In diameter, these flowers reach about 3 centimeters. This hybrid reaches a height of approximately 78 centimeters, but in general, growth does not exceed 58 centimeters.

rose care

Basically, these roses are shown in the catalog of cut hybrids. Consider the description of this hybrid. The roots are formed by the age of 3, as it is believed that by this period the rose becomes a mature plant. Planting seedlings is possible in open ground, and in pots. On a personal plot, seedlings should be planted in categories of 5 bushes. Cropping is not needed here: since it itself is neatly formed. The spray rose is very similar to the mini rose, however, these roses reach a height of approximately 35 centimeters.

These varieties are quite whimsical, the flowering period is the whole season. Lydia is perfectly cut, planting is possible with its own roots. For cuttings, you can take the lower processes with several leaves. You need to cut the seedlings obliquely, while leaving 2 buds with one leaf below. From above, the seedlings need to be covered with a transparent bag. After 2 months you will get a young bush.

Cuttings of seedlings are best done in the summer months of May-August. For quite a long period of time in our country, this category of roses was represented by only one hybrid, Lydia. Roses should be planted in the spring, the grafting area will be a couple of centimeters below the ground. Pruning should be done in the spring. In addition: pruning should be carried out in summer and autumn. If the rose was planted in the fall, then the first pruning should be carried out in the spring.

Care and landing

The spray rose needs little care as it is a hardy plant. the flowering period of this flower is almost constant. Caring for a flower also involves sheltering it for the winter, and this process is not difficult to implement. Care also involves pruning, and it also does not hurt to feed the plant. Main conditions proper cultivation This rose hybrid is a sunny site and constant loosening, moderate watering. As you can see, it's easy to take care of.

Features of planting a rose

Consider how to plant a spray rose:

  • If you bought seedlings not in a container, and the bush has an open root system, then while digging a planting hole, the bush must be placed in a bucket of liquid.
  • Pit dimensions: about 45 cm in diameter, the same in depth.
  • The top layer of soil, which is about 23 cm thick, must be set aside separately, it is then laid in its place. On the basis of the recess, it is necessary to arrange the drainage necessary for damp soil. The drainage is based on 2 layers of small stones, which are sprinkled with sand.
  • Then stacked organic fertilizers, for example, rotten. Or you can use dry branches, dry foliage, or either grass. Then they will be an excellent fertilizer.
  • In addition, you can sprinkle manure on the base of the pit.
  • The soil prepared by this method is formed as a low mound on the basis of the pit, where the root system of the seedlings needs to be spread and then it should be sprinkled with the top layer of identical soil. Then the soil must be compacted, carefully trampled down so that there are no air voids.

If you purchased in a container from a container, then, carefully tapping on it from any side, we take out the seedlings, while trying not to damage the soil with the root system. The paper type container needs to be deployed. Then you need to install the soil with the root system in the planting recess on the made hill, you need to spread the outer root system over it, then you need to dig in, compact the soil, and fill it up from the upper area, while making sure that the bush is exactly on the hill. Need to stomp around.

Near the bush, it is necessary to make a small hole so that during watering the water is near the rose. After the planting process, you need to pour from a proportion of 8 liters of liquid per bush. It is better to take the liquid from the rain, and by all means it must be warm, for example, from the sun heated by the sun's rays. We let the tap liquid stand for several days so that there is no chlorine, and the water can warm up. Thus, plantings need to be watered with this water. Rose care also involves watering and mulching. so the water doesn't evaporate.

Spray roses or the favorite flower of all brides

amazing flowers

A new group of roses #8212 spray appeared relatively recently, in the 80s of the last century. By separation from the floribunda group. They have compact, low bushes (40 #8212 50 cm), the flowers are quite large and there can be up to 15 buds on one branch, scattered like sprays. Spray roses #8212 are incredibly beautiful and elegant.

The bushes of this flower are neat and compact. The spray group is unpretentious, quite winter-hardy, and of course, very decorative.

We are all well aware of such varieties of roses as: tea #8212 hybrid, bush, climbing, and even miniature. But recently they started selling spray. They are also called bouquets.

Where does such an unusual name come from?

