Rose has always been and will be the queen of flowers, a symbolgreatness and beauty. This flower is very popular among all peoples. And not one of the ornamental plants has so many varieties and forms. Everyone who has at least a small garden plot, necessarily grows roses on it. And in flats these flowers successfully take root, as recently there are enough species, adapted specifically for growing in room conditions. Varieties of indoor roses are varied. You can buy them at any flower shop. Usually, domestic species are mini bushes, about 30-40 centimeters in height. Choosing a rose for your window sill, do not rush to stop your eyes on the colors that the Dutch producers have created. It is these plants that often do not take root in our climate. Dutch rose is difficult to grow even in the garden, what can I say about the apartment. It is best to choose those varieties of mini rosettes that are not so whimsical. Let's look at them in more detail.
Bengal red rose
The most common sort of house roses. It is absolutely not demanding, it blooms very richly, but the flowers, unfortunately, do not have a smell. May winter in the apartment at a temperature of up to 25 degrees, without discarding the leaves. Bengal rose does not need pruning. Only dead or diseased branches need to be removed.
Polyanthus roses
This variety is divided into separate species. A polyanth rose is not whimsical, it perfectly coexists at home, it has a pleasant smell.
- Triumph A rather large plant that pleasestheir owners bright red flowers, from the spring to the first frost. Well tolerates wintering on a cool window sill. To flowering was long and plentiful, the plant needs to be fed.
- Thumbnails Mini bush with double flowers white andpink coloring. Perfectly winters in the room, so it is fairly easy to tolerate the widespread diseases of indoor roses, arising from overabundance of moisture. The peculiarity of this species is that it reproduces itself without special problems by cuttings. Roots appear almost on the fifth day after the cuttings are placed in water.
- Gloria Has very rare, you can even sayexclusive color. A medium sized shrub with small leaves and small flowers, resembling smoldering embers from a distance. For all its exotic, buds do not smell. Unfortunately, this mini rose does not tolerate wintering in a warm room. From October to February it needs to be settled in a cool place, where the air temperature is not more than ten degrees.
- Clotilda A small bush with fragrant terryflowers. Right after blossoming, the bud has a light pink shade with a deeper color in the middle, but after a few days it turns white. Blooms for a long time and abundantly, it's a good winter on a cool window sill.
Bourbon Rose
This variety can not be called a mini. It forms a rather large bush with tender leaves and full large flowers. Buds last long, have different shades: pale pink, creamy, rich red. The Bourbon rose begins to grow late late, somewhere in the middle of July. But it stops too late, until the New Year holidays your window sill will look like a fairy garden. In March, the species of Bourbon roses lose almost all the foliage. They release new twigs, quickly gain strength, growing green with young. The only problem that this plant can give you is a difficult rooting. It is best to conduct cuttings in April, using a growth stimulant.
Irish rose
This flower is very different from all domesticvarieties. Its bud is somewhat like a tulip of tender apricot color. And the leaves are small, thin, with jagged edges, having a lilac shade. This variety must be cut off, leaving 2-3 strongest branches. Then the flowering will be more abundant, and the buds are larger.
Chinese Mini Rose
This is the most miniature version of indoor roses. Her flowers are very small, about two centimeters in diameter. And the bush itself grows no more than fifteen centimeters in height. There are many varieties of Chinese rose, and all of them differ in the coloring of buds and in the structure of the flower. Some species smell strongly, while others do not smell at all. Red, yellow, orange, bard, and even silvery shades of Chinese rose have won the hearts of many florists. Most varieties require a cold winter.
Tea roses
These fragrant flowers were brought to us fromIndia. However, in nature there is no tea variety. To create it, Bengal roses were used. For maintenance at home, mini varieties were grown, which grow to only thirty centimeters. Blossom tea roses almost continuously, have double flowers with a strong and pleasant smell. Colors can be very different. Because this plant is very susceptible to dampness and cold, it is ideal for growing in an apartment.
Repaired roses
Large flowers, depending on the variety can bewhite, red or pink. If you want to grow such a copy in the apartment, prepare to provide him with a cold winter, not more than 5-10 degrees of heat. It is quite difficult to propagate a repairing rose by cuttings, so many flower growers plant them. If you can provide these plants with proper conditions and a spacious habitat, you will get very rare in beauty specimens.
Hibiscus
This plant does not belong to the family of Rosaceae. However, it has long and firmly settled in our apartments under the name "Chinese rose" or rosan "Chinese". The flower is not whimsical, requires minimal care, and thus very abundantly blooms. And even if it does not bloom, it also looks very attractive. Unlike cold-blooded roses, hibiscus is found in conditions that are somewhat similar to the tropics. He loves bright light, abundant watering and sprinkling of leaves. The flowers of hibiscus are similar to small gramophones, pink, red or bard shade. During flowering, the plant needs mineral and organic fertilizers. There is a "Chinese rose" for about twenty years. An adult plant can grow up to two meters in height. The first five years of the flower must be replanted every year, in the future, a change of land and pot is required every three years.

Think about whether you can provide him with everything you need. In fact, in the opposite case, the flower will simply die in a week, like a bouquet of cut roses. We advise you to read:
