Reproduction methods
Rose Boeing (Boeing) is propagated in a universal way (cuttings, layering, ready-made seedlings).
Propagation using ready-made seedlings is used more often than other methods. The material is transplanted into open ground in spring or autumn. Young Boeing rose plants are prepared in advance for moving:
- The seedlings are kept in a solution that stimulates root formation for about two days;
- when planting in groups, the distance between the holes should be at least 50 cm;
- planting holes are moistened abundantly (10 liters per seedling);
- the depth and width of the hole must be at least 50 cm;
- The seedlings are placed in the holes, sprinkled with earth to the level of the grafting bud, and watered.
The planting location for the hybrid white tea rose Boeing variety should be chosen in sunny areas and in light shade. The soil must meet the requirements:
- well drained;
- loose;
- neutral or slightly acidic;
- fertile;
- fertilized with organic mixtures.
The planting hole for the Boeing rose must be filled with a nutrient mixture of peat, sand and manure.
Growing and care
Caring for a hybrid tea rose of the Boeing variety does not differ in complex agricultural technology:
- moderate watering no more than once a week (at the rate of 10 liters of water per bush);
- loosening the soil around the bushes 1-2 days after watering;
- weeding around the bushes to prevent the development of fungal and bacterial diseases;
- regular fertilizing with organic and complex mineral fertilizers for flowering plants (about six times per season);
- annual sanitary pruning (removal of dry, wilted leaves, stems, buds);
- pruning to form a bush;
- preparation for winter (pruning shoots to the base with buds, sprinkling with earth, leaves, covering with polyethylene, agrofibre).

Pests and diseases
White rose Boeing is characterized by an average degree of resistance to the effects of certain pathogens. The following diseases can affect the culture:
- Root mold can occur on plants as a result of heavy or frequent watering. The reasons for the appearance of a pathogenic fungus are improper winter cover of ornamental crops, low temperatures with abundant watering. The tone of the plaque on the root zone of Boeing litter can vary from white to various shades of gray, which depends on the different stages of development of the fungus.
Drugs such as Alirin and Fitosporin are effective in combating root mold fungi.
- Gray rot (the causative agent is the Botrytis fungus) provokes the appearance of unaesthetic gray spots on the foliage and buds of the Boeing rose. The parasitic pathogen infects the upper part of the plants and gradually moves down. The fungus is transmitted by birds, insects, wind, and precipitation. Gray rot is activated by high humidity (fog, morning dew), cool weather or temperature changes.
If a fungal disease, gray mold, is detected, it is necessary to use Fundazol, Benorad, Benomyl
- Powdery mildew - a dangerous fungal disease that can cause the death of a bush. It appears as a white, powdery coating on the foliage. The fungus Sphaeroteca pannosa provokes the development. Powdery mildew is activated in hot weather, high humidity, and excessive nitrogen fertilizers in the soil.
To prevent and treat powdery mildew on Boeing roses, you should use Topaz, Skor, Baktofit
- Necrosis bark on Boeing roses appears as a change in the natural color of the bark, and dark growths or spots appear on the shoots. The affected areas begin to crack and rapidly die. The shoots lose their decorative appearance. The causes of the disease may be increased soil and air humidity, excess nitrogen or lack of potassium.
To treat bark necrosis on Boeing roses, drugs such as Fundazol, Fitosporin-M, Abiga-Pik, HOM, Bordeaux mixture, and copper sulfate are used.
- Aphid is a well-known sucking pest that feeds on plant sap. It multiplies rapidly. In the process of life, it releases a sweet substance, which is an ideal environment for the proliferation of pathogenic fungi and bacteria.
To combat aphids on Boeing roses, you can use traditional methods (decoction of wormwood, tomato tops, tobacco)
- Spider mites - arachnid insects that settle in rose bushes in dry, hot weather. During the growing season, the pest manifests itself by the formation of light spots on the leaves.
To combat spider mites on the Boeing rose, colloidal sulfur and the preparations Fufanon and Iskra-M are used
- Golden bronze popularly called the "May bug". During the period of budding and flowering, they eat tender petals and young shoots. Rose bushes lose their decorative appeal. Pests can be collected by hand or cultivated near the plants, since the golden bronze worm hides in the soil at night.
To combat golden bronze in the evening, the ground near the plants is filled with Prestige, Medvetox, Diazinon.
- Roseate sawflies feed on young shoots and foliage of roses.Insects penetrate the inside of the branch, after which the ornamental crop begins to wither and die.
The most effective drugs in the fight against roseate sawfly are Actellik, Inta-Vir, and Antara.
