Secrets of choice

2. Weakened plants should not be purchased. Only an experienced florist can return the rose to its former vitality.
3. The number of young shoots indicates the state of the rose houseplant. This means that the adaptation of a flower to new conditions will be painless. And if, upon arrival home, remove several already blossoming buds, then this procedure will significantly reduce the load on the plant and increase the chances of successful adaptation to new conditions. Do not be afraid that the plant will lose its attractiveness somewhat: the buds on it will bloom quite quickly and replace cut flowers
4. It is necessary to properly examine the leaves and stems of the plant you like: are they not affected by diseases and whether there are pests. Different colored spots on the leaves and stems of the bush indicate a fungal infection.
5. Falling or yellowing foliage indicates depletion of vital resources or acidification of the soil from excessive watering. Such a flower will also be difficult to revive.

Some subtleties of the adaptation period

Having received a gift from friends or bought a miniature rose in a flower shop, you should not rush to transplant it right away. The queen of plants is a very whimsical flower and, like any beauty, is capricious. It is necessary to give time to this plant to adapt to new conditions. For this, two to three weeks are enough.

How to care for a home rose

Many do not know how to properly care for a room rose. To transplant a plant, you will need to purchase a flower pot and soil mixture. The size of the new container should be only slightly larger than the existing one. Of all the pots on the market, of course, it is better to purchase simple ceramic pots without varnish. They have a porous structure, which facilitates ventilation of the plant's root system. All of these can be bought at garden centers or flower shops.

As a rule, 3-4 plants are rooted in greenhouses. Therefore, after the end of the adaptation period, the roses must be transplanted.

The queen of flowers is a very capricious plant and does not tolerate any impact on root system... Therefore, it is necessary to approach this procedure with special care. Before transplanting, the flower must be watered abundantly and, after an hour and a half, proceed to the transplant procedure.

You also need to prepare in advance flower pots for future "tenants". At the bottom of each, a small layer of expanded clay should be laid out (you can do with small pebbles) for better drainage from the nutritious coma. A small layer of sphagnum or charcoal should be laid out on the drain.

Then you should carefully divide the plants and plant them in the pots prepared for them. In separate containers, crops will grow better and bloom more luxuriantly than with a thickened planting, since they will be in more favorable conditions.

The size of the new container should be only slightly larger than the existing one

Any universal soil is suitable for transplanting, but it is still better to use a special soil mixture for roses or prepare it yourself at the rate of: 1 part garden land, 2 parts of humus, 2 parts of peat and 0.5 parts of river sand.

If the purchased rose is alone in a pot, or it is not possible to separate the bushes without damaging them dangerous for them, the plant should be transplanted by simple transshipment.

Indoor roses require proper care. By their nature, these are light-loving plants, and therefore those window sills that are illuminated by the sun for the longest possible time are best suited for them. But on hot days, it is still better to shade the plant slightly. Adequate lighting can be judged by seeing abundant growth and flowering. With a lack of light, the plant stretches, the leaves become pale in color. As a rule, in this case, the rose almost does not throw out the buds and is often sick. If there is not enough light, you need to make additional illumination. For this, ordinary fluorescent lamps are suitable.

The queen of flowers will respond generously to sufficient watering abundant flowering and its longevity. It must be carried out as the top layer of the earth dries up.

There is an easy way to determine the watering time. If, with light finger pressure on the ground in the pot, it remains dry, then it's time to water. If earth adheres to the finger, the moisture should be postponed. In no case should you go to extremes when watering. An excess of moisture contributes to soil acidification and the development of fungal diseases of the root system. Excessively dry soil does not allow the plant to receive adequate nutrition. As a result, it sheds leaves and grows poorly.

For a full-fledged, abundant growth and even more so, flowering miniature roses, like garden roses, must be fed regularly. To do this, you can use complex organic fertilizers with the addition of minerals and trace elements for flowering indoor plants... They must be brought in every week, according to the manufacturer's recommendations, throughout the entire flowering - from early spring to late autumn (March-November).

For full, abundant growth, and even more so for flowering, miniature roses, like garden roses, must be regularly fed

Pruning and reproduction

In November, when the sunny day has already significantly decreased, indoor roses should be prepared for the dormant period. For this, first of all, it is required to prune the bushes. First of all, weak and underdeveloped shoots are removed. Further - those branches that have grown deeper into the bush. On young shoots 3-4 buds are left, and on the main stem and the most developed branches - 2-3 buds. Leaves on shortened branches are not cut off.