It's simple, on one branch of the spray rose group, 10 #8212 15 double flowers collected in a brush, 4 #8212 7 cm in diameter, bloom at the same time. These mini bouquets are often sold in flower shop like a cut.

The favorite flower of all brides and their girlfriends who are eager to catch the wedding bouquet. One cut rose branch #8212 whole bouquet for a happy bride.

Like all varieties, the spray is responsive to top dressing. For intensive growth, rose bushes can be fertilized with nitrogen-containing fertilizers from spring to the end of July, and in the summer they need trace elements (phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, etc.) for flowering.

A very long time ago I read in some # 8212 magazine that under rose bushes, including for spray, you can bury a banana peel. Since it contains all the necessary nutrients for these colors.

I tried it, I can say that the roses did not complain. On the contrary, the flowering has become better. I advise you to try it too. Just be careful not to damage the roots if you bury.

Spray Rose Care Tips

The rose is without a doubt one of the most beautiful flowers in the world, its unusualness and beauty has attracted attention since ancient times. Many people want to grow and enjoy its charms, but not everyone knows that the rose is quite difficult and demanding to grow. It requires careful care, which includes watering, pruning, top dressing, loosening, weed removal, protection from pests and diseases. The proper development and rapid growth of the plant depends on all these procedures.

The difficulties in growing are that the rose loves space, loves to be the center of attention, it is not for nothing that she is the queen of flowers.

Following some tips will help grow this whimsical, but such a beautiful plant.

Roses do not like dry air and temperature changes, they are demanding on fresh air. When growing roses in rooms in which warm and stuffy air, growth and flowering are retarded. Therefore, by the middle of spring, indoor roses should be gradually accustomed to outdoor air, open windows and do airing.

Roses are very sensitive to watering, especially during the period of active growth, as well as in spring and winter. In spring, watering is increased as soon as the first, young leaves appear on the plant. In summer, the rose needs constant and abundant watering, avoiding drying out. For better growth, water for irrigation is taken clean, at room temperature and preferably settled. By the beginning of autumn, watering is gradually reduced, with the exception of those varieties that continue to bloom. The lack of water leads to the fact that roses stop growing, wither, lose leaves and general decorative effect.

In summer, roses need moist air, so they need to be sprayed. Spraying is carried out quite often, up to 3 times a day, and serves as a prevention of the appearance of pests. Do not spray roses that are in the sun, this can lead to sunburn.

The rose needs constant loosening of the soil, which begins in May and stops in August, in order to avoid further growth. In addition, in the process of loosening, weeds are destroyed, the soil is saturated with oxygen and heat. Especially the plant needs loosening after watering in sunny and hot weather, as well as after long rains. Loosening should be done not deep by 5-10 cm, so as not to damage the roots.

For continuous and successful development and the growth of roses, they need to be fed with a complex of mineral fertilizers. Which must include nitrogen, which accompanies the growth of shoots and leaves, phosphorus, for the formation of flowers, potassium and calcium, necessary to prevent diseases and root growth.

Top dressing is carried out in early spring and continues throughout the summer and towards the end of autumn.

Rose, as a representative of bush plants, needs pruning. Bushes are cut several times in spring, summer and autumn, after flowering. If the roses are not pruned, they lose their decorative effect and flowering worsens.

Summer pruning is considered very important, which excludes the formation of fruits and contributes to the development of the bush and abundant flowering. Pruning is also a prevention of many fungal diseases. It is desirable to do pruning at the same time, this contributes to the development of shoots and mass flowering. Also, thinning is carried out in the summer. Old and weak shoots growing inside the bush are removed from the bushes, they are cut off at the base, leaving 3-4 of the strongest and most stable shoots.

During heavy rains, unblown buds and flowers are damaged by rot and dew, in which case the damaged buds are cut off immediately, otherwise the plant may die.

Recently, many new varieties of spray roses for the garden have appeared on the Russian market, they are becoming fashionable. The most favorite of them, of course, is Mimi Eden from the Meilland nursery. Its delicate, as if skillfully carved pink and white flowers are very reminiscent of the Eden rose itself - one of the best Meyan roses, only in miniature.

