I can't count the number of roses I've had to treat for powdery mildew because of bad watering practices. Always water at the base like he said, don't ever let water sit on the leaves. If your sprinkler hits the leaves and you water in the evening or at night you're asking for a mildew infestation.
Depends on the varieties. A few years ago a new rose variety hit the market. It's called 'knockout' roses by the growers 'Star Roses and Plants'. A VERY disease resistant rose variety especially diseases common in the southern and southeast US like Powdery Mildew, Black Spot Disease, and Phytopthora Root Rot. I've had a variety in the ground at my home in North Carolina since they came out and these roses have survived 3 full years of hot humid and wet conditions and they've handled them with no issues whatsoever. It's incredible how clean the foliage looked. Even after our cold and wet winters here. It was so mild this winter that the roses didn't even drop their foliage and even after going through weeks on end of overcast and wet miserable rainy weather in the winter, come springtime the foliage still was spotless which really astounded me. I'm not getting paid to say these things im genuinely impressed at the disease resistance these roses are for my (and I assume your) climate. I think the way the growers were able to get such disease resistance is probably that they hybridized them with a native rose variety (like Rosa Virginiana or Rosa Carolina) which has that natural disease resistance from millions of years of evolution
During the hot days of summer is that really an issue? The logic is true, it is the same logic of don't water the grass before dark. However, think about this, does it not rain whenever it get's ready to? Can't we all have periods of rain for days, day and night occasionally and guess what grass still grows and roses grow taller wider and more beautiful!
12:10 pruning it in that way also helps ventilation and therefore makes them less exposed to fungal diseases. the rule is to prune leaving space in the center, with only branches going outwards
‼️Something that wasn't pointed out in this video which I wish it was‼️ is DO NOT PUT GRANULAR FERTILIZER ON ROSES THAT ARE IN CONTAINERS. This is per Heirloom Roses themselves. They really stress this to their audience. It's very important to only liquid fertilize your container roses. The granular fertilizer will be way too hot for the rose roots in a container because there is nowhere else for it to drain away from, thus killing the roots.
OMG 🤦♀️ I've already done this with my new bare root roses. I'm going to transfer them into the ground eventually but the area isn't ready yet. I hope they're not doomed
WOW omg! I wonder if this is what killed my rose a year ago, I had a mini rose in a big pot and I used granular fertilizer to try to help it and it died but I wondered if it was bc it was a crappy plant from the grocery store 😩😩
Nurseries normally add granular feed to potted roses, it's just a smaller dosage than for roses in the ground. Whether using fertiliser in solution or in granular form if you get the dosage wrong it will burn roots.
I'm on my second home with roses already established in the yard. I've been blown away by how hardy and drought-tolerant these plants are while providing tons of colorful and lovely smelling flowers. I used to think roses were fussy plants, but now know that once they're established, roses (at least the ones I've encountered) are absolutely bulletproof. The biggest challenge I've had is keeping them under control. So nice to have fresh cut, sweet smelling flowers to bring inside and no work needed besides keeping them in check. Give 'em a few years of TLC and then stand back!

Great question. Grafting is a faster way to mass produce roses that require less grow time to get them to market. Since it is two "older" plants basically attached together, it will be fuller faster. But it won't last as long as far as lifespan. Heirloom Roses only creates own-root roses because we truly believe roses thrive better and are more disease resistant when on their own roots AND this is the way nature intended roses to be grown. The less human interference, the better. Hope that helps!
Hmmm, I was under the impression (although what you say makes sense) that the root stock of a grafted rose was of a more hardier variety, thus making a less-hardy rose more winter hardy. Would you please explain why Americans don't seem to like our Canadian roses grafted on "multiflora" rootstock...and what exactly is multiflora?
2 years ago I decided I wanted a rose. I found a rose group on facebook and I asked for recommendations. I said i wanted a single-flowered rose in pale pink or white, something that could look a bit gangly and known for it vicious thorns, and something that makes great hips. I mentioned where I live and the type of weather I get. I got a great recommendation, found a rooted 6 inch twig online. It's now over 8 feet tall with some branches coming almost all the way back down to the ground. And this year it started blooming. And the bees and orb weavers love it. This may sound weird, but it's a trick my grandma swore by (and she had stunning roses in her garden), to get rid of either bacon greese or old frying oil, dig a hole about a foot down near the base of a rose bush and pour it down there. Once it sinks in, fill the hole back up and cover with a stepping stone to keep critters out. I don't know if it helps because I don't have other roses to compare it to, but it sure isn't hurting
I've had roses for years and once established they are fairly resilent! They do indeed thrive in full sun and have deep roots once established. I love them because they will bloom until it gets cold.
