Indoor rooms can no doubt be called flower queens. They are popular and require proper care.

Plants need not only general care: top dressing, watering, access to fresh air, observation. Pruning is important for heavy and constant flowering.

The procedure is vital to your rose, because it contributes to its development and rejuvenation.

There are three types of pruning plants.:

Pruning weak shoots that go beyond the contour. It is necessary for full growth.
Formative pruning. It promotes flowering and is held every year.
Pruning fading and old shoots is carried out every season.

The room rose is cut when the bud has fully opened, and it can almost see the middle.

Features pruning in spring, summer, autumn and winter

The main pruning takes place in late winter - early spring. Then, when the flower begins to grow actively. This is the time to get rid of dried leaves and stems. Pruning roses also depends on the seasons. The season plant also affects the house plant.

In the spring pruned branches damaged by dry air and pests. Not affected branches just need to be shortened to stimulate flowering.
Summer pruning of dead wood is important (dry flowers, branches, leaves). It is necessary to monitor the appearance of extra shoots and cut them. They can cause fungal infections. To stimulate flowering, summer pruning is carried out in early August, but only for plants that bloom several times a year. The indoor rose should be kept open from time to time.
In the autumn pruning the top and withered flowers. Some varieties stimulate secondary flowering. Pruning during this period is especially useful: the nutrients are prepared for the next season and the root system is nourished.
Winter pruning. To stimulate growth and flowering, the plant needs pruning for the winter. It is held after the flower sheds leaves. This procedure must go through those roses that need to be covered. During this pruning, even before frost, the stalks are shortened and the immature shoots are removed. In order not to infect a flower with fungal diseases, you will need a sharp sterile knife. It is necessary to cut the branches, leaving 3-4 buds.
The main winter pruning is carried out at the end of February, when the buds just started to swell. At this time the room should be cool. Then the injury will not harm, as the growth process slows down.

What parts of a houseplant are removed?

wild stems growing from the base;
fresh shoots that will not survive the cold;
branches growing in the direction of the stem of a bush;
dried twigs and flowers;
old shoots that are more than three years old.

When can a part of a plant be removed and when not?

When flowering once a year, in the fall, roses form decorative fruits, in this case the flowers of the plant are not removed.
In summer, growth of shoots is undesirable. It is stimulated by pruning wilted flowers. Therefore, the procedure does not need to be carried out at this time of year.
It is necessary to remove the wild shoots growing at the base of the rose. If you do not carry out the pruning procedure, it can cause the death of the plant.
Cut branches and remove leaves should be in the fall. This will help the plant not to become infected with fungal diseases.

What is the difference procedure before, during and after flowering?

When pruning during flowering, you should leave at least 3 buds per branch. This contributes to the rejuvenation of the rose and activates the growth process.
Before flowering only weak shoots are cut. It is necessary for the formation and full growth of a healthy plant.
After flowering, dry branches and buds should be removed. This is conducive to the growth of room beauty.
You can cut the cuttings with 2 - 3 buds from the part of the plant whose flowers have already faded. They will be needed for further reproduction.

For the procedure will need:

garden gloves;
sharp and sterile pruner;
basket for scraps.

Trimming:

Peduncle. Pruning of the peduncle is obligatory when the plant has faded and does not have enough strength for future flowering.

Stem. It is necessary to remove the dark and dull stems of the plant. If the stem is only half damaged, it should be cut a little higher than the orbit.
The movement of air, which is important for the plant, can be hindered by weak and thin growth, growing in the direction of the stem of the bush. It should be cut at the base.
Leaves. In the autumn and spring seasons, the leaves are cut for health purposes. This contributes to the lush bloom of home beauty.
