Roses are very capricious and whimsical plants.
Moreover, for lush flowering it is important to take proper care of them.
Agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh explained what mistakes in rose care should be avoided in the spring.
No pruning
After winter, roses can adapt slowly. Moreover, if you allow some mistakes, you can worsen the situation.
So, do not forget about sanitary pruning. And it is advisable to do it as early as possible.
Therefore, the first thing to do is to cut off all diseased, frozen and damaged branches.
The cut area must be treated with garden pitch.
Incorrect feeding
After the winter period, the bushes may be weakened. Therefore, they need additional feeding.
First, you need to add nitrogen fertilizers. After 14 days, you can feed the plants with a mineral complex.
After the buds appear, phosphorus and calcium can be added.
It is also important to consider that if the roses were planted in well-fertilized soil, then re-fertilization will only be required after two years.

Moreover, it is absolutely forbidden to use cold water for irrigation.