Excellent video! Once roses grab hold of you, they don’t let go. They’re incredibly modern-yet-classic, and very rewarding. Nothing else like it. Thanks for another good video on roses. The ones in your garden are clearly thriving with your work. 👏🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌹
I'm using velcro plant straps so easy to remove . My roses do not require dead heading. They continuesly sprout new blooms. Feed them with Organic Rose-Tone plant food once a month till September.
A great TH-cam rose channel is Fraser valley rose farm. And congrats on giving a pep talk on older and rare roses. They are dying out fast, but as so with growing!
I'm so thankful for this video. I can grow vegetables and fruit. Last year , we added knock-out rose's to our perimeter. We took planting instructions seriously but now what lol. I can say very happily they survived our winter and came back nice and green with a reddish color so they are healthy. Great timing for this video. You are much appreciated
Roses are a great trap plant like nasturtiums. Aphids will go after them long before anything else in your garden. It is the reason wineries plant them at the ends of grape rows!
I was taught to plant with the graft union above the ground so the scar is less vulnerable to rot. If you meticulously prune out any stem growth rising from below the union, the root stock won't have a chance to revert - the only top growth it can have is the grafted variety. That said, I once had a lovely rose that the rootstock died and all that was feeding the top growth was a single root that had grown down from above the union where the soil was touching it. I didn't even know there was a problem until someone bumped it one day and the whole plant fell over because the root stock had actually rotted out. Fortunately it took well from cuttings, as well as the original plant surviving being replanted.
Thank you! Ive been searching for information on roses for probably a year since I decided to give gardening a go and yours is the only channel to actually explain things so that a complete newbie like me can actually understand! This has helped so much! Love your climbing rose that is just gorgeous, I wonder how long did it take to grow that large?
Yessss the video I've been waiting for! I had to say goodbye to a very old rose this week, which was heartbreaking, but I can't wait to grow more in the future.
Here’s something our rose growers have observed here in central Florida-the darker green the foliage is on a particular rose the better disease resistance the rose has. We have to grow them on fortuniana rootstock here because of heavy nematode presence in our soils unless they want to keep their roses in pots forever. A lot of local gardeners grow marigolds and turn them into the beds every season as well as adding crabmeal into their soil for the chitin in the shells to reduce nematode presence in the soil. I’ve also had growers use the three types of beneficial nematodes from Arbico Organics in their home gardens as well to try to get rid of them.
I have purchased several roses from Heirloom. They are good roses but for the prices, TINY. If you are looking for David Austin's, I would specifically order from them since they send you, for a cheaper price, very well established 2 to 4 year old roses in bare root. Jackson Perkins also will send you older roses that are in pots for a cheaper price. I order from Heirloom if they are the only ones that carry that specific rose. Just like grafted fruit trees, they say in the winter cold days/nights, to mulch up the grafted area to help them from the cold. the rootstock lives because it's in the ground out of the cold, while the graft area is in the elements. Texas A&M teaches you to mulch up and cover the graft area to help the grafted plant alive. That's what we do with our grafted citrus plants along with our roses. When the cold is over, uncover the area so it doesn't rot.
I have a rugosa from Heirloom Roses that has taken over a problematic area in my garden…exactly what I wanted! I really don’t mess with it, it’s very self sufficient. And extra perk-it’s too spiny for even the deer to bother it! The scent is wonderful too. I also have a small Rosa glauca can hope it’s going to thrive.
Good intro to roses. A little more about pruning and late maintenance- would help. People don’t seem to realize that roses need good air circulation. Less of a probe, for you becuase your weather is not and dry. But in humid climates I’ve noticed that people don’t cut back stems all the way so that there is space for air - and that causes diseases of all kinds.
I got 7 roses from HR and they are absolutely taking off. They've only been in the ground maybe 2 or 3 weeks. One even has a bud already. Loving my roses!
Cecile brunner will tolerate some shade very well. It’s a polyantha. The hybrid musks can do really well in part shade too. It’s your hybrid teas that really want all that sun.