Mimi Eden, originally a cut rose, has recently been adapted for the garden by grafting onto a hardy rootstock. Despite the opinion that spray roses need some special care, Mimi Eden in Russia has shown itself to be an absolutely unpretentious rose. It blooms almost constantly and needs the lightest shelter for the winter. Due to the fact that its dimensions do not exceed 50 centimeters, it is not at all difficult to provide such a shelter.

Care for spray roses is the same as for all floribunda roses. They bloom on the shoots of the current year, it is better to cut them in the spring, feed them in the usual way. Like many floribundas, they naturally form a neat bush almost correct form. And, like floribundas, they look most spectacular when planted in a group of at least 5-10, or even more plants.

The first step is to choose a good landing site. When choosing a site, you should pay attention to the following requirements:

  • Roses are light-loving crops, but some varieties grow in partial shade. If the seedlings are planted in the shade, then the bush will delight the owner with only a modest presence, it will not be possible to achieve lush flowering for sure.
  • Let the rose spray and cold-resistant, but she does not like gusts of wind and drafts, although the site should be ventilated.
  • The landing site should be located on a hill. If you give preference to a place in the lowland, then the plant will soon disappear there. This is due to the stagnation of excess moisture there, which leads to decay of the root system and the defeat of fungal diseases, as well as the accumulation of cold air currents.

A pit about 40 by 40 cm in size is prepared for planting. Expanded clay is evenly distributed as drainage at the bottom. During planting, rotted compost is added to the soil. The soil optimal for growth and development is light slightly acidic.

Landing Rules

Spray rose is an unpretentious type of ornamental plant that does not require increased attention. To obtain beautiful flowers, experienced gardeners recommend using the secrets of plant care and reproduction.

Selection and storage of seedlings

Right choice seedlings - the key to obtaining a strong and beautiful plant. Plants are sold in bulk, packaged in plastic bags with a nutritious soil mixture and with an open root system. Breeders recommend giving preference to the first type of flowers.

Signs of a healthy plant:

  • strong root system;
  • no mechanical damage;
  • lack of dry branches and signs of a fungal disease;
  • the presence of a pleasant earthy aroma and loose soil in the container;
  • the presence of living white shoots at the ends of the roots.

Before planting, it is imperative to trim the planting material, during which buds, dry branches and damaged stems are removed. The maximum number of eyes should be 5 pieces. The cut points must be treated with garden pitch.

Placement of seedlings in water with sodium humate overnight is a prerequisite before planting.

Drop off time and place

The choice of planting site for your favorite plant depends on its variety. For some species, the most favorable place for growth and development are sunny flower beds, and for others, places with partial shade, where the buds will always have juicy and rich shades.

The landing process consists of several main stages:

  • formation of a landing pit with a diameter of 50x50;
  • laying a drainage layer, for which it is necessary to choose river sand and fine gravel;
  • the formation of a nutrient layer, which consists of fallen leaves, humus, manure and organic fertilizers;
  • placing a bush in a prepared pit;
  • backfilling the plant with earth while compacting the soil around the stem;
  • abundant watering of the bush with clean water at room temperature in the amount of 10 liters per planting hole.

If planting is planned for autumn, then from the summer it is necessary to actively prepare the land in the flower bed.

  • cleaning of weeds and their root system;
  • digging the site with turning over the soil coma;
  • digging the necessary trench;
  • mixing the upper fertile layer with mineral fertilizers and placing the mixture at the bottom of the pit;
  • keeping the landing pit for several months.

If planting is scheduled for spring, gardeners recommend simply digging up the site and adding fertilizer to the ground. By the arrival of spring, the soil will be enriched with minerals and for planting it will be enough just to dig a hole of the required size.

Before forming a flower bed, one must take into account the type of plants that grew in front of the roses. Negative influence quince, cherry and hawthorn will provide the rose garden. To create favorable conditions for the growth and development of flowers, it is necessary to replace the topsoil.

To normalize the acid balance, ash should be added to acidic soil, and humus, compost and needles should be added to alkaline soil.

How to propagate?

