The best varieties of miniature 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, purple;
• 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?

The best varieties of miniature roses, photo

From the name alone, it immediately becomes clear that we are talking about the most compact representatives of roses. At the same time, classic miniature roses have not only very modest growth (from 0.3 to 0.5 m), but also small flowers with graceful leaves. However, we are increasingly seeing varieties of the so-called patio roses.This designation of roses is mainly used in England and describes varieties with compact growth, but larger flowers than miniature roses.

In the group of miniature roses and patio roses, there are varieties of a wide variety of flower shades with different abundance of flowering. However, before buying, it is imperative to clarify the resistance to leaf diseases, since old varieties in this regard often lose to modern ones.

When decorating a garden, miniature roses are naturally suitable for small areas, for example, for the foreground of mixed flower beds or flower beds. Such roses look especially attractive in a rock garden if the soil is deep enough. But really their charm reveals itself when planted in tubs on the terrace and balcony, precisely because of their compact growth. And the roses themselves feel better when grown in tubs, to which they react with the harmonious formation of a bush and abundant flowering. These are re-blooming roses. Depending on the size, several bushes can be planted in one tub at once, but it is important not to forget about good ventilation, since if the foliage is too wet, the risk of leaf disease increases. It is important to stick to the golden mean when watering, as excess water can damage the roses.

Miniature or dwarf roses have been known in Europe for only a hundred years. These cute looking flowers can beautify any garden. They are grown outdoors in soil or container. The process is simple, but it still contains several important features.

Miniature roses: description and varietal variety

Dwarf, it is the border variety, according to external data, is in no way inferior to classic roses. Characteristics:

• height - 15-20 cm, the maximum of some varieties is up to 50 cm;
• crown - dense, collected from small leaves with a matte surface;
• buds are combined into inflorescences of 3-5 pcs .;
• at the same time, roses of different colors are formed on one plant.

Attention! Interestingly, the blooming of dwarf roses lasts almost the entire season. Activity decreases slightly during the hottest months.

The cultivation of miniature roses is practiced in the following forms:

• in a pot;
• in a portable container in the open air;
• in the open field.

The opinion that designers use small shrubs only when decorating a small area is wrong. Dwarf roses are a full-fledged and independent decorative element of a garden or park landscape.

Attention! When cut, the flowers stay in water for 7-9 days. Some roses have a delicate scent.

Among the most popular varieties:

1. Hummingbird. Bush up to 30 cm high with dark leathery leaf plates. The buds of an unusual appearance are about 3 cm in size. The color of the flowers is bright yellow-orange. They tend to burn out.
2. Javel. One of the smallest varieties. Its leaves are elongated, leathery. Terry flowers, 3-5 cm in diameter. Color - bright red with yellow underneath. The petals can fade, and the buds can bend under their weight.
3. Garnet. The petals of this rose combine shades of red and crimson. Their shape is classical, size - up to 5 cm. The foliage is dense, leathery.
4. Lavender. Height - up to 40 cm. Flowers with a diameter of 4-5 cm. In spring they look like a hybrid tea rose, at the height of the season they look like a floribunda. The color is lavender, with the presence of purple inserts.
5. Amulet. The 50-centimeter bush blooms with bright pink double flowers. The foliage is dense, green.

Planting curb roses in the open field

Start by selecting a seedling. Signs of a healthy plant:

• the root is not overdried;
• trunk - elastic, dark green;
• there are no stains, mold or damage on the branches.

Planting roses in the ground

When the planting material is ready, select a place for it. The shrub loves an abundance of sun or partial shade. Slightly acidic loam is best suited for growing border roses. The soil must be sufficiently fertile. To bring it back to normal:

• clayey raw soils are fed with humus with sand (for digging);
• dry sandy ones, on the contrary, are diluted with clay and humus (2-3 buckets).

Advice. Consider and improve drainage. Especially if rain or melt water stagnates on the site.

Planting such rose bushes should only be done in early spring. For the season before the next winter, the roots will take root and get stronger. Algorithm of work for open ground:

1. Soak the root of the seedling in water for 6 hours. If it is long, cut it to 9-10 cm.
2. Prepare the landing pits. The depth corresponds to the length of the roots.
3. Add 0.4 kg of lime, 0.2 kg of wood ash, 0.2 kg of dolomite flour, 50 g of superphosphate to the planting hole.
   
4. Fill the hole with water. When it is absorbed, proceed directly to planting.
5. Cover the plant immediately with a nonwoven fabric. This measure will help protect the roses from sunlight and frost at first.

Advice. Do not touch or water the bushes for several days after planting.

Culture care

Miniature roses need standard grooming methods. Watering the shrub is required twice a day: in the morning and in the evening. But excess moisture for the roots is destructive. In rainy periods, it is better not to water the bush. Remember to loosen the soil and remove weeds regularly.

A miniature rose does not need serious shelter to successfully winter.She is able to calmly endure frosts in the climate of the middle zone of the Russian Federation. In the fall, carry out the following procedure:

• tear off the remaining buds and flower stalks;
• cover with spruce branches;
• build a wire frame about 20 cm high above the bush;
• place it over the plant;
• cover the frame with insulation;
• put a layer of film on top.

Attention! It is important for the health of the culture that the insulation is not carried out before the establishment of the final frost.

