How beautiful these bright mini-roses are, and they smellthey are simply incomparable! And how do you want to buy such a miracle and settle on your windowsill! So almost everyone thinks, who at least once saw indoor roses from friends or on the counter of a flower shop. However, having bought a plant, many of us are quickly disappointed, because they do not know how to care for a room rose. And not a month passes, and the rose turns into a blackened "stump". Neither transplantation, nor feeding does not help. What's the catch? How to keep the plant at home? Caring for a room rose is a whole art that needs to be learned. This is what we will do in this article. It's not enough just to visit the store and buy a flower you like. Here it will be correct to pay attention to some factors that will affect the future development and growth of the plant. In general, we choose by principle - more buds, it means better. But this is not entirely correct. Flowers - a business acquired. Pay more attention to the plant itself - the specimen chosen by you should have young shoots. This means that he is in a phase of growth. And adaptation in a new place will be easier. As a result, it will be much easier to grow a rose at home. But first you should learn in detail how to properly care for indoor roses.
The first days in the new conditions
So, the plant is bought. Now you will face the question of how to correctly transplant a room rose. Arriving home, do not rush it immediately to settle in a new pot. Let the flower get used to the climate of your apartment. In a couple of days it is necessary to carry out prophylaxis against pests. The usual soap foam can help in the fight against them. We carry the plant in the bathroom, wash each leaf with soapy water - especially the inside. Then we wash off the foam with running water. You can arrange a contrast shower. We pour for five minutes with hot water, then the same time is cool. Here we remove the rose from the pot and check the roots. Having found out rotten sites, accurately we cut off. Healthy roots should be strong and light. After the water procedures are over, let the rose dry for a couple of hours, and you can transplant it into a fresh substrate. Be sure to put drainage on the bottom: comfortable conditions of "living" - this is where you need to start the right care for roses. If you bought a plant planted in peat, then before you transplant the rose, you need to completely clean the roots of it. This is necessary in order to make it easier for you to care for the flower in the future. After all, if you simply transplant a rose from peat into an ordinary land, then the pot will have two types of soil. And this is fraught with several problems:
- Firstly, during irrigation, the usual land will be well hydrated, but the roots in the peat coma dry and do not get the right moisture.
- Secondly, you can not keep track of the moment when the plant needs watering. After all, the soil on top will be moist, and the roots at this time will need water.
- And, thirdly, if the plant is transplanted incorrectly - this is fraught with its drying, which adversely affects the indoor rose.
If on the plant you bought there areflowers and buds - cut them off. There are always a lot of copies on purchased copies. And if the rose is young, flowers will be a hindrance to proper development. Everything has its time. First, let the branches and roots become stronger, and then the flowers will appear. After transplantation it is desirable to water the flower with fertilizer, for example, "Epin", this will help it to acclimatize better. Transplantation of a room rose is an important stage in its further development. Therefore, this procedure should be taken with special attention. 
Create optimal conditions
Further growing and care of the rose consists offrom several not less significant moments. And the first of them - never overheat the plant, even in winter! The rose can tolerate even small frosts, but not the heat. The temperature for proper development should not be more than 25 degrees. To place the plant is best on a light window, and to maintain the optimum temperature, especially in hot weather, it is necessary to regularly ventilate the room and cover the pot with the flower from direct sunlight. The best option is the west or east window. On the southern side of the overheating will not save a good watering, or airing. The leaves dry, but the buds fall off, not blooming. The southern window is suitable only in the cool season - late autumn and winter. The rose needs to be watered regularly and abundantly. It is necessary for her, how people have air. If you take care of the rose is not enough to carefully and let the earth dry up, the flower will quickly die. Especially it concerns the flowering period. However, do not overdo it. The water in the pan should not stagnate, so about 30 minutes later the water that the flower has not drunk, it is necessary to drain. In hot weather, watering is done every day. Many growers mistakenly think that a rose needs daily spraying of leaves. This is not true. It is enough to arrange a shower once a week to get rid of dust. But the excessive humidity of the air is loved by pests of indoor roses. Frequent spraying can lead to the appearance of fungal diseases - so caring, but improper care can even lead to the death of the plant. Indoor roses are very demanding and whimsical, so they need fertilizer. The plant blooms almost all the time, which takes away a lot of energy from it, and fertilizing helps to restore them. Beginning from early spring to frosts, rosace needs to be fed with organic and mineral substances, periodically replacing them. It is best for this purpose to use liquid fertilizer, which is sold in flower shops.
