We usually see roses that have already bloomed, and few people have seen rose seeds, but if you go to the market, you can see that there are a lot of merchants who sell seeds, and you can also buy rose seeds on the Internet, so this kind of rose seeds can really grow roses? Will growing rose seeds be any different from ordinary roses?
One, to ensure that the germination rate of rose seeds
You if you have previously sown rose seeds delayed germination, because you did not do enough seed treatment before sowing. Rose seeds have dormant properties, harvested seeds directly for sowing is usually unable to germinate, to first soak the rose seeds in warm water at about 40 degrees Celsius, after the water cooled, continue to soak for 4 to 6 hours, the seeds out, soaked seeds are easy to germinate. After that, put the seeds into the soil (note: the soil needs to be loose, breathable, good water holding capacity), you can usually spot seed 5~8 seeds in each container. After germination, depending on the growth condition of the seedlings, leave one stronger one; after germination, inter-seedling, leave 1~3 seedlings as appropriate. After sowing the container should be covered with plastic wrap (convenient bag plastic film can also be), plastic wrap pierced a few small holes to breathe. Put the container in the sun, maintain a temperature of about 20 degrees. Most seeds can germinate in a week. After germination, wait for the seedlings to thrive and then transplant them into the ground.
Second, the treatment of rose seedlings
1. Planting: in the Yellow River Basin and south of the region can be planted in the ground, open ground overwintering. In the cold northern areas should be potted, indoor overwintering. Potting with a mixture of leafy soil, garden soil, river sand culture soil, and add the right amount of rotted stable fertilizer or cake fertilizer, composite fertilizer. After planting, water once thoroughly, put in the shade to slow down a few days after moving to the sun to cultivate.
2. Light and temperature: adequate sunlight can promote good growth. Whether planted in the ground, potted plants should be placed in a sunny place, to receive more than 4 hours of direct sunlight every day. Can not be placed indoors in low light for a long time. Winter into the room, put the sunny place. Suitable growing temperature 12 ~ 28 ℃, can withstand -20 ℃ low temperature.
3. Watering and fertilizing: apply appropriate amount of organic fertilizer in the tree hole before planting, and water thoroughly after planting. Ground planting roses are not strict on water and fertilizer requirements, generally there are three times the fertilizer can be. First, the pre-flowering fertilizer, in the spring bud shade.

Three, rose planting methods
1. Selection of land preparation: roses are drought-resistant, and should be selected from sunny, high and dry terrain, loose fertile soil, well-drained loam or sandy loam. Apply 3,000kg/667㎡ of compost, turn over 20~30cm deep, and then level off the soil for beds.
2. Transplantation: according to the row spacing of 1.5 ~ 2m, plant spacing 0.6 ~ 0.8m dug holes, hole depth 15 ~ 25cm; hole diameter 30 ~ 40cm, digging the bottom of the loose, into the appropriate amount of soil fertilizer, covered with 5cm of soil, grafted rose seedlings planted into the hole, the root system to the four sides of the release of the flat to make it stretch, and then cover the soil to the full hole, stamping, watering through the root of the water.
3. Pruning: cut off the slender branches and whitened old branches after flowering in late summer, and then prune again in winter after the leaves fall, mainly to cut off and cut off the overcrowded branches, pests and disease and senescent branches, which can promote the emergence of new branches, so that the buds increase. After 5-6 years of growth, roses should be updated and pruned. Before and after the fall, each plant (clump) to retain a few strong branches, the rest of the roots dug up, replanted to another piece of ground, so that the cultivation area can be expanded.