Agreed, I have a dwarf polyantha called "The Fairy" and it blooms like crazy, even though it gets some shade under my hydrangea in the afternoons. Produces mounds of tiny pale pink roses that look incredibly delicate, but the rosebush itself is super hardy. Last year the entire bush got snapped off right at the base when a couple of rampaging squirrels decided to have a battle royale in my flower garden, but this spring it appeared again with beautiful healthy shoots like nothing had happened. I was so relieved!
I’ve bought from heirloom roses from the past. Gorgeous roses but pricy. They’re gorgeous and every year gives me bigger blooms. My favorites are the double delight and anything orange. TFS as always Kevin
That's a benefit of own-root roses! Bigger, stronger blooms and strong canes since they can focus on creating basal breaks to make the plant fuller and more shapely. You made a wise investment in your garden! Have you tried Louise Clements? She's a stunning orange color with beautiful shape.
Thank you so much for this video! I just bought an Heirloom rose (Jasmine Climbing) about 2 weeks ago and planted it in a prized all-sun part of my tiny urban backyard/garden. Wow! Jasmine is really taking off! Perhaps a little weird, but having a rose is a bit like having a pet -- training and watching and feeling a bit of pride in the process. I am enjoying all of it!
Thanks for the great pruning roses videos from the past. Pruning to an outward facing bud was the game changer advice for me. I pruned my rose last season properly and I never saw it bloom so much. I always thought it wasn’t getting enough sun but it was improper pruning and fertilization was needed. I’m on the hunt for purple colored roses. I got plum perfect from heirloom. I also have ebb tide. I love that South Africa rose.
Thank you so much for a really great video on roses. I started growing them about 25 years ago. I didn't know I would like them either. But now I am addicted. Yes addicted. I probably have close to 50 of them. Even though I don't do everything correctly for them, they bloom their little hearts out all season long.❤
I live in SoCal, some of my roses that I planted about 12 years ago are like 8 feet wide and tall! So it kinda depends on the rose and where you live. But sometimes they can get super huge! I absolutely love my roses. I don't have to do that much for them now that they are established. I find that once I get past the first couple years, after that they are quite drought tolerant to some degree because they have deep roots. 90% of my roses are own-root roses. I actually have La France in my yard! Very few of my roses are the typical Hybrid Teas actually,... In general I pick roses that are 1- heat tolerant, 2 - reblooming, 3 - fragrant, 4- have a bloom/petal pattern I like. I prefer complex blooms usually. I even get blooms in December sometimes. I dont even bother pruning them that much other than removing overgrown, crossing or damaged branches. I fertilize maybe a couple times of year with things like fish emulsion, etc... and that's really it! Huge return for very little effort. I feel like peoples' impression of roses is highly manicured hybrid teas of a particular type. But there are so many other kinds of habits and roses. you don't have to be limited to just a heavily pruned hybrid tea. I also plant reblooming irises among the roses. That should be what you add next! Irises! Descanso Gardens near Pasadena has some really beautiful displays of interplanted plants with roses like catmint, yarrow, borage, dusty miller, salvia, calendula, geranium, nasturtium, snap dragons, sweet peas, etc!
Hi ! I live in SoCal too and I was wondering if you have had to deal with powdery mildew or rust? I recently started taking care of my roses (we have had them for about 6-10 years) and noticed a few issues. I went to a nursery and mentioned I was watering them 3 times a week and they said that might be something I would want to stop. I have a couple queen Elizabeth rose bushes and a few burgundy iceberg bushes. I am trying to look things up myself but it can be confusing because things seem to contradict. Your post gave me some hope that maybe I can save and get my roses healthier.
@@forellana88 I dont really have those problems but I would talk to your local nursery about it like you are! You can try to treat for those problems if that's what you're having.
45degree cut has become redundant, but if you have a older or sickly plant you want to reduce the risk pest or climate damage, after many rose prunes Cutting 45 and letting the face show the sun to dry out quicker has healed much success. Also looks neat if all pruning is done in the same direction. Great vid Kevin! We need roses and flowers in and around the veg garden to boost bee and insect diversity.❤
Oh Kevin, I've always grown roses since I bought my first home in 2014. I grow mines in a mix of compost and soil. Also I never spray on top but towards the soil. The only time I will do top is if I'm blasting spider mites or aphids.
