Let the flowers bloom naturally and fail naturally? This is the wrong thing to do.

Some flower lovers may be lazy, or because they adhere to the principle of natural beauty, or because they feel that they do not have the heart to hurt a penny of the rose, they let the plant grow at will, blossom naturally, and then wither naturally, except that it is usually watered on time and on demand. Do not do any pruning of the plant.

In fact, this kind of love-loving practice not only does not play the role of love, on the contrary, it will drag down the growth of the rose, and then you may find out why the same style rose of the old Wang family next door can open several rounds a year, while your family's one round is gone. The reason is that you did not prune the plant in time and properly.

Pruning after the flowering of the rose is very important, because it is about whether you can usher in the next blossom more quickly. Generally speaking, the florescence of rose is mostly concentrated in these three periods (of course, it will be different according to the variety and planting environment, we can refer to the time closest to the distance as a reference).

The first flowering is usually in spring, then the flowering time is usually May. When pruning, the residual flowers are first trimmed, and then a section of the branch is trimmed. If the plant is tall and luxuriant, it can be trimmed to the third side branch, and if the plant is relatively short, cut to the second side branch.

The weak branches are also cut off by the way to make room for more robust buds. The range of the first pruning can be slightly larger, because it is at the end of spring, the climate is still more suitable for the growth of branches and leaves, if found bad can be given up, there is still enough time for the plant to grow new branches and leaves.

The second flowering is usually in summer, so the flower thanks time is usually June or July, and this time it can be slightly trimmed. In addition to pruning the residual flowers, it is mainly necessary to prune the branches and leaves that are too luxuriant. Too many leaves will consume more nutrients, and it will also cause poor ventilation and easily lead to various diseases. The principle is to keep 3 buds for each branch.

The third blossom is in August, so the flower thanks time is usually September and October. After this flower blossom, the weather began to turn cooler. Many varieties will no longer blossom after this blossom, especially in the cold areas of the north, but they will still blossom in the south, such as Hainan. When the weather turns cold, the rose will enter a dormant period.

The pruning range can be increased to prepare the plant for the winter. It is mainly to trim off weak branches, dead branches and blind branches, as well as some slender overgrown branches and overlong and overdense cross branches, which should also be cut off. When pruning, it is best to prune at 45 degrees above the bud point, which is less harmful to the plant.
