In an effort to decorate and diversify the garden, summer residents combine flowers, planting them next to each other.

But in this matter one cannot act based on intuition or take into account only aesthetic preferences.

This is especially true for roses. You can't plant everything next to them, otherwise the entire flowerbed may perish.

Hydrangea

At first glance, these may seem like ideal neighbors, but in reality, it is better to avoid such combinations.

The difference is that hydrangea needs more acidic soil. Rose will not feel comfortable in such soil.

Phloxes

Near them, roses often suffer from powdery mildew. The proximity of phloxes and roses stimulates the development of fungal diseases.

Tulips and daffodils

These plants need to be dug up every year. This is a real stress for the root system of roses, which needs rest in the fall.

Good neighbors

You can safely plant gypsophila, astilbe and garden geranium next to the rose. These plants will definitely take root and create a bright combination.
