Do you wish to assist the gardener in creating a lovely rose garden next summer? From November through the beginning of March, they can replant roses. The roots develop better and the rose grows faster into a lovely rose when planted in "tepid" soil. Anyone can accomplish this job with a few extra tools and our simple instruction card with step-by-step instructions.
5 Steps to beautiful roses in your garden:
|
Bare-root roses should be planted as soon as possible after purchase to prevent the roots from drying out and allowing them to develop fully. So dig a hole at least 50 by 50 centimetres in size (about twice as deep and wide as the root ball). |

Make sure your customer is well prepared to work and grow roses this autumn. Pruning shears, shovels, garden gloves, and watering cans can be added to your rose collection quickly.
Protection and preparation
It's a good idea to remove the flower heads or trim back roses before planting them in the fall. Pruning shears and pruning gloves come in handy for this. These gloves are a little longer so you can confidently maneuver around the rose's thorns.Carbon steel pruner
Digging and planting
The plant shovels are made of a strong material that will last for a long period. They can be used for a variety of tasks in the garden, but they're especially useful for planting and transplanting. They're also easy to store because to the leather suspension loop.
A thin flexible (and water-resistant) garden glove is great for planting without getting your hands filthy. The Nitrile Gardening Gloves' nitrile covering on the palm and fingertips ensures not only proper fingertip sensitivity, but also dry hands and adequate grip, even when the glove is wet.
Plant maintenance
Watering is especially important for newly planted plants. Especially in dry conditions and when the root structure isn't fully developed. This is also relevant if you planted them right before winter. Watering roses (shrubs) less regularly but in larger amounts is preferable. It is critical that the water is distributed evenly and does not pool on the plants. It's only logical to use a large watering can with a spray head here. In this way t he dirt will not crumble and the roots will not be exposed.
