If you have an excessively acidic soil, then this indicator can be improved by adding dolomite flour to the soil.

Important! Before planting a rose, the site should be thoroughly cleaned from debris and weeds, otherwise it may impair the development and growth of the flower.
Before planting, the plant should be cut, the length of its roots and shoots should be in the range of 20-30 cm, this will help to intensify the growth of the rose. In order for the slices to heal faster and not be seriously infected by pathogens, they should be covered with garden pitch. The size of the landing pit should be strictly observed; it should be 50x50 cm square and about 70 cm deep. For drainage, the bottom is covered with small pebbles, and then a mixture of soil and humus is poured out, while the depth of the fossa should remain within 30 cm. A flower is planted in the prepared well and covered with 10 liters of water. In temperate climates, the best time for the process is the end of September - the first half of October or mid-May.

Location and lighting

Best of all, roses grow in well-lit areas of the garden, protected from the north wind and draft, but the flower bed should always be perfectly ventilated. The terrain should have a small slope, or be on a hill, this will provide an opportunity to protect the bush from excessive moisture. To avoid depletion of the flower, "Rosterium Hutersen" is not advised to plant closer than 50-60 cm to a wall with a deep foundation or next to other plants at a distance of less than 50 cm.

Important! "Rosa Utersen" It is strongly not recommended to grow in low, dark and excessively wet areas, in the shade of tree crowns, as this depresses the general development of the plant.

Temperature

The variety of roses "Rosarium Yutersen" prefers a subtropical or temperate climate with a sufficient number of warm days, only in this case it will be possible to grow the maximum possible number of flowers. But despite this, the species can grow and develop very well in the 5th zone of frost resistance, which means that the rose is able to withstand frosts around -30 ° С.

Humidity and watering

As mentioned above, this garden plant does not like excessive moisture, so watering should be gentle. Most experienced florists advise to carry out the procedure no more than 2 times a month. The rate of water for an average adult bush is about 10-12 liters per watering. But at the beginning of the growing season, the rose requires more frequent hydration, the plant is watered every 5-6 days. Dry autumn should take care of moisture charge, for this, if necessary, a well is dug near each bush and supplied with 20 liters of water.

Non-traditional methods of fertilizing with yeast, nettle, and liquid ammonia are increasingly used in households.

Soil and fertilizer

The ideal soil for this plant will be a wet, well-drained soil, with an acid-base reaction in the range of 5.6-7.3. That is why to control this indicator should acquire a special device. The height of the humus sedimentary layer should not be less than 30 cm, and the depth of groundwater should not exceed 1.5 m. As the initial substrate, the well should be filled with a mixture of manure, leaf soil, sand and peat in a ratio of 3: 2: 2: 1 . In the warm season, the soil should be periodically loosened to a depth of about 5-8 cm. Throughout the growing season, the plant is fed several times:

  • at the beginning of May - with the help of urea solution (30 g of powder per 10 liters of water);
  • in the second half of May - complex mineral fertilizer;
  • at the beginning of budding - phosphorus-containing fertilizers for flowering plants;
  • in the first half of July - with a solution of mullein;
  • in early September - phosphorus-potassium fertilizers.
Important! Fertilizers should be applied strictly according to the recommendations of the manufacturer, since excessive fertilizing can adversely affect the growth and flowering of the rose.

Breeding

The plant propagates in two ways - cutting and rooting cuttings. Both of them are equally effective, but they have a completely different procedure and execution scheme. Consider them further in more detail.

Cuttings

Cuttings are cut exclusively from the faded plant. To do this, use the shoots selected from the middle of the bush. The length of the cutting should be no more than 30 cm, while it should be at least 4 healthy buds. The cuttings are planted in a pot with a well-fertilized substrate. With timely loosening and watering in the spring will be able to grow the ideal seedlings for planting in a permanent place.

Rooting cuttings

Rooting cuttings carried out in early spring. Carefully selected shoots are pressed to the ground and their edges are dropped in, and then they are plentifully covered with earth. Together with the main plant, the layers are also watered and fed. The next spring it can be transplanted. To do this, at a height of 20-30 centimeters from the ground, the shoot is cut and planted using the above method.

Protection against diseases and pests

The main protection measure of this plant is regular treatment of the bush with fungicides throughout the growing season. In the spring, before the appearance of buds, a 0.4% solution of cuprum oxychloride is carried out with a full spraying of the whole hive. During the period of active vegetation, they use more benign substances; this may be an ash-soap solution or analogues.

Did you know? Fungicides have been used by man in their activities for more than one century. More in the narratives of Homer, dating from 1000-800 years BC. Oe., describes the process of fumigating cultivated varieties of plants with sulfur to combat rot, rust and blotches.
Spraying the rose with a 1% suspension of colloidal sulfur, which plays a tonic role for the plant organism, will be useful. For additional bacterial protection, it is recommended to add wood ash 2 times per season, in spring and autumn, with the calculation of 100 mg per 1 square meter. In the second half of September, the bush must be treated with a 3% solution of ferrous sulfate.

Pruning

During the period of active vegetation, the species "Rosary Yuthersen" is able to increase the length of its shoots up to 3 meters, so this plant necessarily needs sanitary pruning. Traditionally, the procedure begins in early May, at which time the roses are freed from frosted and weak shoots. The second time the flower is cut in mid-summer to remove its excessive length. Decorative pruning is carried out as necessary in the case of giving the bush the most acceptable form.

Preparing for the winter

Preparation of roses for winter begins in early September. At this stage, the plant removes all unopened buds, as well as young, old and damaged shoots. The main shoots are shortened by 10-15 cm and firmly connected with each other. Before the onset of frosts, the flower must be bent to the ground as much as possible in several stages so as not to damage it. For this, metal arcs, boards, etc. are used. When a frost occurs, the bush is covered with any covering material, spruce branches or sawdust can also be used. The base of the bush is covered with soil or a mixture of soil and peat.

Important! Between the shoots and the soil should be kept a small space, otherwise the rose will bloom and soak, which will lead to its death.

Difficulty growing

The main difficulties that both beginners and experienced growers can face when growing Rosterium Yuthersen climbing rose are:

  • delayed plant development: this process can have several reasons, often it is a consequence of a gross mistake when choosing a place to plant (wrong type of soil, insufficient amount of solar radiation, depressing water regime, etc.);
  • pest infestation of the bush: the process begins due to the lack of airing of the bush during excessive waterlogging of the soil;
  • decrease in the activity of flowering: the phenomenon is closely dependent on fertilizing, so the plant should be fed during the active growing season;
  • substandard planting material: cuttings or cuttings must have a healthy appearance, and on their surface there must be at least 3-4 viable buds.
