The experiments on cultivation of two chosen ground cover roses cultivars: Meiflopan and Meidomonac, were carried out in the years 2003-2004. Plants were planted into two separate quarters, half of which was mulched with 10 cm layer of pine bark. Mulching was carried out only in the first year of cultivation. The length of all annual shoots and the diameter of 30 flowers chosen at random [cm] were measured and the numbers of shoots and inflorescences on all shrubs were recorded during vegetation period. Additionally, weeds were counted and identified on each experimental plot. Positive impact of mulching on the number and length of shoots in the second year of cultivation of roses shrubs was noted, and the decline in the number of weeds on the experimental plots and increasing of flowers diameter in inflorescences was observed
