Recently, I have been writing about the knowledge of rose care for two months, but today a rose enthusiast asked this question:
Are roses perennial?
Previously, some rose enthusiasts also asked when buying rose seedlings:
Will it bloom this year?
These seemingly non-questions actually reflect the level of understanding of roses among our新手 enthusiasts, which can be said to be really clueless.
Perhaps this is greatly related to the fact that modern people generally live in big cities and have less contact with the natural environment.
As the saying goes: "If you haven't eaten pork, have you at least seen a pig running?"
But the reality now is: many people have eaten pork, but few have actually seen pigs running! The progress of the times has led to a gap in our cognition.
Just like many people buy fresh-cut roses from flower shops, but they do not know when roses bloom and whether they are perennial.
Today, I will briefly introduce the characteristics of roses.
Most of the roses cultivated in modern households are European roses, also known as欧月. The roses commonly seen in rural areas in the past were our native Chinese roses, also known as 月月红.
Roses are evergreen or semi-evergreen low shrubs. They can bloom in warm places all year round, and in frost regions, they usually shed leaves and rest in winter, blooming in spring, summer, and autumn.
What size rose seedling can bloom?
Many rose enthusiasts who have just started growing roses do not know what size rose seedling can bloom. In fact, this is a false proposition!
The characteristic of roses is that when there is sufficient fertilizer and water, new buds will produce flower buds. Therefore, even if it is a seedling that has just been cut and survived, it can bloom as long as it has enough fertilizer and water and grows new buds.
Of course, the quality of the flowers will definitely be different from that of mature large seedlings. What is mentioned here is a characteristic of rose blooming.
Generally speaking, no matter what size seedling you buy, as long as it is a variety that blooms all year round, it can bloom in the same year with normal care.
But if it is a single-season variety, if you miss the spring blooming period, you will have to wait another year.
It should be noted that a rose seedling is not necessarily better the taller it is!
There are always rose enthusiasts who pay more attention to the height of rose seedlings. They say that roses like to be pruned and need to be cut continuously to bloom well. Therefore, we usually prune roses after flowering and during the dormant period to promote the production of new branches and then produce flower buds and bloom.
It can be seen that choosing a strong rose seedling is more reliable than choosing a tall one! Follow the public account: Garden (ilanyao) to exchange flower cultivation techniques together.
The above sharing of the specific introduction of the three things you must know if you want to grow good roses, I hope everyone likes it!
