Ventilation: often to its loose soil work, but do not loose soil can not hurt the roots, but also to ensure the ventilation of the environment.

Humidity: If the environment is relatively dry, you can spray a small amount of water on the flowers and leaves, and the atomization is also serious, the better, to increase the humidity of the air.

Fertilization: 15 days or so for a fertilization, preferably liquid fertilizer. Fertilization should be applied once before flowering, germination and dormancy.

How to water roses?

Watering can keep the soil in a suitable state for a long time, the humidity is appropriate, it cannot be too wet, and it cannot be accumulated. Watering also varies according to seasonal changes:

Spring water demand becomes larger, to constantly increase the amount of water, plants in the growth period, need a lot of water, can be watered once a day in the morning and evening;

Summer temperature is higher, water evaporation is also faster, so also increase the amount of watering, the same as spring, watering time can be carried out early and late;

Winter plants are dormant, as long as the soil is kept moist.

Dormancy pruning, mainly from the base to cut off dead branches, pest branches, cross branches, thin branches and post-autumn germination of young branches. The knife and scissors used for pruning should be sharp and smooth to prevent branches from splitting. To select axillary buds growing outward, the incision should be located about 0.5 cm above the axillary bud and inclined inward at an angle of 45°. This pruning allows the branches to spread evenly and keeps the plant airy and light-transmitting.

Potted annual seedlings more than 30 cm high cut off about 2/3, less than 30 cm cut off about 1/2, too small plants can not be pruned.

Common diseases and insect pests of rose flower and their control methods

It mainly appears on the leaves. Older people will say that insects grow on the leaves, which is a healthy performance, representing plants and no pesticides, but one is healthy, and many scarabs are disasters.

Scarabs mainly harm roots, leaves, buds and other parts, seriously affecting flower yield and quality.

Control methods: light trap, willow trap, oscillation kill and so on.

When the damage is serious, 2.5% deltamethrin 2000~3000 times solution can be sprayed, the effect is better, but must not be sprayed at flowering.

When a small number of aphids are found, they can be washed with clean water, which not only eliminates aphids, but also clarifies leaves, improves ornamental value and promotes respiration of leaf surfaces. When a large number of aphids are found, isolate the plants immediately and spray fungicides.
