For more than a dozen years, roses have been decorating various events and celebrations. To date, breeders have bred more than 15,000 different varieties of this floral plant. The culture can be distinguished by the shape of the foliage and petals, the length of the stem, the splendor of the inflorescences, as well as the absence or presence of prickly thorns and the color of the buds.
As soon as a person sees a garden bed where blue roses bloom, or a bouquet made up of these wonderful flowers, he wonders if such a plant actually exists in nature. And if not, then how can the rose be given such an unnatural shade and background?
Where to find a white rose?
There are not so many good and reliable white roses - with the seeming abundance and variety of the modern assortment. And if, when using hybrid tea roses, your main criterion is dazzling whiteness (especially at the stage of a half-opened bud), then the search for a variety can be delayed.
Finding reliable varieties of white roses is not easy. Rose 'Cosmos' (Meilland, 1994)
An acquaintance of mine from Dnepropetrovsk is a great connoisseur and connoisseur of roses M. B. Ryazanov - for 20 years of searching, he has not found his ideal. I hope that not everyone is so demanding and will be able to put up with shades of light blush, cream or pearl pink. If you notice greenish hues in the bud, expect a dazzling whiteness. In addition, even pure white flowers in another summer (and often in autumn) can turn brown - this is how they react to a lack of sun and heat.
Flower beds with burgundy roses
Burgundy roses have many different shades, they are varied in shape and size of flowers, symbolism. When creating a rosary in the country, you should remember that you should be very careful when combining dark roses with representatives of other flowers. Indeed, in the event of an unsuccessful selection of a neighbor, a dark rose can be lost and lose its exclusivity. Peach, muted coral flowers are combined well with burgundy roses, so the rich pink hue of the plant is hardly suitable.
Flower beds with burgundy roses
Mono-colored flower beds, collected from bushes of different size and shape, but similar in color of roses, will look especially advantageous. If you pick up plants of different heights and form a flower bed in such a way that tall roses of park varieties are located in its center, around them are medium-sized, and border and mini-roses around the perimeter, then the rose garden will look like one huge beautiful bouquet. The center of such a flower garden can be, for example, a gorgeous Astrin Green rose, you can surround it with various bushes of burgundy roses that grow up to 1 m.Frames can be border varieties of a similar shade, such as Lavalgult, Tamango, Europeana, Spray border rose.
Compositions of burgundy roses look magical, enchanting, but the owners of only one bush of such a rose can be made so that no one can pass by him indifferently, if you place it in the center of the site. A well-groomed fragrant bush, covered with luxurious velvet roses of noble burgundy color, will delight the owner and delight the guests.
Main selection criteria
If I had to supplement your white gardens (or just gardens) with roses, I would accept their health as the main requirement. Many white roses, including titled ones, prone to fungal diseases, and this is not a secret for either rose lovers or originators.
The next important requirement should be their optimal fit with your plots. For example, not every variety is suitable for a hedge or will be appropriate on a retaining wall. I'm sure that you have already thought about the basic compositions and just want to complement them with roses. You do not have the opportunity to play on contrasts and harmony of colors, but your option is successful already because white color easily comes into harmony with the landscape of any garden. Simple flowers (I'm talking about roses) conquer with tenderness against the background of foliage, and double ones - with sophistication of form.
Double flowers captivate with the sophistication of their form. Cultivar 'Alba Meillandecor' (Meilland, 1989)
With an abundance of double flowers (in the array, border), you need to take into account some more little things. Here, such nuances as the slow opening of the flower and its decorative effect in the final phase of flowering become important. If the flower quickly opens and shows an unsightly center, then instead of the expected cleanliness, an impression of untidiness arises. Of course, this is a garden, not an operating room, but you need to know what to expect. Even the most unpretentious and healthy varieties sometimes do not meet this requirement (‘Petticoat’, F., W. Kordes'Sohne, 2004).
The symbolic meaning of a flower
Flowers are a great way to express your feelings to a person, to thank or apologize, so it is important to choose the right color for the bouquet, because it is in it that the meaning of the gift lies. Burgundy roses have many shades, therefore, the symbolic meaning of each tone is different:
- a bright burgundy rose, like a red one, undoubtedly personifies passion, ardent feelings of the donor, such a flower can be presented to your beloved girlfriend or spouse;
- a deep burgundy rose is a sign of respect, admiration for unfading beauty, it is suitable for an older woman;
- a flower of a light shade expresses charm and admiration for a person, such compositions are appropriate for holidays on the occasion of anniversaries;
- dark, almost black color symbolizes the completion of business, deep respect, sometimes even sorrow - compositions of such flowers are often presented in the business world.
