Flower friends in the north, please pay attention to the cold resistance of rose.

To the north of Beijing, we should pay attention to the cold resistance of growing rose.

Today's flower friends are serious and cautious, and before they do so, they will ask: is this variety hardy? I grow roses in xx. I appreciate such flower friends.

-the cold tolerance of rose

Rose is generally resistant to a low temperature of-15 ℃, which is only a conservative value.

The cold resistance of rose is not only related to the air temperature, but also takes into account the external environment (flower friends who have been in both the north and the south know that dry and wet are two different worlds) and the state of the seedlings themselves (big seedlings are better tolerant to low temperatures, but young seedlings are less resistant to cold).

Summing up the planting feedback of flower friends all over the country over the years, it can be clear that in the south of Beijing, there is no need to consider the cold resistance of the rose, and the rose can survive the winter safely without cold protection measures.

The winter temperature in the north of Beijing is generally below-20 ℃. In order to prevent frostbite and air drying, it is recommended that all rose seedlings should be protected against cold.

PS: it is not recommended to buy new seedlings when the winter in the north is less than-15 ℃.

Cold protection measures for northern rose-

To grow rose, there is one more procedure in the north than in the south: cold prevention measures in winter.

The most terrible thing in the north is not only the low temperature, but also the strong wind. Air-dried flower seedlings are more than frozen to death every year, so even after the return of temperature in spring, we should not relax our vigilance and always do a good job of preventing wind and moisturizing.

Early planting is beneficial to improve the cold resistance of flower seedlings, and the cold resistance of flower seedlings planted in spring is obviously better than that in autumn and winter.

Winter northern heating indoor flower planting problems: high temperature, lack of light, rose exuberant growth but nutrient scarcity, easy to die.

-recommendation of cold-tolerant varieties-

This year, Sirius rose plans to plant some roses in the northeast to test cold resistance, mainly stores selling varieties, breeding varieties and self-bred varieties, probably next year to share the results with you!

As far as our experience is concerned, we have found that Austin rose varieties have good cold resistance, such as Mrs. Charlotte, Graham Thomas, Abrahamdabi.

In addition, with feedback from flower friends in Beijing, the cold tolerance of the old classic varieties common in the green belt (such as spectrum) is also very good.
