Which roses are the most unpretentious and winter-hardy for the Moscow region?


Types and classification of winter-hardy roses

There is a modern classification that divides all frost-resistant varieties of roses into 3 groups:

  1. Absolutely winter-hardy flowers are also in an upright position in winter, withstanding the lowest temperatures and do not require special care;
  2. winter-hardy roses are also vertically positioned during wintering, but in severe frosts there is a tendency to freeze; average degree of stability do not require shelter in mild winters and freeze only to the level of snow, so they need to be bent.

How to choose roses for growing in Siberia and the Urals

The harsh climate of these regions dictates its own rules for choosing ornamental plants. Winters here are long, spring is late, warm days are rare. Seedlings should be purchased already adapted to such weather conditions. Unpretentious varieties of perennial roses for these regions are considered:

  • Residence;
  • Stadt rum;
  • Popsicle;
  • Larissa;
  • Fairy;
  • Sunny fairy tale;
  • Jazz.

For the northwestern regions, it is better to choose creeping ground cover varieties of the following species:

  • patios – low-growing, ridged, landscaped;
  • floribunda - landscape, flower beds with abundant flowering;
  • Canadian - Aisha, Queen of the North, Casanova, Abusta.

The last group is most preferable, since in Canada the climate is the same as in northern Russia. Roses grafted onto mother plants grown in Siberia or the Urals tolerate severe frosts well.

Note! Winter-hardy roses intended for cultivation in harsh climates must be resistant to pests and diseases

Planting and care

Climbing roses - varieties of permanent flowering - prefer sunny areas located on the south side. Thanks to good lighting, the development of growth is accelerated, and already next summer after planting, abundant flowering can be observed. It is unacceptable to plant young plants in lowlands, as roses do not tolerate stagnant moisture.

Important! In cases where flowers are planted for the purpose of decorating an object, it is best to plant a seedling 50 cm from it. Experts advise planting bushes in the spring months at sunset. In autumn, seedlings do not have time to adapt and most often die

Experts advise planting bushes in the spring months at sunset. In autumn, seedlings do not have time to adapt and most often die.

Continuously blooming varieties of roses will decorate the area and do not require complex care.

Planting process:

  1. First of all, the holes are prepared, the size of which should be within 50x50 cm.
  2. The prepared hole is filled with water.
  3. The seedling is planted in a hole, which is filled with soil and compacted. If you trim the above-ground part of the plant by 15 cm, you can be sure of rapid growth and rich flowering in the future.

Important! If you still need to plant a bush in the fall, it is best to do this in September, when the rose has time to take root, but does not begin to grow. In the following years after planting, the seedlings do not require complex care, but it is important to carry out in a timely manner: In the following years after planting, the seedlings do not require complex care, but it is important to carry out in a timely manner:

In the following years after planting, the seedlings do not require complex care, but it is important to carry out in a timely manner:

  • bush pruning;
  • watering;
  • application of fertilizers.

Pruning shrubs allows you to give the plants the desired shape. It is recommended to water roses every 7-8 days, and add organic matter and minerals to the soil as top dressing.

Note! Plants are planted at a slight slope to the support. If planting is carried out near the house, such a distance should be provided so that the water that will drain does not collect at the roots

Pruning a climbing rose

Thanks to timely pruning, the plant becomes powerful. In addition, through this procedure, you can realize any design ideas and give the bushes a unique image.

If you provide proper care, you can achieve a good growth of young shoots in the first year after planting.

Rose pruning

Almost all varieties of climbing roses need shelter for the winter. As soon as the threat of spring frosts has passed, you should open the bushes and trim off the dead or frozen part of the plant.

The long part of the shoots should be spread on the surface of the ground, which will make it possible to examine the replacement shoots. Tying the bush to supports is possible only after the length of the shoots reaches 70-75 cm.

Old shoots are replaced by several fresh ones. As a rule, a small part (2-3 pieces) of one-year-old branches and about 4-5 two-year-old branches are removed.

In cases where a rose blooms several times in one season, flowering shoots should be left for several years. They begin to weaken only at the 5th year of life.

Important! It is recommended to inspect vegetative shoots during pruning because flowering tends to focus on last year's stems. Young shoots are removed to avoid thickening of the bush

Shrub rose varieties for the Moscow region. Popular ones include Alexandra Kent, Crown Princess Margaret, Claire Austen (standard) and the famous William Shakespeare. They all have different colors and complement each other perfectly.

