Rosa odorata, commonly known as the Tea Rose, is a climbing shrub or liana native to temperate regions. It is part of the Rosaceae family and is known for its fragrant flowers. The plant typically undergoes a dormancy period during the colder months.
Rosa odorata thrives in environments with bright, direct sunlight and moderate temperatures. It prefers a humid atmosphere and should be watered when the soil partially dries out. Regular care includes monitoring for pests and diseases.
土壤
This plant prefers well-draining loamy soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot, and the soil should be rich in organic matter.
肥料
Rosa odorata benefits from a balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 5-10-5. Fertilize during the growing season to promote healthy growth and flowering.
换盆
Repotting is necessary when the plant outgrows its container or when the soil becomes depleted. This is typically done in early spring before new growth begins.
传播
Propagation can be done through cuttings or layering. The best time to propagate is during the growing season when the plant is actively producing new growth.
修剪
Pruning is essential for maintaining the shape and health of Rosa odorata. It should be done in late winter or early spring to remove dead or diseased wood and encourage new growth.
毒性
Rosa odorata is not toxic to pets or humans. However, care should be taken with the thorns, which can cause physical injury.
额外的
Regular deadheading of spent flowers can encourage more blooms and maintain the plant's appearance. Mulching around the base can help retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.
