Rose blossom

The White Meidiland rose is a repeat-blooming variety. The flowering process occurs from spring until autumn in two distinct waves. Abundant flowering occurs in the first wave; leaves are practically invisible. During the second wave, long shoots (1.1 m) appear, which subsequently droop due to the weight of the blooming flowers.

Re-blooming is ensured by summer pruning. It is necessary to get rid of faded flowers. This stimulates growth and the appearance of more buds.

Important! After flowering in the fall, overgrown rose bushes should be trimmed and branches infected with fungi should be removed. This will help rejuvenate the plant, prevent the development of diseases, and improve its decorative appearance.

Why it doesn’t bloom and what to do

The ground cover rose Blank Meyandecor may not bloom due to improper care, poor planting location, unsuitable climate, or infection with fungal diseases. You can solve the problem by transplanting the plant to another place, properly pruning it and treating it with antifungal agents.

How to choose a variety

Today, you can find many climbing white roses on the market for goods and services. However, when making a purchase, it is important to understand that such varieties have many similarities with climbing rose hips, which, among other things, are a close relative of roses. It is this relationship that allows unscrupulous sellers to offer rose hips to sellers, passing them off as bushes of white climbing roses. In order not to be deceived, it is recommended to inspect the purchased bushes as carefully as possible. Thus, rose hips will have young shoots of a rich green hue, while white climbing roses will have dark red shoots.

Attention! Many varieties, due to their high growth, need a garter and support.

Reviews from experienced rose growers:

Hardy, very beautiful white rose! (no pink around the edges was noticed - snow-white, without color changes), fluffy, neat, powerfully growing bush; The flowers have a very beautiful fluffy shape, they don’t show the middle, they last a very long time even in the hot sun! The foliage is dark, glossy - a wonderful background for them, always elegant and somehow cheerful! It so happened that 2 times, in August, it was still blooming, and in the spring, in a hurry, I had to replant it... it didn’t disappoint! and overwintered (at -20 only under the hill and a layer of grass) and will bloom for the second time (the flowers from the first flowering, quite presentable, were forcibly pruned so that the bush develops). According to the description, she is a shrub, I would argue... if she is a shrub, then it is not the classic low one, but closer to floribundas with slopes towards ground cover, because the bush is very compact, dense, fluffy, grows harmoniously in width and is all covered with flowers. Therefore, it is perfect for both the foreground and for a good dense border, if necessary. (Bandurina Yulia Valentinovna, Minsk)

I have had this rose for 4 years, it is winter-hardy, it has never been sick with anything, it blooms in two distinct waves, the first is the most abundant, the leaves are almost invisible. There are always buds and flowers between the waves. In the second half of summer, it shoots upward with long shoots, about 1.1 m, which gradually droop under the weight of the blooming flowers. The flower lasts a long time. Tolerates heat well. Grows in full sun. Height approximately 60cm, width 1.20. Self-cleaning, but sometimes the fading flowers turn brown around the edges, I don’t like it, so I tear it off. My rose has no scent at all. (Ulizko Irina Aleksandrovna, Volgograd)

This rose is a PERFECT WHITE GROUNDCOVER! Rose has a lot of advantages: quite large flowers, always absolutely white, they are not afraid of heat, as well as rain, they last a long time and bloom neatly. The foliage is simply a sight to behold: not small, very beautiful, glossy and not just dark green, but even with notes of “malachite” and the white flowers only emphasize it even more. Not a single diseased leaf was noticed during the season! Nothing but delight! (Loginova Nadezhda Nikolaevna, northern Moscow Region)

Wonderful rose!!! Favorite!!! It actually overwinters very well, does not get sick, and blooms in large clusters of up to 10 flowers, or even more. I admire the bloom of this rose!!!! (Oksana Dmitrievna, Kodyma, Odessa region)

Plant care

Rose White Maidiland requires care, like all plants. Basic care rules include a number of procedures.

