CARE AND GROWING TIPS OF ROSE PLANT


The rose does not give flowers like this for the entire year; all it takes is a little hard work and a little experience. If I tell you to put these things in a rose, it will give you many flowers, so it doesn’t happen. Better than this, may I explain to you how to take care of roses? What does it like, what does it not like, and how is its behavior? Only then you will be able to take care of it, and you will be able to get many flowers from it.

This article is in three parts. In the first part, I will tell you how to save roses from drying up. People are so concerned that it is not blooming; see if its health is worth it to bloom. You will never get healthy plants from the nursery. The nurserymen put Urea and DAP in it to take flowers from it so that it can be sold. So, in this first part, I will tell you how to care and how to save this plant. The plant should be healthy first; if it is healthy then it will automatically give flowers.

In the next part, I will tell you how to take care of it in extreme heat, and how do you get lots of flowers from it? And after that, I will tell you how to plant its cuttings, and how to propagate it.

Whenever you bring this plant from the nursery, the buds that it has, do not cut them. You will not cut the flower which is in bloom, but as soon as the flowers start to fade, you cut it off as soon as the flower starts to fade and just above the node. What is the reason behind this? When any plant is flowering, it gives all its energy to that flower. At that time the plant does not grow in any other part, and new leaves or new branches do not come in this stage. This flower has blossomed, so we will cut it. So from this place, as many as 2-3 branches will emerge and new growth will start. This flower will be pruned as soon as the flower becomes slightly dull.

You must have often seen that new plants come out from near the stem of the rose. There is nothing to be happy about in that the new plant has come. This is a weed; remove it as soon as possible. If it becomes a little bigger, then it is very difficult to remove it. Many people must have told you that it should be removed. I will tell you the reasons. The first reason is that it sucks all the energy and nutrients of the plant and the main plant is unable to bloom. Secondly, it is a weed and spreads too fast that you will not be able to hoe its soil, nor will you be able to repot because it has thorns. One more reason, it spreads so much that it blocks the air and sunlight of the soil. So, remove it. One more reason, it is at the bottom, when we give water, it absorbs a lot of moisture. So fungus, ants and insects keep coming. So you have to keep the soil of the rose very clean. Coriander is growing in some of my pots; apart from this, I keep the soil of all my pots very clean.

If the rose is not pruned at the right time and in the right way, then it becomes a forest. The plant will grow very big but will not flower. Hence, prune it properly. After cutting the plant, after plucking its flowers, at the same time, we have to give very good fertilizer after hoeing the soil. It would be better if you give compost. You can give any compost in it. If you do not have compost, give Mustard cake fertilizer. You will get it online for Rs.200-250. It is prepared in 1 day; how to make it, what are the precautions to be taken. So after tilling, you have to give strong manure. This is very important, listen carefully. When you cut the flower and fertilize it, it will flower again after about 20-25 days. After being pruned, the rose becomes silent. It slowly starts growth again, and then flowers again. There are some such flowers, like Hibiscus, Vinca, if their health is good, then you will get daily flowers in them. But Rose follows a pattern. Its graph continues like this. Over here, there were many flowers. The flowers started withering, and we harvested it. After harvesting, we fertilized, and after fertilization it produced buds. And it flowers in exactly 20-25 days, then it is at its peak. It withered again; we harvested, fertilized, in this way it follows the pattern. You have to keep in mind that after cutting, it will be a little silent. Don’t worry it’s not blooming. When you start seeing buds in it, at this stage, you have to give it a liquid tonic. If you give any of these tonics, then the size of the flowers will also be big and many flowers will also come. Some people’s plants die after bringing them from the nursery; why does this happen?

Before this, let me tell you that this is an autumn season plant. You will get it in the nursery from Oct till March. You will get indigenous roses throughout the year, but you will not get that healthy. If you want to buy roses, you can buy them from the nursery from October to March. Let me tell you lum sum that those who have fragrance, do not have colors in them. They are indigenous roses.But the hybrid ones, , will have beautiful colors. There are many varieties, but it is not fragrant. Some people also get scented ones, but I have not seen the smell in hybrids yet. You will find all these plants in the nursery; you can bring them home. When you bring this plant, then you will only plant it in an earthen pot, not in ceramic, plastic or cement. The pot should be of clay, and try to plant it in at least 12-inch pot. You can plant it in 8 inches too; the rose we get in the nursery, its soil is only as big there is not much soil, so I made 1 mistake. Planted 1 rose plant in 8 inch pot, at that time I did not have any other pot. After 3 years, I realized that now how do I shift it as it has so many thorns. It has become so big, even if I wear gloves, it bites me. Try to keep it in the biggest pot possible, and all my rose plants are in 12-inch pots. And if I don’t get a 12-inch pot then only I plant it in a 10-inch pot.

