Contrary to popular belief, the rose is not a tender and fragile plant. It is important to choose the right types for the climate and geographical features of the site. And then each planting of cuttings of roses in the future will be happy with 100% survival. In the case of a correct selection of a plant variety, it is easy to see that this beautiful flower is not at all picky in care, it tolerates frosty and snowy winters remarkably, has not only a steady but long flowering, which lasts for several months.

Planting roses with cuttings in spring is carried out from late May to early June. It is this small gap that is the most favorable moment for the reproduction of the plant. Very well rooted cuttings of an overwhelming number of varieties of roses, belonging to the groups of climbing, floribunda, polyanthus, miniature and rare tea-hybrid. Badly take root only seedlings of park roses.

Planting cuttings of roses is the simplest and most labor-consuming way to reproduce this beautiful, elegant plant. The main thing here is to select competently the planting material. A cut is called a part of the escape with at least two internodes. Necessarily, the lower cut is made with a sharp razor - obliquely along the diagonal of the trunk. It is located a few millimeters under the kidney. The upper cut can be made transverse, it will be located above the second kidney by 5 millimeters. The lower leaves are cut completely, and the uppermost - only half.

In order for the planting of the cuttings of roses to pass successfully and the seedling is entrenched, preliminary processing of the planting material is necessary. It consists in soaking the lower ends of the cuttings in a solution of heteroauxin for 12-14 hours. After processing, they are placed in the sand obliquely, the distance between the plants should be at least 5 cm, the depth of planting - 2 cm. Next, the greenhouses are covered with frames and necessarily pritenyayut.

Of course, planting roses with cuttings does not end there, for another two weeks the seedlings are sprayed very often - up to 5 times a day. The optimal temperature for rooting is from 20 to 22 degrees, so in hot weather, the greenhouses are slightly opened for 5-10 cm and air. Humidity of air should not be below 90%. During these two weeks the cuttings form a callus, and after a while some more roots. A month later, the number of sprayings is reduced to 2 per day. Rooted seedlings remain in the greenhouse for the winter.

Next year, planting of cuttings of roses in the open ground. The best time - the beginning of June, is especially fortunate, if on the street there will be cloudy weather at the same time. Saplings beforehand are carefully spilled with water. Transplant roses together with a clod of earth, in no way stripping the roots. 12 days after planting, they are fertilized with organic fertilizers, as a rule, infusion of mullein with ammonium nitrate. When watering young seedlings of roses, it is necessary to focus on weather conditions. To water it is necessary either in the early morning, or in the evening.
