Rosary at the cottage - a breakdown scheme for different types of flower beds and the best varieties for growing (70 photos)
Roses are the decoration of any garden, so most housewives strive to create a lush pink flower bed under their house. However, the efficiency and flowering of a beautiful rosary depends not only on the selected varieties or the number of seedlings planted, but also on the planting pattern, the correct "neighbors" and the corresponding design.
To make a truly chic combination of roses, it is better to familiarize yourself with some rules in advance.
Rule number 1. Choose a style
True, the matter is not entirely about style, but about the general mood and atmosphere of the future flower garden. Even before the formation of the flowerbed and planting, it is necessary to clearly determine where, how and for what purpose a new rose garden will be created.
For example, you can choose from the following options:
Romantic style implies the planting of roses of delicate and pastel shades, entwining a wooden frame of a gazebo or a veranda. Combining such a composition with tall green plants, ivy and loach, you can easily achieve a fabulous atmosphere, comfort and peace.
The formal style is bright catchy colors, contrasts, riot of colors and an abundance of greenery. Such variations are appropriate on facades, central flowerbeds, or near accent objects (fountains, statues).
Classics involves one-sided compositions on fences, fences or walls, and the shade of roses is selected as muted as possible or to match the color of the coating.
The minimalist picture is made up of several single flower beds, mostly regular geometric shapes. It is possible to place mobile flower gardens in flowerpots, tubs, containers.
The rustic style is characterized by emphasized carelessness and naturalness of the flowerbed, for which abundantly flowering and rapidly growing varieties are selected. The best "neighbors" of such wild roses will be natural materials: bushes, grass, stones, cobblestones, trees, single overgrown driftwood.
Rule number 2. We make a diagram
Before you make a rose garden, you need to think through all the details on paper. Having decided on the place of the future pink kingdom, having studied its features, choosing the style of a flower garden and choosing suitable varieties, you should clearly visualize everything on the final diagram.
The drawing must indicate:
- The boundaries of the flowerbed, and what they will be made of;
- Place of planting flowers of all varieties;
- The allocation of tall, medium and low levels;
- Determination of planting of perennial flowers and annuals that will have to be replanted annually;
- Inserting additional decorative elements into the overall composition.
It is better to make a drawing in color and as close as possible in reality to take into account all the nuances of the future flower garden. First of all, refer to the photos of already decorated summer cottages, select the ones you like and write the ready-made plans in your conditions.
Rule number 3. Follow the instructions
Making the rosary in the country house with your own hands almost does not differ from the construction of any other flower garden, with the exception of some points for special care for the rose. To reduce risks, it is better not to act blindly, but be guided by the following algorithm:
- Choose a suitable territory (at the entrance to the site away from trees and massive buildings);
- Prepare a place for the future flower garden: provide access to sunlight, protect from wind, clear the soil of debris, weeds, fertilize with special means;
- Make holes with a depth of about 60 cm (root length + 10 cm) and a width of 30 cm to 150 cm (depending on the thickness of the roots of the variety);
- In each hole put a few small stones, gravel, expanded clay and sprinkle everything with earth;
- Prepare flower seedlings: remove the damaged roots, cut to 20-30 cm, and leave the strongest and most healthy shoots without leaves or buds as a stalk;
- Moisten the plant and carefully place in the hole, cover it with earth and water it abundantly, after which the planting site will settle by 4-5 cm;
- Fill the formed space with earth, slightly trample and water abundantly;
- Plant the required number of seedlings in accordance with the scheme of the rosary;
- Complete the flower bed with additional flowers or shrubs;
- Make a rose garden at the cottage with improvised means: stones, a wooden fence, a decorative mesh, etc .;
- Water the bushes regularly for two weeks after planting, and in the winter earth holes in the holes and sprinkle with sawdust or sand.
Rule number 4. Experiment
There are many ways to harmoniously and effectively design a rose garden in the country. First of all, it is necessary to take care of masking the roots and non-flowering parts with the help of a beautiful border or plantings along the edge of the flower bed.
Secondly, plant near bright neighbors: barberry, aster, irises, dolphin, santolin, cloves, begonia, periwinkle, pansies, boxwood, fern, needles, nettle, primroses, salvia. Thus, you can not only decorate, but also protect the plant, for example, marigolds, lavender and sage will protect the rose from pests and infections.
Often, as a finishing touch, they use a single lawn of decorative grass, which is presented in a wide range in any hardware store at a very attractive price of 50 rubles.
Thirdly, independently create a weaving of roses, especially among climbing varieties, to make unusual arches, arbors and floral ornaments.
Rule number 5. Do not forget about leaving
Roses are those flowers that constantly need outside attention and care, therefore it is impossible to let such a flowerbed drift, even to create an atmospheric flower garden in the "wild" style.
Basically, care comes down to the usual color manipulations: regular watering, applying organic fertilizers and mineral fertilizing, weeding and pruning at some flowering periods.
It is also necessary to remember the specific tasks of keeping the rosary, for example, removing wild growth after grafting, timely shaping the silhouette of the bush and the mandatory supports for tall flowers.
The lush, bright rose garden in your own garden is what every business woman dreams of. Such a flower garden will provide not only the original and bewitching design of the local area, but the whole summer season will delight you with an unforgettable fragrance and rustle of petals and leaves.
