Hello. So I was introduced to this person from facebook, who is growing roses in Bengal. He has specialized in growing roses in containers. I am attaching a specimen (a few outta hundreds) of pure beauty and marvel.

Thoughts?

such a large bush in small container. Marvelous.

That is one beautiful rose...

It is an incentive.

They are so much loaded with flowers,how stems sustain that much load.

this big plant would have root system alone to fill the pot. it must be alive on heavy chemical fertilizer doses.

What is the technique of growing these?? it is very impressive i must say...

astonishing

unbelievable........

Interestingly, the only chemicals used are fungicides and insecticides. Otherwise all fertilization and growing media are organic.
For growing media, they use a mix which depends heavily on coco-peat, and compost. Additives include all sorts of animal manures, oil cakes, tannery waste, compost tea and what not. Horse and Cow dung are also used in good amounts.
