What to do if the potted rose wilts? Take these four points to enjoy the flowers with peace of mind...
Have you ever encountered a new potted rose that wilts in just one day? A flower friend asked such a question yesterday. In the summer flower market, there's not much to buy in the potted chrysanthemum, but the small potted roses are really tempting.
These small potted roses not only have green leaves, but also look like they are about to bloom, making it hard not to take them home. However, before buying, you should first understand the maintenance methods for these small potted roses to avoid the phenomenon of the roses wilting after arriving home.
Maintenance methods for small potted roses
That small potted roses can still grow well in summer, it can be imagined that they must have been cultivated in a greenhouse. As for whether they are hormone-treated, we won't discuss that. At least they were cultivated in a greenhouse environment, so we need to pay special attention to four points after taking them home.
1. Don't rush to repot
The small potted roses are actually mini chrysanthemums, so you can treat them as such. The difference is that their growing environment is very comfortable.
What to do if the potted rose wilts?
So after bringing it home, don't rush to repot, this is very important. Don't think that the plastic pot is ugly and want to change it as soon as possible. These small roses were very comfortable in their previous growing environment. Now that they are in a home environment, they are already very unaccustomed to the environment. If you change the pot, the root system will be damaged and it will be even harder to raise. If the original pot is not attractive, you can put a nice pot outside first. It's not too late to change the pot after the flowers fade.
2. Don't expose to direct sunlight
These small potted roses were all cultivated in greenhouses and had strict control over lighting. After taking them home, don't put them in direct sunlight immediately, otherwise, the leaves will be scorched and the flowers will wilt.
Because the root systems of these potted plants are very fragile, and the lighting in their previous growing environment was very gentle, that's why the leaves are so tender. Placing them in direct sunlight will cause the roots to absorb water too slowly and the tender leaves won't be able to withstand the scorching sun, leading to immediate wilting.
The correct approach is to first place them in a scattered light or soft light area and gradually increase the lighting, allowing the small roses to adapt.
