Floribunda and hybrid tea rose

Care

Conditions of detention

  • When growing a plant in a garden area, you need to choose a bright place that would be shaded during the day.
  • The rose does not tolerate direct sunlight on leaves and flowers.
  • The site should not be in a swampy area and be heavily blown.

Reference. Since floribunda is a winter-hardy plant, it tolerates harsh climatic conditions well.

Watering

  • Abundant watering is recommended during the growth period of the bush, with it the frequency of the procedure is up to 2 times a week.
  • Rare watering is required for floribunda bushes in the fall - at this time, the plant is irrigated no more than once every 2 weeks.
  • In winter, in Central Russia, watering rose bushes in the open field stops, since there is no need for it during this period.

Floribunda is a moisture-loving plant, but excessive moisture and stagnation of liquid in the soil should be avoided.

Pruning

A must for normal plant growth.

  1. In the spring, all frozen and damaged shoots are pruned and the crown of the bush is formed.
  2. Sanitary pruning is performed at the end of autumn.

Garter

Reference. Floribunda bush with normal development does not require additional support and garter.

If the bush is formed in an undesirable way or tilts to the ground, a peg is driven into the soil and the bush is tied with a rope to the support.

Transfer

A rose bush is transplanted in several cases:

  • during the initial planting of a seedling;
  • if necessary, in the rejuvenation of the old bush;
  • if the floribunda does not take root in the selected area.

When transplanting, it is important not to damage the roots of the bush when digging up, otherwise it is necessary to follow the general rules for planting a plant

Preparing for winter

  1. Autumn is a crucial time for a grower: to prepare floribunda bushes for winter "hibernation", roses are cut to the size of a shelter.
  2. Further, the floribunda bushes are spud and fed with organic fertilizers, which is necessary for the most comfortable wintering.
  3. Finally, rose bushes are covered with peat, covered with spruce branches and on top of it - with a durable non-woven material.

More details about growing and caring for Floribunda are described here.

Features of the floribunda group

Floribunda became the second sensational and beloved by millions of summer residents species of roses. It appeared as a result of crossing polyanthus, tea-hybrid and musky varieties. Its clear advantage is its abundant flowering. Not very large buds, consisting of 3-8 pieces, create a gorgeous inflorescence, which attracts their fans.

The obvious differences between the floribunda variety:

  • long flowering - from early summer to late autumn;
  • a wide variety of shapes, shades and terry;
  • abundant flowering, up to 9 pcs. on one stem;
  • not whimsical;
  • cannot be pruned in the fall.

Flower growers like it precisely for their characteristics and the fact that different varieties differ from each other in appearance. That is, the product range of the floribunda group is very wide.

Floribunda roses - care and cultivation

Care is not complicated: loosen the soil in time, remove weeds, do not forget to mulch. The main focus of floribunda care is pruning. To the above information, it should be added that spring pruning is the main, formative and sanitary. Summer pruning aims to increase the flowering time of the rose. But in the fall, this process should not be carried out so as not to weaken the plant before the coming winter.

Keep in mind that weak and poorly growing floribundas should be pruned more actively and stronger than powerful and strong representatives - this process activates the vitality of the rose, provokes the growth of new and renewal of old shoots. If you cut the bush very strongly in the spring, then flowering may come late, with the arrival of August or even September (in some varieties).

Floribunda rose loves abundant watering, with the arrival of summer heat, at least 10 liters of water must be poured under each bush. You need to do this once a week, but with the arrival of extreme heat, you can do it twice. The best time to water roses is early morning or evening, you should not do this on a sunny day

It is especially important to saturate the plant with moisture during bud and foliage blooming, as well as after the first flowers appear.

With the onset of autumn, watering becomes less frequent, especially when it rains.

As for fertilizers, during the active growth phase, it will not be superfluous to feed the plant with a nitrogen supplement or mullein (1 or better 2 times). By the end of summer, floribunda can be fertilized with a potassium-phosphorus supplement (for example, potassium nitrate, potassium sulfate, ammophos, superphosphate). Top dressing is applied as follows: grooves are formed around the bushes, they are poured with water, after the water is absorbed into the ground, it is the turn of liquid fertilizers, after which everything is again filled with water, covered with soil. Keep in mind that in the first year after planting, the bush is not fertilized with anything.