A deep burgundy rose - a sign of respect
When choosing roses for a lady, preference should be given to unblown tight buds, since overly open ones symbolize wilting.
Reliable varieties of white roses
I want to offer several varieties with which you can solve any landscape design problem. For vertical gardening, I recommend ‘Schneewalzer’ (Rosen Tantau, 1987) and the climbing mutation (Climing) of the famous floribunda rose 'Schneewittchen' (not to be confused with the original variety!). The first will delight you with large flowers of a perfect shape and good health, and the second will give a fantastic abundance of fragrant flowers and decorate a pergola, column or even a fence in any romantic garden.
‘Schneewalzer’ (Rosen Tantau, 1987) From scrubs for single-variety groups and mixed borders, the following varieties are suitable: 'Gletscherfee' (W. Kordes'Sohne, 1993), 'Weisse Wolke' (W. Kordes'Sohne, 1993) and 'Clos Fleuri blanc' (Delbard, 1989). I consider optimal for a hedge 'Clos Fleuri blanc' - This is a powerful (up to 1.5 m) plant from the series "roses without worries", very resistant to diseases and grows well even in partial shade.
Can be used as a shrub and the aforementioned floribunda rose 'Schneewittchen' subject to light pruning. This rose is generally versatile in use; from a group planting, you can form pyramids, cascades, applying an individual approach to pruning each plant. In a wet or cool summer, fungal diseases are inevitable, but in general they do not have too noticeable consequences. Such beauty deserves careful maintenance. For path curbs, mixed groups and arrays, choose floribunda roses to make even boring gardens shine. The choice is not so great - all the more, take it seriously so as not to get a lot of problems instead of an array of flowers.
'Bordure blanche' (Delbard, 1997)
For a low curb, I would use only two varieties - 'Bordure blanche' (Delbard, 1997) and ‘Aspirin- Rose’ (Rosen Tantau, 1997). I do not name a beautiful rose on this list. 'Carte Blanche' (Meilland, 1999) only because of its height (1 m): it is too tall for a curb, but has not grown to a real hedge. You will find a place for her in other plantings, and she will delight you with armfuls of flowers.
In terms of health, flower quality and flowering abundance, both recommended varieties are excellent, but in the first case, the border will have clearer boundaries and reach 80 cm in height, and the border from too spreading bushes ‘Aspirin-Rose’ will be slightly lower. But with light pruning, this variety has no equal in massifs and carpet plantings. In single plantings, the finished plot (in my opinion) will give only one variety known to me - this is 'Perle Meillandecor' (Meilland, 1990) with strikingly beautiful flowers. It can also be the best decoration for the retaining wall. In the latter version, only the variety 'Alba Meillandecor' (Meilland, 1989), which has more shoots and leaves, and an amazing flowering resistance. And finally - roses, showing off their flowers to the general delight. I will name only three varieties. ‘Cosmos’ (Meilland, 1994) may not seem terry enough (32 petals), but it has a well-shaped flower, a noticeable aroma and wonderful healthy foliage. In search of the ideal, lovers came to the most beautiful rose of dazzling whiteness - 'Teneke'... I do not know the originator of this cultivar for protected ground, but after many years of introduction, I consider it a garden cultivar as well.
‘Margaret Merril’ (Harkness, 1977) Finally, no garden is complete without the glittering and incomparable 'Margaret Merril' (Harkness, 1977). This rose has conquered more than one generation of lovers and will give you a rare pleasure with the exquisite beauty of the flower and rich pink scent.

It blooms for a long time and abundantly throughout the season. Ideal for creating flower arrangements.
Schneewittchen
‘Schneewittchen’Is one of the most famous roses with white flowers (which, alas, do not smell). However, it is not particularly resistant to black spot, so it is advisable to treat it with special agents that strengthen plant health.
The ‘Snow White’ collection (which is how the name of the rose of this variety is translated) was recently replenished by climbing 'Climbing Schneewittchen' with shoots 3–5 m long. It is perfect for planting near a fence, as is the ‘Snowflacke’ once flowering rose.
