For many people, the rose is associated with the queen of flowers, the favorite of the Little Prince from a fairy tale or a symbol of love. Her bushes can be found both in apartments in pots, and on open sites. At the same time, simply planting a bush and forgetting about it will not work: a rose requires a certain care, one of the points of which is transplanting.

These rules must be observed during the initial planting of the bushes, during reproduction and during transplantation.

Feeding rules

Starting from the second year, you must regularly feed. During the season you will need to make it 4 times:

  1. In the spring, immediately after pruning and after 2 weeks, ammonium sulfate is applied - 20 g per 1 square meter. m;
  2. When forming buds make universal fertilizer;
  3. After flowering, it is fed with fertilizers with microelements - 30 g per 1 sq. M. m;
  4. In September comes the turn of phosphorus and potassium - 30 g per 1 square. m

Instead of mineral fertilizers, you can make organic: ash, bird droppings, manure;

Pruning a bush

Bush pruned 3 times:

When pruning is best to remove the old branches, leaving the most young and strong. The age can be determined by the color of the bark: the darker it is, the longer the mote lives.

Transplant features

This is a necessary procedure for almost all rose bushes. It is necessary for the separation of too thick bushes, plant reproduction and changes in the landscape itself, as well as causes may be poor neighborhood or deterioration of the soil. It is best to replant a 2-3-year-old bush: younger ones are still weak, and adults are rooted in place. But if necessary, you can transplant and "old men".

When transplanting it is important to comply with all the above conditions, as well as select the most appropriate time.

When to transplant

Often the question arises as to when it is better to replant the rose - in the fall or spring. This can be done at any time, but each has certain pros and cons.

Choosing a place

In order to transplant a rose, first of all it is necessary to choose a suitable place. It should be a well-lit area with suitable soil and without unnecessarily “large” neighbors. Next, you need to prepare it:

Bush preparation

In addition to the land, you need to prepare the rose itself:

Features of spring and autumn transplantation

If transplantation takes place in spring, supplementary feed is immediately applied under the bush (20 g of nitrogen fertilizers and 15 g of potash-phosphate fertilizers), the soil is loosened. Watering can begin in 3-4 days, the first 3-4 weeks it is necessary to protect the plant from direct sunlight.

Autumn transplant procedure is no different from the one described above, only there is no need for watering and fertilizer. Especially strict ban on nitrogenous fertilizers.

Transplant of old rose

It is not recommended to change the “place of residence” of the old bush, but if such a need nevertheless arose, it is necessary to try to get the rose to receive as little stress as possible.

How to transplant a blooming rose

Before digging out of the bush, cut off all the flowers and buds, otherwise they will pull the sap over themselves, and during transplantation it is necessary to form the root system. Leaving the buds is useless, as they still quickly wilted.

Transplanting a climbing rose can cause certain problems. First of all, it is necessary to remove the plant from the support and shorten it by a third or even half, otherwise it will be difficult to transplant. This is especially true for climing.

"Ramblera", which usually do not grow more than 3-4 m, should be left, but in August they pinch their top, and after the end of flowering, all stems older than 2 years are completely removed. This will help update the climbing rose.

If the transplant occurred before winter, you will need to immediately prepare a climbing rose for the cold:

  1. Rose stalks are tied together;
  2. Arcs are installed above the bush (metal is better); spruce trees are folded on them;
  3. Over the spruce branches covered with polyethylene or roofing felt. The whole structure is obtained up to 50 cm high and looks like a hut;
  4. In the spring, the first step is to remove the film and leave the branches for a while so that the rose does not get burned. When the air warms up, remove all the shelter.

Despite some difficulties with growing and transplanting, the rose remains one of the favorite flowers of gardeners. If you replant the shrub correctly, to maintain the health and appearance of roses is easy.

Everyone knows that the best time for planting garden beauties is spring and autumn. But sometimes there is an urgent need for some reason to transplant a rose bush in the summer.

1. Why is it necessary to transplant an adult rose

By mid-July, all newly purchased seedlings are already planted and taken root. Many roses  already bloomed. Blooming and long-planted rose bushes.

In connection with the redevelopment of the garden or construction work there is a need to move the rose bushes to a new place. The reason for transplantation may be too overgrown plants that interfere with each other, an unfortunate place for the initial planting. But these reasons must be strong enough so that the transplant cannot be postponed to mid-September.

2. Preparation of roses for transplanting

Try to choose a rainy or cloudy day for transplanting.

In a day - two sprinkle the plant with any preparation that will help smooth out the stress: Epin, Zircon, HB-101.

