Mini rose plant care
Miniature rose plant can be grown indoors for a limited time. They need high light and humidity to bloom well. Additional artificial lights and a moist pebble tray will help improve their growing requirements during the winter. They should be kept moist at all times but not allowed to stand in water; drain any excess water so that roots won’t drown and rot. A cool spot (60-72F) with bright indirect sunlight will encourage reblooming. If the plant is actively growing feed it with a flowering houseplant fertilizer to encourage new blooms. Remove any withered blooms and yellowing leaves.
Maintain your mini rose till spring time (cooler climate areas) then plant it in the ground when all danger of frost has passed. Plant it in a sunny location with at least 1/2 day sun and in well-drained, rich, organic soil. Prune the plant 5 inches from the ground, removing any dead canes and water in thoroughly.
This Valentine’s Day I received a Mini rose plant. The next day I found it laying out of its pot, I quickly plant it back in. It’s been a few days and I fear it might die. It looks very sad, part of it is dry. Honestly I don’t know what to do.
Browning rose buds
I have a pink mini that I place by a big window. I brought it home when it had a few buds and since the buds either dries up or turns black. The plant itself is leafing out, has a little mildew problem, and it just won’t bloom. Any ideas? Thanks!
Thanks for the reply. Yes I looked up just now it appears to be botrytis. Further I try to remove a bit of soil covering and the main stem near the root is black! I guess the poor thing is a goner? ;( weird thing tho is it keeps on trying to sprout more leaves.