'Snowflacke' - rambler, bred in 1922, grows up to 3-5 m. It blooms once a year, but the flowers are very fragrant.
Repaired ‘Schneewittchen’ can be grown both as a bush and on a trunk. In the photo below, between the 'Schneewittchen' standard roses, from behind a low hedge, openwork bushes of incised Kalimeris (Kalimeris incise) appear, which are abundantly covered with white flowers from July to October.
There is an option for landing on slopes - groundcover ‘Escimo’ (‘Eskimo’), ‘Schneekönigin’ and ‘Schneeflocke’... These roses are very hardy and provide an excellent opportunity to admire the delicate flowers from the end of June until the first frost.
The Poet's Wife
Rose The Poet's Wife
English hybrid of vintage roses. Barely blossoming, it has a lemon scent that becomes sweet over time. It has a deep yellow color and a beautiful spherical shape. Feature - the flowers do not fade in the sun, they tolerate winter and rain well... A round bush grows up to 90-120cm, so it is ideal for the foreground of a flower garden.
Schneeflocke
'Schneeflocke' - repairing ground cover rose only 40-50 cm high with excellent health. The flowers are very fragrant and rain resistant. Landscape designers advise planting 4 plants of this variety per 1 m². This rose is also grown as a standard rose.
Flowers ground cover rose 'Schneeflocke' look fabulously beautiful in sparkling ice crystals. Nature can please with such masterpieces in the case of other remontant beauties.
In 2011, ‘Schneeflocke’ had a sister - a climbing rose ‘Schneeflocke Plus’. The relatively short (up to 2.5 m) plant is perfect for landscaping arches, as well as climbing ‘Snow Goose’ (‘Snow Goose’).
‘Snow Goose’ - remontant climbing rose 2–2.5 m high, grows well in partial shade. The flowers are small, semi-double, with a sweet aroma. They are creamy white in color, but quickly fade and become snow-white.
‘Escimo’ - repairing hardy rose 80 cm high. Flowers 4–5 cm in diameter, although simple, are not afraid of rain and one after another appear on the bush throughout the summer. The plant of this variety is distinguished by excellent resistance to powdery mildew and black spot.
Rose flowers 'Midsummer Snow' they have a sweet aroma and are resistant to rain, which is important. This small-flowered shrub rose up to 70 cm tall is perfect for growing in a pot.
Wonderful duet - shrub beauty 'Nevada’With delicately scented flowers and foxglove white. A rose of this variety has drooping shoots, it grows up to 2.5 m both in breadth and upward.
For low, fragrant hedges, a wrinkled remontant rose, or rugosa rose, ‘Schnee-Eule’ with double flowers, is a good candidate. She reaches a meter height and sheds withered petals herself.
The 'Innocencia' rose of the Floribunda group, planted in a row, looks unrivaled. You can create more or less tall hedges from ‘Schneewittchen’ bush-shaped or remontant roses ‘Blanc Double de Coubert’ and ‘Nevada’. Both roses bloom profusely in summer and again in autumn.
The 'Waterloo' musk rose hybrid blooms luxuriantly at the 'feet' of the tree throughout the summer. A feeder made of birch branches duplicates the color of flowers.
At the statue blooms a hybrid tea rose ‘Polarstern’ with a height of 60-100 cm. From July to September it is accompanied by the white-flowered toadflax (Linaria purpurea) ‘Alba’.
The white queen is beautiful, but capricious: these roses more often than others suffer from black spot. Therefore, plants need to be treated with special preparations and their health must be strengthened in all possible ways. In addition, light roses in June - July, like magnets, attract beetles and bronzes. Fighting them with chemicals has almost no effect, the only option is to collect them manually in the morning (at this time of day, the pests are inactive).
The last Achilles heel of many white roses - their flowers are afraid of bad weather and dampness. After rain, for example, snow-white buds turn into rags, and nothing can be done about it. The only way out is to choose plants of such varieties, the flowers of which are resistant to rain. Otherwise, caring for white roses is the same as for everyone else.

Blue Girl
Rose Blue Girl
The buds have a silvery-lilac, lavender color, in partial shade it gives more pink tint. Diameter up to 12 centimeters. There are 20-40 petals in the bud. The blossoming flower has a light fruity aroma and continues to bloom until the very cold, therefore, it is considered one of the most frost-resistant. Resistant to disease. The bush grows up to 80 cm. The only unpleasant feature is that during a strong wind it breaks out fragments of branched stems, so it is worth tying the bush. A rose can be called a "hard worker", there are a lot of buds on one bush, over the summer it gives four waves of gorgeous flowers. Ideal for collectors, it will enrich any garden with its unique touch.
