Your Daily Dose of Natural Beauty, courtesy Advertiser Zenith Holland Nursery – Build a Welcoming Entrance with Bushy Miniature Roses:
Abundant pink blooms spilling from a neoclassic urn are paired with a pair of trailing vines to create a stunning entrance display. The bushy roses are a fine choice as they are easy to grow and suggest romance.
Thinking about miniature roses for your entrance?
Here’s a few key points:
-
- Miniature roses tend to be profuse repeat bloomers making a great choice for high visibility areas
- Can grow well in pots
- Need full sun 6+ hours a day
- They like a rich, well-drained, loamy soil.
- Regular fertilizing is essential. Roses tend to be heavy feeders
- A general rule of thumb is to provide at least 1 inch of water each week
- Deep watering, getting the soil wet 12-18 inches down is important during hot weather.
- Water in mornings and avoid getting the leaves wet to discourage “blackspot”
- Deadheading is recommended to encourage repeat blooming
Most novice gardeners will enjoy getting started with roses since they respond well to very basic concepts of plant growth, (hint: give them water, light and feeding) and they reward you with blooms when you are on the right track.
