Cut Roses With Care To Save Plant
Summertime fade brilliant die plays of roses everywhere and now that the universal favorite of that flower world has reached it a most beautiful stage. It has also became a favorite decoration for the household or gift for a friend. The spectacular beauty of new varieties can turn the garden and the home into a new piece, and zones have become more popular than ever before. Nothing adds more to the charm of the home than arrangements of beautiful cut roses, but gardeners should be careful to follow a few simple rules for cutting blooms to avoid damage to the growing plants. Removal of withered flowers will also improve the garden. Floribundas produce clusters of buds but the flowers do not develop at the same time. Thus, when one opens, it should be removed to permit the others full nourishment. In cutting hybrids the same procedure is followed. Spare cultivation rules keep weeds out and conserve moisture. In hot climates a mulch helps keep soil cool and retain moisture. Give roses plenty of water during dry spells and fertilize moderately. A light spray helps if pests or disease appear. The overall result is a profusion of gorgeous flowers through summer and fall, with enduring home beauty and gifts for friends. The return on plant cost is small compared to the best varieties available.