Landing rules
The presence of very delicate light petals in white-flowered rose varieties implies strict adherence to the choice of the growing site and the technology of planting the plant in a permanent place:
- it is impossible to plant pink seedlings in shady areas, where stretching of the aerial part of the plant can be observed, as well as a weakening of growth and development;
- when grown in shade, the ornamental culture is often damaged by the most common diseases and pests;
- it is not recommended to plant a rose in areas exposed to north and north-east winds.
The most successful solution is to plant rose bushes on the southeast side of the garden area. White roses grow well on light and "breathing" loamy soils and chernozems, with good access of water and air to the root system of the plant. It is not recommended to plant ornamental crops on sandstones and sandy loam soils. A good result is the addition of peat, lime, rotted manure and turf.
Burgundy and dark red roses
Among the burgundy roses, you can distinguish many shades from light burgundy, almost scarlet to very dark. The darkest of them are called black. Of course, there are no completely black flowers, but breeders have bred varieties of roses that have a very dark color. Bouquets of these roses are elegant and appropriate for official celebrations and family anniversaries. They are presented to both women and men, you just need to choose the desired shade and skillfully make a bouquet.
Note! The burgundy color is inherent in all types of garden roses: climbing, border, park, shrub, tea. A rose garden of dark red and burgundy roses of huge and miniature sizes looks great.

Types of rose leaves
This plant has compound leaves, which consist of several simple ones. Most often, a rose has 5 or 7 serrated leaves (rounded or elongated). But sometimes there are varieties with 9, 13 or 15 leaves.
Also, depending on the variety, the leaves can be glossy (shiny and highly shiny) or matte. In both cases, the surface of the leaf plate is smooth, only the wrinkled rose has tubercles.
As for color, rose leaves can also be of different shades. Usually they are green (from light green to rich emerald) or bronze. There are also varieties with reddish and bluish leaves.
Watering, pruning and feeding
All varieties of blue beauty are very grateful. They delight gardeners with long and lush flowering, but without proper care, the plant will simply wither away. It needs to be loosened, watered, fed and cut on time.
- This flower does not tolerate the scorching rays of the sun, therefore, in extreme heat, the plant should be shaded.
- The first watering after planting should be abundant. Further, in the absence of rainfall, the plant is watered daily, but in moderation or as needed if the ground is wet.
- After each artificial or natural moistening of the soil, it must be loosened. This is done to saturate the earth with oxygen and eliminate stagnation of excess moisture in it. It is recommended to cover the soil around the plant with straw to protect it from drying out.
- Pruning of bushes is done in early spring, all blackened and dead branches are removed. In parallel, it is required to inspect the plant for damage and pests.
- After pruning, the rose must be fed. For this, ready-made nutrient fertilizers are used or mullein is bred in a ratio of 1 to 10 with water.
- To extend the timing and quality of flowering, you should pick off wilted buds.
Conditions comfortable for the Blue River
For Blue River, it is easy enough to find comfortable lighting. It is a light-loving rose that thrives on sunny locations. But even in partial shade, it will bloom no less colorful (however, there it becomes more vulnerable to diseases and pests, and it is still better to provide good lighting for the Blue River).
Try to protect this rose from cold winds, because it is not the most persistent and hardy plant that can feel uncomfortable on windy areas. But this requirement applies only to cold winds, not drafts. A prerequisite for the success of Blue River cultivation is proper foliage ventilation and free, active air circulation. This rose does not react very well to moisture and rainfall. Wet leaves should dry out very quickly, and for this the rose itself must be placed in well-ventilated warm areas.

It doesn't matter what you prefer - velvet or peony roses, tea or hybrid ones - there is also a burgundy color among them.
Reproduction of the Blue Nile rose
Reproduction of this variety is done by cuttings. It is better to harvest cuttings immediately after the first flowering. Eight-centimeter branches with a pair of leaves are cut from the central part of the stem. The lower cut is made obliquely, and the upper one is straight. In order for the root system to grow actively, before planting, the cuttings are immersed for 20 hours in a solution of sodium humate or root. After this time, they are washed off with water and transplanted into a container or open ground.
