How to Care for the Roses You Bought
Today, we will introduce how to care for the roses you bought and teach you some simple rose maintenance methods. Let's proceed with the introduction by the editor.
Newly bought roses should not be repotted immediately as the plant has not fully adapted to the new growth environment, and repotting is not conducive to plant growth. You can care for them in a place with soft lighting for a period of time, wait for the roses to adapt to the new environment, then choose a suitable pot for repotting, and carry out normal management and maintenance. Let's talk about the specifics below.
1. Acclimate to the Environment
Roses bought recently should not be grown in the courtyard, it's best to care for them in a well-lit indoor area, keeping the temperature around 20°C. After 7-10 days, the plant will slowly adapt to the new environment.
2. Repotting
Most of the newly bought rose potted plants are in plastic pots, which are not conducive to the growth of the plant roots. You can change the pot and soil to promote better growth of the plant. Choose a pot of suitable size made of terra cotta, prepare new cultivation soil, carefully remove the rose plant from its pot without damaging the roots. Trim the rotting, decayed, and dried roots of the rose, let them dry, and then repot them, placing them in a shady area to recover for 7-10 days.
3. Watering
Rose potted plants are relatively drought-resistant. After repotting, you should control the water intake appropriately, avoiding waterlogging. Water when the soil is dry and water thoroughly. In the hot summer, you can water more, preferably in the morning and evening, not at noon. In winter, when the temperature is cold and the plant grows slowly, you can stop watering or water a small amount every 15-20 days.
4. Fertilizing
Roses like fertilizer. Appropriate top-dressing can promote more vigorous growth of the plant. In spring, you can fertilize every 15-20 days, using diluted cake fertilizer or decomposed manure water.
5. Temperature and Light
Roses enjoy sunlight and the most suitable growth temperature is 20-25°C. Too high or too low temperatures are not conducive to plant growth. You can take appropriate measures to cool down or keep warm. In the hot summer, provide shade and avoid direct sunlight; in winter, move the plant indoors for care, and you can move it outdoors during the day to receive sunlight.