Trimming

It is recommended to prune the rose at the end of winter, when it has lost its foliage, before spring. For those living in a warm region, it is better to prune in January. All leaves and flowers must be cut off. This will ensure the plant rests before flowering. To do this, use sharp hand pruners or pruners with a sliding blade. Dull pruners will damage the stems and buds.

Important! Black and dark brown stems should also be pruned for further growth.

Top dressing

After planting in the first year, the plant is fed only in the fall with fertilizers containing phosphorus, calcium and potassium. In the second year it will be possible to do spring and summer feeding.

Treatment

In rainy summers, it is recommended to treat the plant with copper sulfate to prevent the appearance of a fungal disease.

Shelter for the winter

Cover the base of the bush with earth, put spruce needles, cover with sand and cover with spruce branches. Carefully remove the lashes from the supports and place them on the spruce branches. Also lay spruce branches on top and wrap everything with film.

Important! In spring, it is necessary to gradually get rid of the shelter, opening the branches slightly, and then freeing the entire plant

Growing a flower: how to plant in open ground

You can grow Maidiland by seeds or seedlings. Each method has its drawbacks.

Selecting a location

Planting is carried out in a well-lit area with partial shade appearing alternately. Constant exposure to the sun will negatively affect the flower. He will get sick or burn out.

It is better to plant the plant on the western or southeastern side. Slightly acidic or neutral, loamy soil with a good drainage system and aeration is especially suitable for planting. The most optimal time for planting is 2-3 weeks before the onset of stable frosts. You can also plant the plant after a period of thawing of the soil.

Selection of seedlings

The seedling must be healthy. It must be trimmed before planting. Strong seedlings usually have 5 buds left. Seedlings of medium strength can have 3 buds. In a weakened seedling, the shoots are shortened to almost their entire length. You only need to leave 3 mm at the base.

Damaged roots are removed before healthy tissue begins. Then the roots of the bush are cut to 20-25 cm and dipped into a solution of water and “Kornevin” for 11-12 hours. Then the roots are moistened with a mixture of clay and mullein in proportions 3x1.

Preparing the site

To prepare the landing site, you need to do the following:

1. At the chosen location, dig a hole measuring 60x60, 70 cm deep. Place the top layer on the edge of the hole.
2. Place a drainage layer made of small pebbles, broken bricks and crushed stone at the bottom of the pit.
3. Place a 40 cm layer of the prepared mixture of soil and fertilizers on top of the drainage. Then sprinkle the hole with a fertile layer.

Important! Planting holes must be prepared 10-14 days before planting roses in them. During this time the earth will have time to settle

Otherwise, the rose will go deeper.

Boarding order

To plant a plant, you need to do this:

1. Place the seedling in the hole. At the same time, carefully straighten the roots and position the plant so that the root collar is approximately 4 cm below the top layer of soil.
2. Sprinkle the planting area with soil and press down.
3. Water the bush well. Each bush requires 10 liters of water.

After 2-3 days, it is necessary to loosen the soil and hill up to a height of 10 cm. If the rose was able to take root, then after 10-15 days the first young shoots will appear. After they appear, the bush can be unplanted. The best time for this procedure is cloudy weather.

Flower propagation

Blanc Meillandecor rose is propagated by cuttings, layering and dividing the bush. Such bushes are classified as self-rooted. If the above-ground part dies, new shoots form from the root collar.

Important! The most common method is propagation by green cuttings. Rooting cuttings can be done directly in the garden bed

Harvesting cuttings occurs at the beginning of lignification of shoots. In the case of roses, this also occurs at the beginning of flowering.

Cuttings are prepared from the middle part of semi-lignified shoots during the flowering period. You need to leave 3 buds. The length of the cutting should be more than 7-10 cm. To avoid unnecessary evaporation of moisture, the leaves are cut to 1/3 or 2/3 of their length. You need to completely get rid of the bottom sheet. In addition, a straight upper cut of the cutting is made 0.5-1 cm above the bud and a lower oblique cut under the bud. After this, the cuttings are planted.