Cuttings
For the substrate, river sand or a mixture of sand and peat is used. The cuttings are planted at an angle to a depth of about 2 cm and then covered with foil. The seedlings are wetted several times a day by spraying.If everything is done correctly, then roots should appear in a month. After that, the film is removed, and the cuttings are fed with a urea solution for two weeks.
Shades of pink and who do they suit
The abundance of pink shades is simply amazing! Gentle and defiant, soothing and exciting, everyone will be able to find exactly their own shade, which can emphasize not only the dignity of appearance, but also tune in a positive way.
Classic pink shade
gave the name to the color itself in Russian, and in English it has two options: warm reddish-pink (Rose) and cold bluish-pink (Pink). The first option is suitable for girls of a warm color type (spring and autumn), but cold beauties should stop their attention on the same cold version of pink.
Pearl pink shade
is the lightest, almost white, pastel shade. It is delicate, pearlescent, perfect for bridal fashion. It will best emphasize the beauty of tanned skin, and at the same time, it will look harmonious on the white skin of girls of summer color type. But the pale-faced dark-haired beauties of the winter or autumn color type should refuse such a light shade.
For girls with alabaster and pearl skin, we suggest choosing an icy pink shade. It's cool enough for your color type, but has a powerful color impact. But such a cold shade will only spoil the "warm" spring girls with wheat hair.

Somewhat similar to the shade of a withered rose magnolia
but deeper. Intelligent tones created for business style. If the previous shade is universal, then magnolia suggests light skin, dark hair and a dragging look. It cannot be carried "to the bakery". The aristocracy of the shade is obvious.
Shade daisy
unusually bright and cheerful. Clothes of this color will always attract attention. Bright shorts and tops, daisy-colored dresses and sundresses are the best choice for a summer wardrobe. However, evening dresses of this shade will look elegant and extraordinary.
Raspberry sorbet
looks appetizing, like the shade of the same name. This is one of the most popular shades of pink, which goes to girls with a bright appearance. It is categorically not suitable for blondes of the spring color type, as well as red-haired beauties.
Reddish undertones will be discordant with the amber shade of the hair, as well as with the warm skin tone. A beautiful shade has been created for you "pink flamingo"

But she can take advantage of the breathtaking and the ringing shade of camellia
... Unlike "almond", "camellia" will emphasize all the advantages of winter and summer color type: dazzling whiteness of the skin, bright eyes, cold shade of hair.
Scadokus shade
warm and soft. It suits both warm and cold color types. It is mainly used for summer wardrobe, because the lightness of the shade does not imply warm clothes. Lipsticks and blush are also often tinged with scadokus.
Provocative neon shade pink

Delicate shade of tea rose

ROSES WITH AN OLD FLOWER SHAPE (ROMANTIC, NOSTALGIC ROSES) is a group of rose varieties created in the last quarter of the 20th century by the English breeder David Austin. Subsequently, the selection of such varieties was continued by other leading breeders of the world, in collaboration with companies such as Tantau, Meiyan, Cordes, Delbar, etc. Most of the varieties belong to the Shraba class, but there are also hybrid tea, and spray, and ground cover, etc. .groups. These roses are obtained by crossing French, Damask, Bourbon and other roses with modern varieties of hybrid tea roses and floribunda roses. Roses with an old flower shape, combine the advantages of old varieties of roses (cupped flowers, harmonious bush shape, a variety of flower aromas) with resistance to diseases, a variety of shades and well-defined repeated or continuous flowering inherent in modern varieties of hybrid tea roses and roses of the class floribunda. They can be low, medium, high, climbing, open, dense, sparse. Moreover, in different climatic zones, the same varieties can demonstrate different characteristics. Many varieties are shade-tolerant.Modern nostalgic roses combine the qualities that are so necessary today - strength, frost resistance, the possibility of long re-blooming, a variety of colors - with the charm of old roses, an intoxicating aroma, languid silhouette, corrugated petals.

At present, interest in antique roses is growing. But not everyone knows that old roses differ from each other in the shape of a flower, bush and aroma. Old roses include those roses that were bred before 1867. Some believe that the group includes roses that were bred prior to 1945. It is customary to call them old, antique, heritage of roses or historical. Some species of roses are also referred to as old roses.
But do not confuse these 2 concepts, because the roses that were created by mother nature are considered species. Old roses have both advantages and disadvantages: some have wild growth, others are prone to disease, and some have weak flowering.
