Roses can tolerate a pruning in June
Rose care in June and presentation of tendons
Roses are generally considered not very susceptible to disease or the dreaded pest infestation. However, new varieties of extravagant fragrances and the appearance of the flowers are given a higher level of attention than the robustness of the plants, so that in the case of rose care this often has to be remedied by special care measures. June is especially good for this, because now it is necessary to remove the wild shoots that spontaneously emerge from the soil. At the same time, the rose bushes should now be directed in the desired direction, for example by sprouting or tying the shoots. At the end of June, when roses are in bloom, it is the best time of the garden year to refine them or to unite the grown young plants with a particularly beautiful variety.
A professional rose cut provides for stronger growth
This annual cutting after forsythia blossom should also not be too timid and best done with freshly sharpened scissors. This allows you to achieve clean and, above all, plant-friendly interfaces. At the same time, your roses become more resistant to pathogens that could otherwise settle relatively quickly in the frayed cuts. Please remove the older shoots and withered leaves, as these spots are particularly susceptible to harmful fungus spores from the previous year. Likewise, do not forget to dispose of clippings that fall to the ground in the best way completely. But there is more to do:
Rosewoods are also on mulch
In the spring it may be like a full portion of lawn mulch, which may completely cover the root ball of the plants. For the time afterwards, a mixture of fern leaves, marigolds and tagetes is optimal. It is best to do without bark mulch, as this can remove a lot of nitrogen from the soil and acidify the soil as a whole.
Herbal extracts are more effective than synthetic fertilizers
And they are, even manufactured, ultimately even considerably cheaper. For a herbal gruel - yes, that is really so - the following ingredients, of course, from their own cultivation, needed.
With a little water, let this mixture stand for two weeks and ferment. The then quite strong smelling liquid is now mixed again with water at a ratio of 1:10 and may now be used, optionally as a spray or fertilizer, for the roses. If the effort is too high: mince garlic, stinging nettles, chamomile, thyme or feverfew and pour boiling water over them. After cooling down, generously pour the roots with this liquid, once a week if possible.
Trellis aids for roses ensure optimal growth
We have already pointed out in the garden journal that climbing roses, high trunks as well as many species of shrubs and flowerbeds thrive much better in this detailed article. Anyone who would like to put the already convincing look of his own laboriously and over the years pulled roses in the right light, can use the most different trellis aids. Of course, the most decorative is the self-designed rose bow, or the wrought-iron trellis with its sophisticated rope-tightening technique, made in your own hobby cellar. If you do not have the time or the ideas you need:
The fast way to rose trellises and wooden climbing aids
Already with few wood remnants and little expenditure of time wooden trellis can easily be assembled by yourself and screwed tightly against the house wall. A construction manual for a trellis made of wood, which makes every house facade a real eye-catcher, we have found on the portal of baumarkt.de. If you are planning a replica or even have a much better idea for a rose-tree, we would be very happy to receive a reader's photo, which we would like to publish in one of our next news.
