It may seem to you that this is old and commonplace. But in fact, a rose can be different: elegant, delicate, playful, cheerful, noble, and it accordingly gives this mood to the atmosphere, guests and hosts.

The design of the courtyard should be beautiful, because this is the face of the hostess

Advantages and disadvantages

If you still doubt whether it is worth using roses on a personal plot, we will consider all the attendant advantages and disadvantages of such a choice.

Benefits

Ideas

Since we decided to use roses in garden design, we will consider interesting ideas on how to apply them correctly. There are no concrete strict options for arranging the plot with roses - who said that you need to act one way or another? But within the framework of one project, one should adhere to the established rules in order to achieve the desired result. Therefore, we offer possible ideas and schemes, how to translate them into reality.

We study in more detail the proposed options and methods for their implementation.

You can equip the site in any way

You can decorate with roses anything

Vertical rose garden

This option is very convenient for arranging a shady arbor. Using curly roses, you will achieve the desired effect, and turn an ordinary gazebo into a fairy corner. To do this, plant bushes at a distance of half a meter from the walls of the gazebo close enough dense. Then you need to make mounts. Drive short pegs into the ground next to the bush (so as not to damage the root), tie a tight rope to it (preferably white twine), and fix it on the walls and roof of the gazebo in accordance with which pattern you want to achieve.

As soon as the rose begins to sprout, you need to direct it along the rope, thereby securing it to it. Further, she herself will adhere to this support.

Another beautiful and unusual version of the vertical rose garden is the arch. Such an element in the landscape design of your site will give it some zest. It is built on the same principle as the frame of the gazebo, but instead of ropes, a metal arch becomes a support. If desired, several ropes can be fixed on this base to give a larger volume to the composition.

As soon as the rose begins to grow, it must be directed in the right direction

Hedge

We are used to seeing hedges built from bushes of a certain type. But you can create it from roses. Such an idea will look even better, and when it blooms - especially.

You can build such a miracle both in front of the yard and in the back yard, and frame the path from the gate to the house. The composition will look beneficial in any area of ​​the site and fulfill its function.

There is nothing complicated in its manufacture. The case is divided into several stages. The first is the most important stage: it is necessary to draw a plan for the location of the hedge. You can realize any ideas: from a simple line to the most bizarre forms. In order not to get confused, and subsequently correctly plant the bushes, having achieved the desired pattern, do not ignore this stage.

You need to choose the color of roses carefully

We transfer the drawing to the surface of the earth. After calculating the required space, the distance between the bushes and the shape of the hedge, make notes on the land intended for planting.

We turn to the choice of roses. For hedges, it is better to use stunted bushes. They are usually compact, similar to balls, so they can create a hedge effect, especially if you put them close. But make sure that the distance is sufficient for the normal functioning of the plant, and the roots do not interfere with each other.

It remains to complete what has been started, and to plant the bushes in the holes made in the previously designated places.

You can use tall bushes or medium ones. But they will leave gaps below, and framing the path, interfere with the free passage. The most profitable option is a stunted species.

Roses can be combined with other colors.

Songs

We approach the most interesting. Here you can combine all the techniques of landscape design, and turn fantasy into a life.

When composing a composition, it is necessary to take into account all the nuances. Let's see what awaits us. In general, pay attention to:

• location (shadow, light, humidity);
• the presence of a strictly designed layout;
• number and type of roses;
• the presence of other plants;
• compatibility of roses with other elements of the composition;
• ease of subsequent care.

So what do we mean? Using roses to compose a composition with inanimate elements, pay attention that there is enough space for the roots to develop, also the convenience of watering, and whether some elements will create an unfavorable atmosphere for the growth of the plant (for example, a pond). When combining with other plants, be sure to ask if they will take root together.

As in the previous version, this one requires an exact plan, even more strict. The main element in the proposed compositions will be an inanimate object (fountain, pond), and roses serve as an arrangement, so you need to focus on it. Make all the necessary measurements, calculate the required amount of space and material, and also create an accurate drawing of the location of objects. To do this, it is better to invite a landscape designer, which will significantly reduce your work and time.

So, many housewives dream of their own "swan lake." Why not? It is quite possible to create in your yard. Start at the pond. Make a good water supply and pumping system.We focus on the latter, since poor water circulation will lead to its flowering, the formation of an unpleasant odor.

Creating stunning landscaping with roses is easy

The stone “savage” is better suited to frame the pond. He will give ease to appearance. However, you can use any decorative stone.

Having made the main part, we proceed to the subsequent design. We arrange roses planting. In accordance with the plan, we plant the plants in the appropriate order. It is better to plant them a short distance around the pond, or to make a flower bed next to them. A bench is good for such a composition. It can also be decorated with roses, and make a path to it from the pond, falling asleep with small gravel and planting undersized species along it.

The main detail in the next idea is the fountain. The first and second stages are no different. It is also necessary to draw a plan, and purchase a good system for proper circulation of water in the fountain. Then complete the composition with roses.

You can also use the waterfall as a base - this combination will also be attractive. If you do not want to deal with water, make a dry pond. To do this, you need a frame made of any stone (as for a pond with water only low). Fill the resulting form with small pebbles, you can draw something inside, painting certain areas. To do this, use spray paint, or pre-soak groups of pebbles in a different kind of paint.

So, you can create any composition using everything at hand.

Design can be created from improvised means

Flowers and colors

Using roses in landscape design, they can be combined with other plants or inanimate objects (as in the above examples). To do this correctly and safely for the plant, pay attention to the following factors:

• compatibility of plants (the required amount of moisture, light, etc.);
• whether artificial inclusions interfere with the normal growth of the flower;
• from an aesthetic point of view - color combinations.

These three factors are fundamental when arranging the garden and yard with roses. Be sure to monitor their implementation.
