Why should the buds of Chinese roses be pruned?
Let's take a look at my Chinese rose. I pruned the buds of this rose a while ago, right? If you have been following me, you also know why I did the bud pruning, because its buds wilted after they bloomed.
The reason for the wilting is that it was newly transplanted, and its root system has not fully recovered yet, so its absorption capacity is weak. Therefore, we must cut its buds, so that after its root system has grown well, it will have a strong water absorption capacity and sufficient nutrients, which means it won't have any problems blooming.
Now it has been about 20 days, to be honest, I cut the buds rather carelessly at the time, and some buds were left behind. Then, looking at the Chinese rose behind me now, it has started to bloom again, and the current state of blooming is quite good.
Let's take a look together. Most of the flowers on the main branch are blooming now, and these two have already opened. In the past, the petals of these two flowers would have wilted by now, but now they look quite good, with good luster and firmness, right? This shows that my pruning was quite effective.
This flower is in a very good state, right? The petals inside look very beautiful, and these buds are very normal. Because I pinched the buds at the time, its apical dominance was removed, and it has now started to grow branches. As long as these branches have enough nutrients, they will bloom.
The above is the knowledge of why the buds of Chinese roses should be pruned. I hope this article can bring you some help!
