Gardening Caring For Roses
July 3, 2009 | Leave a Comment
Under planting your roses with spring flowering bulbs, adds color and beauty to your flower beds when the roses don't look their best. Give your roses lots of room to grow to their natural growth habit and allow for good air circulation. Roses do prefer organically rich soil with good drainage and no major obstructions such as tree roots or large rocks. Roses also need beds of well-drained sandy clay-loam soil with a pH between 6.5 to 7.5 (slightly acidic to slightly alkaline.) Put a few shovels of well-composted horse or cow manure around your roses after planting, and every spring, and your roses will really thrive. Add a 2 inch layer of mulch and watch the roses bloom with abundance. And here is another good rose gardening advice that isvery useful: Sprinkle some Epsom Salt around the base of your roses and scratch it into the soil. Follow by deep watering directly to the base of the rose. Bare root roses must be planted while they are still dormant. They should be soaked in muddy tepid water for up to 12 hours, overnight is good, before planting. Climbing roses should be planted a foot from their supports to allow for good air circulation. Canes on climbing roses should be tied horizontally in order to produce more flowers, which will sprout vertically along the horizontally growing canes. Climbing roses should not be pruned for the 2 years. They need time to build flowering canes so they can produce lots of blooms. Mulching add a two to four inch layer of organic mulch wood chips, grass clippings, compost, straw, pine needles, or leaves around the base of each rose bush. Just remember: Easy does it when it comes to mulching. For more information on gardening go to www.Teegoes.org