This article certainly paints a rosy picture of growing roses. In dry climates and areas with lots of pollution, they are much easier than in other areas, because those conditions tend to keep black spot and rust in check. Roses can also get virus disease, which permanently weakens affected plants, and then there is the matter of replant disease. So while I liked this video I think the importance of selecting varieties that both thrive and are disease resistant in your area wasn't stressed enough. A lot of people are constantly spraying their roses with fungicides to keep them healthy, but it's not only a losing game in the long run but also harmful to many creatures. So maybe a follow up on these topics would be a good idea.
I live in San Diego and have 2 roses that the previous owners planted. They give off a good amount of blooms but always seem to have rust on their leaves. I prune the affected leaves, thin them out to encourage air flow, and only water at the base but it keeps coming back.
I put all my spent petals in my potted plants. They dry quickly and I crumble them up. Acts as both a water retaining mulch and decays into soil nicely. Never seen it suggested, but my plants love it.
You should have mentioned cleaning your pruners and snips before using them on a rose AND between rose types, sometimes even between branches if you already have disease. I live in the middle of the UK and we are quite moist all year round, this can cause fungal issues with roses in particular. Get a jug or something filled with a diluted anti fungal/antibacterial and just dip the snips in the jug after every cut or so, give em a wipe with a clean cloth and keep on trimming.
Nice video. I’ve grown plants all my life but only recently started growing roses. I’m rather obsessed. A whole world of varieties and colors. Definitely takes some learning. Especially here in very hot and humid SE Texas.
Thanks for this video. I ordered two roses from Heirloom Roses and should have them in about two weeks. So exciting. 🌹🤞 I'm going to use containers so I'm watching as many videos as I can.
rose petals tea only if you're not spraying the plant. We use the green rose for haku leis. I used to plant my roses by the street lights. I know it worked for me because when he had a blackout, parts of it were eaten.
The previous owner of my home planted a couple of rose plants in a tiny shaded corner. Literally the worst possible place on the property. It hasn't been pruned in years, was barely getting light or water, and definitely no fertilizer. Soon, I'm going to try and transplant them out into the sun and see if they take off with a little extra care 🤞🤞🤞
I went to check if he linked his prunes because I've never had any that don't splinter the cane. They are $60 I usually spend about $9. I guess that explains it.
You and I started in roses about the same time. Yours are amazing! I’m struggling with some of mine bc of drought and they just don’t like our city water. I’m trying so hard to get a good flush of blooms this year. Rain, rain come my way.🌧️ ☔️ y’all, Florida is getting crispy!
Thanks for the interesting tutorial on roses! You chose a very prolific climbing rose. We have two of them, and they grow like weeds! It feels like they grow back overnight every time we prune them. The birds love to hide in them as well. We had a couple of Scrub Jays build a nest because the rose bush was so thick. They didn't like it when I hacked it back after their babies grew up and flew the coop, LOL! I am growing my very first David Austin rose, "Eustacia Vye," and cannot wait until the flowers are in full bloom. It is supposed to be very fragrant.🌹
@epicgarden I had 47 roses different variety, and part of the 47 roses, I had 15 climbing, one of the climbing had not produced any new growing but still have healthy roots, I'm crossing my fingers for it to grow next years, I've been deadhead my roses and seeing great improvements on the new grow, I'm having a hard time trimmings them too, since I want my climbing move forward, they're been giving me a tough time after I planted them, some was disturbed while I took them out of their tight containers, we lost some roots not going to lie, they're not happy with me for almost 4 weeks sad and yellow leaves, I had to cut off many yellow and new sprouts since they turned brown, I finally getting some new fresh grow now, thanks to your videos education about how to keeps them survive 😂, I appreciated it alots ❤
I have no idea what kind of roses I have. They were here when I bought my house. They look like basic big box store bushes. I have never watered them or anything. I have to cut them back every year though or else they get out of control!
How I got my roses Co worker: hey my neighbor is getting rid of his roses, I don't have space for them, you want them? Me: (never gave 2 craps about flowers before) sure I'll give 'em a whirl. Mounds up compost in a heap, stuffs roses in, been 3 years they're doing great and now I have planted a bunch of other flowering things around my property.