 

CARE AND GROWING TIPS OF ROSE PLANT 1-ROSE1

Rose needs very good soil. Actually rose needs soil, sunlight, water, pot and manure everything very well. I will tell you how to make its soil. What do I do to make its soil, which is normal soil found in our area? We have taken only 3 kg of soil, half of it we will take vermicompost. Will mix it well. Now main thing will come in it, Sand. Sand will also be taken as much as we have taken Compost. Rose likes sandy soil. If water stagnates near its roots, then it has problems. Now I have taken cocopeat, it does not allow the moisture to end. Keeps wet for a long time. We will take cocopeat 1/4th of the amount of sand we have taken, and will take a little bit of neem cake powder so that insects do not attack. Now, we will mix these mixture well. If you use bone meal, you can add that too. When you bring the plant from the nursery, do not keep it in the sun; if you keep it in the sun, this plant will get scorched. For 2 days, you have to keep it in the shade, but not in the dark area, there should be light but not direct sunlight. If it is fine for 2 days, if its leaves are fine, then you will keep it in the sun for 3 days. If its soil is drying in the middle, then give water, but for 3 days you have to keep it in the sun. If it is healthy for 5 days, do the repotting of your plant. If my rose plant is in clay or sandy soil, that means it is in brown soil, then I do not remove its soil. But if it is in red soil, then I remove its soil completely. Actually, this red soil is available in Pune and Goa side and it is very good, I have seen it myself. Plants grow very easily in red soil; no fertilizer is required in it. The soil is a bit sticky and it dries up and we don’t even know it. And as soon as it dries, the rose will die. That’s why I completely remove red soil. I will show you how I remove it. I brought a plant from the nursery 5 days back. I have taken a 10-inch pot because I could not find a 12-inch pot. It has red soil; just see how I shift it. First, I put something down. First of all, remove the polythene carefully. This red soil has to be removed slowly-slowly. Now it is not losing much soil, so what will I do, I will dip in water. There are 2 advantages of dipping in water. First – the soil will dissolve in water and secondly, the roots which have been exposed to air will also recover after getting water. As long as it is soaking in water, I prepare its pot. First of all, we will cover the hole and you can use newspaper without any tension. I have been using newspapers for years, there is nothing like this; it has ink and something will happen in the plant. Ink flows out of the pot through the bottom. It is very important to suppress it. Press in this way and set it. This Rose Fertilizer is from Plants Seeds Market, I have heard a lot of praise for it. I am using it, how is the growth, I will tell you. I am pressing it well so that it gets set. If the roots of the rose get set, then they should not be disturbed at all. Be it cutting or a plant. These flowers are about to wither, so I am cutting them. As I have told you in starting. Now I am giving water to it; I am not wasting red soil water. Will take the top water and remove the bottom soil giving water in installments and properly. Now at the same time, I am also washing it, a little bit of soil has accumulated, that too will be cleaned. Now it has to be kept in the shade again for 2 days. If you shift the rose plant in this way, it will never die after shifting.

Now the point is that how to water the Rose plant? If the soil around its roots dries up, then its leaves start turning yellow becomes dry and plant starts withering. And if the soil near the roots is very wet, then black spots start appearing in it. Black spots appear on the whole plant. There is a condition that the soil is wet, there is a condition that the soil is dry, there is a condition in between that there is little moisture. we have to check by hand the slight humidity condition, If it is seen that water is not given now, then this soil will dry up. at that stage you have to water it. Will give water slowly, if you fill the water at once on top of the pot So the stem will start rotting, if you do it once, or twice, it will rot but If this is done again and again it will rot.

 

CARE AND GROWING TIPS OF ROSE PLANT -Rose 2

How much Sun does it need? Give as much sunlight as you can to the Rose plant. 10 hrs, 8 hrs, 6 hrs. Some people do gardening in the balcony, where there is not much sunlight. But it should get at least 4 hours of sunlight. If you give sunlight for 2 hours, then the plant will be fine, but it does not flower much.

Pest control: By the way, it has thorns, so big insects will not attack. But insects like aphids, mealy bugs and brown pests will attack on it. So, what you have to do, if it is infected then spray Neem oil. Even if there are no insects, then also you have to give the solution of neem leaves to this plant.

These points I have told you are very important; it should be clear in your mind that in 1st year, like you have brought plant in Oct. After bringing it in October, it remained fine till March. Summer starts from March, it should survive in summers. Once it gets rainwater, it becomes ready for flowering. After that when October comes, it will flower very well. a whole year, you don’t have to expect it You don’t have to think that my plant is week by looking at other’s rose plants. Theirs is a very old plant, and ours is new. Take care of the new plant. We get this plant week only from the nursery; we plant parents make it healthy. And one more thing, If you travel a lot, or are working, and cannot care that much, So don’t bring a rose plant, there are some plants which do not need that much care. You can take Bougainvillea, Vinca, ZZ plant, there are some plants that do not need such care, they don’t need much water, can take Caladiums also, but Rose needs complete care.
