An indoor rose is good as long as it grows, blooms and doesn't get sick. To ensure that it stays that way, you need to know the basic rules for caring for the plant.

This is not the most difficult plant to care for. Here are 5 tips to help keep the flower in perfect condition.

1. A Place in the Sun

This plant needs bright but diffused sunlight, and the windows themselves should face the east or west side. Direct sunlight can cause burns on the leaves and flowers.

2. Microclimate

Temperature and humidity determine how often and abundantly the rose will bloom. Ideally, the air temperature should be between 15-25 degrees Celsius with a plus sign. In the cold season, when the heating is on, you need to maintain air humidity with the help of special devices or folk tricks.

3. Watering

It should be regular, but such that the soil always remains moist. For this, watering is carried out when the soil begins to dry out. Water with soft, settled, room temperature water.

4. Soil and fertilizers

The soil should be fertile, drained, loose. If the soil is already compacted, you can use perlite or similar materials.

Florists believe that liquid universal fertilizers are best for rose care. During growth and flowering, the rose is fertilized once every 7 days, and in winter, once every 2 weeks.

5. Trimming

Indoor roses are pruned in spring or autumn. Formative pruning is generally used.
