Enchanting flower abundance: roses in the garden
For every garden and for almost every location there are the pure roses. Although the flowers love air, light, sun and good soil, but even without ideal conditions, you do not have to do without the distinctive flowering plants. There are also suitable varieties for difficult places and climatic conditions.
Which roses are suitable for which garden?
For example, in rainy locations you should place special emphasis on rain-resistant roses, while for regions with cold winters, frost-hard rose varieties are especially recommended. Generally speaking, sturdy varieties are suitable for less ideal places. These include the so-called ADR roses. The ADR award-winning rose varieties had to prove themselves over three years in eleven different test gardens and without the use of chemical sprays. In the final assessment, health, impermanence and scent play an important role. But even among the untested roses - whether they are old or new varieties - you will also find many robust beauties.
Roses for frost-prone regions
In areas with severe winters, roses should either be protected accordingly or, if you are afraid of the hibernation, frost-hardy varieties will be planted immediately. These include many once-blooming shrub and climbing roses. Since the flowering of these rose varieties is completed early in the year, the wood can mature well before winter and is therefore less at risk from frost damage. The right care (eg planting the finishing point in the soil) can also influence the winter hardiness of the plants.
Roses for rainy areas
In rainy regions densely filled rose petals suffer from the often heavy rainfall. In this case, draw simple and half-filled roses the more heavily filled. Little suitable for these locations are also white-flowering varieties that can turn brownish when too much humidity. In addition, you should pay attention in the choice of variety on a good resistance to blackspot, as the leaves remain constantly wet and can not dry well.
Roses for partially shaded locations and northern locations
Many roses still grow in partially shaded locations when they get there four to five hours of sun a day. The fullness of the flowers is less than in the full sun. Roses with dark red or deep purple flowers even favor these places, because dark flowers absorb the sun's rays more than bright ones and therefore burn easily. Even for northern locations can still find roses, such as the climbing roses "violet blue", "Alberic Barbier" and "New Dawn".
Tips
In addition, you can combine the different types of roses and varieties so that you can admire rose petals in your garden all year round. Also among the roses there are early as well as late and also enduring flowering varieties.
