The best varieties of dwarf roses

Today, more and more often in the most ceremonial places of summer cottages, you can find miniature roses in containers, pots. They were successfully bred in indoor conditions, where they bloom tirelessly throughout the year.

The history of the appearance of miniature roses

The history of their origin goes back to the 19th century, when dwarf tea roses were brought from China to Europe in 1810. The first official information about them as a dwarf ever-flowering rose (Rosa semperflorens minima) appeared in print in 1815. Then the Laurenz rose (Rosa Lawrenceana), the Indian rose (Rosa indica) appeared in Switzerland, and the famous variety was created on their basis 'Rouletii' - the founder of the first modern varieties of miniature roses.

Naturally, European breeders have never seen anything like this before. Crossing the first varieties with low polyanthus and other roses, they got smaller copies of garden roses, which they combined into a separate group of miniature roses.

Advantages of miniature roses

• in dwarfs from 5 to 30 (45) cm in height, unlike ground cover roses at the same height, the shoots do not fall down in an arc and do not spread over the ground for several meters;
• they are densely leafy, their crowns consist of small, often shiny leaves;
• often abundantly decorated with small fragrant flowers of a wide variety of colors: red, orange, yellow, pink, white, two-color, green, lilac;
• there are varieties in which the color changes as the flower ages from lemon yellow to cherry red;
• most often 3-15 flowers are collected in compact inflorescences;
• there are terry varieties;
• their flowering lasts from May until frost, and has 3 waves: spring, summer and autumn.

The success of growing miniature roses

• they are easily propagated by cuttings;
• in central Russia, they winter easily covered with spruce branches and covered with snow;
• if the shoots freeze over in severe snowless winters, then they are removed during spring pruning and this does not affect the abundance of flowering next year;
• in the southern zone of horticulture, as a rule, miniature roses winter covered with snow;
• they are resistant to pests and fungal diseases.

And what miniature roses grow and bloom in your country house?

Miniature roses in landscape design (with photo)

Miniature roses in the photo

The first miniature roses appeared in China, and from there they were brought to Europe in 1810. This is a historically recorded fact, but they did not receive wide distribution in the 19th century, their triumphal procession began only in 1918, when Dr. Roulette found a miniature rose bush in Switzerland, which he later multiplied and called the “Roulette” rose. It was she who became the ancestor of almost all modern varieties of miniature roses.

Since 1823 this group has become very popular in France for decorating parterres in gardens and parks and for decorating winter gardens. Over time, interest in them waned. Around 1910, they were re-grown in large numbers in pots. About 20 species were distributed.

In Russia, these roses were grown in the collection of the Imperial Botanical Garden, which was led by the outstanding botanist E. Regel.

In 1940, Spanish and Dutch breeders began to hybridize miniature roses on a large scale. To obtain new hybrids, they used low-growing roses of other groups. Thanks to interspecific hybridization and selection, a number of varieties were obtained that retained the main characteristics of miniature roses, but received a bright and varied color, as well as an elegant flower shape.

The description of miniature roses is quite consistent with the name of the group: these little beauties are really small - their height is only 10-30 cm, but the shoots are abundantly covered with small dark green shiny leaves.

Roses can have thin, durable thorns or be smooth-bore. The flowers are small - 1-3 cm in diameter, usually double, cupped, single or collected in apical inflorescences. The flowering is abundant and long - lasts almost without stopping all summer.

Own-rooted miniature roses do not give root growth, so they are propagated by green cuttings. In the room, this is done in March-September, on the street - in May-August.

The descendants of the Roulette rose are grown today in a variety of forms: there are spray (considered classic), and trellis, and ground cover, and standard, and climbing. Therefore, their use is very diverse. Miniature roses are grown mainly as potted plants, but sometimes they can be seen on flower beds, and in flower beds, and in borders, and in garden groups, and on alpine slides.

As you can see in the photo, you can decorate walls, balconies, and decorate arches with miniature roses in landscape design:

On their own roots, the plants reach a height of 15-20 cm, the bush turns out to be compact, well leafy; grafted on rose hips - much higher (30-50 cm).

Rapidly lignified shoots grow straight, up to 80 flowers are formed on each. Leaves are compound, of 5-7 leathery shiny leaves, ovoid, finely serrated along the edge, in most varieties they are dark green, however, varieties with bronze-brown foliage or light green with dark veins are found.

