Growth habits of roses in potsRoses prefer places with plenty of sunlight and fertile soil and are generally planted in the ground, which is conducive to the growth of their root system and allows them to grow more luxuriantly. Their roots are relatively cold-resistant and can withstand temperatures as low as minus 20°C. Light requirements: Roses are light-loving plants with strict requirements for light. Indoor potted plants need to be guaranteed to receive sufficient light every day. During the growing season, the light must not be less than 8 hours a day. If the light is insufficient, it will cause excessive growth without flowering. Too much direct sunlight is also not good for the growth and development of roses, and can easily cause sunburn on the leaves. How to grow roses in potsThe suitable growth temperature for roses is between 12 and 28 degrees. The temperature for wintering needs to be above 5 degrees. It needs more sunlight during the growth period, with more than 4 hours of light a day. It cannot be placed under the light for a long time. Compound fertilizer can be applied at ordinary times, in small amounts each time. When the soil is dry, water it thoroughly once. Watering potted roses: Potted roses have shallow roots and are not drought-tolerant and are also afraid of waterlogging. When watering, you should follow the principle of not watering unless the soil is dry, and watering thoroughly when you do. The specific number of waterings needs to be determined according to the weather. Water once every other day in the dry season, and reduce the number of waterings in the rainy season. Also pay attention to drainage, and control water before and after flowering. It is best not to spray water to avoid damaging the leaves and flowers. Fertilizing roses in pots: Roses are best fertilized with nitrogen fertilizer, phosphorus fertilizer, potassium fertilizer, calcium fertilizer, magnesium fertilizer, zinc fertilizer, boron fertilizer and other trace element fertilizers. Among them, the demand for nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers is relatively large. Generally, top dressing is required 3-4 times a year. During the budding period, compound fertilizer should be applied to promote rapid growth of plant branches and leaves. During the flowering period, quick-acting fertilizer should be applied to promote yield and improve the quality of flowers. Potted rose pruning: Potted roses need to be pruned in spring. Weak branches, duplicate branches and diseased branches can be cut off to promote the growth of new branches. The withered flowers need to be pruned after the flowering period, otherwise they will not only be unsightly, but will also continue to consume nutrients and be detrimental to the germination of new buds. Excess side buds should also be cut off, leaving only one. Precautions for potted rose careRoses are easily susceptible to diseases and pests during potted maintenance, so timely prevention is necessary. They need to be pruned in time during the growth period, and the withered flowers need to be cut off after flowering. This can reduce the loss of nutrients and enhance the ornamental value of the plant. |
