The harvested flowers should be put in warm water and kept in 4-5 degrees of temperature. If the roses must be kept for around two weeks, they can be kept in -1 to 1 degrees, but these roses shouldn’t be put in water, instead they should be kept in air and moisture proof boxes. When retrieving the roses from storage, stems should be cut a bit and they should be put in hot water, around 27 to 30 degrees.

When examining a rose shoot, there are 2 to 5 leaves with 5 leaflets in the middle, and just below and above these are smaller leaves with 3 leaflets and other leaves. Just below the rose bud there are, in order, a thin,long leaflet, a leaf with 3 leaflets, and the rose buds below the first leaf with 5 leaflets. These are sharp. Below these, the rose buds are round, and the units to the bottom of the shoot are straight.
Knowing the state of rose buds on the shoot is very important for harvesting. If these buds are left to flower, the sharp buds will make short stemmed roses, which isn’t of high quality. Because of this, the stem should be cut from the soft deadheading spot, just below the first 5 leafleted leaf. This also helps the round buds to grow long stemmed roses.
It must be noted that the variety of rose is also important for deciding when to harvest. While the yellow roses are harvested before fully maturing, the red and pink ones should be harvested when the outer petals are starting to open.

There are four reasons for trimming your roses:
1 – Rejuvenation
2 – Efficiency Enhancement
3 – Quality Enhancement
4 – Forming
Each year regardless of how well taken care of, in time, it’s known that roses will shorten, and the development of the branches will stop, and become dry. In this case, roses should be cut just above the grafting point to achieve [click to continue…]
The period between November and March is the best for planting the roses. But they could be planted between 15th of October and end of April. Winter isn’t usually suitable for planting because of the hardness of the soil. If planting is done in late April, great care must be taken with watering. [click to continue…]
For the greenhouse roses, carbon dioxide used with the water is important. Since more photosynthesis improves the growth rate of roses, more carbon dioxide is benefical. The normal amount of carbon dioxide in air is around 300 ppms. The carbon dioxide in the air could be refreshed by ventilation or burning alcohol in the green house.
Depending on the temperature inside the greenhouse, the moisture should be kept in line for the best results. For example, if the temperature is 24 degrees, %60 humidity is suitable. While too much moisture causes more illness in the greenhouse, too little of it can also be detrimental for the growth. The plant loses too much water, the growth stops and the shoots become shorter.

For the most of the roses, 16 degrees of night temperature is ideal. For the sunny days, it’s suitable if the temperature is 5-7 degrees higher than this inside the greenhouse. In higher temperatures, while the roses grow faster, the quality of production is lower. It is very important to control the temperature for the newly planted roses. [click to continue…]
In order to make the roses grow fast and take root easily, the soil must be prepared very well. If the soil has never been
worked on before, it must be processed deeply.
If the soil is sandy, heavy fertilizers ( composite ones, such as cattle manure ) work best. If the soil is rich in clay and/or limestone, the evergreen plant remains, or animal manure work best. [click to continue…]
The roses prefer fresh soil rich in clay and organic nutrients. This is the kind of soil which sticks to the foot when
it’s wet, but otherwise dries easily and when it isn’t too dry or wet, easy to work on. But also, the roses can grow in
any kind of garden soil. They only don’t grow in soil extremely rich in clay, sand or limestone.
According to various studies, the necessities of roses are these: [click to continue…]