Once upon a time I had roses that lived beautifully through the North East in Winter. Now I have a few that look like thy have gone to seed or critters, bugs so forth. I keep trying though. Today I planted a beautiful Tea Rose in Cream Sickle orange and am babying it, lol. Fertilizer, water, mulch and bug spray because some of the leaves look chewed on. I planted it in full sun and am looking forward to using your tips on keeping it gorgeous. Thank you for all of your tips! I just subscribed. :) Hugs from One Happy Planter :), Dee
Also had roses up north. They don't seem to grow sk easy in the south. But I have started adding my coffee grounds and leftover coffee to the bases and they have remarkably improved!
I had a large rose garden in Washington state .. 50 plus plants … now I live in a small city plot .. just 14 but we get chili thrips in our buds bad … some more prone to them then others .. I will likely sacrifice two plants this year and replace with more thrip resistant roses … I am a Grammie and I love my roses ❤😂glenda
Thank you for this. I won a beautiful rose at a Proven Winners seminar at my local nursery. Having failed at the discounted $5 bare root roses in the past I’ve been nervous about this new addition. I did make sure to dig the hole as deep and as wide as the soil surface it had in the pot. That happened to be my biggest mistake with the bare root roses. I apparently buried the graft. I know I didn’t do that this time. I did have to wait a month before I put it outside so the blooms it had became cut flowers for my house. I’m nervous I cut the rose hips and stunted it.
I lol'd at the "granny plant" reference, that was 100% me too and now in my 30s they're one of my favourite plants - my philosophy used to be that if something wasn't edible or medicinal I wouldn't waste space growing it, and I think that was a negative reaction to all those ugly lawn-and-hedge gardens that are neither beautiful nor functional but still get called "ornamental". The older I've gotten, the more I've slowed down and started to appreciate that beauty (and fragrance) is just as useful to the soul as vegetables and herbs are to the body. They say people get more conservative as they get older, but at least IME they just become more likely to grow and appreciate roses
Kevin when you said to water close to the plant and fertilize also , on roses do there roots grow down or out ? Because if they grow out don’t we want to focus on the drip line of the plant😊this is when we need people like you ❤
There are deep roots and some shallow feeder roots. Classically you make a soil basin around the rose to water. That way you can fill that up and it will percolate down all around the base of the rose.
I always thought roses were super hard to grow but out of all the stuff I planted in our front yard when we moved into this house a few years ago the ONLY thing that survived my ADHD brain was the one rose bush I planted. 3 years on and it's still going fine. I literally never do anything to it. I don't water it, I don't fertilize it, I don't prune it, frankly I'm shocked it's alive but I must have picked a very hardy variety or something. So as impressed as I was with that one I went back to the nursery I got it from and bought another rose bush from them. I intended to plant it but never did. That was a year ago, it's still sitting in its original container on my front porch. Now granted, this one does not put out many blooms (my other one blooms like mad once the weather warms up) but it IS still alive...somehow...
The house we bought came with millions of roses.. literally like rose garden. Being with a toddler we were worried that she will hurt by running around so we moved everything around the borders.. it was very well installed roses so we're bit scared. But it survived without any watering just with some wood chips around the root. And I didn't touch it for two years. Now after two years I have cut to around 50cm from the ground. This season they are explosive. My experience from roses are don't do anything special. Also I find that the one in the partial shade gets more aphids which I let the natural predators to take care of. So lot of sun little to no care will let your roses to thrive.
Not to forget to mention I indeed tried to fertilize them with rose fertilizer I bought. But I found the aphids was so much that year.. and recalled some blogger mentioning that too much nitrogen and too much aphids. So I literally didn't do anything but it's very good this year.
Greeting's From Ireland, The only rose I have is a very old peony rose no thorn's great. Me and the thorny one's don't get along. My mother is eighty five and she has load's of the thorny one's and I dread when I have to weed them, there were time's when I thought I'd have to go to A&E. I'd rather be nailed to a cross than grow rose's in my garden.
