• sercosporosis;
• sphaeloma;
• Septoria;
• stem cancer;
• rust;
• root cancer;
• mosaic;
• downy mildew.

The fight against them is to thoroughly process the plant with special means, and to remove damaged bushes and their sections.

Propagation Features

A street rose is propagated by cuttings, dividing a bush or layering. The features of each type of breeding are the proper preparation of the bush.

1. Cuttings for propagation are cut in spring or autumn, in the form of annual shoots with 3-5 buds, 10 cm long. If it happens in the fall, they are put in buckets with wet sand for the winter and covered with glass jars. They should be kept in the basement.
2. A more convenient way of reproduction is layering. They are obtained when the shoots of the bushes are pressed to the ground until the buds appear, and buried to a depth of 5 cm. By the next spring, the cuttings are separated from the adult plant and planted.
3. The division of the bush is carried out in winter and autumn. They dig a bush and divide it into several parts. Each part must be root and at least 1 shoot.

Caring for roses does not require much effort. It is important to do everything on time. And then the roses will reveal their beauty and aroma to others.
