- The plant should not be exposed to direct sunlight, this is fraught with the appearance of burns on the leaves and buds.
- In the selected area, holes are dug with an approximate size of 60x45 cm.With group plantings, the interval between holes should be from 30 to 50 cm.
- Before planting, seedlings are placed in a growth-stimulating solution for 1-2 days, treated with a manure mixture.
- After planting the plant, you need to not only water it, but also build an earthen roller to retain moisture.

Plant care
To grow a crop, you do not need to fulfill any specific requirements. It is enough to water the rose in a timely and regular manner, apply complex mineral and organic fertilizers, prune and prevent the development of diseases and the reproduction of insects.
The frequency of watering a hybrid depends on weather and climatic conditions.Each time, about 15 liters of river or well water is required to be poured under the root (it is important that chlorine is not contained in the water). In late summer and early autumn, the frequency of watering is reduced, since the plant must prepare for hibernation.
The type of fertilizer used depends on the season. In the spring, it is advisable to use nitrogen-containing compositions for awakening and growing buds, and in late summer and autumn, potassium-phosphorus compounds.
The first sanitary pruning is done in early spring. During its implementation, damaged and dry shoots are removed. The second pruning is carried out after the first flowering for the purpose of an attractive design of the bush. The final pruning is also sanitary, carried out during the preparation of the plant for the upcoming wintering.