Garden roses have small flowers with many petals. They do not retain their color during the entire flowering period: the bush simultaneously contains lemon-yellow, coral-pink, crimson-crimson flowers, which makes the plant exceptionally elegant.In temperate zones, the buds do not bloom for a long time, in half-release they have the form of noble large-colored roses. In hot conditions, the buds bloom on the 4-5th day and the whole bush is covered with bright beautiful flowers throughout the summer.

Cut flowers stand in water for 7-9 days without losing their decorative effect; in some varieties they have a delicate aroma.

The flowering of most varieties continues with regular watering until frost (in the southern region - 5-6 months); some weakening occurs in the hot dry months (July and August).

Look at the photo - miniature roses can decorate any garden plot:

They are good in groups on the lawn, in vases on the porch, along the paths, in compositions with ornamental shrubs and perennials.

Indoor varieties of miniature roses are sometimes called dwarf bush roses or patio roses, and greenhouse varieties are called pot roses. The latter usually do not exceed 25 cm in height and are grown as houseplants. Their flowers are also tiny, no more than 2-4 cm in diameter, double or semi-double, of all flowers inherent in roses.

And although miniature roses do not stretch up, they can please with rich branching. Usually these roses do not smell. Along with growing in pots, they can also be planted in small flower beds or along paths.

The indisputable advantage of growing miniature roses is the ease of their propagation by cuttings. Own-rooted roses bloom almost continuously and, without strong roots, like grafted roses, can be used as an indoor culture.

Growing miniature roses: care and pruning

Growing miniature roses is usually not difficult if you provide them with optimal conditions: a sunny place, sheltered from the northerly winds, and slightly acidic soil that retains moisture well (light loams are ideal).

Caring for miniature roses is also easy. It is necessary to regularly water the roses, loosen the soil after watering and during the growing season give four top dressing: 1st - after the bush is freed from the shelter with ammonium nitrate, 2nd - as the shoots grow with carbamide, 3rd - when buds appear with full mineral fertilizer, 4th - in August with superphosphate and potassium nitrate.

When growing miniature roses in the garden, keep in mind that, like hybrid tea, they are affected by powdery mildew, marsonina (black leaf spot), aphids and rose sawfly.

For the winter, miniature roses are covered only when the sub-zero temperature becomes stable and settles at a level not lower than -7 ° C. It is not recommended to use peat, sand and sawdust for shelter - peat acidifies the soil, sand hardens, and sawdust absorbs moisture and loses its protective properties after freezing. Dry foliage covered with agril is ideal. The bushes are spud, covered with leaves, a wire frame is installed on top, the height of which is 20-30 cm higher than the bush. Agryl is placed on the frame and all this is covered with plastic wrap on top and its ends are fixed with the help of heavy improvised materials (pipes, bricks, etc.). In this form, miniature roses winter well. In order to avoid damping in the spring in March - April during thaws, airing is carried out, opening the leeward side of the frame.

South of the Central zone of Russia, miniature roses are well preserved in winter, being covered with an earthen mound 15-20 cm high. With lower hilling in frosty winters, the shoots freeze over. In spring they grow back quickly, but bloom 5-7 days later than those that have not suffered.

Miniature roses are propagated by green and semi-lignified cuttings. Can be propagated by budding on rose hips. The difficulty lies in the fact that these roses have very thin shoots from which the eyes are taken, while the size of the eye should correspond to the thickness of the rootstock.

In these plants, the buds sit close to each other, which makes it difficult to prune miniature roses, they must be pruned to a few centimeters above the ground. 2-3 buds are left on each stem of a miniature rose. Pruning of this group of roses is carried out in the spring before the buds swell.

Miniature roses, unlike large-flowered ones, need more careful care. To preserve their decorative effect, it is necessary to regularly remove wilted flowers.

You can decorate balconies, loggias, terraces, small flower beds with these roses, but you should know that the scent is a rare phenomenon for these plants. And further. If the balcony is flooded with bright sun all day, the roses will feel bad on it. Constant exposure to the sun is categorically contraindicated for miniature roses - in this case, their flowers bloom one after another so quickly that it is impossible to remove faded ones in time. From this, flowering gradually becomes less and less abundant, and soon the bushes lose their decorative effect.

Next, you can familiarize yourself with the photo and description of miniature roses, the most popular among flower growers.

