By mastering the key points of caring for potted Chinese roses, the flowers will be large and colorful, blooming month after month
Chinese roses are plants with strong adaptability, a large number of flowers, a long blooming period, and very easy to care for. The reason why they are called Chinese roses is that they can bloom every month, and their cold resistance in the north is also very strong. It can easily survive the winter in the ground. Their maintenance is extremely simple. In the process of caring for them, we just need to place them in a place with plenty of sunlight, make sure the potting soil does not lack water, water thoroughly when the soil is half-dry, and regularly supplement some fertilizer to make them grow very well. Many gardening enthusiasts often encounter a problem when growing Chinese roses: the plants can grow normally without any issues, but the flowers bloom very small and in limited quantity. In fact, we know that Chinese roses are easy to care for, but improper management can lead to small and few flowers.
When growing Chinese roses, it is essential to use good quality soil to prevent root rot and reduce the occurrence of diseases and pests. As mentioned before, when the potting soil is half-dry, water it promptly and place it in a well-ventilated area for maintenance. Good ventilation can prevent pest infestations and issues like rotting leaves and roots. With these measures, we can keep the plant alive. However, to make it bloom, it's important to choose fertilizers with high phosphorus and potassium content, as well as other elements. Supplementing with this type of fertilizer 2-3 times a month can ensure continuous growth and blooming. Alternatively, using a balanced multi-element fertilizer can also achieve the same effect.
However, as it grows, it continuously produces branches and lateral buds, which, when they reach a certain height, develop flower buds. Pruning is essential as it directly affects the quantity and quality of the flowers. When the temperature is high, the branches produced are weak. If flowers develop from the top of these weak branches, they will be much smaller. Therefore, after each bloom, we should promptly prune the branches, cutting off all the small ones and shortening the long, thick ones, retaining only the robust ones. This allows the robust branches to receive sufficient nutrients, and after the pruning wounds heal, they will quickly produce lateral buds, which will grow robust due to the abundant nutrients provided by the thick branches.
If you do not prune, the branches will be disorderly, with both thick and thin ones, resulting in small flowers. Therefore, pruning is crucial in the maintenance of Chinese roses, as it allows for larger and more flowers. Pruning is very important, but it is also necessary to fertilize promptly. Regardless of the season, as long as the plant grows normally, fertilizing cannot stop. Use multi-element fertilizers or those with high phosphorus and potassium content. Never use pure nitrogen fertilizers, as they promote the growth of branches and leaves, making the branches very weak. Choose fertilizers with high phosphorus and potassium content and no lack of other elements. Supplementing with this type of fertilizer 2-3 times a month will ensure sufficient nutrients and adequate phosphorus and potassium, leading to robust branches and subsequent flowering.
This is how to care for Chinese roses. If you grow them for a long time and the potting soil lacks nutrients, they can still grow, but the growth will be weak, and the flowers will be few and small. By pruning and supplementing with sufficient fertilizers, ensuring the potting soil does not lack water, and placing the plant in direct sunlight, the branches will grow stronger without becoming spindly. If these conditions are met, the flowers will be large. Look at your maintenance process and see what is missing that leads to small and few flowers.
