Culvita - Rose Soil 40 liters Suitable for
Culvita Rose Soil can be used for all roses. Roses are woody plants and therefore require soil that is slightly fungus-dominant. In somewhat more fungus-dominated soil, nutrients are more readily available to the rose plants. Furthermore, due to this fungus dominance, the rose bush is less susceptible to diseases. This rose soil contains organically bound nutrients for roses, which cannot leach out and remain available to the rose for an entire season.
Not suitable for:
There are no restrictions on the use of Culvita Rose Soil.
Culvita - Rose Soil 40 liters Properties
Culvita Rose Soil is a mixture of garden peat, sphagnum peat, clay, and high-quality humus compost. In addition to an organic base fertilizer and lime, it contains RhizoPlus. RhizoPlus is a mixture of mycorrhiza and other rhizosphere bacteria and fungi. The addition of RhizoPlus ensures that the uptake of food and water starts faster and more easily. Moreover, RhizoPlus promotes the natural balance.
Culvita - Rose Soil 40 liters Application
Planting shrub roses in the garden:
This bag contains enough rose soil for 5 rose bushes. Dig a spacious planting hole the size of a 10-liter bucket. Roses are sometimes supplied without a root ball; in this case, their roots should be placed in a bucket of water for some time (2 hours) beforehand to allow them to soak up plenty of water. Place the rose with its roots in the planting hole and fill the hole with Culvita Rose Soil. By gently shaking the shrub while filling with the rose soil, all roots come into good contact with the soil particles. Water generously, but prevent water from standing in the planting hole. Fill the rest of the planting hole – if necessary – with the excavated soil. Continue to water regularly during the first year after planting. The roots need the opportunity to establish themselves in the subsoil and connect with the groundwater.
A portion of the roots, the “feeding roots,” establishes itself in the top layer and will be used by the plant to absorb nutrients that are mineralized (released) in the top layer. Be careful not to damage the feeder roots by hoeing and/or raking between the shrubs.
Patio and pot roses
These plants are usually supplied in pots. Moisten the root ball thoroughly and tap the plant out of the pot. If you want to repot them into a larger pot or planter, ensure that the new pot is thoroughly clean. If the pot is unglazed, let it soak up water well first.
If necessary, place a few pot shards over the drainage hole at the bottom. It is recommended to place some Culvita Hydro granules as a drainage layer at the bottom of the pot. Fill the new pot or planter with Culvita Rose Soil and plant the rose bushes without damaging the roots. Water generously, but ensure that no water remains standing in the pot. You must water roses in pots or containers regularly during the growing and flowering season. If you want to plant a pot or patio rose in the garden, follow the instructions for shrub roses in the garden.