Roses are pruned after winter, immediately following the harvesting of the protective material. Simply remove damaged or frostbitten shoots by cutting at an angle. At least three buds should remain on one shoot. Measures to protect against garden pests of the curb variety are needed the same as for an ordinary rose. After the first leaves and buds grow, spray the bush with Prestige, Antizhuk or another insecticide. Dilute according to the instructions.

Fertilization and reproduction of miniature roses

Experts advise to feed the culture according to the following scheme:

• ammonium nitrate or urea - in early spring after cleaning the shelter;
• the same fertilizer - after 2-3 weeks;
• complex mineral mixtures - after the appearance of the first buds;
• potassium nitrate (superphosphate is possible) - in August.

Such a rose is propagated only by cuttings:

• pick up strong shoots with 3-4 buds;
• make a cut at right angles above the upper kidney, at 45 ° at the lower one;
• soak the cuttings in Epin's solution (100g / l) for 8-10 hours;
• prepare the container;
• lay out the drainage, pour in a fertile substrate;
• pour a layer of sand about 1 cm on top;
• root the cuttings, water and cover with foil.

For the twigs to take root, at least 1 month must pass. During this time, occasionally check the soil, not allowing it to dry out. After a month, the cuttings can be ventilated from time to time. Growing a miniature rose is fun and not too difficult. By adhering to the basic guidelines, you will decorate your garden with amazing flowers in different shades.

Absolutely all varieties of miniature spray roses are a real find for those who do not have the opportunity to break a large mixborder, but really want to decorate their site with a beautiful floristic composition. These small shrubs do not take up much space and, in addition, they perfectly coexist with a variety of types of horticultural crops, perfectly shading tall tapeworms and perfectly complementing ground cover loaches.

Miniature rose is a low, compact plant no more than 25-35 cm high, with small flowers, graceful leaves and thin shoots.

Miniature roses for outdoor cultivation

The concept of miniature roses has changed rapidly over time. A large number of new varieties appeared after breeders of ornamental plants mastered modern breeding techniques. Since about 1980, special attention has been paid to potted roses. As a result, roses growing in a pot, bucket or box on the balcony have completely new uses.

Naturally, new advantages were also applied to the cultivation of miniature roses in the open field. At the same time, the properties of growth, uniformity and density of foliage were improved, the number of flowers and their size were increased. It is also worth noting the significant improvement in the health of roses and the strict differentiation of varieties of miniature roses in accordance with different purposes. Nevertheless, some intersections with a group of low-growing climbing roses could not be avoided.

Miniature roses are also called ground cover roses. Such a double name already in itself testifies to the varied uses of the plants of this group. Initially, miniature varieties were intended to decorate city flower beds.

Previously, they were planted with the ground cover variety Contoneaser. It is quite simple to look after him, but he also looks boring. To remedy the situation, gardeners were looking for an alternative among densely growing, resistant varieties of roses that could turn discreet flower beds into flowering carpets.First, they decided to use old varieties and, among other things, upright, single-flowering varieties with long shoots and the possibility of branching, as well as miniature polyanthus roses with small flowers.

Before long, nurseries provided stores with many new varieties that needed to be grouped. At least in terms of growth properties. Five such groups were formed:

• Slow growing, ground cover;
• Growing upright, with a tough stem;
• Low, with dense foliage;
• Slightly curved, spreading;
• Intensively growing, ground cover.

These photos show miniature roses from different groups:

The name "ground cover roses" is problematic for an amateur gardener. Most often, such a plant is expected to grow at a height of several centimeters from the soil level. However, these varieties behave differently. To avoid misunderstandings, the names "ground cover roses" and "miniature bush roses" were coined. And here we are again where there are no clear distinctions between groups of plants. Several decades ago, many varieties of miniature bush roses could well be ranked among the group of modern climbing roses.

Now check out the description of the ADR miniature rose colors.

Next, you will learn how to prune miniature roses for the winter.

Correct pruning of miniature roses for the winter (with video)

These roses are the smallest. But it is very important to trim them correctly, because if you do not do this, some varieties lose their typical appearance.

Many, in particular the old varieties, have countless weak, thin, branched shoots. It is hardly possible, and besides, it is very difficult to cut them strictly according to the rules. And this is useless! The easiest way is to grab the crown with your hand and cut off all the shoots by half or two-thirds of the length, that is, about ten centimeters.

When pruning miniature roses for the winter, the weakest and lateral shoots can be removed later. This will encourage the growth of strong fresh growth, which will produce fluffy and dense foliage and guarantee the correct shape of the plant.

There are no general rules for pruning miniature spray roses. And all because this group of plants is incredibly diverse in all possible parameters, including the shape and properties of growth. When pruning, the size of the area to be covered with flowers is critical.

This is achieved only through long-term cultivation.Therefore, pruning primarily includes minor corrections and, of course, the removal of dead or diseased shoots. It is not necessary to prune miniature roses in the fall every year. Intensive pruning for the purpose of healing is carried out every 3-5 years.

The ideal number of strong buds on the shoot is 5-6. Keep in mind that among miniature spray roses there are also single-flowering ones. After radical healing pruning, such roses do not bloom the next year.

In large areas, miniature shrub roses can be cut with a brush cutter without fear of harm. If necessary, after rough pruning, the bushes can be trimmed more precisely and thinned out.
