A dry, warm climate will be preferred. So the plant will avoid diseases associated with damp weather.

In what form is the landing

Use ready-made seedlings. Hybrid tea roses are not very willing to propagate by seeds and cuttings. Still, these methods are used.

What time to plant

It is customary to place seedlings on the site in the spring. The bush will have time to take root in the place chosen for it, and also safely move to a dormant period. You need to make sure that the frost is over. The procedure can be carried out in the fall, from late October to early October. The bush should take root before frost.

Location selection

The site is chosen to be lit to the maximum, because the variety loves the sun. Requires a fence against drafts, wind. Florists note that this rose feels good in greenhouses, where it is grown for bouquets.

How to prepare the soil and flower for planting

The soil should be with an acidity of 5.6 to 7.3. To increase the indicator, manure or peat is added. To reduce it, you need to add ash or lime. Clay soil requires the addition of sand, humus and peat. Good permeability and drainage are necessary so that the liquid does not stagnate in the root system, otherwise the plant may die. They also pay attention to how the groundwater is deposited. If not lower than 1 m, the rose is threatened by black spot.

Planting procedure step by step

The placement of a rose on the site occurs in the following stages:

• They dig a hole 50 cm deep.
• At the bottom there is a 10 cm drainage: stone, crushed stone.
• Organic fertilizers and garden soil are introduced.

Plant care

The bush needs regular soil moistening, loosening, weeding. You also need to fertilize and protect from pests. Pruning, mulching are required.

Watering rules and humidity

The soil under the bush should be sufficiently moistened. Before watering, the soil must dry out to prevent moisture stagnation. Abundance and regularity when watering are important. Drying of the soil should not be allowed, especially in hot weather. Each bush requires 20 liters of water. The weather is taken into account, the minimum frequency is 2 times a week. Watering roses is stopped in the fall.

Top dressing and soil quality

The soil should be loose, permeable to water and air, as well as nutritious, for which it is fertilized. The plant responds very well to feeding. The combination of organic and mineral fertilizers improves flowering. In the spring, the bush is given nitrogen, in the summer - potassium and phosphorus. Biohumus and humus are used as organic matter at any time.

Pruning and replanting

Rose bushes are not easy to prune. But the plant must receive an incentive for intensive development. In this case, the form becomes decorative. By removing dead and old stems, the grower directs nutrients to the young branches. Due to oxygen saturation, immunity improves.

If it is necessary to transplant, the plant quickly adapts to another place, thanks to its regenerative ability. Therefore, you can transfer a flower if the previous arrangement was accompanied by diseases, poor development.

Wintering features

At the winter temperature specified in the description of -23 degrees of frost, the plant can not be covered for the winter. If the region has a harsher climate, action must be taken. Cold season tolerance is observed with sufficient snow cover.

Cuttings are selected for propagation at the end of the first wave of flowering, as well as when pruning. In this case, the stems must be strong. It should be planted immediately in soil or container, but the survival rate will be worse.

Diseases, pests, methods of control

Sufficient resistance to diseases is manifested subject to the rules of agricultural technology and a well-chosen place of growth. Powdery mildew requires prophylaxis so that there are fewer care worries. Dangerous pests are bronzes. These are bugs that spoil the appearance of the plant.
