How to Take Care of a Kordana Rose

You may not be familiar with the name Cordan Rose, but you may have come across a few without realizing it. The vast majority of miniature roses sold in flower shops are actually Kordana varieties – if you got even a small pot of roses, it was probably a Kordana rose. These pink roses are cheap, cheerful and relatively easy to grow. Their only drawback is that they have no discernible smell. If you are a new owner of this beautiful little plant but have no idea what to do next, here is everything you need to know about Cordana rose care.

Select straight stitch

The first thing to do with a Kordana rose? Find the right place to grow. As the evergreen seeds note, Kordana roses need about 6 hours of sunlight a day. Without the right amount of sunlight, the Kordana rose will never reach its full potential. Whether you grow them indoors or outdoors really depends on where you live. If you live in USDA zones 5-9, you can grow it as a perennial in a light outdoor location with well-fertilized soil and plenty of direct sunlight. If you live in another region, you can grow them indoors or alternate between indoor and outdoor depending on the season. If you decide to go this route, be sure to acclimate the rose to the outdoors each summer by moving it from shade to sun for the first few weeks. If you are growing your Kordana indoors, follow Hunker’s advice and place it near a south or west facing window. To ensure that all sides of the plant receive good direct sunlight, rotate the pot several times a week. Although Kordana roses need plenty of direct sunlight, high temperatures from artificial sources should be avoided, as well as extreme temperature fluctuations. To prevent the rose from wilting and burning, keep it away from heating and cooling vents.

Keep it wet

One of the most important things to do if you want your Cordana rose to thrive is watering. As The Spruce explains, most greenhouse soils are designed for continuous drip irrigation. Without a constant supply of fresh water, you run the risk of becoming dehydrated. Keep in mind that standing water or oversaturated soil can quickly kill even the most hardy roses. To keep the rose bush evenly moist, check the soil surface daily. If it is dry, you need to add some water. If the rose is grown in the open air, you can take it easy on deep watering. If planted in pots, water the soil to drain excess water from the drainage holes. If you live in a very dry climate, keeping soil moisture constant can be a problem. Fortunately, there are many ways around this problem. Ask your florist or nursery about moisture-retaining crystals. They have many names (Superabsorber, Soil Moist, Hydrogel, Moisture Mizer, Water Absorbent Crystal, Broadleaf P4, TerraSorb, Hydrosource, Watersave, Water Crystals….. the list goes on and on), but they all have the same important function: keeping the soil evenly moist. To use it, make a few holes in the ground with a pencil and place a few crystals in each hole.

Don’t forget to fertilise

To ensure that your Kordana rose is well nourished and healthy, don’t skimp on fertilizer. Ideally, the soil should be well fertilized before planting the rose. If not, you can make up for lost time by applying a rosewood fertilizer once or twice a month (or once every two or three months if you use a slow release fertilizer). The ideal time to start fertilizing your rose bush is when it has about 10 to 15 inches of new growth with about 5 to 7 leaves per stem. If you are growing a rose in the garden, apply the fertilizer about 2 weeks after the last frost and stop applying about 8 weeks before the first frost. Regardless of the brand you use, make sure the fertilizer contains nitrogen (which stimulates root and stem growth), phosphorus (which promotes nutrient uptake) and potassium (which protects against disease). When you apply the fertilizer, make sure it is spread evenly over the base of the plant. Water the rose bush immediately after application so that the nutrients are absorbed into the soil.

Congestion management

Kordana roses are naturally small, so you don’t usually have to worry about pruning. However, you should let the flowers wilt as soon as they start to wilt so that new ones can grow in their place. To avoid damaging the plant, cut the stem with pruning shears just above the top leaves. If you see yellowing leaves or dead or dying spots, cut them off with pruning shears.

Beware of pests

Like most plants, cordana is susceptible to certain pests and diseases. The good news is that they are more resistant to attack than many other roses. But that doesn’t mean you can afford to lose sight of your goal. The most common diseases that Kordana roses cause in the home are mold, aphids and spider mites. Spider mites discolor the rose petals and can leave a trail of cobwebs. The fungus appears as a grey powdery substance on the leaves, which eventually turn yellow. Aphid infestations can be recognized by curled, sticky, discolored leaves that may be brown or covered with white spots, and misshapen flower buds. Infestation usually occurs in early spring and summer. Aphids can be controlled with biological methods and chemical insecticides. If you use a chemical, carefully follow the directions on the label. Spider mites can be controlled by spraying the rose with water and treating it several times with insecticidal soap over the course of a week. Powdery mildew can be prevented by avoiding excessive watering and fertilizing. If this happens, rinse the dandruff and let it dry. Before replacing the unit, clean the area where it normally sits to remove any mold.

frequently asked questions

Can a Cordana rose be planted outside?

This miniature rose is perfect for indoor pots, on the patio or deck. Kordana roses can be planted outdoors in the USDA hardiness zone 6-9 to add color and atmosphere to borders, flowerbeds, rock gardens and edgings. The rose needs well-drained soil and at least six hours of sunlight a day.

How to take care of the Cordana rosea plant?

To keep your miniature roses healthy, keep the soil moist but not wet, give them a cool, light growing place and remove affected leaves. Cut the flowers when they have finished flowering. Ensure that the installation is carried out in an area with good air circulation.

How big are Cordan roses?

Kordana roses range from very small, 6.5 cm high, to about 36 cm. These roses were designed for pots, so in terms of rose types, they are quite small.