The history of ancient roses is a common nightmare for breeders, as their pedigree is confusing, and it is almost impossible to establish it in detail. According to the world classification, old roses are divided into non-climbing and climbing. Non-planting roses include Damascus, Gallica, Centifolia, Mossy, Alba, Chinese, Tea, Portland, Bourbon, Remontant and others.
Climbing roses: Ayrshire, climbing Chinese, sempervirens, noisette, borsalt, climbing tea, etc. Sometimes, in order to establish a particular group, specialists need to do a gene analysis, because there are no distinctive features of old roses.
Gallic roses
They are also called French roses. The Gallic rose is said to be the oldest of the roses. Before the advent of Chinese roses, it was used for breeding some cultivars. The group of Gallic roses is the most numerous. All Gallic roses bloom once, the duration of flowering depends on the variety. Gallic roses are one of the hardy roses, they need a period of winter cold for good flowering.
In central Russia, these roses need a little shelter. Gallic roses are characterized by good mottling resistance. The thin, flexible branches of Gallic roses can be easily bent down for shelter for the winter. These roses form small bushes. Flowers 9 cm, double and non-double - red, pink, purple, they all have an amazing aroma. In the fall, the foliage of Gallic roses turns red.
Damask roses
Damascus roses were cultivated in ancient Rome. Rose oil is obtained from its petals. From this, the roses of this group are famous for their strong aroma. Damask roses are characterized by densely double, from pink to red, flowers (8 cm), with short pedicels and racemose inflorescences.
Damask rose blooms once, but there are varieties with repeated flowering. The curved branches of the Damask rose droop, so the bushes need a garter. Damask roses need care and nutritious soil.
Centifolia
In Europe, this rose is called cabbage. It is believed that centifolia roses are the results of the selection of Dutch rose breeders in the 16th century. Centifolia bloom once in spring or in summer with thick double flowers of pastel colors, shaped like a head of cabbage.
The flowers of centifolia roses are collected in drooping inflorescences and have a charming scent. For good flowering in central Russia, centifolia need to pin the ends of the shoots to the ground.
Moss roses
Initially, moss roses had a single flowering, their flowers had few petals. The group got its name from the green or reddish-brown hairs that cover the pedicels and sepals and resemble moss.
Then varieties with double flowers and re-blooming began to appear. Most of the varieties in this group are susceptible to powdery mildew.
Alba
The name Alba is translated as "white".Alba roses are frost-hardy - they winter well without shelter - they are resistant to diseases. Semi-double pinkish-white or white flat flowers bloom in clusters.
Erect shoots reach about two meters. The Alba group of roses tolerates shade and drought resistance well, so these roses have been widely used in park construction.
Chinese or Bengal roses
These roses passed on to their descendants many good qualities - secondary flowering, compact shape, and good resistance to diseases and pests. In addition to all this, they are the ancestors of miniature roses.
The flowers of Bengal roses are small or medium, usually without aroma and are collected in inflorescences.
Tea roses
Tea roses are bred by crossing noisette rose, Chinese rose, and roses of other groups. Tea roses are all re-blooming varieties. These are bushes with large fragrant double flowers on drooping pedicels and with a large center of pink, yellow and creamy white shades.
Unfortunately, tea roses are very thermophilic, which limits the area for their cultivation.
Portland roses
They have Damascus, Chinese and Gallic roses in their pedigree. Portland roses on hard peduncles are pink, white or red flowers.
Bourbon roses
The Bourbon rose is a cross between Damask and Chinese rose. Bourbon roses have large, double, cupped flowers. White flowers of different shades of red and pink give off a pleasant aroma. Bourbon roses bloom again, with two waves.
However, the bloom of the second wave is weak. Bourbon roses look good as a hedge. In the middle lane, shelter is required for the winter.
Repair roses
The result of crossing tea and Chinese roses. White, pink, different shades of red, double flowers with a strong aroma. Bushes of repairing roses are vigorous.
In tall rose bushes, flowering is weak, so strong pruning or bending of the shoots to the ground and abundant feeding for good flowering is recommended. Shelter is required for the winter.

Successful color combinations
In order for rose ash to look advantageous, it must be properly supported with other shades.

It will perfectly complement a dusty rose.
A combination of colors that match a pink-gray shade: dusty brown, beige, soft cornflower blue, lilac, burgundy.
