A lush rose garden involuntarily attracts the attention of both the owners of the site and random passers-by, who admire the flowering with admiration.

To ensure that the bushes delight you with lush buds, they need to be fed in the second half of spring.

What do roses need?

For luxurious flowering, the plant needs phosphorus. Thanks to this macroelement, many buds are formed.

Potassium is responsible for the size of flowers. In order for the bushes to grow greenery, nitrogen is needed.