Claire Austin

Another British rose bred by David Austin. Feels great in the Moscow region. The aroma of the flowers is pronounced and rich, tea-like with notes of myrrh and vanilla. In this case, flowering occurs in two stormy waves. The first occurs in mid-June, and the second starts in August and continues until mid-September. The bush is powerful, well leafy. In the Moscow region, the plant is grown as a floribunda.

Claire Austin prefers fertile and well-moistened soils without stagnant water. For planting, it is better to select well-lit areas, but partially shaded areas are also suitable. Maintenance is not a problem: it is enough to periodically weed and loosen the soil, water once a week and treat against diseases and pests.

Fertilizer should be applied three times per season: after wintering, at the beginning of flowering and in the second half of summer. Once every 5 years, it is recommended to remove woody shoots so that young shoots have the opportunity to develop.

Preparing roses for winter should begin in October. The shoots are bent as close to the ground as possible and securely fixed. When persistent frosts begin, it is necessary to remove all leaves from the plant to prevent the development of fungus. The shoots are covered with spruce branches and non-woven material so that they do not freeze. Experts recommend carrying out such manipulations not for one rose, but for several bushes at once, so that they are warmer. It is necessary to open the plant when the soil thaws by about 15 centimeters. Until this point, it’s best to just ventilate and lighten the shelter a little.

"Queen Elizabeth" has soft pink petals, tightly gathered into a semi-double flower. They fade in the sun, losing color saturation. The buds form a large cluster of up to 15 flowers. Every six years it is necessary to carry out rejuvenating pruning of the bush, which means removing the shoots almost at the root in early spring. It is the first representative of the “grandiflora” category, although this group is not recognized in all countries.

"Arthur Bell" - floribunda rose. Starts to bloom early. Remontant. The yellow petals fade under the rays, so it’s worth shading, but not too much. Smells like sweet fruits. Accustomed to the weather of Northern Europe.

"JP Connell" is a yellow rose from the Explorer collection. Petals are pastel lemon yellow. Does not form large brushes. Red stamens “sit” in the center of the cup-shaped double flowers. Without pruning, the crown becomes vigorous. Produces wavy blooms.

Park roses are one of the best varieties that can perfectly decorate any garden plot, not only in the southern regions, but also in central Russia, as well as in the Moscow region. Quite severe winters, not always warm and dry summers - not all varieties of ordinary roses can be grown in such conditions, but among the park roses there are many varieties adapted to such conditions.


Park roses are one of the best varieties that can perfectly decorate any garden plot.

In addition, the winter hardiness of many of these “queen of flowers” ​​gardening bushes is so high that these plants do not need to be covered during the cold season. Therefore, park roses, like some other flowering shrubs that do not require shelter for the winter, are so actively planted in many garden plots in the central regions, in the central zone of our country, including in the Moscow region.

Leonardo da Vinci

The rose belongs to the floribunda group. The variety was bred by Alain Meyland in 1994 and included in the Romance collection.

The plant produces double flowers up to 10 centimeters in diameter. Color – bright pink. The buds can be single or collected in brushes of up to 4 pieces. The scent of the rose is not too bright, fruity. The bush itself is powerful and can reach a meter in height.

It is advisable to plant Leonardo da Vinci in a sunny area, but slight partial shade is also allowed. The most important thing is to protect the plant from strong winds and drafts, as well as melt water. Planting is carried out in late April-early May or mid-September-October.

The seedling must be strong and healthy. An important condition is 3-4 strong green shoots and a good root system. It is best to buy plants from specialized nurseries.

In order for a rose to bloom profusely and for a long time, it needs to be looked after regularly. The worst effect on it is drought. Therefore, watering should be constant: once a week, 10-12 liters. In autumn, their frequency is sharply reduced, starting to prepare the plant for winter. But if the weather is dry and hot, then watering should still be done.

Fertilizers are introduced in the second year of planting, since when planting there should already be enough nutrients in the ground.

It is worth noting that the variety is resistant to almost all diseases, but it is still worth carrying out preventive treatments, especially against fungus. In addition, you need to ensure that the plant does not suffer from parasites.

