Floribunda rose is a hybrid of musky, polyanthus and hybrid tea. From polyanthus, winter hardiness and resistance to pests and various diseases were inherited. Unlike the hybrid tea sister, the floribunda rose blooms longer, but it is believed that it is less elegant.
Description of the plant
Floribunda rose has large salmon pink flowersthat instantly catch the attention of passers-by. It is worth noting that this variety changes its color from the beginning to the end of flowering. At first, peach shades predominate, and by the end of the flowering period, pale pink. The buds are located straight up. Kimono roses have always stood out among their relatives with a brighter and fresher color, and therefore they have become more popular among gardeners who purchase seedlings of this variety in large quantities. This variety is also notable for its strong branched stems, often reaching a meter in length. Often the number of flowers in clusters reaches twenty.
Flower application
Floribunda roses look irresistible in city and private flower beds. When planting with any other flowers, these roses do not need to be separated from them with white flowers, as experts advise to do in relation to other plant varieties. This kind fits perfectly into any composition, good for rosaries. When composing bouquets, the Kimono rose is ideal as both a base and a secondary background.
Floribunda rose has found application in urban landscaping. Its pale pink or peach flowers radiate positive and good mood, giving it to passers-by. Do not forget the rich aroma that they exude.
Growing
In order to enjoy the beauty of the flowering of this variety of roses, you will have to make a lot of effort, since it is very demanding on many factors. You will need to create a special structure of the substrate, which must be crumbly. This problem is solved by adding river sand. You will have to purchase certain solutions that destroy pests such as aphids, ticks and other harmful insects. These roses require regular fertilizing with mineral fertilizers, including the well-known compost and humus. Although these flowers are highly frost-resistant, winter shelter will not be superfluous. As a material, you can use both specialized materials and natural ones, such as spruce branches or spruce branches.
Landing
Before starting the planting process, you need to carefully select the seedlings, as the success of everything else depends on it. The purchased seedling must have three well-ripened lignified shoots with green bark without damage, and it is also necessary to have a developed root system with a large number of thin roots. The root collar deserves special attention. Its diameter should be no more than eight millimeters above and below the inoculation site.
How is the planting process and what conditions should be observed:
Before planting, the root system of the seedlings must be immersed in cold water for twenty-four hours. Dry and broken shoots and roots should be trimmed back to healthy tissue.Good shoots should be trimmed to thirty-five centimeters, and roots to thirty centimeters.- Floribunda roses require a lot of light. However, do not plant them where they will be in direct sunlight from morning to evening. In this case, the flowering period will be very short. Plants can also suffer from sunburn and high dryness.
- Ideal would be a place where the flowers will be in the shade for some time, especially during peak heat. It is also worth protecting the roses from the constant draining draft.
- There are several things to keep in mind when preparing the substrate. Good growth of roses is shown in light, deep and not very dry sandy-clay soil, which should have good air permeability. Water should be absorbed quickly, but not completely passed into the far soil layer. This is necessary for the presence of the proper amount of moisture and air in the root system of plants and for soil microorganisms. This is achieved by adding a large amount of humus to the soil.
- The choice of a landing site is worth considering in advance. If the garden soil has a sandy or clay structure, then it is enough to dig it up to the depth of a shovel. It is also necessary to apply chemical fertilizers to the lower part of the soil layer. Humus and compost have a beneficial effect.
Planting process
Exists two methods of planting roses:
When using the first method, it is best to land with an assistant. A hole is dug in advance, at the bottom of which the prepared fertilizer mixture is placed. One needs to hold a rose, another needs to straighten the roots and gradually cover them with soil, compacting it. Upon completion of planting, the seedling needs to be watered well, and after it has completely absorbed the water, it should be covered with earth. In this state, the seedling is left until spring. It is worth remembering that during planting, in no case should the bark on the root collar and the roots of the skeleton be damaged.- For the second method, one person is enough. It is necessary to dissolve the heteroauxin tablet in a bucket of water and add sodium humate, then pour the mixture into the prepared pit. Holding the seedling, lowered to the bottom of the hole, directly into the water with your hand, cover it with the prepared soil mixture. With this method, no voids remain between the roots, which has a beneficial effect on growth. This planting method does not require watering. When planting a seedling, it is necessary to raise and huddle it.
