Part two of growing organic roses! Tips 1-3 were shared in my last post. Check them out here.

Tip 4. Create a happy biome for your roses:



This concept is something that takes time, and I am constantly learning new tricks! But here’s the gist: your roses will be happier when nature is happy all around them.

For example, destructive bugs are less of a problem when their predators are around and there are plenty of happy birds attracted to keep them under control.
.
One example of this would be, keep a birdbath nearby, which will attract birds, which will eat the bugs that eat your roses.

Or, do some research on partner plantings so that you can deter certain insects without spraying.

Or, don’t be so quick to wipe that spider web off of your roses. He may be eating the bad guys.

There are entire books written on this topic, so this tip is just meant to introduce you to the concept. I have also learned a lot on this from YouTube videos. Books or magazines on organic gardening are your friends – they will guide you in creating a balanced biome for your plants!

Tip 5. Your roses don’t have to be perfect!


This tip is simply meant to remind you that, nature is at its most beautiful when it is not sterile or manufactured. So, if your rose leaves do not look flawless, that actually adds to the charm.

Spraying chemicals for perfect roses is unnecessary! Let your roses be real and gorgeous, just like you. YES!

Speaking of sprays…
Don’t miss my top-secret Rose treatment COMPLETELY natural spray recipe from my last post. It is completely organic and will help so much with bugs and disease.

Use in the evening, and only as needed, of course! Using it “as needed” will help keep a happy organic biome.


Organic roses are possible! Head into it with determination. The beauty is worth it!!!

So tell me…. are you going to attempt organic roses?