In late autumn, the rose should be covered by first removing all its leaves and reducing the shoots by a third. The base of the bush is sprinkled with soil with peat or humus.

How to choose a site for planting

Before you start planting park roses, you need to choose the right place for this. A sunny area with good ventilation, but not too open, is more suitable for plants. But these roses can easily come to terms with partial shade.

  • contains many nutrients;
  • light and loose;
  • soil acidity is close to neutral (pH 6-7).

Loam is most suitable for such conditions. If the garden has soils with different characteristics, the composition is adjusted by adding the missing elements.

All that remains is to choose a planting scheme and dig holes in accordance with it.

If you plan to plant a group of plants, the distance between them should be about a meter, and the row spacing should be up to two meters wide. When planting near supports, maintain a distance of 50 cm from them.

Caring for the plant, in general, is not difficult. Every spring you need to do sanitary pruning, as well as garter. Sometimes you need to apply fertilizer. Faded buds must be removed for the aesthetic appearance of the crop.

Resistance to black spot and powdery mildew is moderate. The plant can withstand frosts down to -26 degrees, but it is still worth covering it for the winter. Spruce branches or special material are suitable for this. The procedure is carried out after the first frost, removing all buds and leaves from the bush. The soil must be loosened so that the roots can breathe. The shoots are left on a bed of parchment and spruce branches so that they do not rot from melt water.

There are several ways to grow New Down. Finding support, the shoots can branch in all directions, making it quite possible to create a flowering wall in your area. They can also be placed on a balcony, fence, terrace or gazebo.

Rule #9: Cover your roses for the winter

Option for air-dry covering of roses for the winter

Roses should be wrapped for the winter. Bushes should be prepared for hibernation in mid-October. Before this procedure, autumn sanitary pruning is carried out, during which it is necessary to remove leaves, unripe buds and shoots - all this is burned.

For preventive purposes, treat roses with 1% Bordeaux mixture or 3% iron sulfate. Give preference to air-dry covering of roses. Before you cover the plant, do not forget to insulate the roots: pour a layer of peat or soil (20-30 cm) under the bush.

A little care and attention - and floribunda will definitely bloom for you all summer, filling the air in your dacha with a magical aroma.

Morden Blush

Named after the Canadian town of Morden, this scrub variety is one of the most popular in the Parkland series. Abundant repeat flowering and normal disease resistance (especially in places with prevailing dry weather) are two coins in the treasury of the advantages of the Morden Blush variety. Petals with a light peach-pink blush, collected in densely double buds (diameter 5-6 cm), acquire an ivory hue by the end of flowering. A bush with matte foliage reaches 90-100 cm in height.

Brief description of varieties suitable for the Moscow region

Florentina flower with a yellow heart inside.

The Moscow region belongs to USDA zone 4, which corresponds to minimum temperatures in winter from -28 to -34. Accordingly, the most suitable varieties for cultivation here will be varieties with high frost resistance. But this is a conditional criterion, since even more heat-loving roses take root in the Moscow region, but require full shelter in winter. Also, varieties with recommended growing zones below 4 can freeze severely in winter, as a result the most magnificent flowering will be suppressed.

Cordes roses are considered the most suitable for cultivation in this region. Canadian varieties are also distinguished by increased endurance, but due to their external characteristics they are more of an acquired taste. In the gardens of the Moscow region you can also find roses from Tantau, Somerset Rose Nursery, Boerner, David Austin and others.

What criteria must be taken into account when choosing a rose for growing in the Moscow region:

  1. Tolerance to changes in climatic conditions. Since the middle zone is characterized by a full passage of all four seasons with their characteristic weather conditions.
  2. Disease resistance. The off-seasons characteristic of the region with high humidity and frequent absence of sun increase the risk of many ailments that easily spread in such a climate.
  3. It is worth choosing varieties with reduced sun requirements. For more than six months, the daylight hours in this region do not correspond to those necessary for the full development of the rose, and accordingly the plant’s immunity decreases.

As a result, even among the varieties that meet the above criteria, lovers of the queen of the garden have a huge choice in color, type of flower, and aroma. Below we will look in more detail at several varieties that are most often chosen by gardeners in this region.