Summer residents and gardeners love to decorate their backyards with flowers. In many courtyards, you can see large flower beds and flower beds. Some people even create indescribable beauty from flowers, forming flower beds of continuous flowering. One of the main beauties is the rose. She is rightfully considered the queen of the flower world. It is she who, to a greater extent, is given special preference by both amateur gardeners and professionals. Therefore, many people want to choose the best varieties of roses. How to make the right choice and what should be considered?

The main criterion for the abundant flowering of the bush is the environment and soil characteristics. As many gardeners note, no matter which variety of roses is chosen, you can create a fertile soil for it yourself and concentrate the beds anywhere you want. Thus, the problem with the difference between the flowers you like and the soil conditions unsuitable for them is solved.

Roses with so-called complex colors are very demanding to the composition of the soil. The petals of such flowers have a combination of several shades. They can be very different and combine smooth or sharp transitions. Modern breeders have learned to breed amazing species of this plant, which have not only complex coloring, but also an incredible shape. On unsuitable soil, such plants acquire a depressed state, an unsightly shape and a dull color. Their life cycle is significantly shortened.

Very often people choose David Austin roses. The varieties of these flowers are intended mainly for cultivation in partial shade and in loamy soils. Such conditions are typical for many other species. If we consider in general the soil conditions and the location of the flower bed, then these flowers love light breathing earth. It is categorically impossible to plant seedlings in clay, sandy and sandy loam soil, since it poorly permeates moisture and, practically, does not allow air exchange between the root system and the soil. Experts recommend, in this case, to carry out a double digging with the addition of chernozem, peat, sod land and well-rotted manure. In this case, the proportions should be kept approximately equal.

The best place to plant roses is on the southeast side of your patio, garden or backyard. The place should not be dark, shaded by buildings, trees or ornamental shrubs.

As for the climate, then the resistance of a particular plant species to changeable weather conditions, to cold weather, heat and lack of air humidity should be taken into account. Are absolutely contraindicated for the colors of the place of north-western orientation at the summer cottage. Plants are very sensitive to drafts and cold winds, so roses will not grow well in such areas.

Classification of varieties of roses. What types are there and how to distinguish between them?

The opinions of many experts and florists boil down to the fact that before you start growing these beautiful flowers, you need to find out as much information as possible about them in order to avoid mistakes. After all, in the end, every grower, regardless of qualifications, wants to get high-quality, fragrant and beautiful roses. Species and varieties are divided into several categories. In each of them, there are the best options that have proven themselves on the positive side in all respects.

The most beautiful and common types of roses are:

• Floribunda.
• Hybrid tea.
• Grandiflora.
• Groundcover.
• Climbing.
• Shrubs.
• Selected by David Austin.

When choosing a variety, you must take into account your preferences and tastes, then your favorite flowers will appear on your personal plot.

Floribunda roses. Varieties, photos, description

The history of these flowers began in 1924, when the Danish originator by the name of Poulsen first bred the original flowers of this type, which were called hybrid-polyanthus. At first, they belonged to the general category of tea roses, and were bred into a separate group in 1976. Some experts note that floribunda roses are intermediate varieties between the two types (hybrid tea and climbing). A distinctive feature of these colors is the diversity in everything. This is especially true for the combination of shades and tones. As a rule, they are rich, colorful, juicy.

General characteristics. The height of the bushes varies from 40 cm to 1.5 m, about 35 inflorescences can be collected on one stem. The flowers themselves have from 8 to 24 petals, the edges of which are distinguished by medium doubleness. In shape, some varieties resemble a narrow or wide glass, while others can bloom with flat or cupped buds.

The description of floribunda rose varieties also shows that their individual specimens can have golden clear shades, which are distinguished by a glossy surface and rigid petals. Such plants have an average height (about 1 meter). They are also characterized by larger flowers, which are collected in small inflorescences.

It should be noted that floribunda is a continuous flowering rose. They are also resistant to frost, fungal and viral diseases. This is an excellent solution for decorating your summer cottage or home yard.

Hybrid tea roses: varieties, photos, description

This group has a very interesting history. Back in 1867, the Frenchman J.-B. André Guillot was engaged in the cultivation of flowers that were unique at that time. For years he experimented with La France, crossing remontant and tea roses. As a result, he created a beautiful plant that had many differences and its own unique zest. Then André Guillot positioned his brainchild as a variety of bourbon roses.

In the description of varieties of hybrid tea roses, their main feature is listed - the continuity of flowering. Also characteristic of these flowers are easily-cranked or straight stems, which have increased strength. They create erect, slightly spreading shoots. The varieties of hybrid tea roses were classified into a separate group in 1997.

