Rugosa Hansa wrinkled rose comes from the countries of the East, from the coast of China and east of Siberia. It is often compared to a rose hip, since orange fruits ripen on it in the fall. Previously, Rugosa grew right on the coasts, but now it is planted in home gardens for decoration.
Description of the variety
Hans's park rose is an erect, vase-shaped bush. It looks very compact, since its size does not exceed 1.5 m. This allows you to use the plant instead of a fence or as a separate bush.
Rugosa's leaves have a wrinkled structure, a light green tint. With the onset of autumn, the foliage takes on a dark red tone.
Rose Hansa, unlike other varieties, begins to bloom early. The color lasts until autumn. The first flowers appear already with the onset of summer. Pollination occurs with the help of insects.
The variety is characterized by beautiful, elegant, elongated buds. The flowers have a double texture, large size and lilac-purple tone. The middle is decorated with golden stamens. Only 5 flowers can ripen on a brush. The fruits of the Hansa Park rose look like small tomatoes, and their color is also red-orange.
Growing and care
Features of propagation by cuttings:
- Seedlings have a high percentage of hardiness if their root system is germinated in a mixture of peat and sand in a ratio of 1: 1. Before planting in the soil, it is imperative to treat the roots with a growth-stimulating mixture.
- When separating the roots from the shrub independently, you need to take only large shoots, having previously dug them in.
It is best to plant the Hans rose in early spring than in autumn. The place for planting should be sunny, although the plant feels great in shady conditions.
In the first days after planting, it is important to protect the park rose from bright sunlight until it gets stronger. Soil fertilization is a must. All ingredients are mixed in equal amounts:
- humus;
- superphosphate substance;
- salt with potassium.
Pest control
If the conditions of care are violated, the rose may undergo the development of diseases and the appearance of insect pests:
- spider mite;
- leaf rollers;
- rust;
- powdery mildew;
- gray rot;
- sawfly;
- brown rot.
Advantages and disadvantages of the variety
