If you are like me you love roses. But as you know, they develop quite a reputation over the years for being difficult to grow. This doesn’t have to be true. To grow roses successfully, you just have to start by placing the plants in the right place and following a few basic planting principles. Whenever I add roses to my garden that I've ordered through the mail, the first thing I do is to remove them from the plastic and make sure that my order is complete. I soak these roots in water to rehydrate the plants but for no more than 24 hours.
When you’re planting your roses placing them properly in the garden is critical. You want to make sure that they get at least 6 hours of direct sunlight a day, you also want to make sure that you get plenty of good air circulation you see this will help cut down on fungal problems later in the season. As for the soil, you want a good rich garden alone that is well drained.
To give my roses a boost, I always like to amend my existing garden soil. I take 2 parts of the existing soil to one part of my homemade composed and mix them with one part well rotted veneer in my wheelbarrow. The size of the hole needs to be at least large enough to spread all of the root out in about 14 to 18 inches deep. These hybrid types need to be about to 3 to 4 feet apart.
When I plant, I gently spread the roots and alternate the layers of soil mix with the solution of fish emulsion and water to give them a good start. Now, once these little guys are nestled into their new home in just a few months you won’t believe the results. From the garden, I’m Allen smith.
