China Roses, grown in East Asia for centuries, this rose is generally less fragrant and has smaller blooms than other older garden roses. They are known for their tendency to “sunshine” or darken over time instead of fading like other roses.

Determine the commission
Roses are woody, climbing, bushy, or bushy plants. Stems are usually spiny, creeping, erect, with alternate leaves, 3 to 20 cm long, bearing 5 to 7 leaflets often serrated. Fragrant flowers, from summer to fall, vary widely in shape, color, and size. The fruit, called rose hip, is red or orange, oval or round. If your rose blooms only once in July, it’s called a “single bloom”. If it flowers again after June, it is called “repeat bloom”.
Planting roses
Planting is ideally carried out from September to March, in frost-free conditions, especially with bare roots. In this case, a good trench (pouring mud over the roots) will make a huge difference. Plant in fertile, cool, well-drained, loamy soil that won’t discolor in direct sunlight (what do you mean requires the moon?). Prune damaged roots and shorten branches to 25 cm. Planting without burying the root collar, stir well around the roots and water a lot when planting. Form a small pot if you are planting late to water the first year.
Fertilize roses
Timeless advice from Groww: fertilize as a preventive measure in November. Maybe, roses just need a little organic fertilizer (rotten manure,…) 100g/m² is enough. There’s nothing stopping you from experimenting with a few little recipes of your own (banana peels for minerals, coffee grounds against bed bugs), but Groww doesn’t guarantee it! Avoid mulching with fresh wood during the flowering period.
Pruning roses
First and foremost, find a quiet spot for you to sit as this post can get a bit long. If you have any rare species of roses, you should take a class with an expert who will explain the gestures and subtleties of pruning the most sensitive roses. Note that roses don’t “need” to be pruned, you do it for maximum bloom. Here, Groww explains ABC pruning methods for the most common scenarios:
-We will distinguish between repeat bloomers, who replant many times after June, and single bloom roses that flower only once. You will prune repeat blooms February through March and single bloom blooms July through September after flowering.
– To prevent stumps from blackening under the cut, always cut just above the bud (an “eye” in gardener’s language) without leaving a few centimeters of rotten wood. Working with a pruner or pruner, always keep the blade on top to just crush the falling branches. Regularly disinfect your blades to prevent disease transmission.
– Maintenance pruning for shrubs, climbing roses and bush roses including removal of overly strong branches (growing under shoots), dead and damaged woody stems, and overly weak stems. Then try to clear the center of your rose so that the light hits everywhere. A rose should have 3 to 7 stems growing from the base, so choose the strongest ones and don’t hesitate to prune an old one from time to time. When this selection is complete, the lateral branches are cut short to 3 or 5 bud eyes (bud counting starts at the base). For roses to have great vitality, you can prune at 7 bud eyes.
– You should also repeat pruning of climbing rose branches that bloom in February-March so that there are 5 to 7 wooden branches from which you can count 5 to 6 bud eyes to shorten the side branches.
– Prune the climbing rose once after flowering is finished by keeping 5 to 7 main woody branches, but cut the secondary branches short to two bud eyes.
– Roses are small, have the habit of growing bushes or climbing, do not need to be pruned too rigorously. Cut the side branches that bother you and clear the center by occasionally trimming dead wood and vital trunks.
Water my roses
Water a lot, but not too often, to allow the roots to absorb the water deeper. Water thoroughly until the soil is wet and forms a small pool around the base of the plant.
Rose Mulch
Roses hate competition, so you either like to hoe and you hoe every two weeks, or you mulch twice a year so that there are 3-4 cm of straw or wood in the ground. Mulch with what you have in reasonable quantities: a few (very few) grass clippings, dry leaves, or even compost, which has not been thoroughly decomposed before winter. It is important to cover.
Commission Check
Pay special attention to damage to the case or wood. The attacks your roses suffer when their leaves (black spots, insects, aphids) are less dangerous to their health.
