Las Vegas, Photo By: Irene Hannestad. Spring is the time to begin thinking about the soil in your rose garden -- either renovating old soil in an existing garden or preparing for a new garden. The four main elements of good rose soil are inorganic materials, organic materials, water and air. The composition is best described as a loam.
Whether youre just a rose gardener or you have other types of plants in your garden as well, knowing your soil ph is very important. Soil that is too acidic can cause problems for your roses as well as soil that is too alkaline. In order to help you better understand how soil ph works, Ive covered some basics below. The ph scale ranges anywhere from 0-14, with 0 being the most acidic and 14 being the most alkaline. The middle number or 7 is considered neutral. Most plants like a somewhat acidic soil and generally need a ph between 5.5 and 7 for healthy growth. The best ph for roses is around 6.5, but anywhere between 5.5 and 7 is acceptable.
