Growing a flower

The soil must be prepared. For this, drainage is carried out. The earth is loosened so that oxygen and moisture can pass through it well.
To plant a plant, the following step-by-step procedures are carried out:
- The resulting seedling is placed in water for half a day, a special growth stimulator is added to the liquid.
- A large hole is made so that the root fits freely in it.
- Black soil, humus, sand are sprinkled at the bottom of the hole.
- The seedling is neatly placed in the hole, each root is placed, sprinkled with earth on top of it.
- Immediately water the ground, then mulch the soil.

Since the flower grows in a nursery, watering is about the same at any time of the year. Irrigation of the land is done 2 times a week. If the temperature is too high, the frequency of watering is increased.
Top dressing and soil quality
The soil for growing a rose must be loose. It allows minerals, liquids and oxygen to pass through it.
Top dressing is added twice a month, which contains potassium, phosphorus, nitrogen.
Cropping and planting
In the spring, it is required to remove the upper shoots, as they could freeze or rot. Flowering can be carried out on a plant for up to 5 years. If new shoots appear, they are left, and the trunks are cut from last year.
Features of wintering a flower
If the plant is grown in a nursery, there is no need to prepare for winter as the ambient temperature is constant there.
When growing roses in the garden, you need to carefully prepare for the coming winter. For this, all unnecessary shoots and branches are cut off, the stems are bent to the ground. From above, the soil is covered with material. When the snow falls, a snowdrift is made over the rose.