To prevent the appearance of fungi, until the buds on the rose bloom, it should be sprayed with Bordeaux liquid or a solution of copper sulfate.

Insecticides such as "Actellik", "Karbofos", "Rogor" will help from the invasion of pests.

For the winter, the rose must be covered, and before sheltering, cut off all the buds, remove the foliage and unripe shoots (they are red, not green). After that, the shrub is treated with Bordeaux liquid, and all the removed plant fragments are collected and burned.

When trimmed, the floribunda bush should be about 30-40 cm in height.

For the winter, they huddle it up and cover it with peat or river sand, so that the plant is completely covered. For reliability, especially if the winter promises to be cold, you can additionally cover it on top with spruce branches. Alternatively, you can cover the bush with some special material (for example, lutrasil), and then additionally spud it with sand and cover it with pine or spruce branches.

Flower Trimming Instructions

Correct pruning stimulates the formation of strong basal shoots and forms a globular crown with evenly distributed stems. In seedlings, before planting, the stems are slightly shortened and damaged, diseased and too long roots are cut off.

Basic rules for pruning:

  1. in the first spring after planting, they perform strong pruning of the stems - up to 2 - 4 buds (about 15 cm in length), in tall varieties - up to 8 (about 30 cm in length). This is done when the kidneys reach a length of 0.5-0.8 cm;
  2. in the summer after flowering, wilted buds with a small part of the stem should be cut off - then the bush does not form fruits and will bloom again;
  3. in the fall, flowering shoots are slightly shortened and non-flowering, non-lignified and damaged shoots are cut out. Radical pruning is unacceptable, otherwise the bush runs the risk of freezing in winter;
  4. in the second year, in the spring, remove diseased, damaged and frozen shoots, as well as weak, crisscrossing and growing inside the bush. Strong stems shorten up to 4-6 buds (20 cm), lateral ones - up to 3 - 4 buds;
  5. autumn pruning is performed in the same way as in the 1st year.

It is better to burn the removed shoots - they may contain pathogens or harmful insects.

Features of floribunda roses

The name of this group of varieties of roses is translated as "abundant flowering". Any roses in this category have abundant, long-lasting, almost continuous flowering. Floribunda is the result of crossing tea and polyanthus roses at the end of the 19th century. Bushes vary in height: from curbs (about 40 centimeters) to plants over 1 meter high. Flowers come in different shapes. The variety of colors is also wide.

Floribunda roses are also planted in spring and autumn. Water should only be done with warm water. After irrigation, you must immediately loosen the soil. Plants require the introduction of nitrogen fertilizers during the flowering period, and in the fall, after the withering of the flowers, phosphorus-potassium fertilizers. You can propagate these gorgeous flowers by seeds, cuttings, dropping.

Landing

Best planted in spring, April-May. Floribunda rose is a light-loving plant, therefore it should be planted in places where there is a lot of sun, with an orientation to the south - southeast, southwest. A standard hole is dug, approximately 40 cm in diameter and 40 cm deep. The dug hole is abundantly filled with water. Further, about half of a garden bucket of high-quality fertile soil is poured into the pit. The roots of the plant should be omitted in the so-called. "Talker" - a mixture of clay and mullein.

It is believed that in this way the plant takes root better. After that, the plant is placed in the center of the previously prepared planting site and sprinkled with the remains of the earth (fertile mixture). Next, the floribunda rose should be thoroughly shed with water. Mandatory mulching.

Use of Polyantha-Rose in summer cottages

These are versatile roses that are good in single and group plantings, in flower beds - among perennials and annuals.

General information about floribunda roses

This group of roses has gained immense popularity due to its abundant, almost continuous flowering. They are fully consistent with their name, because floribunda literally translated from Latin means "abundantly flowering".

Floribunda roses and their characteristics

The floribunda group includes many varieties, its flowers occupy an intermediate position between hybrid tea roses and polyanthus roses.

By height, the bushes are divided into three subgroups:

  • low (curb) - bushes reach a height of about 40 cm;
  • medium height - from 0.6 m to 0.8 m;
  • high - from 100 cm and above.