'Cecile Brunner' is a rambler. In California, I saw them grow up an evergreen to over 30 feet. Ramblers don't like a hard prune. They will not bloom if pruned too hard; on the other hand, climbers, which may go to 12 or 15 feet (depending on the hybrid) but rarely more, will bloom even with a hard prune (even though it defeats the purpose of a climbing rose if you prune hard). People who want a good selection of own-root roses should (must) go to sellers of Old Garden Roses and older Hybrid Teas--and there are several online. In the category of Old Garden Roses are many varieties of rose: albas, gallicas, damasks, portlands, chinas, teas, noisettes, polyanthas, musks, mosses, etc. Each has its own shape, growth habits, bloom structure, etc. That's the trouble with accepting a sponsorship: You cannot tell your audience that there are MANY own-root roses out there that are sold by people OTHER THAN HEIRLOOM ROSES--and you get more value for your money. I wish Americans would stop taking the "I'm too dumb, you're too dumb" route. It was NEVER DONE by Baby Boomers. LEARN AND TEACH. Stop presenting mental laziness. It's unforgivable.
1:47 that rose hip, it is kind of a fruit. If you brew it like tea it can help you with kidney stone. It breaks it down and help you pass it. Persians do it all the time and my uncle drinks this because he gets kidney stone all the time. It tastes sour and delicious.
Mines are having black spots..I took all the ugly leaves off and threw them away and even trimmed my roses some. I then put some treatment in the soil that's suppose to treat that a a few other rose diseases etc ...But since then my roses are even more ugly.. I hope they pop back..
Roses are pretty resilient. You did the right thing to remove the black spotted leaves and clean up around the base of the plant. I would water them with some liquid fish fertilizer to help them bounce back and make sure you aren't watering too often. They don't like having "wet feet."
I could use some advice on roses. I'm in zone 9b subtropic and I can't tell if my roses like full sun. I've got two on the north and 2 on the south. The ones on the north have less sun, thick but few stems, and big flowers. The ones on the south - the one that's shaded until late spring all summer have thick stems and spreads, but rarely flowers, and the one that gets afternoon sun makes a lot of flowers but is extremely leggy with skinny stems.
I just transplanted a tiny rosebush in my yard. It hasn't started blooming yet. Should I prune any buds that emerge to encourage the plant to develop stem and leaf growth in the first year? Or should I allow it to bloom? Any advice is appreciated.
If you transplanted while the rose was dormant, you can let it bloom! The plant will naturally send more energy to the roots and push out smaller blooms this first growing season. Prune back in the late fall or late winter (depending on your zone) and she should bounce back next year... especially if she is own-root.
I love love love the arbor your rose are growing on Would you share what it is or where you purchased it To me it looks like a fencing of sorts that we put around our horses hay bales, trees? No? Either way it’s EPIC!😅
That’s climbing Cecile Brunner. It also comes in a shrub form. Climber puts on biggest show in April then a bit more in the fall. Shrub version has first bloom in may and continues throughout season. Since it blooms all summer, not quite as many blooms as the climber (that blooms “all at once”
Here In Maryland, nothing seems to survive the insects and fungus. Could you please recommend a Repeat Blooming Tea Rose that can survive North Easter hot and humid conditions?
i have about 5 rose bushes in the front of my house now im trying the black ones i got ill see how those go i should try doing that where the roses drape over the entrance to my house i got one rose bush that has yellow and other times red i just love the smell and this is coming from a Marine lol
Best way to avoid issues with grafted roses is to just not buy them. Buy own-root roses instead. Harder to find, but worth it! They can die all the way to the ground but come back from the roots. No more Dr Huey reverted roses! In my colder climate we lose grafted roses all the time. The last couple winters caused a lot of rose casualties. But own-roots came back as beautiful as ever!
I have six rose trees in pots that I would love to put in the ground along my walkway like little sentinels. It's a sunny spot except for the months of April May and June is that gonna cause a problem? They are miniature knock out roses and bloom almost all year
After a little more than 1/2 this video, & I am now thinking about taking out my rose plants for food. Wife doesn't like them in the house, so why do I keep them? I like your videos, informative, & fun. Maybe I can move some from the back yard - garden area - to the front - the do not tread on me area :-) or no parking...
Noissette is pronounced NWAH/ZET. French word referring to a choice morsel,(usually of meat). BTW I hate the taste of blue fish but they make excellent fertilizer for roses.
My problem is with the yellow or diseased leaves and what to do to prevent them. I pick them up, as I once learned, but over the course of the season, I will lose many leaves and end up with just a stock. Help with this would be great.
