Rosa is a house plant, and for its full and proper development it is necessary to create certain conditions:
- the plant is very photophilic, soit is necessary to locate it only from the south-west and south-east sides, on the southern side in the summer, the flowers will crumble very quickly. Being on the north side, the bush will not flow well because of the lack of sunlight. In the summer, indoor roses very well feel in the garden, here they easily tolerate heat and sunshine;
- like all houseplants, roses are very fond offresh air, therefore, as soon as the weather permits, it is necessary to open the windows in the apartment. In the summer, they are generally better placed on the terrace or balcony, and the best option is to dig them in the garden. The plant, which is in a stuffy and dark room, will grow very slowly and bloom poorly;
- although indoor roses and require abundant watering,they do not tolerate soil wetting. It is better not to water them than pour. Use only standing water. In summer plants need abundant moisturizing, and closer to autumn watering should be reduced. Usually the reduction of irrigation is carried out immediately after the end of flowering;
- since the rose does not like dry air, itsit is necessary to periodically spray, in the summer 2 times a day. But remember that a plant that is in the sun can not be sprayed so that it does not get sunburn.
Caring for roses in winter
A rose must necessarily have a period of rest.This period occurs approximately from October to February. At this time, plants need to create suitable temperature conditions (about 8 degrees, it is at this temperature that they feel comfortable). If you still leave the roses on the windowsill, then take care of creating a glass barrier to create a more comfortable environment for the plant. In winter, indoor roses are rarely watered and do not spray them.
