Big sized Roses and Button Sized Fragrant Roses flowering tips

 Big sized Roses and Button Sized Fragrant Roses flowering tips today in this beautiful post!  Healthy rose flowers are what every gardener dreams of. When ever we plant a rose bush, a rose climber or any rose plant we expect to see healthy blooms. Heavenly fragrances unique of roses, when rose plants are fully loaded with colourful roses.

Throughout history, yellow has been closely associated with the sun, making these roses excellent for cheering people up. Yellow roses send a message of appreciation and simply pure appreciation love without the romantic element of other colors. The color represents feelings of joy and delight. Red roses symbolize passion love and happiness. Pink Roses, the so romantic roses for new love, fresh love. White Roses symbolizes purity and clear friendship. Dark red Rose flowers, again is a very passionate deep colour in roses.

My fascination began when we visited the Ooty hill station Rose Garden. What I noticed was the soil was a mixture of cowdung and fertilizers and was a reddish one grainy texture. The climate in Ooty is best for flowering plants and hence we see blooms all year round, still the best time to visit Ooty is in summers when the vibrant colored blooms are in full swing! Every plant has flowers and even the foliage plants are fresh and healthy, think it has to do with the temperatures,  sunlight and cooler temperatures in Ooty.

Tips for healthy growth of your rose plant and big flower size- I share few tips here to get good and profuse flowers on your rose plants. Rose climbers need partially shaded area as the blooms will dry off soon in sunny sections of your garden. Feed the plants with regular fertilizer available in nursery outlets. There are  also special mixtures available for roses which when given to the plants they immediately develop good sized blooms.

The thorny rose plants bushes also need to get partial sunlight for few hours of the day. the soil has to be hard to bear the weight of your rose plant. Regular watering is required after fertilization the plant for the plant to develop good sized rose flowers. I usually feed my rose plants just before rainy season to see the blooms come out excellent and fully loaded plants look coloruful with a fragrant atmosphere. With red. pink, white, peach, shaded, black red, maroon, rani pink and orange all the colours especially the yellow rose bush they all look amazing with their unique fragrances and colours  

Is your Rose plant healthy? Big blooms need healthy plant and I have seen my rose flowers of big size are almost drooping on the rose bushes and climbers. The size of the flowers is very big and the stem is unable to bear the weight of the bunches of flowers. Some Rose flower climbers need to be trimmed down to maintain the beauty of the rose climber whereas some rose bushes have developed good blooms and with profuse growth.  I also trim the plants even during rainy season. To check the growth of the rose flowers I have also cut many rose flowers and kept them inside to brighten up the living room and enjoy the fragrant roses. Each stem also can be grown into a new rose plant but you need to add the rooting hormone. I never tried this, but You tube, Google has much information about growing plants from cuttings and even gifted bouquet roses.

 For increasing the size of the rose flowers you must allow only few flowers to grow on the  rose plant. Usually I select bushes without thorns as these give profuse flowers. This red rose picture is from the rose bush that has given very big flowers this year. For healthy blooms,  the right amount of water, light, and feeding and also we need to be lucky with these rose plants,  as my personal experience is,  long time back we had a rose climber that would grow and grow and there were no flowers on it. Finally we parted with it. 

 Keep the stem thick to carry the weight of  loaded rose flowers on your rose plant. it was worth the effort of the cuts and bruises by the thorns! Remember to be careful while handling thorny rose plants and trimming time also.

While I have had lots and lots of Rose bushes of different varieties over the years and even special unique ones bought form exhibitions that have given us beautiful rose flowers, I had avoided the tiny button roses.  Size matters, and since the environment on our terrace garden his best suited for roses, we always would choose and grow large sized roses. Button roses, tiny roses and small beautiful bunches of Joy!

So I added button roses, and then after the session of blooming the leaves started to yellow and drop off. There were so many flowers, it was not possible to trim the plant at this time. I realized that the plant was struggling to maintain health due to less exposure to sunlight. Trimming and dead heading of flowers is very important.

Then due to heavy rains most button rose flowers rotted and the whole plant was covered with soggy petals. Chances are, here the plant health can be compromised in such situations where the outside atmosphere is dark and cloudy.

Next time, I was prepared, my special tip! Cut some flowers( I avoided cutting flowers, but in special cases  it is essential, especially in rains the flower remains for longer time indoors) Cutting some flowers helped me to add some freshness indoors as well as save the remaining flowers on plant that grew healthy and stayed for  longer time.

Button Rose bushes care-

1) Button rose plants  will need indirect sunlight.

2) Egg shells work for all roses as great feedings.

3) They will grow stems that will spread into many tiny stems and load with many buds.

4) Dead heading is important after blooming as these tiny button roses dry off and they cover most of the plant preventing  the leaves from getting sunlight.

 5) Button roses grow in plenty, large numbers in healthy plant and hence they require rich soil and well  sized pots.

Growing big rose flowers is a dream of every one who selects to grow roses and it is necessary to understand that the rose bush needs some sunlight and also feedings regularly to flower healthily. Once the flowers have dried off even more important is to trim, dead head the flowers to encourage new growth on the rose plants.

What more than to be greeted with roses, big sized or fragrant button roses, they are always the Best! No wonder Roses are King of flowers!