Cut off all the flowers and buds, cut a large plant, leaving shoots about 40 cm long. In the young bush also remove the flowers and buds, cut off the young shoots.

Wide branchy bushes for convenience, tie a rope. So the bush will be easier to move to a new place.

Before digging, water the plant to keep as much land as possible on the roots.

3. How to dig adult roses

The root system usually takes up an area equal to the projection of the crown. We must try to dig as much as possible earthen room, keeping the maximum number of roots.

Along the perimeter of the crown we dig a trench. As we deepen, we wrap the earth with a cloth or wrap. The longest roots can be cut. After the bush is dug, it can be moved to the right place.

4. Landing

At the new site we dig a planting hole of a little larger than the excavated excavation room. We place in it an excavated bush of a rose, half fall asleep with earth and water it abundantly. After the water is absorbed, we fall asleep to the level to which it had been buried before. Water again. Rootsin or heteroauxin can be added to the water for irrigation.

Every gardener has to spend a lot of time in the garden. Something to alter, transplant plants. This is facilitated by the search for the best conditions for them, various aesthetic tasks. All this causes a lot of trouble. In addition to only purchased, perennial adult bushes, such as roses, are subject to transplantation. But this operation also requires certain techniques.

Terms of transplanting roses

The best time for transplanting roses is the beginning of spring and the end of summer, until mid-September.

Sometimes it happens that the transplanted rose does not have time to settle down, but it is already beating frosts. Gardeners often hold discussions on the topic, why not plant roses in the summer, like many other flowers.

The fact is that roses are not very favorable not only for summer transplants, but also do not like when they are transplanted at all. And therefore it is better to do this infrequently. But if there is no other way out, then they say that sometimes it is possible. But at the same time the beauties will become capricious, and it is hardly possible to wait for flowering next season.

At the beginning of the transplant, it is advised to trim the bush to the maximum - then all the forces in the new place will throw the roots at themselves, get stronger and take root. If the bush is high, then the shoots leave no more than half a meter. At the same time pruned young, green shoots, as well as buds and flowers. If the bush is small, then you still need to trim, but try not to damage the thin roots.

After the summer transplant, you need to water the roses often. Wet soil helps the roots take nutrients.

But the direct rays of the sun are undesirable. Therefore, plants as much as possible better shade. Roses adore spraying, cool showers, and the transplant itself is best done on an overcast day.

Stages of transplanting roses:

  1. First you need to dig a hole for planting. Remove from it and nearby weeds and their roots. It is desirable that the pit stood for several days, and the earth subsided slightly.
  2. Roses are advised not so much to transplant, how many to hand over. This is the process of digging up roots with a lump of earth. Thus, the rhizome will not take long to settle down, and the roses will not hurt. But the transfer of roses is not easy. The earth around the roots is loose and immediately crumbling. Therefore, the plant is first watered abundantly, and then dug. Wet land will hold well.
  3. To thorny branches do not interfere, they are bound.
  4. If the rose bush is large, then it will be very difficult for one person to move the roots together with a lump of earth to another place, so it’s better to have an assistant.
  5. A narrow ditch is dug around the flower, but it needs to be quite deep. This is how an earthen room is formed. It is tied with a cloth or plastic, and podkapyvayut under the root. Too long rhizomes can be chopped off. With proper care, the rose will not do much harm.
  6. Under the base of the bush insert a durable tool, for example scrap. A shovel in this case may break. Pulling up the bush with a crowbar, pull out the bush and put it on a piece of cloth. It is very convenient to transfer it to a new place. If the plant is prepared for transportation, then the wrap is wrapped in a cloth and ensure that it is always wet.
  7. A rose with a clod of earth is placed in a prepared landing pit. In this case, the ground level should remain the same as in the previous place. If necessary, you need to dig a hole or, on the contrary, fill the ground.
  8. After installing the rose, the pit is covered with earth to half, and the harness is removed. After that, the process stops, as the rose needs to be poured abundantly with water. Wait for a while until the water is absorbed all. Then the ground can already be filled to the top. The rose is watered once more, and at the base of the plant a tubercle is formed from the ground. Then it is compacted so that no voids remain near the roots.

Roses, despite the beauty and elegance, quite persistent. Although transplants and flowers do not like, but without them, can not do because of the depletion of the soil.

It is possible to replant garden beauty both in spring and in autumn, however, in areas with cold winters, spring is the preferred time for planting in an open field. This is especially true for standard roses - planted in spring, they will have time to prepare the root system over the summer and will not die in the winter frost.

Features of spring roses transplant

Usually, the landing time falls on April, when the cold has already receded, and the first buds have not yet woken up and the plant is ready to spend its vitality on a confident rooting in a new place.

