Affected foliage must be burned in the fall.

Insecticidal preparations such as Actellik and Fufanon will help against insects such as aphids, thrips or mites. The main thing is to carefully follow the standards specified in the instructions for use.

Rose lovers who do not have the time or desire to tinker a lot with their pets should definitely take a closer look at the varieties of Canadian selection. Hardy and unpretentious flowers will delight with their beauty throughout the whole summer, without causing unnecessary trouble.

Planting and caring for park roses in the Moscow region

Despite the changeable weather in the Moscow region, roses must be planted at a certain time. Moreover, subsequent care is practically no different from growing this garden plant in other regions. You just need to follow some rules.

Landing dates

In order for the rose bush to take root and begin to develop, it is necessary to choose the right planting time. The most favorable time is considered to be the end of spring, when the threat of frost has completely passed. In the Moscow region, this period falls in mid-May. It is also possible to plant seedlings in the fall, but no later than six weeks before the onset of cold weather. Such terms will allow the root system to better take root in the new place and grow stronger.

Requirements for place and soil

How well it will take root also depends on the correct choice of place for the rose. This shrub does not like through winds and does not tolerate stagnant water. Therefore, you should choose a site on a hill near large trees or buildings.

Attention! The “lace” shadow from the tree crowns will provide a more saturated color to the flowers, as they will fade less in the sun.

The soil must be fertile. If there are not enough nutrients in it, then you need to pre-prepare the soil. To do this, mix the soil with a bucket of clay, two buckets of compost, as well as two glasses of bone meal and wood ash. It is advisable to add half a glass of complex mineral fertilizers and superphosphate to the resulting mixture. It is prepared immediately before planting, using soil pulled from the hole.

How to plant correctly

The landing algorithm is quite simple:

  1. The rose seedling is carefully inspected, removing weak and rotten branches of the roots.
  2. Expanded clay is placed at the bottom of a hole previously dug to a size of 50 by 50 cm. It is necessary to create a drainage layer. A sand cushion is poured on top.
  3. Lower the seedling into the hole and straighten the roots. And so that they do not come into contact with the mixed fertilizers in the soil, they are also sprinkled with sand on top.
  4. Before pouring the soil mixture, be sure to ensure that the grafting site is located 5-7 cm below ground level, this will allow the seedling to survive the first winter more easily.
  5. Then fill the soil, compact it and water it abundantly.

Aftercare

Care after planting consists of timely watering. It is carried out in 1-2 days depending on the weather. On cloudy days, the amount of watering can be reduced.

The rose does not need fertilizing for the first 2-3 years, but in the fourth year of life it is recommended to apply fertilizers twice a season (spring and autumn).


Pruning and covering of park roses will depend entirely on the characteristics of the variety.

How to properly care

Canadian roses are not particularly demanding of care and are not very capricious, but in order for the plant to bloom beautifully and gracefully, it is best to follow these steps:

  • Eliminate dead, frozen, diseased shoots in early spring and late fall.
  • Fertilizing with nitrogen fertilizers in the spring, and in the summer with phosphorus-potassium fertilizers, when the first flowering period ends.
  • In hot and particularly dry times, the plant needs abundant watering, as well as special fertilizing. At other times of the year, moderate fertilizer should be applied, strictly at the root of the plant.
  • Carefully ensure that the soil becomes more moist.
  • Pruning in spring should be done once every few years.
