Roses are undoubtedly one of the most popular plants that can be found in summer cottages.

An expert of the online publication Belnovosti, agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh told how to feed flowers with natural fertilizers with the arrival of spring.

Nitrogen plays an important role in this process – it makes plants healthy and buds dense, so roses will respond favorably to the introduction of any manure – be it cow or horse manure in dry or “composted” form.

For bushes that have just appeared in your flower bed, it is worth using a solution prepared from 1 part mullein and 3 parts water.

The same roses, whose age is one year or more, need microelements, which they can be provided with thanks to an ash solution.

The mullein solution is applied a second time before the buds open. This time, stick to the same proportions when preparing the nutrient solution.

According to experienced gardeners, you can’t find anything more useful for rose bushes than grass cut from your own plot.

Fill the raw material with water and leave for a day so that the fertilizer is properly infused, then use the resulting infusion for watering. One plant will need 0.5 liters of such a composition.
