Rose varieties with descriptions, names and photos

Landing

Unlike other roses, climbing roses have long shoots, dense foliage and many flowers. All this beauty must be fed. The plant is fed mainly by the roots. They do not need competitors from neighboring roses. Therefore, the distance between the seedlings of ramblers is set at two meters, and for climbers - one and a half meters.

When planting seedlings, the grafting site is deepened by 10 cm. Then the plant's own roots are formed on the scion. The root system has more opportunities for obtaining nutrients.

When planting a rose, it is tilted at a slight angle to the support. Then it will be easier to attach the whips to the supporting garden structures. Do not forget about the space necessary for unfolding the lashes removed for the winter.

The north side of the garden is contraindicated for roses. It is optimal to choose southwest or southeast. On the south side, the roots dry out, the stems are burned, the flowers fade. Therefore, consider shading the rose when planting it on the south side.

Before planting, when examining a seedling, pay attention to what the vaccination site is tied with. Sometimes duct tape is used instead of dissolving tape

If there is an electrical tape, then it is removed.

Alba Meidiland

Rose of the Alba Meillandecor variety - also called Meidiland - is also very unpretentious to care for. It was bred in 1987 and has won two American Rose Society (AARS) awards. It is distinguished by exceptional frost resistance, therefore it grows well both in warm, humid climates and in colder regions. The bushes are not tall, about 60-70 centimeters in height, and tend to grow in width, reaching 1.5-2 meters in diameter. Small and smooth leaves are usually dark green with a gray tint. Unlike Rugosa and Maxim, this variety does not bear fruit.

Note! This variety requires a lot of space, as it is prone to conquering territories. Consider this when landing.

Maidiland blooms from the second half of June until autumn and is very abundant. Terry flowers, small, 3-5 centimeters in diameter, collected in lush inflorescences of up to 7-10 flowers in each. They tolerate rain well and do not require pollination. At the end of the flowering period, they disappear by themselves, so there is no need to cut them off. They have a weak unobtrusive aroma.

Planting of this variety in temperate latitudes is usually carried out in spring, in April, in more southern areas - in autumn, in mid-October. Meidiland is not demanding on the soil, it can be planted almost everywhere where the acid-base level is in the range of 5-8 pH. The plant feels great both on the sunny side and in the shade. Great for grafting on a bole.

Additional Information! The stem for grafting must be dry to the touch and free of cracks, otherwise the plant will not take root.

Watering

This rose does not need increased watering, since it has a high drought resistance. It will be enough to water it weekly with settled water at the rate of one bucket per bush. In rainy periods, you can stop watering altogether. Meyandecor is not watered at the beginning of autumn to prepare it for wintering.

Good to know! Roses should not be watered late at night and during the day when the sun is at its peak. In the first case, night humidity and temperature changes can provoke the appearance of a fungus. In the second, through drops of moisture, acting on the principle of a lens, the plant can get sunburn.

Wintering

Since the Alba Meyandecor variety is not afraid of frosts, it is not necessary to cover it for the winter. However, this does not apply to standard roses.

Important! Roses on the trunk must be covered for the winter, otherwise they will die. To help such a rose overwinter without problems, the roots are gently undermined on one side

The stem is bent to the ground and fixed, tied to the support. In this case, a little free space should remain between the rose and the ground. Cover with spandex or spruce branches after the onset of stable frosts

To help such a rose overwinter without problems, the roots are gently undermined on one side. The stem is bent to the ground and fixed, tied to the support. In this case, a little free space should remain between the rose and the ground. Cover with spandex or spruce branches after the onset of stable frosts.

Pruning

In the spring, it is worth pruning the plant to get rid of frozen and broken stems. Madiland recovers very quickly after pruning, so you can thin out the bush without fear of damaging it. Despite the fact that this variety is very slightly susceptible to diseases, such as powdery mildew and black spot, it will not be superfluous to treat the plant with a 0.5% solution of copper sulfate for prevention.

Top dressing

Top dressing is usually carried out once immediately after removing the shelter and twice in the summer, during the budding period and a month and a half before the start of wintering. Fertilizer is applied in liquid form. Water the rose before and immediately after feeding.

How to choose a variety?

If a novice gardener decided to plant white climbing roses on the site, then he should abandon complex varieties that require a lot of attention and care.