However, prepare for this responsible procedure for the grower need in advance, three weeks or a month before the scheduled date of transplantation of a rosebush.

Inventory for transplant:

  • tools (shovel, fork, pruner, bucket, watering can);
  • rags (burlap, natural fabric);
  • lapnik or screen for shading from the sun.

Fertilizers:

  1. Dead manure (cow, horse or chicken), compost.
  2. Mineral fertilizers.
  3. Ash or lime, bone meal or egg shell.
  4. Nitrogen fertilizers.

The first thing you should worry about before transplanting a flower princess is choosing the right place  for her new residence. Loving the sun's warmth and open space, the rose feels great on the southern slopes, protected from the cold wind.

At the same time, she does not like the proximity of buildings that create air stagnation. The rose is picky for other plants located in the neighborhood, which must be taken into account when choosing a site for transplanting.

Site preparation

The accumulation of melt waters in spring and the stagnation of rainwater are detrimental to the rose, therefore preparing a place for transplanting is necessary take care of good drainage  and lift the plot if groundwater is close to the soil surface.

Soil before transplanting roses prepared in advance. Not less than 40 cm create a layer of loose, rich in organic soil with a weakly acid reaction.

To do this, mix the soil and well-rotted manure or compost in equal parts, add a little ash or lime and bone meal. As a result, the level of acidity should be at a pH of 6.5–7.

The method of preparation of the pit

The size of the pit or trench is done with a reserve so that a lump of earth can fit into it, with which the rose will be transplanted. You can navigate along the crown of the plant - its projection on the ground approximately corresponds to the area occupied by the root system.

The pit size is usually considered sufficient. 60 cm wide and 45 cm deep. If not a pit is prepared, but a trench, then it is better to locate it from north to south - this will improve the coverage of future plantings.

On sandy soils, the bottom of the pit is filled with a layer of clay by seven cm, so that the soil dries out less. For clay plots, on the contrary, the bottom is covered with large sand and gravelBy preventing overmoistening of the future residence of the rose bush. The prepared pit should be allowed to stand for 2–3 weeks, after which the intended rose bush can be transplanted into it.

Preparing a bush for transplanting

Noticing the width of the crown selected for transplanting roses, it is tightly tied so that the branches of the bush do not interfere with the work. To form a dense lump of earth around the roots, the plant is watered abundantly.

When water is absorbed and compacts the soil, you can start digging a bush around the previously planned area of ​​the roots. Grafted roses have a central taproot extending deep into the ground.

Such a root just have to chop off. Unvaccinated bushes are characterized by a superficial location of the root system, so there will be no such problem with them.

When the trench around the bush has been dug 30–40 cm deep, you can remove the plant and lay it together with the earthy clod on a previously prepared rag.

If the bush and the lump of earth corresponding to it are very large, tying with rags can be done as you dig a trench, carefully laying the fabric around the bush and, having well fixed the ground with matter, take the rose out of the ground.

If the place where the rose is to be transplanted is far away and the bush will take a long time to be transported, the fabric holding the earth com will be sprinkle regularly.

Transfer

So, the rosebush has been delivered to the place of new residence and is ready for transplanting. The fabric that keeps the ground from falling down can be removed, or it can be left, if there is a fear that this procedure may damage the integrity of the earth clod.

Prepared for transplanting a plant pit, should be well spilled, and, until the water is absorbed, establish a rose bush in it, trying to maintain the same depth at which the rose grew in the same place. At this stage, you can add to the water a stimulant for root growth.

In several stages, the rose is covered with earth and watered so that no voids form. Ramming the soil around the newcomer make mineral fertilizers, retreating 15 cm from the shoots, and loosening the ground under a bush, but not deep, no more than 10 cm. After that, the rose is watered once more and mulch the earth around it.

If, while transplanting a rose, it was not possible to save the earthen room and it still crumbled, do not panic, the plant will not die, only the transplant procedure will change.

Since the roots of the roses have become bare, it's time to take a chance to examine them and cut off the damaged ones. For two hours, you can soak the roots in a solution that stimulates their growth, means suitable for this variety.

At the bottom of the pit prepared for transplant, an earthen mound is poured over which the roots of the rose are distributed so that the root neck of the grafted rose is 3–5 cm below ground level.

The bush is grafted towards the south, for the own-rooted rose it is flush with the ground level, and for a climbing rose the root collar will have to be 10–15 cm.

Alternately adding water and earth, the plant is tamped, and when the hole is completely filled, they trample down so that the soil lies more closely on the roots of the rose and does not contain air voids. Next, the ground water, loosen, fertilize  and mulch as well, as they do when a rose is transplanted along with a clod of earth.