Hi Kevin - another great and informative video. Could you tell me how long should a bare root rose take to wake up and start flourishing? I've had 5 David Austin bare root roses since February and still nothing. I received three Rose trees from David Austin and they are going to town and I just purchased those last month? I'm from Tampa, FL where we are in zone 10a and its hot. We're already hitting the high 80s close to the 90s already. Not understanding why they are not growing. 😞Thank you so much!!
Oh no, that didn’t sound very promising at all. They should be awake within a couple of weeks. Since you said you had high temperatures already, have you been watering? Roses need a lot of water, but hate wet feet.
I NEED help.😂 I didn't see on the trusted channel. I can't figure out is it better to make your own soil or buy? I have only ever used Miracle-Gro Moisture Control and my plants have always survived I have over 800 plants but for composting I bought worms and Miracle-Gro has so many chemicals in it that I didn't realize and I couldn't use it for my intended purpose so my real question is would it be worth it or cost-effective to make your own soil versus buying the most organic stuff
Question not related to roses, but you got me thinking… I have 3 15yr old peony plants and I haven’t fertilized them once since I moved in 3yrs ago. AND I’m sure my aunt who live here prior hadn’t done it either. Should I fertilize them annually? And if so, with what?
7:40 Blue pigments are the hardest color to produce. Unless it has the potential to have a blue variety in nature, it's not possible. For animals, they use have to used metallic molecules to bend the light to make themselves seem blue.
If you're looking for a specific recommendation from Heirloom Roses, I'm partial to '4th of July' - Kevin
Have you tried growing "Tangles"?
Man, it's a very busy variety. Hundreds of blooms
I can't count the number of roses I've had to treat for powdery mildew because of bad watering practices. Always water at the base like he said, don't ever let water sit on the leaves. If your sprinkler hits the leaves and you water in the evening or at night you're asking for a mildew infestation.
Same. The rain needs to learn better watering methods.
Depends on the varieties. A few years ago a new rose variety hit the market. It's called 'knockout' roses by the growers 'Star Roses and Plants'. A VERY disease resistant rose variety especially diseases common in the southern and southeast US like Powdery Mildew, Black Spot Disease, and Phytopthora Root Rot. I've had a variety in the ground at my home in North Carolina since they came out and these roses have survived 3 full years of hot humid and wet conditions and they've handled them with no issues whatsoever. It's incredible how clean the foliage looked. Even after our cold and wet winters here. It was so mild this winter that the roses didn't even drop their foliage and even after going through weeks on end of overcast and wet miserable rainy weather in the winter, come springtime the foliage still was spotless which really astounded me. I'm not getting paid to say these things im genuinely impressed at the disease resistance these roses are for my (and I assume your) climate. I think the way the growers were able to get such disease resistance is probably that they hybridized them with a native rose variety (like Rosa Virginiana or Rosa Carolina) which has that natural disease resistance from millions of years of evolution
True
@MsMeI rain is different I've noticed...the problems I Haa and I'm having now is with roses in big ceramic containers.
During the hot days of summer is that really an issue? The logic is true, it is the same logic of don't water the grass before dark. However, think about this, does it not rain whenever it get's ready to? Can't we all have periods of rain for days, day and night occasionally and guess what grass still grows and roses grow taller wider and more beautiful!
Some of my roses are almost 35 years old. I learned about the 5 leave rule when I volunteered at Hershey Gardens in PA. 🌹
12:10 pruning it in that way also helps ventilation and therefore makes them less exposed to fungal diseases. the rule is to prune leaving space in the center, with only branches going outwards
‼️Something that wasn't pointed out in this video which I wish it was‼️ is DO NOT PUT GRANULAR FERTILIZER ON ROSES THAT ARE IN CONTAINERS. This is per Heirloom Roses themselves. They really stress this to their audience. It's very important to only liquid fertilize your container roses. The granular fertilizer will be way too hot for the rose roots in a container because there is nowhere else for it to drain away from, thus killing the roots.
I believe they also say not to use granular fertilizer the first year for in-ground roses.
True! We recommend only liquid fish fertilizer in the first year to help the roots grow strong and deep. Granular fertilizer can burn baby roots.
