Caring for overgrown roses
P:My climbing roses rebelled and did not bloom this year. They have grown to a height of 1.5-2.5 meters, but, unfortunately, there is no hope for flowers. They grow in a sunny position and are fed with a special fertilizer for roses. I suppose maybe I gave too much of it.
O:Overfertilizing the plants causes the bruising of the green partsdisadvantage of floweringFertilizers should be used strictly according to the instructions on the packaging. If the fertilizer is in a granular form, and it is not provided with a special measure, you need to get a weight that will help you measurecorrect dose Next year it will be better to refrain from fertilizing, in March you will have to prune the bulky shoots with1/3 length
Correct trimming of tui
P:We have a thuja hedge, about 1.30 m high, which has not been trimmed yet. I would like to know when and to what height it is best to trim it to make it dense? Is it possible to use the cut tips of the thuja?
O:Hedges of coniferous plants are cut in August or before the beginning of vegetation. About1/3 of the length of the last growth is removedThe tops and sides of the shrub are trimmed so that the base of the hedge is slightly wider. Then the light will reach the lower shoots, which will allow the bushes to thicken evenly.
Remember to water and fertilize formedhedges , especially those from thuja. We obtain seedlings fromplantspinnaclesfrom the whole of this year's growth with a small piece of older shoot at the base, the so-calledheel .