The branches of the rose, connected to make it easier to replant the bush, should now be released and brought in accordance with the root system, which inevitably received damage during the manipulations.

The shoots are cut at a distance of about 25−30 cm from the neck of the root, making a cut above the outer bud. Cut out all the broken and not ripe stems, remove dried leaves. When pruning and shaping the bush, they are guided by the peculiarities and recommendations for them specific to this particular rose variety.

Care after transplant

The first time after transplantation, somewhere in the course of a month, it is desirable to shade the plant, covering it from direct sunlight. To protect a weakened after transplanting a rose from the invasion of aphids, it is sprayed copper sulphate solution  and some means of pests.

The first three to five days after transplantation, the plant does not disturb, give it to come to life. At the end of these days rose begin to water regularly, and in 10–12 days nitrogen fertilizers are applied.

In the first year after transplantation, if the rosebush is still weak, you will have to sacrifice flowering and remove all budsin order to give the plant how to get stronger and develop the root system. Replanting the rose again is recommended no earlier than three years.

Roses - one of the most popular garden plants. It is rare to meet the owner of a country house, who declined a similar decoration of the garden. But in order for these flowers to delight the owners and guests with their beauty and fragrance, you need to know when to replant the roses, so that this plant grows well, takes roots and gives its magnificent flowering to those around it. Often it is associated with the transplant of roses that it is difficult to grow this crop. Inexperienced gardeners do not pay due attention to this issue, and as a result they receive bushes that are not able to settle down in a new place, do not tolerate changes in climatic conditions and have a weak resistance to garden diseases. To avoid such problems, it is necessary to consider the rules of care and planting roses and stick to them.

The easiest way to get a beautiful front lawn

You, of course, saw the perfect lawn in the cinema, on the alley, and possibly on the neighboring lawn. Those who have ever tried to grow a green field in their own area will no doubt say that this is a great deal of work. The lawn requires careful planting, care, fertilizer, watering. However, only inexperienced gardeners think this way, professionals have long known about innovative means - liquid lawn AquaGrazz.

A rose transplant can be caused by a variety of reasons:

  • Redevelopment of the infield. It is not always possible to immediately plan the placement of objects on the site or over time there is a need for additional construction, then the already finished elements of landscape design, such as flower beds, have to be shifted or completely transferred.
  • Unfavorable Neighborhood . In some cases, planted rose bushes start to suffer from external factors that cannot be fenced or eliminated. So after planting it may be that this area is submerged, overly shaded, or adjacent to plants that conflict with roses. Because of this placement, plants often get sick, grow weak and may even die.
  • Bad ground. Sometimes, due to loose sandy soil, the root system of a plant can deepen beyond measure, which causes rotting and flower diseases. And when the clay soil bushes unnecessarily come to the surface, which causes drying and drying of the root. In addition, the old beds may be depleted land, which will cause a lack of necessary elements for the formation and growth of flowers.


  • Bad conditions. Poor growth, lack of flowering, drying of the buds and the death of the shoots often indicates that the necessary conditions for the quality growth and development of the flowering plant are not complied with.
  • The growth of bushes. If you properly care for garden roses, then sooner or later the bushes grow to an enormous size, but at the same time lose all the decorative effect and clutter the area with impassable thickets.

The solution for all the above problems can be a transplant of garden roses. But in order not to destroy the plant and do all the work correctly, you need to have considerable experience, or you can use the experience of generations and simple rules for planting bushes to a new place.

Choosing a place under the rose garden

For the cultivation of roses, it is extremely important to find the right place so that a transplant is not required due to poor conditions. Of course, you can experiment, but it is better to think of a place for a future flowerbed once and enjoy the result.

The mandatory conditions that will ensure the normal growth and full development of the flower bed with roses include:


  • Illumination. Roses for intensive growth and spectacular flowering need a lot of light, so you should study the backyard plot in order to identify areas where the sun's rays fall most of the day. The shadow of the buildings and trees, which will cover the bushes from the sun, will adversely affect the flowering process, so the place for the rosary should be located on the illuminated area.
  • Windproof. Strong or constant winds are capable of disrupting the harmony of flowering beds, so it is worth considering the arrangement so that the plants are protected from aggressive weathering. Trees, ornamental shrubs and garden barriers will help to cope with the task perfectly. This arrangement of flowers will provide active summer bloom, and will protect from winter blizzards.
  • Moisture. The location at the foot of the slopes or in the lowlands will contribute to the accumulation of excess water in the soil, which adversely affects the root system of roses and causes decay, and in the fall and winter - freezing.