Care of the calendar
With the onset of warm days, room roses needput on an open balcony or courtyard. She feels much better in the fresh air. This has a favorable effect on flowering and on general development. When the first buds appear on the plant, they should be cut off. This will have a positive effect on their further appearance. The rose will bloom more abundantly and longer, until the frosts. Flowers that are already fading, also need to be removed in time. And it is best to do this when the plant has not yet started to drop the petals. Periodic pruning of indoor roses is necessary. All rotten leaves, withered twigs and other garbage should be cleaned immediately to prevent the appearance of diseases. When summer comes to an end, make sure that the fertilizer you use for fertilizing does not contain nitrogen. In this period of time, the rose is preparing for peace, and this substance does not need it now. Now it's best to put flowers on a cool loggia, the air temperature should not be more than 10 degrees. In the period of rest, which lasts in autumn and winter (October to February), the rose leaves turn yellow at the rose. Do not be afraid that the plant loses its foliage, this is foreseen by nature, and in place of the fallen leaves, new ones will appear in the spring. In February, the rose must be prepared for awakening and moved to a warmer room, transplanted to a new land. If the cold is experienced successfully, then in March she will give you the first flowers. In order to speed up this process, you need to know how to trim indoor roses. This procedure should be carried out as soon as the first kidneys appear. It is enough to shorten each branch by one third, and if there are no kidneys on the shoot, it is cut completely. Now the plant needs to be well watered and fed and do not forget to ventilate the room. And with the onset of heat - take it back to fresh air. 
Reproduction at home
Room roses perfectly reproduce by cuttings. Let's look at how to do it right. The best time to propagate a plant is summer. Cut the cuttings from the already faded branches, leaving on each of them two or three buds. It should be remembered that the lower cut must be oblique, and the kidney should look up. The upper cut is made straight, just above the very first kidney. The cuttings are rooted in water or in a mixture of peat and sand. It must be done as quickly as possible, since even a small drying can lead to reproduction to negative results. By the way, the cuttings in the water have one feature - the water into which you initially placed the cuttings, you can not pour out, even if it turned green. Just as it evaporates, you need to add a fresh one. As soon as roots appear, about 1-2 centimeters, you can proceed to planting. Planting should be very careful - the roots are delicate and fragile, they can easily be damaged. Next, put the "children" in a bright room, but not on the windowsill, since direct sunlight can harm them. Cuttings should be watered regularly, as the soil dries. If the reproduction is successful, then two weeks later, young flowers begin to develop. Cutting is an excellent way to grow a rose that is tailored exactly to your home conditions, which simplifies the care of the plant in the future. After all, a rose, in its essence, a street flower, and for "home production" seedlings, adaptation is no longer required.
How to protect flowers from pests?

The first two are dangerous in the summer, when the plant is on the street. It is necessary to constantly check twigs, flowers and leaflets in time to take action. So, how to save a room rose if pests have overtaken it?
- Aphid. These insects are not so terrible. Especially if you noticed them right away. In this case, you can simply collect pests with your hands. If the situation worsens, use one of the special preparations, for example, "Intavir".
- Spider mite. He is very indifferent to roses and is able to destroy the plant in a few days. The mite entangles the finest spider web and the space between them, as a result of which the leaves of the flower dry and fall off. Buds are also susceptible to attack this pest, because of what they do not have time to blossom. To get rid of the tick you need to spray the plant with "Phyto-farm".
