The procedure of covering roses should be one of the most important for every summer resident, since the safety of the plants depends on it.
Therefore, it is worth remembering the basic rules.
What do they consist of?
Final feeding
In order for roses to survive the winter normally, they need to be given a final top dressing. This is done four weeks before the real frosts come.
Select compositions that contain phosphorus and potassium.
Trimming
This procedure should also be carried out before you decide to cover the roses for the winter. It is also worth carrying out the necessary treatments against diseases and insects in any usual way.
It would be a good idea to remove all weeds and plant debris.
Shelter
First, you need to place the rose shoots on the so-called "pillow". Most often, it consists of hay. Then use any high-quality covering material. It is recommended to fold it in two layers.
If everything is done correctly, the roses will successfully survive even a very cold winter.
