
This photophilous plant loves scope, and it is impossible to put pot near other flowers closely to each other. Good option for small bushes — wide light windowsills of the windows coming to the southeast, the southwest or the West. At the southern window in summertime it is necessary to apply easy shadowing from the midday sun. That the bush was evenly formed, it is useful to turn it from time to time. Late fall and in the winter when daylight hours short, the knowing flower growers apply additional illumination electric or fluorescent lamps from distance not less than 40 cm from flower. Illumination joins daily for 3-4 hours.
The best temperature range for rose 20-25 C. The room has to be aired regularly that air was fresh, but it is necessary to watch that the rose did not stand on draft. During summer season it is possible to take out pot on balcony, verandah, loggia. In winter time whenever possible it is necessary to move plant to the room where about 12-15 Pages.
Air in the room should not be overdried. If the pot costs near the electric heater, then it is better to find for it other place. It is possible to cover the battery with damp fabric. Now it is possible to use modern devices humidifiers.
It is necessary to water in due time, drying and overwetting of the soil is inadmissible. During active vegetation the bush should be sprayed in the morning or in the evening (not at noon). In 20-30 minutes after watering, it is necessary to check pallet and to merge surplus of water. By fall the watering is reduced.
It is necessary to feed up rose water solution of complex fertilizers for the blossoming plants. It is possible to find special compositions of fertilizers for roses in the garden centers. It is better to bring fertilizing small doses once a week. The replaced and sick bushes it is not recommended to feed up as the weakened plants will not be able to cope with digestion of nutrients.
Young rosettes replace every year in new pot by the size a little more old, and adult bushes in 3-4 years. It is better to replace in February, is closer to spring activization of plants. It is necessary to watch constantly bush, to perform thorough inspection and in time to process from diseases and wreckers. It is the best of all to cut off plants from deflowered inflorescences and the dried-up escapes in the fall when the plant is prepared for winter rest.
