The breeders of the famous company David Austin Roses bred the GOLDEN CELEBRATION variety in 1992, to the golden anniversary of the Queen of Great Britain. Since then, this royal flower has not ceased to conquer the world.

The author of the variety positioned it as a classic bush rose-scrub. Unlike other varieties, in a warm climate, this amazing rose can turn into a climbing one with shoot lengths of up to 2.5 m. Growers note the variety's ability to act as a container plant.

Bloom

Rose GOLDEN CELEBRATION in central Russia blooms in early June. The flowering break is small, the plant quickly recovers, and repeated flowering continues (not as plentiful as the first) until the end of September - beginning of October.

At temperatures above 25 degrees, rose bloom is continuous, single flowers persist even between main waves.

Each flower does not last long, begins to crumble for 4-5 days, they practically do not need to be cut off to give the bush an aesthetic appearance.

If the rose does not bloom, it is necessary to check the depth of the neck of the root of the bush: with a soil layer of more than 3 cm, the bush turns into a non-blooming variety of rose hips.

Use in landscape design

The wicker shape will decorate an arch, a fence, a wall of the house. A container instance is installed at the main entrance to the house to enjoy its exquisite aroma.

How to grow a flower?

Seat selection

The variety does not like drafts and gusty winds, so the best place for it is a protected place against the wall of the house with illumination of at least 5 hours a day, slightly elevated, quickly warming up in the spring. A longer stay in direct sunlight leads to fading of the petals.

The soil

The variety is very demanding on the composition of the soil. It is optimally fertile, rich in humus, moisture-intensive loamy, with a small addition of sand, breathable, slightly acidic soils.

Landing

Seedlings are planted in warm soil, beginning in late April. Possible autumn landing. The optimal depth of the hole is at least 40 centimeters due to the long roots sprouting into the depths of the earth.

The flower does not respond well to natural acids, therefore, before planting, it is important to determine the level of soil acidity and reduce its portion of ash. After planting, plants are abundantly watered and shaded.

Temperature

According to the US Department of Agriculture (USDA), the Golden Celebration variety is able to grow in zones from 5th to 10th. However, Russian gardeners recognize the average frost resistance of the variety and recommend the obligatory sheltering of roses for the winter.

Watering

Usually watered a rose twice a week. In the absence of rain and heat above 25 degrees, the number of irrigations is increased, if possible, drip irrigation is arranged for each bush. At the same time, the length of the roots is taken into account: it is important that the water penetrates to a depth of 40-60 cm. As a rule, under a bush up to 3 years, 5-7 l is required, the older - up to 20 l at each watering. In August, watering is reduced, by September they stop.

Top dressing

GOLDEN CELEBRATION rose top dressing is standard: nitrogen fertilizers are needed to stimulate shoot growth. They are given to the plant at the beginning of the growing season. When the first buds appear, they switch to fertilizer with a high content of potassium and phosphorus, gradually reducing the proportion of nitrogen. During flowering, nitrogen fertilizers are not recommended, so as not to stimulate the development of foliage to the detriment of the quantity and quality of flowers.

Pruning

Pruning - An Extremely Important Rose Care Event. It should be carried out three times a season: in spring, summer and autumn. There are cropping levels: strong, medium and weak.

Trimming Objectives:

1. Bush rejuvenation, growth stimulation - Strong pruning is necessary, in which 2-4 buds are left on the shoot. It is carried out, as a rule, in the early spring.
2. Plentiful early flowering - average pruning over 5-7 buds, carried out in late spring, after the bush awakens, and in early summer.
3. Long flowering - weak pruning, in which faded flowers are removed. Held throughout the summer.

In the fall, shoots are cut to prepare for wintering.

Transfer

15 years is the deadline for growing a bush in one place. Without waiting for this period, it is recommended to transplant roses to a new place.

When transplanting a bush, the transfer method is optimal, allowing you to maximize save all the roots of the plant. Before transplanting, it is recommended to spill the plant with water with the addition of root stimulating drugs.

Preparation for winter

Roses of central Russia require protection against frost. But early sheltering of the bushes, before the establishment of stable frosts, can lead to the plant's warming. Before sheltering, roses are trimmed and spud with garden soil. It is dangerous to use moisture-absorbing materials (sawdust, peat, coconut) this leads to deformation of the bush. Spruce spruce branches are the best material for preserving roses in cold weather. For 100% protection against frost, the top is covered with a covering material.

To increase the frost resistance, Golden Celebration has been given an increased dose of potassium fertilizer since July summer. In September, they feed up the autumn group with fertilizer.

How to propagate?

Rose Golden Celebration propagated by cuttingswhich are first placed in a root-stimulating solution for 2-3 hours. Cuttings from grown and mature bushes after the first wave of flowering are planted in fertile slightly acidic soil with a small amount of sand.

Diseases and Pests
