Preparation of roses for winter

In article it is in detail told about how to make ready for the winter roses, all ways of their shelter are described.

Darlings from cultivated flowers – roses, they tre­buyut attention and care not only in flowering, but also during winter rest. A set of questions vozni­kaet at amateur flower growers by preparation of garden roses for the wintering period. Whether it is necessary to close bushes on zi­mu and what material? Whether to do to a scrap before a ziyomovka? Whether there are the preparations helping flowers it is better to winter?

In the winter the rose can be lost not so much from frosts, how many from neprayovilny leaving in the summer and illiterate preparation for a dormant period. A rose – dosyotatochno the frost-resistant crop, capable to transfer a serious poniyozheniye of temperature. In climatic conditions of Ukraine of a rose are capable zimo­vat without difficult frame and film shelters if during spring letne­go the period leaving was competent and reguyolyarny, and at approach of the first za­morozkov simple technical events were held.

To think of successful wintering it is necessary already from the middle of summer. Approximately with nacha­la August it is necessary to stop podko­rmki nitric fertilizers. Excess of nitrogen affects a condition vetyovy, they don’t manage to grow ripe and even at small frosts perish. From the second half of summer and in an early autumn in podkormkax should preobla­dat phosphoric and potash an udobreyoniya. These elements well skazyvayut­sya on high-quality ripening of a bush and especially a bark. She becomes plotyony, capable to suffer low temperatures and thus not rastreski­vatsya.

At competent leaving flowering of roses proceeds to the frosts, and at some grades a flower are capable to stand at a minus 5 degrees. To Poetoyom autumn to a scrap of bushes to do neyozhelatelno, except for nebolyyoshy adjustments.

After approach steady xo­lodov it is possible to cut off all inflorescences and zavyazi. If you after all solved ukry­vat a bush a film, roofing material or another not passing air mayoterialy, it is necessary to cut off all leaves which have remained on a bush. These are meyoropriyaty will exclude a superfluous ispayoreniye of moisture a plant under shelter as in the winter roots cease poglo­shhat moisture from the soil. Besides, not quite ripe young leaves under plotyony shelter become the center of a rasprostyoraneniye of mushroom diseases. Not po­meshaet at such way of shelter ob­rabotat a bush and the soil under it 5 %-nym solution of an iron vitriol for destruction of causative agents of mushroom diseases.

But it is possible to manage and without a film as ukryvny material. With the middle of September begin preparation soputyostvuyushchy materia­lov which pomo­gut to winter to your roses. Peyosok, garden zem­lya, straw, coniferous fir twigs, a morozoyoustoychivy rope – all this ponado­bitsya by preparation of roses for winter.

Roses of tea and hybrid group, floribunda, a grandiflor, and also park connect a rope, stara­yas to form cone bushes. It will exclude an oblamyvaniye of branches under tya­zhestyu snow at plentiful snowfall. Carrying out this procedure, it is possible sre­zat young not quite ripe branches. Pletistye with thin, flexible branches can be bent down grades to the earth. But if the pletisty rose is strengthened on an areca, a pergola or another garden for­me, to remove escapes it is not necessary. Warm the bottom circle of a bush to height 30-50 see.

At the first frosts inside kus­tov nasypte 25-35 see Earth it is necessary to bring a hillock of sand or the sadoyovy earth in height in advance, instead of to take from under bushes, thereby baring the top roots. The soil under roses it is possible za­mulchirovat rezany straw a layer of 20-40 cm, having warmed the bottom level kus­ta. Especially it is actual for priviyoty saplings as they have the most uyazyovimy place during frosts – an inoculation point. Instead of straw it is possible is­polzovat fir twigs. But straw is more favorable for several reasons. Vesyona, after a snow convergence, it can be not cleaned from under bushes. Under a moisture vozdeyyostviye straw will settle and nach­netsya rotting process at which a certain quantity of heat will be allocated. The soil temperature under a bush on some degrees will be higher, than air, and under soloyomy in a large quantity earthworms, well vliyayuyoshchy soils on a condition will be got.

At shelter of roses of groups of a patio, pochvopokrovny, tiny, poliantovy, and also standard it is necessary to work more. Tiny roses and dwarfish grades of other groups ukry­vayut boxes and from above obkladyvayut straw. Silnoroslye grades pochvopokrovny, poliantovy and roses of a patio cover by the same principle, as tea and hybrid, but thus zemlyayony the hill in a bush should be soyoizmery on height with all rasteniyoy. Here too use straw or fir twigs.

The most labor-consuming by preparation for wintering standard roses. If a shiyopovnik on whom the rose, dosyotatochno flexible is imparted, the tree can be bent down to the earth and to warm an inoculation place, having covered it with earth and oblo­zhiv straw or fir twigs. If a trunk of a standard rose nonflexible, round a bush it is necessary to do a sooruyozheniye in the form of a pyramid. For this purpose po­nadobyatsya wooden or metalliyochesky stakes on 50-70 cm are longer, than height of a standard rose. Them hammer into the earth round a rose and connect proyovoloky, trying to draw the top ends densely. Then tie with a wide tape of a film, and internal space fill with straw. The design should be steady that didn’t fall at strong flaws, and the film shouldn’t pass moisture.

With arrival of the first warm vesenyony days of a rose waken. Kidneys start to wake up, therefore an ukryyotiya it is necessary to remove. It do in nes­kolko stages. A signal for okonchayotelny removal of protective layers pos­luzhit growth of escapes.

All works are better for carrying out vecheyory or in cloudy day that too bright sun didn’t burn neyookrepshy kidneys and sprouts. Earth, nayosypanny a cone in a bush, smy­vayut, the ropes which are pulling together a bush, sre­zayut also carry out to a scrap. If roses were covered by an air-tight material, after all meropriyayotiya it is necessary to carry out opryskivayony 5 %-nym solution iron ku­porosa for destruction of causative agents of mushroom diseases.
