Recently, the patio mix rose has become increasingly popular among florists. Let's get to know the representatives of this variety better.

Description of varieties

At the end of the last century, Patio roses were singled out as an independent group. Despite this, in some catalogs, these plants are still classified as species such as miniature or Floribunda.

Patios were obtained as a result of breeding work on crossing curb and undersized varieties. The very first varieties were bred Marlena and Meteor.

These flowers are stunted. However, among the Patio, there are also taller representatives. They differ from other species in the shape of the leaf blade and flowers. For example, Patio flowers and leaves are smaller than Floribunda, but larger than miniature ones. Flowers differ in a variety of shapes and shades. They can be plain or terry. The largest specimens reached 5 cm in diameter.

The bush has compact dimensions. It grows up to 55 cm in height. Such plants are often grown on boles. Here you can achieve a height of 1 m from them.

Representatives of this variety are often used by designers to create landscape displays.

How to plant and care

To get good flowering from these roses, you need to properly plant and care for the bushes. Saplings can be planted in garden soil or in flower pots. In open ground, planting is carried out in early spring. Before transferring to the soil, the root system of the seedling should be opened and soaked for several hours in water.

Patio roses love open and sunny areas. In a place suitable for their growth, a hole should be dug with a diameter and depth of about 45 cm. A drainage (expanded clay or pebble) is placed on its bottom, which is covered with sand from above. Organic fertilizers should be placed on top of the sand layer. Grass and leaves will do. You can also add manure. After that, the plants are placed in a hole and covered with earth. Then the soil around the seedling is compacted

A room rose, after buying in a store, needs a mandatory transplant. This procedure is performed according to the same scheme as planting a purchased seedling in open ground. After planting, the plant should be well watered. For this, warm water is taken.

In order for a planted plant to take root, you need to know how to care for it correctly. Caring for representatives of the Patio variety, both in the garden and at home, is simple. However, despite this, there are several rules that must be remembered when growing such roses:

• the flower should be well lit during the day. It tolerates direct sunlight normally. But when transferred from home to garden, the plant must adapt to the new light regime. To prevent sunburn, roses should be shaded a little at noon;
• watering is performed regularly. However, the bay of the flower should be avoided. Spraying of leaves is allowed. For irrigation, only settled and warm water is taken;
• during the season, fertilizing is mandatory. Here you need to use fertilizers specially formulated for roses. Top dressing is applied carefully so as not to overdo it.

As you can see, caring for these flowers at home and in the garden really does not require a significant investment of time and effort. Any novice florist can cope with this task.

Reproduction technique

Patio can be propagated in two ways:

• cuttings;
• by grafting the shoot on the dog rose.

Both methods are quite popular, but cuttings are still used more often. They can be cut from the mother bush at any time.However, twigs cut at the beginning of summer take root best. A cut shoot should have a bud, flower, bud or stem.

The stalk takes root in moist and loose soil. Before planting, it can be placed in water until roots appear.

Disease and pest control

The planted rose bushes of this variety must be monitored so as not to miss the moment of the appearance of parasites or diseases. Most often, plants suffer from spider mites. Its presence is evidenced by a white bloom on the leaves and cobwebs. To combat it, various insecticidal agents are used (for example, "Aktara").

Flowers can be sore due to improper care, so care should always be optimal.

Wintering conditions

Garden roses of the Patio variety are transferred to the house for the winter. Although they can be left to winter in the garden. In this case, the bushes are covered with spruce branches. A wire frame is built around the plant, which is covered with a film on top. From mid-spring, such a structure should be opened for ventilation. The insulation is removed in the presence of an established warm weather.

When transferring a rose to the house for the winter, it should be additionally illuminated with fluorescent lamps. The room temperature should be at around +20 degrees. If these conditions are not met, then the flower will go into hibernation. For shallow sleep, you need a temperature of +15 degrees, and for deep sleep, +5 degrees.

For planting, it is recommended to choose a sunny and open area. The hole should be about 45 cm deep and in diameter so that the root system is spacious in it. At the bottom of the hole, it is necessary to make a drainage layer: small pebbles (pebbles, expanded clay or broken brick) are laid at the very bottom, and a little sand is poured from above.

It is recommended to put organic fertilizers on top of the drainage. Dry foliage, grass, or decay can be used. It is not superfluous to put a little manure on the bottom of the hole.

For irrigation, you need to take warm water that has been heated by the rays of the sun. It is advisable to use rainwater. When using tap water, it is recommended to let it stand for a few days so that all the chlorine is released from it.

Care

Caring for patio roses is easy both at home and in the garden. How to care for the garden and at home?

Location

It is recommended to grow a culture in a bright place, be it a window, balcony or open ground. In garden plots, direct sunlight is not harmful to the rose. However, if it has been growing at home for a long time, then before transferring the plant to the garden, the flower will need to adapt to the rays of the sun. This also applies to newly purchased flowers.

To prevent sunburn at noon, when the sun is too bright, it is advisable to protect the plant from the rays. And so that the root system does not suffer from overheating, the pot can be placed in a large and light pots, or wrapped in white paper.

Watering and humidity

Spraying is allowed, but not in direct sunlight. This procedure will help you endure the heat and heat. However, over spraying can lead to the development of fungus.

Top dressing

It is not recommended to start feeding the plant immediately after purchase. It is better to start fertilizing after 3 months. This is due to the fact that the roses on sale are already well enriched with special long-acting dressings. And additional application will cause salinization of the soil.

Wintering in the garden and indoors

For the winter, some dig up the plant and move it indoors for the winter, others leave the patio rose in the garden to winter. In this case, it is required to cover it with spruce branches. A wire frame is placed around the bush, which should be several centimeters higher than the bush itself. Material and polyethylene film are laid on it. Starting in mid-spring, the plants need to be ventilated, and soon the insulation is completely removed.

Since the rose often lacks natural light in winter, the use of artificial lighting lamps is recommended. In this case, the air temperature should be about 20 degrees. However, if such conditions cannot be ensured, then the plant can be sent to winter. Wintering can be deep or shallow.

For shallow sleep, the plant needs to provide a temperature of no higher than 15 degrees. And for deep sleep, the temperature is lowered to 5 degrees. However, the temperature needs to be lowered gradually. In deep sleep, the rose throws off the leaves, and the lack of light no longer scares her.

Pests

The plant is often affected by spider mites. You can find it by a whitish bloom in the form of a cobweb on the leaves. It is required to fight it with the help of insecticidal agents ("Aktara", "Aktellik", "Fitoverm" and others).

Faded leaves are the cause of overheating of the culture, whitish bloom is a sign of a spider mite's damage to the plant, and brown spots signal the presence of a fungal infection.

You should also check the plant for pests.

The packaging must be of high quality. It needs information about the variety of the rose, the color of the flowers.

What to do after purchase?
