Love flowers, love her home, pregnant mothers forget fatigue, self-study to turn an empty terrace into a rose garden that blooms brilliantly all year round.

In any season of the year, the rose garden on Ms. Hien’s terrace blooms brilliantly. Can’t believe I can grow a beautiful flower garden In the afternoon, the sun went out, Dinh Thi Dieu Hien (living in District 11, Ho Chi Minh City) went up to the terrace again, immersed in the blooming rose garden, emitting a sweet scent. She said, up to now, she does not believe that she can grow such a beautiful rose garden. Because, the rose is a species suitable for temperate climate while HCMC is hot all year round. Hien said, she grows flowers because she loves and wants to beautify her house. So, when she saw that the balconies of many houses abroad were covered with roses, she dreamed of being able to grow this flower on her balcony. The flower garden has many different types of domestic and imported roses. That passion burned even more when she noticed that there was a movement to grow infrared flowers in Vietnam. Unable to wait any longer, she ordered a pot of roses from Phu Tho province to plant on the balcony of the house. “Red is very red. Must understand to take care of flowers. At first, I only planted persimmons in the balconies. However, here the tree does not have enough sunlight, so it is very weak, giving small, few flowers. So I put the flowers on the terrace for the plants to have enough sun and then brought the plants back to the old location, “said Hien. To plant such a beautiful flower garden on the terrace, Hien spent 3 years tinkering and experimenting. Moving the trees constantly made her tired and came up with the idea to turn the empty terrace into a flower garden to grow roses. However, when moving the tree to the terrace, she had to face the reality of hot weather, burning hot sun. In order for the plant to grow well, for beautiful flowers, she tinkered and found her own flower care formula. She said: “In the balcony with little sun, every day I just spray the leaves thoroughly in the morning. If it’s too hot, in the afternoon I just mist the leaves and spray before 5pm. The fertilizing regime also reduces high-protein fertilizers because less sunlight and more protein are easy to cause diseases. In the early years, she fell under stress because the flower growing failed continuously. “When planted on the terrace, the tree will get more sun and wind. Therefore, I watered twice a day, sprayed the leaves thoroughly in the morning and afternoon. In addition, I also pay attention to shading the pot with straw, pine bark … or growing vegetables and short-rooted flowers that both provide oxygen and cool the pink roots,” she added. Insomnia, awake because of flowers She said, in order to accumulate that experience, she spent sleepless nights just thinking and trying to make the garden live and bloom beautifully. In the first year of planting flowers, Hien almost always fell into a state of stress, stress by investing effort and money, but the tree did not sprout, give buds, bloom. Up to now, she has found her own secret to being able to grow all kinds of roses on the terrace of her house. Not giving up, she joined and learned from rose-growing associations and groups. She applies that technique to her flower garden and then spends time researching and gaining more experience from the fact that she takes care of flowers every day in the garden. Finally, after 3 years, she understood and grasped the characteristics of roses. Even, she has accumulated experience and techniques for growing roses on the terrace in the year-round hot weather of Ho Chi Minh City. After 3 years, she has covered her empty terrace with many kinds of roses for bright, fragrant flowers. She shared: “Hong loves the sun, in addition to the need for 3 hours of sunshine or more, it also needs the following factors: first soil, second pot, three varieties. Fertilizer is just the last addition. My soil composition consists of: 25% finely ground alluvial soil, 45% vermicompost, treated coir, smoked rice husks, bat manure and perlite. She also noted that the mixing of the soil must ensure that the soil is loose and well-drained. Because persimmons must be planted in pots, placed on the terrace, the pots also have certain criteria. Ms. Hien’s experience is that it is necessary to choose a good drainage pot, even after buying it, she also drills more drainage holes. To maintain the flower garden, Ms. Hien spends a lot of effort and time taking care of it with her own techniques. In addition, Ms. Hien also listed techniques for fertilizing plants. She always spends a weekend to fertilize and spray her flower garden. Up to now, Ms. Hien has in hand the technique of fertilizing roses according to a specific formula and experience. One of the factors for the tree to flower wrongly and continuously is the pruning technique. These techniques include: choosing a fertilizer that provides adequate nutrition for each stage of the plant, when fertilizing, it must be applied 2-5cm from the wall of the pot, 3 days before the flowers die, apply fertilizer to provide a lot of phosphorus to stimulate the roots. For the next sprout, after cutting the flowers, fertilizing provides a lot of nitrogen, applying oil cake in combination with watering the roots with seaweed… Especially, she grows flowers without using drugs and chemical fertilizers, but only using natural products. In particular, Ms. Hien grows completely organic roses and does not use any drugs or chemical fertilizers. When it comes to dealing with pests, she only uses neem oil, orange essential oil, etc. Therefore, her flower garden is extremely safe for family members. Even now, even though she is pregnant and nearing her due date, she still goes to the terrace, goes to the rose garden to see flowers, and takes care of the plants every day. So the flower garden is not only beautiful but also very safe. Hien’s family members are very fond of flower gardens. Currently, the flower garden on the terrace of Ms. Hien has many varieties of Vietnamese roses such as: Sapa ancient roses, Hai Phong ancient roses. There are also many beautiful and attractive infrared flowers such as: Soeur Emmanuelle, Juliet, Mac Spice, Angela, Masora, Mon Coeur, Friendship of Strangers, Purple Ice Cream, Corail Gelee, Katherine Blue, Amandine Chanel , Pope John Paul II, Double Delight… Even though she is pregnant, Hien can still go to the flower garden to look at the flowers and inhale the sweet fragrance of the roses. Ms. Hien further shared that, in order for roses to have beautiful and regular flowers, tree pruning occupies an extremely important position in the care process. For each type of persimmon, she has a specific way of pruning branches. In addition to roses, Hien is currently growing some fresh vegetables and fruits to add to her menu every day. She shared: “When the persimmon lines are cut, keep watching from the flower to 5-6 axillary leaves, choose the axillary with the most beautiful sprout eye to cut. The bush line should be cut 2-3 axillary leaves, inflorescence line, cut below 4-5 leaf axils. “Cut off all the bad branches, the tree is easy to give root sprouts with long bunches of flowers. If you want the tree to bloom at the same time, when you cut the dead flowers, you should cut them only once, if the flowers bloom before they fade, just leave them on the tree and wait for them to bloom. After finishing, cut it,” added Hien. Posts: Nguyen Son Image: Characters provided