Young shoots near a room rose will subsequently replace the old ones, and the bush will rejuvenate due to this.

Roses in flowerpots are propagated by cuttings. The best time for this - from May to August. Most suitable material for cutting cuttings - stems with a diameter of 2.5-3.5 cm. Cuttings are cut with 2-3 internodes.

The ends planting material dipped in a solution of Heteroauxin, placed in a glass filled with water about 4 cm, and placed in a well-lit place.

Cuttings take root within two weeks. An important detail: in the glass where the cuttings are placed, the water does not need to be changed, even if the walls are green. It is enough just to add liquid to the original volume.

From the moment a good root lobe grows, the cuttings should be transplanted into small pots and removed for 2 weeks in a place where they will not be exposed to direct sunlight.

With successful engraftment and if the room rose is taken care of, after 2 months a full-fledged plant will grow from the cuttings and the first flowering will occur.

Preparing for winter rest

From about mid-October, roses begin to feel discomfort, this becomes noticeable by the slowdown in the growth of new shoots, the appearance of underdeveloped buds. The foliage on the bush begins to turn yellow and fall off. Roses are not evergreens in tropical countries, they have their own biorhythm, similar in nature to the biorhythms of ordinary horticultural crops... The yellowing foliage on the bush lets the owner know that autumn has come for the queen of flowers and it is time for her to retire until spring.

To adequately prepare favorite plant by the dormant period, from the beginning of November, it is necessary to significantly reduce watering - up to 2 times a week. The bush is trimmed and placed in a cool place (on an insulated balcony, loggia or basement) until early February. It must be remembered that the temperature in the room where the roses "rest" should not fall below + 8 ° С. Optimal performance for winter storage indoor roses - + 12-16 ° С.

To maintain the humidity level necessary for this period, it is advisable to put the plant in a tray filled with expanded clay, slightly watered with water, and do not forget to periodically spray a clod of earth in a pot.

In the absence of time or desire to tinker with a rose in winter, it is enough to place the plant in a room with a temperature of 0 ° C.

Around the end of February, the flower will let you know about the onset of spring - the buds of the rose will begin to swell. This means that it is time to move it to its original place in the room. The watering rate must be gradually increased, stimulating the gradual return of the rose to the period of active flowering. Since in February the sunny day is not yet so long and there are often cloudy days, it is necessary to make additional illumination for the flower by installing a phytolamp.

Diseases and pests

Miniature roses are susceptible to the same fungal diseases as other indoor flowers. As a rule, infections affect either young or weakened indoor plants, those that received improper care.

The most common disease of most flowering indoor plants is a fungal disease called powdery mildew. Excessive feeding, poorly ventilated rooms, strong thickening of the plant itself - this is the environment in which this infection is actively developing. The appearance of white bloom on the leaves and stems of the rose is a signal for active actions to save the flower. It is necessary to remove the affected leaves, buds and shoots and treat the bush with Topaz or Fundazol.

Downy mildew is very similar to the disease described above. When a plant is damaged by this fungus white bloom appears only on back side sheet. From above, yellowish spots are visible on it. This fungal disease spreads quickly on wet leaves when sprinkled on a rose. Disease control is similar to the elimination of powdery mildew - it is pruning the affected leaves and stems and applying a fungicide.

The appearance on the leaves of the plant of red or bright orange spots with brown pustules indicates another often common disease - this is the so-called rust of roses. It affects indoor flowers that receive insufficient or improper care at home. Treatment of a diseased bush is to create proper conditions of detention. But first, you need to cut off all the affected areas and treat them with the appropriate preparations (Topsin, Oksikhom).

There are few people who would not like a rose. She is rightfully considered the queen of all flowers. Its sophisticated form and the most delicate aroma excite the soul of many women. A large number of different shades of the flower find their fans.

Today, a rose can be grown not only on your own personal plot... She also feels good in pots at home. There is only one difference. Indoor flower has a small size, unlike its relative, which grows in open ground... These are such mini-bushes that are not taller than 40 centimeters.

Rose loves sunlight... The seat on the south side windowsill will be the right choice but in summer period direct impact rays of the sun should be avoided so that the flower does not get sunburn. To do this, it is enough to slightly shade the window. V winter period additional artificial lighting will be required.

