Bloom

When does it blossom and how does it happen?

Rosa Pink Mondial has a long and lush flowering, lasting from early June to late autumn. Buds on the bush, like cut flowers in a bouquet, last about two weeks.

Features of care before and after flowering

The key ingredients of care are dressing and trimming. Depending on the month of the season, there are peculiarities of top dressing and trimming, which will be described in more detail below.

What to do if it does not blossom?

The main reasons for the lack of flowering roses are associated with non-compliance with the rules of caring for the plant:

• the landing site is insufficiently lit or too windy;
• improperly prepared soil for planting or the plant is not deeply buried when planting;
• incorrect pruning of shoots;
• poor insulation of the bush in severe frosts;
• also the cause may be a poor-quality seedling.

Use in landscape design

This variety has gained wide popularity in landscape design - the bush of this variety looks good both as a separately growing plant and in combination with wild herbs and other flowers. In addition, the Pink Mondial rose is often used to create hedges.

Step-by-step care instructions

Seat selection

You can determine the following requirements for the landing site:

• sufficient illumination of the site, while the scorching sun on the flowers is contraindicated;
• the planting site should be done on a small elevation, so that when watering, the water does not stagnate and the roots do not rot;
• the rose should be planted in a place protected from strong winds and drafts, but at the same time sufficiently ventilated.

The soil

Pink Mondial is best suited for chernozem or loamy soil with an acid-base reaction of 5.6-7.3 pH, as it needs a weakly acidic, nutritious and loose soil that easily passes air to the roots.

Landing

The most favorable month for planting a rose is the beginning of May, when the soil is already warm enough. When landing, do the following:

1. Dig a hole 60 cm deep, pour 10 cm thick drainage on the bottom (small stones, gravel, coarse sand).
2. Pour fertile soil mixed with compost.
3. Dip the sapling for several minutes in water or clay solution. If the roots have damaged shoots, remove them.
4. To form additional stems above the vaccine, the seedling must be lowered into the pit so that the root neck is a couple of centimeters below the ground.
5. If the pit is dry, pour about 2 liters of water into it.
6. To fill a hole with a plant, having slightly tamped, and to pour water at room temperature. If necessary, add soil if the soil has settled.

If the seedling is purchased a few weeks before planting, it can be placed in a box, sprinkled with moist sand a little, or planted in a pot. If the seedling was bought in summer or autumn, it is worthwhile to remove it in a cool dark place until spring, after placing it in a box and completely falling asleep with wet sand.

Temperature

Rosa Mondial grows particularly well in the southern regions. Also, the rose will bloom well in the middle lane and in more northern areas.

Watering

On hot days and in dry soil, watering should be carried out in the evening, and be frequent and plentiful - an average of 10 liters per bush. If the climate is humid, watering once a week is sufficient. By the end of summer, watering is reduced and completely stops in September.

Top dressing

When choosing a pink Mondial rose top dressing, it is worth using manure, deciduous humus or other organic top dressing. This will help protect the plant from pests, drying out and rotting. In spring, it is better to feed the rose with nitrogen fertilizers, and in summer and autumn - potassium and phosphorus.

Pruning

Pruning plays a crucial role in caring for the rose, as it contributes to better flowering. In spring, before flowering begins, it is necessary to cut the bush by 15 cm, leaving 2-3 buds on healthy and strong shoots - this will allow you to enjoy the first flowering of the bush already in June.

After flowering, prune regularly., removing faded flowers with a small part of the shoot - this will contribute to abundant flowering. During the last autumn pruning, all damaged and unripe shoots are removed, but do not prune them too much so as not to harm the plant.

Transfer

The most favorable time for transplanting roses is early spring and early autumn. In order for the plant to experience the least stress, it is desirable that the conditions in the new place be as close as possible to the previous ones.

1. Landing pit should be prepared 2-3 weeks before the transplant:
   • remove weeds;
   • put drainage;
   • pour fertile land.
2. You need to dig a rose with the largest possible earthen lump. After the bush is dug up, an earthen lump should be put on a piece of cloth and drag to a new place. The depth of the landing pit should be such that the bush sprinkled with earth is at the same level as in the previous place.
3. Next, you need to water the soil with water and add soil if the soil is a little donkey.

Preparation for winter

In winter, frosts of up to -7 degrees are not scary for the rose and will help her prepare for winter.

1. With the onset of steady colds, you should spud the trimmed bush with compost, humus or ordinary garden soil to a height of up to 20 cm.
2. Then form a framework of greenhouse arcs (20-30 cm high above the plant).
3. Install insulation material.
4. Stretch the plastic film from above, leaving side vents.

Breeding

Roses are propagated by cuttings, since only in this case the plant retains its varietal qualities. Cuttings are harvested from young strong bushes after the first wave of flowering:

1. each stem (leaves and thorns removed) is cut into cuttings with a length of 15 to 30 cm, three buds on each;
2. the upper cut of the handle is made straight, a centimeter higher than the upper kidney, and sealed with paraffin from a candle; the lower section should be at an acute angle a centimeter below the last kidney;
3. Further, the cuttings should be left for a day in a root solution, potassium permanganate or a honey solution;
4. after this, the cuttings can be dug in a flower pot at home or in a shady place in the garden, and covered with a plastic or glass container;
5. as soon as the first shoots appear (after about a month), you can take off the jars briefly, gradually increasing the time spent outdoors (starting from 5 minutes), since young shoots are very sensitive to the sun, wind and cold air;
6. after the shoots regrowth, young cuttings can be planted in a regular place in the usual way.

Diseases and Pests

Although the pink Mondial rose has increased immunity to diseases and pests, it is worthwhile to regularly carry out preventive measures using special solutions and mixtures. And a marigold planted nearby will become an assistant in pest control by isolating special enzymes.

Knowing all the intricacies of growing and the rules for caring for the Pink Mondial rose, you can achieve excellent results and admire the abundantly flowering bush throughout the summer period. Incredibly beautiful buds of this variety will delight you for a long time both on bushes in the garden, and in cut flowers.
