What is the matter with rose blind branches?

Blind branches appear in roses

Blind branches refer to branches that stop growing during the growth process of the plant, or branches that have no buds at the top of the plant. When the rose is growing, such branches will appear. The branches still look green, but they are no longer growing. In addition, the leaves on the blind branches of the rose will appear to be more numerous and denser than the leaves on the normally growing branches.

The reason why roses have blind branches is mostly due to poor growth. If the rose lacks fertilizer, it will lack nutrients, and the nutrients will be snatched away by other branches, causing the branches to stop growing. Of course, rose blind branches are also affected by insufficient light.

What to do with rose blind branches

There are two ways to deal with the problem of blind branches of roses. One is to do a good job of maintenance, and the other is to prune them in time.

Insufficient nutrition can cause blind branches in roses, so fertilization is a very important factor. When growing roses, you must supplement fertilizer in time. During the breeding period, sufficient light should be maintained.

If you find that the rose has blind branches, you should prune it in advance and cut off the blind branches.

When pruning, you only need to prune the blind branches, cut off the upper part of the branches, and be careful to retain the buds in the lower part. If there are no buds in the lower part of the rose or the growing buds are not strong enough, you can continue to cut downwards.

If roses have blind branches, I believe all flower lovers already know what to do.