To obtain new plants, breeders distinguish several methods of reproduction:

  • seminal- growing seedlings from the collected seed material;
  • rooting branches- digging the lower branch of the mother bush to form the root system of a new plant;
  • root offspring- separation of young plants with developed roots from the main bush;
  • cuttings- cutting off pieces of the stem and placing them in a growth stimulator, as well as planting shoots in greenhouses and greenhouses;
  • division- division of the whole bush into separate independent parts.

How to care?

Care ornamental plant will not cause difficulties even for novice gardeners. This process consists of the following procedures:

  • loosening the upper fertile layer;
  • timely removal of weeds;
  • regular watering and fertilizing;
  • correct pruning.

top dressing

An ornamental plant needs constant feeding throughout the growing season. The most important type of fertilizer in the summer is nitrogen, and in early autumn, experienced gardeners recommend potash and phosphorus fertilizers.

Watering

Regular watering is the main condition for abundant flowering. The amount of water depends on temperature conditions environment and should be increased during drought periods. A thick layer of mulch will significantly slow down the drying of the soil, and reduce water consumption for irrigation.

To prevent the appearance of burns on plants, experts recommend watering only after sunset.

Disease and pest control

Botanists consider aphids, cicadas, spider mites and leafworms to be the most dangerous pests of spray roses. To combat these insects, it is advisable to use a soap solution with mustard powder and red pepper, as well as special chemicals.

Among the most dangerous diseases of roses, the leading position is occupied by powdery mildew and black spotting.

At the first sign of the appearance of affected areas, treat the plants with a solution of soda.

Preventive pruning will help prevent the appearance of pests and diseases. Cut shoots must be taken out of the site and burned.

Landing and care

Planting a spray rose is not at all a difficult process. For planting, it is recommended to choose a sunny place. However, some varieties burn out in the sun, so a little partial shade is quite suitable.

In order to plant a plant, you will need:

  1. Dig a hole with dimensions 45 * 45;
  2. Put drainage (pebbles, sand) on the base of the hole;
  3. Put organic fertilizers over the drainage (dry leaves, rot, humus, manure);
  4. Plant the plant in the planting hole, cover with soil and compact around the stems;
  5. Pour settled and warm water (8 liters of water per bush).

These cultures are unpretentious. From spring to July, fertilizing with a high nitrogen content is required. And in the summer and until autumn, the plant needs microelements such as potassium, phosphorus. It is very important to apply fertilizer during the budding period and after flowering.

The soil around the stem must be loosened regularly. Watering should be moderate.

For the winter, roses need shelter.

pruning

Pruning is very important for spray roses. It stimulates the formation of young branches and provides more abundant and longer flowering. Pruning is recommended several times during the season. At the same time, dry and damaged branches are removed. Also, at the end of flowering, wilted flowers must be cut off.

It is especially important to cut the bush in the summer, so that the plant does not waste energy on the formation of fruits, but blooms more intensely and more abundantly. In addition, pruning is the prevention of fungus.

For the florist, a great joy is persistent roses with almost no thorns. That's what spray roses are. Graceful and miniature, they are beautiful in bouquet compositions and in landscape decor. Let's talk about them in more detail, see which varieties are worthy of attention.

Spray roses are part of the group of so-called border flowers. Slender, low, they adorn front gardens and parks in even rows. The very successful name of the flowers “spray” speaks for itself - a lot of neat flowers seem to “splash out” with spray from an even stem. Spray are a variety of roses of the Floribunda group. They rightfully take their place, showing the best characteristics of the group - mass flowering throughout the season, persistence in bouquets and unpretentiousness.

Due to the large number of flowers on the branch, a flower with a large number of buds already looks like a bouquet. And in combination with other flowers and greenery creates a feeling of grace and style. In the open field, roses are low lush bushes, most spectacular in growth up to 60 cm. Although some varieties “hold out” up to 90 cm.

Attention! It is noticed that stems with small flowers stand the longest in the cut.

It is successful to use pink shrubs in the design of the yard. You can create round compositions from them by installing a decorative fence around. Shrub roses also feel great in vertical "living walls". Alternatively, you can plant the bushes in free-standing flowerpots with earth - use small wooden wheelbarrows, wooden barrels and even old car tires as a container.