If you can't find the color you want, just look to match the cool gray better. After all, pink ash is clearly not a warm shade, so all colors with a bluish or greenish tint go well with it.
What is the name of an artificially bred variety?
Genetically modified in Japan, the blue rose is marketed under the brand name Applause. At the moment, these roses are not available from collectors and are not registered. On the website of the sales company Suntory Flowers, photographs of blue roses show flowers of a delicate purple color (we wrote about purple roses here). For flower growers, the purchase of such a rose for the purpose of growing is not available.
Pink color and its meaning
Pink is the most romantic, soothing and carefree color of the entire palette of colors and shades. Most of the flowers are pink in color, and the shades are simply amazing! Cold and warm, bright and muted, blurry and variegated - any shade of pink pleases the eye, pacifies and disposes to communication. The beneficial effect of pastel pink shades is associated with a person's genetic memory of the moments of deep childhood, when, during feeding, the mother brought the baby to her breast, and he saw her pink skin in front of him. A person does not realize this, but pink, almost white shades have an incredibly pacifying effect.
Warm pinks can be used in baby clothes regardless of gender. They are neutral in their effect, and they can be used without any problems in adult fashion, without fear that the "girl in pink" will seem infantile and frivolous.
Children who live in a room decorated in warm pink colors will not be overly pampered and restless. The insinuating pink color will affect their unstable psyche in the best way. Likewise, by wearing peach-colored or sturgeon-colored clothes for difficult negotiations, all disputes will be resolved easier and more calmly.
Cool pinks are incredibly sexy! Take, for example, the image of a Barbie doll or a blonde in pink - a charming girl with long blonde hair, dressed in all pink. She, a little silly, but incredibly attractive to men, made pink popular among young people and teenagers.Frosty pink lingerie is no less erotic than provocative wine and anthracite shades, but not so provocative.
Orthodoxy has nothing to do with pink, but Catholicism and Protestantism use it during fasting before Christmas (Advent) as a symbol of joy before the upcoming celebration.
However, pink also has a negative connotation. So, pipe dreams are called "pink", just like representatives of non-traditional sexual orientation. Pink combined with black is used by the controversial emo youth subculture. A person who naively perceives life, trusting with people, is called "looking at the world through rose-colored glasses."
In general, pink is a feminine color, although feminists would disagree with that. Somehow it is not customary for boys to play with pink cars, dress in crimson overalls and shoot fuchsia pistols. However, cool pinks are considered the best choice for men's shirts and even suits in the world of haute couture. It all depends on the skill of the designer.
In floristry
It is understood that the color of the dusty rose was taken from nature. The flower has such a color during its withering period. It becomes pale, its leaves shrink and fall off. But today the floristic art is at its best. Therefore, color designers can give a rose absolutely any shade with the help of paint. The flower is not painted with a brush or an airbrush. The pigment is added to the water in which the rose stands. The flower is saturated with vital energy, and at the same time it takes away the color granules. So, within 2-3 days you can make a fashionable dusty rose from a standard white or cream rose.
Where are flowers of this shade used? Well, of course, in wedding bouquets. Most often they are supplemented with ornamental greenery and gypsophila. Also, ash roses are often coexisting with white or pink ones. A bouquet of these flowers is perfect for blondes who want to opt for something delicate.
Also, ash roses are presented by guys to their lovers. But not as a flower of parting, but vice versa. They believe that love will live forever, as can a rose. Indeed, even in a dried state, the flower remains beautiful.
What to look for when buying?
When buying seedlings, you should pay attention to the rhizome and the number of shoots. Never buy Blue River in containers. Such roses, as a rule, take root very poorly and fall out during the first wintering. Choose only bare-root seedlings for planting. In this case, the roots should be strong, thick, the plant should have at least 3 powerful straight roots and a dense mass of branched peripheral roots. Weak roots or a small number of them should be discarded immediately.
Examine the shoots in the same way. They should be very thick, strong, well branching, at a height of at least 15-20 cm, they should already be divided into 2-3 branches. Never buy seedlings with only 2 shoots. Even if there is at least one speck of unknown origin on the branches of this plant, immediately refuse to buy.
Hybrid Polyanthus Roses
Obtained by crossing Polyanthus Roses with Hybrid Tea in the 30s of the 20th century. From Polyanthus Roses, they inherited abundant and long flowering, from Hybrid Tea, they inherited a large flowering. They are bushes, as you can see the varieties of roses in the photo, the height of which reaches 60-80 cm or more.