Therefore, when choosing a variety, pay attention to the following points:

• choose varieties that easily tolerate difficult climatic conditions, for example, frost-resistant varieties (Iceberg Cl., Ilse Krohn Superior, Guirlande dAmour);
• give preference to options that are immune to the most common ailments (Colonial White, Hella, Alaska);
• it is better to buy climbers, they will be able to please with flowering several times over the summer (Mrs. Herbert Stevens, "Iceberg Climing", "Madame Alfred Carrier");
• choose a variety with thornless shoots and small thorns, otherwise caring for the rose will turn into a real torture and a struggle for the safety of the skin of the hands (Alberic Barbier);
• for novice gardeners, it is recommended to give preference to self-cleaning white roses, they themselves shed faded buds and do not need regular pruning;
• check the description on the package with the seedlings, it may indicate if the rose is suitable for growing in a particular climate.

Shelters for climbing roses

When looking for an answer to the question: "How to cover climbing roses for the winter?" you first need to understand how your bushes are located. If they are located in one line, then it is optimal to choose a shield type of shelter. In the case of a group arrangement, you can build a frame over the entire rose garden. If the rose bushes are located separately, then here you need to focus on the climatic conditions of your region. If your winters are moderately frosty and there is a lot of snow, then high hilling with spruce branches covering on top will be enough. Otherwise, it is advisable to build at least a small, but frame with an air gap.

Shields for roses

Trimmed and removed from the supports, the rose bush is neatly tied in a bundle and bent as far as possible to the ground, on which spruce branches are previously placed. The branches of the lashes must be pinned to the ground in several places with solid wire. Now you need to find or build from scrap materials two wooden shields, about 80 cm wide and a length equal to the length of the pink row. The shields are placed along the bushes with roses like a house and are strengthened with pegs on the outside.

Comment! Small slots and holes are allowed in shields.

From above, the shields are covered with a piece of polyethylene so that it is able to close the shelter from both ends. The film is covered with earth and fixed on the boards with planks. Until severe frosts come (below -10 ° C), the film at the ends can be kept slightly open, but with the onset of cold weather, the ends must also be carefully repaired. In spring, during thaws, the film at the ends can be slightly opened to prevent the roses from drying out.

Frame shelters

In all other cases of the arrangement of rose bushes, except for the ordinary one, homemade frames are used, which can be made from both wire and wooden slats.

Comment! Wooden boxes are often used for small rose bushes.

The branches of rose bushes are fixed on additional supports inside the shelter with a rope so that they do not come into contact with the frame. In these cases, fiberglass will be the best covering for the frame - it does not allow moisture to pass through, but it is well ventilated. In its absence, you can use a dense non-woven material, combining it in the upper part with polyethylene to protect it from precipitation.

Any shelter for the winter for roses is not removed immediately, but gradually opening its individual parts for airing. It is advisable to disassemble the shelters in cloudy weather to minimize sunburn.

Landing

Alba roses are undemanding plants. But artificially creating difficulties for them is not worth it. You can ruin everything.

Therefore, if possible, then look for a sunny, elevated place in the garden, without drafts and winds. If such a site is not found, then the most illuminated and not flooded by rain and melt water will do.

In central Russia, it is optimal to plant a rose in the spring. If you live to the south, then it is possible in the fall. In the spring they are planted before bud break, and in the fall - two weeks before the onset of cold weather.

Almost any soil will do. Although very acidic (pH less than 4.0) and very alkaline (pH greater than 8.0) no plants can withstand.

It will not be superfluous to check the moisture content of the soil when planting roses. To do this, dig a hole 20 cm deep and 8 cm wide, then fill it with water.

1. If the water disappears after 30 minutes, then everything is perfect: the drainage is excellent, the rose is not threatened by excessive watering or drought.

2. If the water disappears after 15 minutes, the soil is too permeable. No matter how much you water, the rose will suffer from drought. It is necessary either to improve the soil, or to abandon planting a rose in this area.

3. If an hour has passed, and the water is still standing, then forget - flowers are not planted on such an area.

If several roses are planted, then the optimal distance between them is 1.5 meters. If a hedge is planned, then the distance is reduced (1 meter).

general characteristics

Roses are an essential decoration for parks and gardens

These flowers belong to a large group of roses, including the following varieties:

• domesticated rosehip

A combination of exquisite beauty and unpretentious character

The foliage of the plant is large, shiny, leathery, disease resistant.