Perhaps no other group has such a variety of colors, and clearly surpasses other groups in brightness.Flowers of floribunda roses are simple, double, semi-double with cupped, flat, goblet glasses, collected in multi-flowered or few-flowered inflorescences. Their usual size ranges from 4 to 9 cm.

Most varieties bloom continuously or in three waves. Bright flowers open in carpal inflorescences several at a time, and most varieties of floribunda roses bloom either continuously or have three waves of flowering.

It should be added that these flowers have excellent winter hardiness, resistance to rain and diseases, moreover, for the most part, they can reproduce by cuttings.

In different countries you can find different names of flowers of this group, they are even called simply "bouquet roses" or "bush roses with inflorescences." They are widely used to decorate private gardens, parks, landscaping areas near large office buildings. They are planted in large pots, and the best floribunda roses are used as cut flowers.

The history of floribunda roses

At the beginning of the last century, the family of Danish breeders Poulsen crossed polyanthus roses and hybrid tea, as a result of which in 1924 the first hybrid-polyanthine variety "Else Poulsen" appeared. From the polyanthus, this flower took the carpal inflorescences and good health, and from the hybrid teas - the graceful shape and large size of the glass.

Elsie Poulsen

Later, with repeated multiple crosses of hybrid-polyanthus roses with hybrid tea and other garden varieties, breeders in Denmark, Germany, Great Britain and the United States obtained many varieties that needed to be combined into a separate group. So, in 1952, a group of floribunda roses appeared, which included hybrid-polyanthus varieties.

Although the floribunda group has existed not so long ago, a group of patio roses has already been isolated from it, which includes many, but not all, low-growing varieties with a height of about 50 cm. Varieties with creeping or drooping shoots are allocated to the group of ground cover roses. Plants with small flowers and long, up to 2.5 m shoots have moved to the group of climbing roses. Recently, we increasingly hear the name "grandiflora" - this is how floribunda roses are called today, which have especially large flowers. This group has not yet been officially recognized, but the history of roses continues, who knows what changes await us tomorrow.

Which roses are better than hybrid tea or floribunda

Everyone will answer this question differently. Floribunda roses are undoubtedly inferior to hybrid tea varieties in elegance and bud size, most of them do not have their magical aroma. But they do not bloom in waves, but almost continuously until frost, the beauty of the glass is compensated by the abundance of buds, sometimes completely covering the bush, and even if they are not so exquisite in the floribunda, they are collected in huge brushes, sometimes consisting of dozens of buds.

Most hybrid tea varieties of roses are capricious, require careful care, which determines the quality of the flower, and sometimes even the intensity of the aroma. Almost all varieties do not go beyond the sixth climatic zone; for the northern regions, their choice is very limited. Resistance to typical diseases of roses leaves much to be desired, not to mention the vulnerability of buds to getting wet.

Floribunda is easier to care for, it rarely gets sick, the buds can withstand rainy weather. And most importantly, these roses are frost-hardy, which means that they winter well with proper shelter.

If you live in the southern regions and a qualified gardener does all the work for the owners, then it is the hybrid tea rose that is the best solution for your site. But for people living in an unfriendly cold climate and who want not to bend their backs in flower beds, but to enjoy the beauty of flowers in their rare free moments, floribunda roses will become reliable companions.

Believe me, both groups of roses are beautiful, each has its own special charm.The choice of varieties for the site requires an approach to the issue not only from an aesthetic, but also from a purely practical point of view.

Step by step care instructions

Conditions of detention

When growing hybrid tea roses, the following conditions must be observed:

  • Temperature. It should be mild in summer and cool in winter. The optimal temperature regime remains 20-25 degrees Celsius. But small daily fluctuations for the plant will only be beneficial.
  • Lighting. Hybrid tea roses love warmth and sun. They do not tolerate drafts well. They need to be grown in a well-lit place, protected from northern winds.
  • Humidity. The rose does not have any special requirements for humidity. It is undesirable to spray the bush with water in the summer, as the buds can wilt, and the leaves can get burned.

Watering

Regular moistening of the rose is important in the summer during flowering. Drying out of the earth during this period is dangerous, so you need to water immediately after the soil dries out.

For these purposes, settled and filtered water is used.

