Rosa Emilien Guillot: description and photo

For a small area or a garden that occupies a huge space, a magnificent ornament will be the rose Emilen Guillot - a variety with strikingly bright orange flowers. Correctly chosen place for planting and correctly designed composition allow creating a landscape of extraordinary beauty.

Description

Rosa Emilian Guillot (Emilien Guillot) was bred in 1997 in honor of the heir of the Guillot dynasty. Its main distinguishing features are large (up to 12 cm in diameter), very dense flowers, the bright color of which creates the impression of a glow coming from within. Especially it is noticeable against a background of dark green foliage. Flowers stay on the bush for a long time - from 2 to 3 weeks, giving off aromas resembling apricots, rose oil and white pepper. Only with prolonged exposure to direct sunlight does their petals change color slightly, acquiring a not very beautiful coral shade.

The average height of the bush is 80-100 cm, width - up to 70 cm.

Selecting a landing site

Rose Emilen Guillot, the description of which is given above, loves good lighting, moisture, air and heat. In this way, it practically does not differ from other varieties. Plants that do not lack sunlight and air will long delight with their magnificent flowers.

The ideal site for this rose is one that has a slope to the south. Sun rays in the first half of the day are especially important - the abundant evaporation of moisture from the leaf surface significantly reduces the risk of the plant from fungal diseases.

Unfavorable affects the development of the bush planting it in the lowlands. High humidity caused by the accumulation of rain or meltwater, weak air circulation can lead to the death of the plant. In addition, in such places the soil is too cold. Heat-loving rose Emilen Guillot does not tolerate drafts and strong wind, so do not land it on the hills or between buildings.

The nearest trees should be at a sufficient distance from the flowers, so they can not block them from the light, make it difficult to develop roses.

Requirements for soil

Particular attention when planting roses is given to the level of groundwater, which these plants do not tolerate. It should not be higher than 120 cm. Rosa Emilen Guillaud prefers loamy soils rich in nutrients. Through them, moisture and air penetrate well. Sandy soils are not suitable for planting: in summer they overheat excessively, and in winter, on the contrary, they freeze. In clay soil roots often lack oxygen, excess moisture slows growth, and the plant can eventually die.

Sandy soils need to be improved by adding rotted manure, peat, turf and lime to them, and clayey soils - sand and compost. It is important to make good drainage.

One of the most important characteristics of the soil is acidity. For a rose, the pH should be between 6 and 7 units. At a lower value, lime or gypsum can be added, with high - ferrous sulphate or sulfur.

Preparing a landing pit

Like any other bush varieties, the rose Emilen Guillot grows very strong over time. The photo and the description of the plant serve as a clear confirmation of this fact. Therefore, the landing pit is prepared sufficiently large. The earth for refueling should have a qualitative soil-mechanical composition. It adds the components of acidity, as already mentioned above.

If the planting is carried out to the same place where the roses used to grow, it will require a complete replacement of the soil with the addition of a large amount of organic matter, since in connection with the depletion of land and the accumulation of pathogenic organisms in it, the seedling may die.

It is advisable to prepare the pit in advance: weeks to two before planting, or even better from autumn.

How to plant a rose

Time to perform these works is selected in accordance with the weather conditions of the region. In the northern regions, planting is done in the spring, and where the climate is more moderate, roses can be transplanted in the fall.

Seedling is cut in such a way that it leaves from 3 to 5 shoots, each of which must have 3 buds. Before planting it is desirable to sustain the roots in a special solution consisting of diluted in water manure and clay (1: 2, respectively). This will create a good nutrient environment for them for the first time after planting. So much better and faster will the rose Emilen Guillot.

Features of care

Immediately after planting, it is necessary to ensure high-quality watering. It is necessary that the seedling obtain additional moisture, and also to ensure that the soil at the roots is better laid. If the earth has strongly settled, it is added to the required level. Save the moisture will help hilling with the use of compost. It is especially necessary when there are sunny days and the rose can dry before it takes root. Approximately two weeks later the harvesting is done.

To get a lush bush of good shape in just one year will help to carry out a short pruning. Within 3 weeks after planting the plant is recommended to water stimulants. The first buds that appeared on it before the moment of rooting, you need to pinch it, so as not to waste energy on flowering. The main thing that is necessary for a rose to show itself in all its glory is moisturizing and soil rich in nutrients.

Preparing for winter

Like most varieties, Emilen Guillaume's rose needs shelter for the winter. But before that, it is necessary to carry out some preparatory work. In September, pinch the tips of shoots and stop watering and weeding. Until the first frosts come, spend sanding up to about 50 cm high. On the lower part of the bush, the leaves are peeled off and dusted with ashes. Unscheduled shoots must be removed.

When the air temperature drops below zero, the branches are bent to the ground, placing boards under them. As a shelter, use a dense non-woven material, folded into 4 layers. Above it you can put a sheet of roofing material. Before you place the shelter, it is desirable to install a small frame above the bush. It can be built from metal or wooden slats.

In the spring, after the snow comes down, the shelter is removed, the damaged shoots are cut off and then returned to the place. Finally, it is removed only when the land is fully warmed up. Branches are neatly straightened, removing dead sprouts, then adding fertilizer and mulching the soil around the bush.

Diseases and pests

Due to its resistance against various diseases, Emilen Guillot does not differ much from other varieties of rose. Comments gardeners note among the most common problems in these colors are the following:

• Fusarium rot - this fungal disease affects the roots of the plant, resulting in nutrients cease to flow to the shoots and they, in turn, die. Against it is very effective drug called "Fungicide Fundazol", which, unfortunately, does not enter the retail market.
• The spotting of the leaves can be different: septorian, black, phyllostic. In any case it is expressed in the form of spots appearing on the leaves of the plant in the middle of summer. In the fight against any spotting, spraying with 1% Bordeaux mixture helps.
• Necrosis of the cortex causes an infection. It is hidden in the bark of the plant. In spring, young shoots become infected, which leads to shrinking of the bush during the year. Determine the presence of this disease can be on brownish spots and cracks on the stems of the plant. All affected parts should be immediately removed and treated with a Bordeaux mixture, as well as with leaf patches.
• Powdery mildew is expressed in the appearance on the leaves of white plaque. Gradually, this leads to the fact that the shoots are deformed, get a brown color and wither. Against powdery mildew spray is applied with colloidal sulfur.
• Perotosporosis, or downy mildew. The spots appearing on the leaves are yellow or brown in color. The warm and rainy weather contributes to the development of this disease. To save flowers from death as a result of perontosporosis, timely application of fertilizing, removal of diseased shoots and leaves, as well as treatment with copper oxychloride or Bordeaux liquor helps.

Pest insects are divided into sucking and gnawing. The first suck the nutritious juices from the plant. These include cicadas, aphids, spider mites, scutes. They are sprayed with roses with "Inta-Vir", "Aktara", "Phytoferm", "Actellik". The fact that the plant is damaged by gnawing insects is evidenced by eaten leaves and shoots. Finding on the bush leaf rollers, earwigs, caterpillars, weevil beetles, we need to collect and destroy them. With a plentiful invasion of pests, the same drugs that are used to combat sucking insects will help.