Roses have a very long root system (up to 2 m). This must be borne in mind when choosing a planting site.It should also have a slight slope for excess water to drain off and be well lit in the morning and shaded at lunchtime and afternoon.

Roses belonging to the park species are unpretentious, easy to plant and maintain. But there are nuances. In places where they grow, there should be no north and north-east winds and high groundwater levels. Drafts and excess moisture adversely affect plant growth.

The soil should be loose, nutritious. High humus content is desirable, PH 6-7. The best option would be loamy soil.

Varieties that bloom once are well resistant to cold weather. They do not require winter preparation.

Re-flowering varieties are divided into types:

• very winter hardy (shrubs)
• with medium durability
• frost-resistant with obligatory ducking and cover for the winter period

Reproduction methods

Cuttings are cut with a sharp, necessarily disinfected secateurs

There are several ways to propagate climbing roses. Some give a 100% result, others may surprise you with a discrepancy between the initial characteristics and the obtained ones.

So, you can propagate a rose:

• multiflora (multiflorous)
• Vihura
• McCartney
• Banks
• tea-hybrid

Cutting is the most popular option as it gives 100% rooting. Cuttings are cut from unripe shoots with buds. The length of the cutting is about 15-20 cm with 4-5 buds. The leaves at the base of the cutting are removed, and the upper ones are cut in half.

At the base of the cutting, an oblique environment is made almost under the bud itself, from here the roots will begin to develop. The upper cut is made straight. To increase the likelihood of root formation, the cutting is immersed in a Heteroauxin solution for 12 hours.

The soil is prepared from river coarse sand or a mixture of earth and sand. The stalk is not lowered into the ground deeply, by about 1 - 1.5 cm and trampled with the palm of the hand, moistened. Then the pot is covered with a foil with holes and left in a warm, bright place.

The ideal room temperature is 22 degrees. Rooting takes place over several weeks. During this time, the earth is moistened as it dries. It is possible to transplant a young seedling only after good rooting and the appearance of a young growth.

An example of reproduction by layering from two adult shoots

Reproduction by layering is best done in the spring. To do this, choose a strong annual stem and bend it to the ground so that the top is vertical. Next, next to the bush, they dig a hole up to 20 cm deep and fill it with humus. In places of contact of the shoot with the ground, small cuts are made in the bark. Roots will form here.

The shoot is pressed to the ground, fixed, the top is tied to a vertical support. Part of the shoot for rooting is covered with peat or other light soil. Be sure to watered. Dry soil is not conducive to root formation.

The layering method is a very reliable method of reproduction, it is definitely a high-quality planting material for the next year. The young bush is cut off from the parent and transplanted to a permanent place. In the first year, all buds need to be cut off to allow the skeleton to grow and to strengthen the root system.The rose needs to be fed, protected from pests and diseases, and covered before wintering.

Detailed budding scheme

Budding is a propagation method that involves the use of the mother stock (rose hips) and parts of the varietal rose, which are spliced ​​together. The result is not 100%, there are frequent cases of rejection, but the method works well on Climber roses.

Ripe fresh fruit of a rose with seeds

Seed propagation has many disadvantages. The main one is the duration of the period itself. Only after 3-4 years can you get a bush ready for planting in a permanent place. The second disadvantage is that a plant obtained from seeds can have completely different characteristics than the parent plant. This applies to the shape of the flower, its color, aroma.

The seeds can be sown at home in a pot, or in the garden under a nonwoven shelter. Seed material can be bought or harvested on your own from ripe fruits. Before sowing, they are treated with a solution of hydrogen peroxide.

To accelerate germination, the following activities are carried out:

• keep seeds in a humid environment at high temperatures, for example, on a battery in a container with water
• then sent to the refrigerator for a few days

Such stress activates seed germination, seedlings will appear in 1.5 months. Seedlings are protected from drying out, bright sun, waterlogging, draft. A young annual rose bush is not planted in open ground, kept at home in a cool room. Only next year can it be transferred to the garden with subsequent transplantation to a permanent place.
