Why are your roses and roses getting smaller and smaller? The reason is this.

Some people ask why their roses are getting smaller and smaller. One of the possible reasons is that there is no pruning, of course, it needs to be trimmed correctly, but you can't do it randomly!

Pruning of the garden rose:

First of all, let's talk about general garden roses, which includes garden roses of ordinary people, including large flower perfume rose, large flower rose and abundant flower rose.

The pruning of this kind of rose has two aspects. One is that after flowering, the flowering branches should be trimmed to only two or three bud holes, about four to five inches. (the so-called bud eye is the place where new branches are born.)

First, how to trim

Because the rose flowers are born on the new branches and stems, if you do not prune, there will be no new branches, how to regenerate the rose? If the new rose is born out of a gap in the old branch, it is of course small and unattractive.

As for cutting to only two or three bud holes, it is also a principle. It is best to pick an outward bud, because the new branches will therefore grow outward, so that the leaves receive more sunlight and avoid cross-growth of branches and stems.

Another important pruning is very important when the early spring rose is still hibernating and has not yet sprouted, about March in the temperate tropics in the south and April or May in the cold regions of the north.

If it is not cut, the old branches of last year will still be there, and the new branches will not grow, and the flowering condition of this year will be very unsatisfactory.

Pruning in early spring is to cut all the branches to only 2 or 4 bud holes, and cut them about 1 cm above the outward bud eyes. After cutting once in this way, this year's branch will be brand-new, and the rose blooming on such a new branch must be big and beautiful.

2. Pruning climbing rose

Climbing rose used to be divided into ancient rose and modern rose, but now in the market, the former is less and less, almost everyone is Fujimoto rose.

1. Pruning of ancient climbing roses:

This kind of flower only blossoms once a year, this kind of pruning is relatively easy, generally do not need a big cut, as long as:

Cut off old branches in spring, or old branches with old diseases can be cut off (from the growing part or from the base).

Cut off the overlong branches every few years to maintain the tree type you like.

Some people will make more efforts to cut off about 2/3 of the branches that have already flowered after flowering, so that new flowers can bloom on new branches.

Rose, which has been growing for many years, if you see too many old branches from the base, you can cut off these old branches from the base, which can encourage the growth of new and healthy branches.

2. Pruning of modern climbing roses:

Don't cut big for the first three years, just to let them grow taller and grow long branches to climb. At the same time, it helps them attach to the branches.

Rose will not climb naturally, you need to use thread to help them attach. The best thread is a woman's used silk stockings, cut into thin strips. Because it is the softest and won't hurt the branches.) if you don't do this for the first two or three years, it will be difficult to control later.

At this time, the side branches are cut off about 1/3 to half of their length each year, promoting the growth of more side branches.

After three years, the old and fragile diseased branches should be cut off from time to time. This kind of branch should be cut off from the place where it is born, or even from the ground. Keep about 5-6 healthy long branches.

When pruning from the ground, always check whether the pruning part is a flat cut, leaving a place where water converges. It's dangerous. As long as the cut branches become a gathering point, there may be insects or mildew, which must be eliminated.

Note:

For climbing roses that only bloom once a year, they must be cut immediately after the flowers are withered. If they are cut too late, the buds of next year will be cut off and there will be no flowers next year. This is the same principle as the pruning of many perennial flowers

This type of rose, which can be cut off by about 1/4 of its length, is enough to grow new branches and give birth to next year's flowers.

Climbing rose that blossoms many times in a year, it is best to pick the flower heads after the flowers are withered, and it is better if you can cut off some of the flower stems, because only in this way can the new flowers continue to bloom.

If the flower head is not cut off, the plant will cultivate fruit pods and bear seeds. Instead of trying to open new flowers. And if you cut off a flower stem, the new flower will grow on the new flower stem, not on the old branch, only a short stem.

But what is said above is the principle and the truth. In general, climbing roses are relatively high, coupled with more flowers, it is difficult to pick flowers one by one, and there is no need to insist. The advantage is that the new climbing rose has been improved to blossom again and again without picking flowers.

When pruning and climbing roses, you need a ladder, which is hard and dangerous. It is best to buy a pair of scissors with a long handle. Large florists will have scissors designed for pruning tall branches. You can buy one depending on the situation.

3. Pruning of shrub roses:

Most shrub roses need only a slight pruning, but pruning once a year will not only keep the tree neat and beautiful, but also help the plant to be healthier and bloom better.

A basic pruning rule is that if your shrub roses look old and are not blooming well, you can cut off one or two of the oldest branches from the ground. This will stimulate new branches to grow from the ground.

If we do this every year, we can gradually replace the old with the new.

As there are many kinds of shrub roses, flowering time is also different, some only blossom once a year, some will bloom many times, so the way of pruning is naturally different. In addition, as a separate plant, or as a fence, or as a climbing rose, the pruning methods are also different.

3. Shrub rose that blossoms only once a year

Most of the rose flowers of this kind of shrubs bloom on the old branches, so it is best to cut them at the end of summer and at the end of the flowering period. And there is no need to cut the rose when cutting shrubs.

Basic principle: cut off dead, diseased and broken branches. On the other hand, cut off the cross-growing branches so that the exposed middle part bears more sunlight on each branch.

4. Shrub rose that blossoms many times

This category can be pruned at the end of winter, that is, in early spring. The warm south is about February, and the colder north is about March or April. At this time, the branch can be cut off about 1/3 in length, and the side branch can be cut to about 2-3 bud holes.

Also in order to renew the plant, the older trees can be cut off one or two of the oldest branches from the ground to stimulate the growth of new branches.

As for the shrub rose that blossoms many times a year, it is best to cut off the flower head after the flower fades, or cut the flower to vase, which can also stimulate more new flowers.

Introduction to the methods of pruning

Always cut at a 45-degree angle when pruning, so as not to accumulate moisture in the pruning part. When cutting roses, they must be cut about one centimeter above the bud eye. As shown above, it is cut too high on the left and too low in the middle. The one on the right is just right. The uppermost bud eye is the place where the new branches are born.