White Meidiland

Terry white flowers up to 8 cm in diameter look impressive against the background of small dark leaves. The White Meidiland variety readily grows several meters in width, so it is perfect for borders. It is frost-resistant, so it does well in the Moscow region.

Floribunda rose in landscape design

In country houses and garden plots, floribunda is often used as hedges. Varieties of roses with a strong aroma are recommended to be placed near houses and gazebos. Low-growing shrubs look great as a frame for garden paths and alpine slides. Tall roses, together with other flowers, are placed in the background.

A single floribunda placed in a lush lawn looks incredibly gorgeous and can alone create a striking accent. Such a solo rose will mean more than a whole rose garden of simpler types of roses.

Floribunda in the garden will always attract attention

Floribunda is a general name for a number of magnificent roses with excellent decorative characteristics, unpretentiousness and resistance to diseases. This is an excellent solution in landscape design, because even one rose can decorate the most modest garden.

Varieties of frost-resistant roses for wintering without shelter in cold regions

Inexperienced owners of country houses do not dare to plant roses, considering them very capricious and unable to withstand harsh winters.

Types and classification of winter-hardy roses

Roses that can survive winter without shelter are divided into three groups:

  • absolutely winter-hardy, wintering in an upright position and withstanding even harsh winters - practically do not require any care or attention from the gardener;
  • winter-hardy, able to survive the winter in an upright position, but in severe frosts they can freeze;
  • Medium-winter-hardy varieties can do without shelter in regions with mild winters and can freeze to the level of snow. In order to prevent death, such varieties must be bent and covered with snow.

The highest frost resistance is present in park roses - they are bred from wild rose hips, but now it is difficult to recognize the humble great-grandfather in the magnificent flowers. Canadian varieties, developed as part of a special program, can withstand up to 45 degrees of frost; they can be safely chosen even by residents of the northern regions.

Park frost-resistant roses are used for landscaping urban gardens, but nothing prevents you from growing them on your personal plot, making your work easier and reducing the risk of losing your garden favorites.

Popular varieties of hardy roses

The most popular frost-resistant rose bears the symbolic name “Polar Star” (Polstjarnan); it was bred back in the thirties of the last century. This is a climbing plant that blooms with beautiful fragrant flowers that attract with a delicate tea aroma. The flowers are very beautiful creamy white and bloom from early summer to late autumn. The height of the bush reaches 120 cm.

Emelie is another climbing Canadian beauty that does not need winter shelter. The plant blooms profusely with large flowers up to 15 cm in diameter, and in addition to the flowers it is decorated with hard shiny leaves. Bush height – up to 110 cm.

Gallant rose (R. Eglanteria) is another “snow maiden” that is not afraid of winter cold. This representative of the gardens was also bred from wild rose hips and is very similar in appearance to its ancestor. It attracts with the original aroma of green apple, grows quickly, tolerates partial shade and is resistant to diseases.

Romance (Romanze) is a beautifully flowering shrub with large flowers, up to 12 cm in size, with a pleasant aroma. It blooms twice a year and has lush foliage.

Gartentraume is a shrub-shaped plant with double flowers of a very pleasant aroma. This variety looks impressive when planted in groups of 3-5 specimens or as a hedge covering an unattractive blank fence. Ideal for growing in flowerpots.

Midsummer is a low shrub up to one meter high, blooms with pretty double two-color flowers with a faint aroma. Midsummer grows little more than a meter in height and blooms in mid-summer.

Piccolo is a low-growing shrub 40-50 cm high, attractive with abundant flowering, rapid growth and good branching. Delicate salmon-red double flowers, 8-10 cm in diameter, attract with the aroma of tea rose.

Of course, frost-resistant, uncovered roses require less time and easier care, but they also need protection from disease, pruning, fertilizing and other actions to promote growth and flowering.

If you don’t have a suburban area, but really want to have your own garden, make a florarium or plant a flower garden on the balcony. If this is not possible, get infected with indoor floriculture.

Hansaland

This Rugosa rose hybrid is great for creating a hedge. Semi-double, medium-sized flowers (diameter 3-5 cm) of bright red color seem to glow from within. The compact upright bush reaches 150-180 cm in height. Repeat-blooming roses of the Hansaland variety are distinguished by excellent resistance to disease, and they are also not afraid of the vagaries of the weather.
