Watering

For normal development and long-blooming roses need abundant and regular watering. After the spring planting roses, watering produce in 8-10 days. Especially need watering during the period of strong growth and the formation of buds, as well as after the summer pruning. Since the emergence of buds, as well as after pruning roses watered every 10 - 12 days, and in dry and hot summer - every 5-8 days. |

Watering should be done in an overlap of pre-prepared hole or annular grooves, which are made at a distance of 20-25 cm from the trunk planted plants. After irrigation furrows zaravnivayut. It is desirable that when irrigation water does not get on the leaves of roses.

Each watering should soak the soil so that moisture penetrated deeper root distribution. In the southern regions, with watering roses give not less than a bucket of water on the plant. Before the onset of the dry period produce copious irrigation - up to two gallons per plant, and the old roses and climbers silnorastuschim yield of 4-5 buckets, and then mulching the soil.

On the second day after irrigation (or rain) is sure to loosen the soil in the holes around the roses, which contributes to the conservation of moisture in the pochze and better access of air to the roots.

To keep moisture in summer is very useful to mulching, that is, cover the surface of loosened soil in the holes with a continuous layer (10-12 cm tolschniy) straw manure, sawdust, peat crumbs, dry grass, etc.

Before watering the mulch is removed, and after watering and loosening the surface hole is closed again mulch. In the autumn mulch with sealed digging into the soil.