Rose can be susceptible to various diseases with poor temperature conditions... Therefore, in the spring-summer period, the temperature should not be higher than 22 degrees, and in the autumn-winter period, it should not exceed 12 degrees. High indoor humidity is good for a plant. If it is not there, then spraying the bush during heating season and in hot summer days will help the plant to feel normal. Humidification is carried out with settled water up to twice a day. Also, once a week, spraying a flower at home is replaced with a warm shower.

Indoor roses, after they bloom, do not require frequent watering. It is done when upper layer the soil dries well. Excessive moisture will harm the flower when it is dormant. But with the appearance of the first buds, watering should be increased. In the summer, the indoor rose loves to be watered well with settled water and only at room temperature.

For normal growth, the flower is planted in soil, the composition of which includes humus, turfy soil and sand. You can also purchase all-purpose soil from specialized stores. Feed the rose mineral fertilizers once a week, but only when it blooms. The rest of the time, twice a month is enough.

When you bought a room rose, then it must be acclimatized with you for up to two weeks. Only then can it be transplanted into a pot with dense walls. When transplanting, one should not forget about the expanded clay drainage layer. The flower is transferred to a new pot by transferring it with the ground. At a young age, the rose needs an annual transplant before flowering. Adult plant transplanted when required.

Certain rose varieties need pruning. It is held in the fall. To do this, shears remove all shoots that grow inward, as well as those that are dry or have a weak appearance. All other shoots are cut, leaving a third part in length with six eyes. In total, up to six healthy shoots remain. After cutting, the flower pot should be kept in a cool place, the temperature of which will not be higher than 14 degrees. When the first leaves appear, put the rose again on the windowsill on the sunny side.

For flower propagation, cuttings are used. Only professionals propagate the flower by seeds and grafts. For this purpose, cuttings are taken, which are cut with a sharp knife up to 15 centimeters in length. The best period for the reproduction of the flower it will be spring. The handle must have live leaves and up to four buds. We put our material prepared for breeding in boiled water and wait for the first roots to appear. This usually takes up to three weeks. When there are enough roots, we plant it in the ground with the addition of phytohormones.

Proper care of a room rose should be done. Her appearance will indicate the presence of diseases, if any. For example, yellowness occurs if the plant has undergone a fungal disease. In this case, it requires treatment with a fungicidal preparation.

Aphids, scale insects, spider mites can attack a rose. Pests disappear if the plant is treated on time special means... A brown color at the tips of the leaves of a rose will indicate too dry air and a lack of moisture. A warm shower and vigorous watering will help.

Indoor rose at proper care allows you to enjoy flowers practically all year round, but this is quite difficult to achieve, since for it you need to create special conditions... Caring for indoor roses is different from caring for other indoor plants.

Depending on the variety, the color of the leaves can vary from light to dark green, and their surface can be smooth, matte or wrinkled. Miniature roses, according to the classification, are representatives of one of the groups garden roses.

Your windowsill will be decorated with gorgeous flowers right up to the New Years.

Bourbon roses lose their foliage and release new twigs in March. Then they become overgrown with young greenery and gain strength. The only problem this plant can cause is rooting difficulties. Rose cuttings are best done in April, using a growth stimulant.

Miniature Rose varieties are famous for their abundant, almost continuous flowering and beautiful bush, always densely covered with graceful foliage. They, like garden roses, can have the most varied shape and color of flowers.

Miniature roses come from the Chinese rose "Minima", which was first brought to Europe from China in 1810. They soon disappeared from sight. All attention was paid to the emergence of new repair roses for that time.

The revival of mini-roses is associated with the emergence of two varieties: the dwarf small-flowered "Pompon de Paris" and that small rose "Rouletii", which ensured the existence of the miniature group in the future.

Dutch breeder Jean de Vinck began to use "Rouletii" in hybridization with the polyanthus rose "Gloria Mundi". Subsequently, the variety he bred received the commercial name "Tom Thumb" and in 1936 in the United States became the first patented miniature rose.

It should be borne in mind that if in the spring you make a short (up to 5-7 eyes) pruning, then the roses may form fewer flowers, but larger in size. If the pruning is made small (by 2-3 eyes), then the rose may have more flowers, but smaller. Cuttings of this variety take root rather poorly, even with a growth stimulant. It is better to transfer rooting to March-April, so that the roots of the Bourbon rose can develop well by the beginning of winter. Otherwise, the fragile rose will die. You will need feeding once a week or two, from March to September. Resistant to powdery mildew.

Tea roses(Rosa tea) form lush bushes up to 30 cm in height. Young shoots are brownish-red, leaves are large.