Top dressing

In spring and summer, fertilization should be applied every 2 weeks, alternating between mineral and organic nutrients. You need to use standard fertilizers designed for roses.

Pruning

If the pruning is done in a timely manner, the bush will look neat and the bud formation will be early and lush.

Procedure for pruning:

  1. Disinfect scissors or a knife with alcohol.
  2. Remove all yellowed, dried leaves and wilted flowers. Cut flowers to the first leaf.
  3. Before the winter rest, the stems are pruned, which must be shortened by 10 cm. There should be 4-5 buds on each branch.
  4. Treat the cut sites with activated carbon powder.

We suggest watching a video on how to properly prune a hybrid tea rose:

Transfer

It is carried out in early spring in compliance with the following recommendations:

  1. Water the plant well the day before transplanting.
  2. Dig a recess so that the roots fit into it and do not bend - 50-60 cm.
  3. Fill the hole ½ part with a mixture of sand, organic matter and garden soil in equal proportions.
  4. Pour 2 liters of water over the dry soil.
  5. Lower the seedling into the hole, spread the horses and fill all the voids with the nutrient mixture. At the end, tamp the earth and water it.

Bloom

The hybrid tea rose blooms in mid-June to late autumn. At this time, the bushes are covered with the following flowers:

  • yellow;
  • pink;
  • white;
  • purple;
  • orange;
  • red.

The lack of flowering can occur for various reasons, but there are a number of points, subject to which the plant will bloom profusely and for a long time:

  1. Choose a quality seedling.
  2. Provide lighting for the plant.
  3. Choose the right soil: light, air- and moisture-absorbing with a neutral pH.
  4. Do not plant in northern or windy areas.
  5. Insulate the bush in winter qualitatively.

A wonderful condition for breeding a hybrid tea species is frost resistance. In other words, this type of flora is easily grown in the Siberian climate.

However, for the winter, you should carefully cover the plant to avoid freezing.

Breeding varietal roses

Considering that the Double Delight rose is sensitive to sunlight, it should be planted in a well-lit place with diffused light.

It is important to remember that the shade will not allow to bloom fully - the inflorescences will remain pale

Attention! Heat will also not do good results for a hybrid rose species. At high temperatures, the petals are twisted and dried

In this case, the bush must be watered thoroughly and often.

Frequent drafts and winds pose the threat of fungal diseases for the tea beauty. It is advisable to plant roses at a distance of 1 meter from each other.

This is important for the favorable development of the rhizome and the penetration of the required amount of light.

Landing

Determining the method

Seeds are a laborious and unproductive method with a low percentage of germination; they can be bought or collected from an existing bush. The seeds are pecked for several months, then planted in the ground and the seedlings are germinated for another couple of months. It is advisable to grow miniature varieties in a similar way.

Saplings - predominantly picked from shops or nurseries. Saplings are chosen in winter and kept dormant until spring; in spring, the plant is shortened and prepared for planting in a pot or in open ground.

Soil preparation

The soil should be non-acidic, well-drained and breathable. The soil should consist of a mixture:

  • clay;
  • humus;
  • sand.

The main quality of the earth is its richness in organic nutrients.

Important! It is recommended to add bone meal and superphosphate fertilizers to the mixture.

Pot selection

A plastic or clay pot with holes in the bottom and a tray to collect excess water is best. A small floribunda requires a pot of at least 38 cm in diameter; for larger specimens, volumetric pots from 50 cm in diameter are selected.

Process

  • In the pot:
    1. A drainage layer (3 cm) is laid out at the bottom of the flowerpot, then the container is filled 2/3 with the prepared soil mixture.
    2. The existing planting material is placed in the middle.
    3. Then the rest of the soil is added, which should fill the container almost to the brim.
    4. After planting, the soil is abundantly watered and loosened.
  • In open ground:
    1. When planting a plant on a flower bed, it is necessary to dig a deep hole (40-50 cm).
    2. Moisten it and place the seedling vertically in the center of the hole.
    3. Then the seedling is buried in the remnants of the soil and watered abundantly.

Use in landscape design

Floribunda is widely used in landscape gardening. It mainly forms the edges of lawns and hedges. Due to the fact that there are many varieties of different heights and colors, you can create a full-fledged multi-level garden composition of any complexity from floribunda.
