The need to cover a rose depends on the winter hardiness of a particular variety, winter weather conditions and climate.

Each type of rose requires a certain type of protection, but most often the gardener makes a tunnel air-dry shelter.

Unfortunately, bad weather often causes the collapse of the structure.

Let's see what to do if the rose cover is destroyed.
