Roses are a perennial favourite with the gardeners and onlookers alike.
There is hardly any other species of flowers available with such varied
shades and types. The public enthusiasm for roses initiates growers to
experiment with different available varieties, finding new ones, their
growing process, and location for growth.

.

One of the popular methods is growing the flowers indoors. It is not
difficult and through relevant knowledge, it is possible to fill up your
house with these fragrant blossoms. Very few people know that roses can be
indoor houseplants too. It all depends on how you are growing roses.

.

Here are the various steps involved in growing roses as indoor
houseplants.

.

Planting

.

Roses The very first step for growing roses as indoor houseplants is the
planting process. A four to eight inch pot containing drainage holes is
ideal. Plant roses in the layer of peat soil inside the pot. This soil
variety is ideal since it does not retain water for long. Place the rose
pot on a tray with pebbles and fill this with water. Evaporating water
from the tray provides enough moisture for the plant to survive.

.

Watering/fertilization

.

Based on the water retaining capacity of the soil in the pot you may need
to water it daily or on alternate days. Once blooming stops, keeping it
dry for some time in between watering does not hurt. Fertilization mainly
consists of water-soluble varieties on a monthly basis. This keeps your
indoor houseplant healthy and facilitates the growing of roses.