The flowers are simple, semi-double, double, rather large, with a diameter of 4-6 cm, of various, bright colors. Flowers are collected in small inflorescences, located at the ends of the shoots, have a weak aroma. Almost continuous profuse flowering is observed until late autumn.
Hybrid-Polyanthus Roses are propagated by budding and cuttings. These are frost-resistant plants, but for the winter it is recommended to huddle them to a height of 25-30 cm.
The following varieties of Hybrid-Polyanthus Roses are known:
Pink Poulsen, Rosenmarchen - pink flowers;
Chatter, Kristen Poulsen - red flowers;
Dagman Spath - white flowers.
Blue roses - Forget-me-nots
In 1909 "Veilchelblau", in 1974 "Charles de Gaulle", "Blue Moon" - these varieties only vaguely resembled a blue rose, and more had shades of lilac, lilac color. And only in 1978 the Blue Parfum variety, in 1984 the Blue river variety (bred in Germany) - began to resemble a real blue rose. In 2009, thanks to genetic engineering in Japan, they were able to breed blue roses with bright blue petals.
In clothes
The dusty rose color was especially fond of designers. Most often, wedding or evening dresses are sewn in this shade. One of the leading designers, Elie Saab, constantly uses grayish pink in his collections. It is this shade that makes the girl feminine and fragile. But it is worth considering that, as in the case of flowers, such dresses are suitable for blondes, while a brunette in a dusty rose dress will look almost naked. It is incredibly common to see evening dresses of this shade on film actresses walking the red carpet. Even royalty periodically wear outfits in trendy colors.
But not only evening dresses are sewn in the color of dusty rose. Clothes that are considered casual can also be in this trendy shade. Today, on store shelves, you can see cute sweaters, blouses and even pale pink pants with a gray tint. But what can I say, designers even sew coats in this color. It is not surprising that other accessories such as hats, shawls, clutches, shoes and even watches are in demand in this shade.

The optimal choice for the procedure is food coloring.
- The composition is diluted according to the instructions.
- The solution is applied by watering at least twice a week.
- To make the plant easier to tolerate manipulations throughout the staining, it needs to be fed regularly.
Ink
To achieve the desired result, the original color of the rose must be white.

In ancient times, the blue rose, in view of its inaccessibility and mystery, was a symbol of belonging to the royal court. Today interest in the prickly beauty of heavenly color does not wane, but, of course, an abundance of techniques can be considered a pleasant moment, with the help of which it became possible to possess such, even if not natural, miracle from the world of flora.
If you want to get an original rose garden on your site, then try planting several shades of roses together.Yellow and red, cream and purple, two-color and bright orange buds will look very good side by side. Unusual green and black roses also coexist well on the flower bed.
In the interior
Today it is fashionable to hire designers to furnish your home. And like any other field of art, interior design has its own trends. In each season, one or another color can be distinguished, which experts give their preference to. Moreover, it can be the same shade that is used in fashion shows of clothes. So, the color of dusty rose, from floristic art and from boutiques, moved to interior design. Today you can see many living rooms and bedrooms, which are made in grayish-pink shades. This color is often used to decorate women's boudoirs or bathrooms.
But not all people want to live in a too dull interior. Therefore, the dusty pink color can be used not as the main color, but as an additional one. For example, in a white interior, pinkish-gray accents look very gentle.
Many photographers love the dusty rose color. Therefore, they design their studios in this way. Moreover, not the whole studio may look like this, but one location. This is not surprising, because on the dusty pink color, the human figure is not lost, but on the contrary, it becomes brighter.
Winter care
Despite the fact that climbing varieties of blue roses are frost-resistant, you still need to cook them for the winter. To do this, remove all faded buds, diseased and weak shoots. The bush is covered only after the air temperature drops to –5 ºС.
They do it like this:
- It is necessary to prepare small depressions in the ground, and in them to build a "bed" of dry grass and leaves, on which the shoots of the plant will fit.
- Carefully remove all the lashes from the support, roll up, tie and put on the "bed".
- Place a film or covering material on top, the edges of which should be fixed with earth embankments, leaving a small hole for air to enter.
Some gardeners do not lay the whips on the ground, but wrap them in burlap and attach them back to the base. The roots are hidden under an additional earthen layer.