The bushes are characterized by low shoots. Their length is a little less than a meter, they have large racemes with 4-7 leaves. Most often, flowers are collected in small inflorescences of 4-6 pcs. Shades are very different (in some varieties, several colors can be combined). There are new varieties of hybrid tea roses that have complex large double flowers.

Almost all varieties of hybrid tea roses have a beautiful appearance and are perfect for decorating not only a summer cottage, but also premises. The average period of initial, active flowering lasts about a month. Then comes the time to move to the next stage - the emergence of new flowers (15 days for early varieties and 30 days for later). Then they bloom continuously until the first frost.

Rose varieties of the Grandiflora group

A relatively new type of flowers, developed for decorating gardens. They look like a low-growing tree, about 1.5-2 m high. This group of flowers was obtained by crossing floribunda and hybrid tea varieties. Grandiflora embodies the best qualities of these varieties. They have a very attractive appearance and a wonderful aroma. Notable properties are resistance to disease and frost.

Ground cover roses: varieties, photos, description

The name of this group contains the main answer to the question about the main characteristics of the plant. Groundcover - low-growing roses that are able to cover a vast area of ​​the flower bed with long shoots with many flowers blooming on them. The length of the shoot can at times reach up to 4 meters. Thus, nature creates a natural, beautiful carpet.

There are also ground cover roses, varieties of which, in addition to creeping on the ground, shoot drooping shoots. This type of growth provides an indescribable beauty to the bushes. Some species bloom once a year (they are rarely used by summer residents). It is the continuously flowering varieties of ground cover roses that are very popular.

Roses also have ground cover varieties (see photo), which are characterized by a variety of shades (light pink or pale crimson, red and dark red, light red or pure white). The buds have a variety of sizes.

Another feature of these flowers is frost resistance. Many varieties do not shed their foliage until spring. They are good for decorating columns or walls in the yard. Despite this, the base of the plants should be covered for the winter.

Roses shrabs: varieties, photos

Speaking about this group of flowers, one can note their main feature - a magnificent aroma, neat, upright bushes, abundant and continuous flowering. Flowers can be of various shapes (there are small ones, and there are large ones, the diameter of which reaches 12 cm). Petals are double, semi-double or simple.The leaves do not have a glazed surface; they can be dark green with a burgundy tint.

It should be noted that shrub roses were introduced into a separate group in 1954. It was then that many very beautiful species of this plant appeared.

Due to its structure and powerful root system, the formation of a bush is very easy, the main thing is to cut it on time. For example, flower growers very often form a ball, cone or strict square. This is not difficult to do. Some summer residents use this plant to form a decorative hedge to highlight one or another area of ​​the personal plot.

Roses are grown shrabs (see varieties with photos) summer residents, both in separate flower beds, and in combination with other types of flowers. They are often used in the planning of gardens or parks, which is why shraba roses are called landscape or park roses.

There are three groups of scrub (park) roses:

1. Curly - the length of the shoots is from 5 to 16 m.

Roses bred by David Austin

The origin of this group of flowers is very interesting. An English breeder named David Austin began breeding completely new types of roses. He experimented for a long time, crossing classic floribunda and tea hybrid with varieties of long-forgotten old French and Damascus roses, which had already lost their popularity and demand among gardeners and summer residents.

As a result of his hard work, flowers of a completely new format were obtained, which began to be called Austin roses. The varieties he bred have very attractive shapes, with intricate petals and the structure of the bud itself. They are also characterized by new aromas. Many experts compare the smells of these flowers with the aromas of expensive, natural and real teas.

The best varieties of Austin roses are very beautiful and are often grown for the trade. Despite the variety of forms of shoots, bushes and the abundance of flowering, the presentation of all varieties of rose leaves is not lost.

The work done by the English breeder has a great price. For example, breeding a single resistant variety requires 4 to 8 years of diligent attention and careful approach. Austin devoted his whole life to this business, which is more than 60 years. From a very young age, he started a business that brought him the most pleasure. The nursery he created, which is located in Shropshire, is still engaged in breeding new types of Austin roses. The catalog of varieties with photos is constantly updated with new types of these flowers, which have incredible beauty and advantageous properties.

It should be noted that the climatic location of Shropshire (western part of England) contributes to the endowment of Austin flowers with unique properties - resistance to severe weather conditions and diseases.