  • Soil composition. The presence of clay and mineral-rich soil is a plus for growing roses. But if the site does not meet the requirements for soils, then it is possible to start a specialized soil for the flower bed and replenish it in a timely manner.

It is best to choose a place for future flower beds in the fall. So you can appreciate all the advantages and disadvantages of the site and choose the best place for roses.

If you do all the work correctly and take into account various factors of external influence, then you will not need a transplant anymore, and a well-formed rosary will please you for many years. For optimal effect, you need to follow the basic rules for planting old bushes to a new place:

  • Time. The optimal period for transplanting a new bush to new conditions is early spring or mid-autumn. If the autumn period is chosen, then you need to pick up the time for 3-4 weeks before the onset of cold weather, so the plant will have the opportunity to take root and overwinter without loss. If the transplant takes place in the spring, then the work should be done in the evening or wait until the weather is cloudy, so the root system will receive a period of adaptation to the new place and will take root faster.


  • Place preparation. When planting bushes to the place of the dead plant, it is necessary to thoroughly clean the soil from the old earth and the remnants of the roots of the predecessor. The best solution would be to pamper a new earthen mixture with garden fertilizer for roses. It is necessary to replace the soil not only under the new sapling, but also within a radius of 30 cm from it, so space will be provided for growth.
  • Preparing the plant. Before the beginning of transplantation in the fall, old bushes must be cut, to remove dried shoots, leaves and extra branches. If an overgrown plant is being planted, a part of the root system can be removed, so the old bush will be updated, and the removed part will be able to take root in the new place.
  • Digging a bush. To extract a bush from the soil, it is necessary to know what kind of plant grows on the site: a rose-bearing rose or grafted. The superficial arrangement of the rhizome is characteristic of the root-bearing flower, and the grafted species is characterized by a developed deep root system. Taking into account the location of the root, it is necessary to carefully dig up the plant so that the root captures a part of the earth. An earth lump will help avoid unnecessary injury to the plant, but if part of the rhizome is damaged, then with proper care, it will quickly recover without harming the plant.


  • Transfer to a new place. So that the thin root processes of the root do not come off the ground, it is necessary to wrap an earthen ball in a cloth or paper, in which the old flower will be transferred to a new landing site. Such a solution will help to avoid additional injuries and stress for the seedling. Landing at a new location is done without removing the paper or fabric. These materials will not interfere with root growth and will be quickly recycled.
  • Preparing for a transplant. A new place must begin to prepare for several weeks. The dimensions of the pit should be slightly larger than the volume of the excavated earth coma. A week before planting, composting fertilizer is introduced into the pit and dug up with the main soil. A couple of days before planting, another layer of soil is applied to avoid direct contact of the fertilizer with the root system, which can cause a burn.


  • The transplant process. Before transferring the plant, it is necessary to water the prepared hole abundantly. The field of which the wrapped rhizome with the old soil is transferred to the new pit and is filled up with a new earthen mixture. For the root-own flower, the roots are positioned so that the top coincides with the natural ground level. And for grafted species, the root sinks 5 cm below ground level. After planting, it is necessary to slightly condense the fresh soil and water the bush abundantly.

If all work is done correctly, you can be sure that the plant will successfully take root and the result will be noticeable in the next season.

But such experiments with landscape design of the site should not be carried out more often than once every 3-5 years. In a shorter period, the flowers fail to adapt and form into a full-fledged plant, which, with external stress, is fraught with the death of seedlings.

Growth in a new place

If planting is made on a bed with already formed roses, it is necessary to fulfill some conditions that will help the new plant to more easily adapt to the neighborhood and environment:

  • varieties should roughly coincide in terms of flowering, so fast-growing neighbors will not dominate and prevent the growth of a new neighbor;
  • if planting occurs in the fall, the neighboring bushes can also be pruned;


  • watering and feeding the entire flower bed must be performed simultaneously, this helps to stimulate the same growth rate of the rosary.

To ensure optimal rooting of the rose, you can prune new sprouts for the first one or two seasons without letting the plant bloom. Similar measures should be taken for neighboring bushes, creating uniform conditions of formation.
To re-planted bush successfully wintered, you must not forget to cover the roots before the onset of cold weather. For shelter you need to loosen the soil, remove all young shoots and leaves with a secateur and cover the bush with wintering material. For high-quality protection from frost, spruce branches, spruce sawdust or specialized synthetic material are perfect.

The efforts spent on the transplant of roses, and the arrangement of the new place will justify themselves with lush flowering and magnificent aesthetics that will decorate the garden before many years.