OMG 🤦♀️ I've already done this with my new bare root roses. I'm going to transfer them into the ground eventually but the area isn't ready yet. I hope they're not doomed
WOW omg! I wonder if this is what killed my rose a year ago, I had a mini rose in a big pot and I used granular fertilizer to try to help it and it died but I wondered if it was bc it was a crappy plant from the grocery store 😩😩
Nurseries normally add granular feed to potted roses, it's just a smaller dosage than for roses in the ground. Whether using fertiliser in solution or in granular form if you get the dosage wrong it will burn roots.
I'm on my second home with roses already established in the yard. I've been blown away by how hardy and drought-tolerant these plants are while providing tons of colorful and lovely smelling flowers. I used to think roses were fussy plants, but now know that once they're established, roses (at least the ones I've encountered) are absolutely bulletproof. The biggest challenge I've had is keeping them under control. So nice to have fresh cut, sweet smelling flowers to bring inside and no work needed besides keeping them in check. Give 'em a few years of TLC and then stand back!
Harvested some rosehips last year and I have a baby rose growing now! Such a proud rose parent now 🥹
It’s an old garden Celestial rose for all you nerds 🤓 curious to see if one of my hybrid teas pollinated her or what

I would love to see a video on grafted plants - what plants are commonly grafted, how to handle them, etc. and WHY grafting is done
Great question. Grafting is a faster way to mass produce roses that require less grow time to get them to market. Since it is two "older" plants basically attached together, it will be fuller faster. But it won't last as long as far as lifespan. Heirloom Roses only creates own-root roses because we truly believe roses thrive better and are more disease resistant when on their own roots AND this is the way nature intended roses to be grown. The less human interference, the better. Hope that helps!
Hmmm, I was under the impression (although what you say makes sense) that the root stock of a grafted rose was of a more hardier variety, thus making a less-hardy rose more winter hardy. Would you please explain why Americans don't seem to like our Canadian roses grafted on "multiflora" rootstock...and what exactly is multiflora?
@@deborahfournier7640 Please don't use multiflora rootstock for roses. They are noxious weeds, and do not belong in North America.
2 years ago I decided I wanted a rose. I found a rose group on facebook and I asked for recommendations. I said i wanted a single-flowered rose in pale pink or white, something that could look a bit gangly and known for it vicious thorns, and something that makes great hips. I mentioned where I live and the type of weather I get. I got a great recommendation, found a rooted 6 inch twig online. It's now over 8 feet tall with some branches coming almost all the way back down to the ground. And this year it started blooming. And the bees and orb weavers love it. This may sound weird, but it's a trick my grandma swore by (and she had stunning roses in her garden), to get rid of either bacon greese or old frying oil, dig a hole about a foot down near the base of a rose bush and pour it down there. Once it sinks in, fill the hole back up and cover with a stepping stone to keep critters out. I don't know if it helps because I don't have other roses to compare it to, but it sure isn't hurting
Which white rose is it?
@ZurgTal I'm pretty new to roses but it has to be either rosa canina or rosa rubiginosa.
I've had roses for years and once established they are fairly resilent! They do indeed thrive in full sun and have deep roots once established. I love them because they will bloom until it gets cold.
Excellent video! Once roses grab hold of you, they don’t let go. They’re incredibly modern-yet-classic, and very rewarding. Nothing else like it. Thanks for another good video on roses. The ones in your garden are clearly thriving with your work. 👏🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌹
I'm using velcro plant straps so easy to remove . My roses do not require dead heading. They continuesly sprout new blooms. Feed them with Organic Rose-Tone plant food once a month till September.
A great TH-cam rose channel is Fraser valley rose farm. And congrats on giving a pep talk on older and rare roses. They are dying out fast, but as so with growing!
I'm so thankful for this video. I can grow vegetables and fruit. Last year , we added knock-out rose's to our perimeter. We took planting instructions seriously but now what lol.
I can say very happily they survived our winter and came back nice and green with a reddish color so they are healthy. Great timing for this video. You are much appreciated
Roses are a great trap plant like nasturtiums. Aphids will go after them long before anything else in your garden. It is the reason wineries plant them at the ends of grape rows!
I was taught to plant with the graft union above the ground so the scar is less vulnerable to rot. If you meticulously prune out any stem growth rising from below the union, the root stock won't have a chance to revert - the only top growth it can have is the grafted variety.
That said, I once had a lovely rose that the rootstock died and all that was feeding the top growth was a single root that had grown down from above the union where the soil was touching it. I didn't even know there was a problem until someone bumped it one day and the whole plant fell over because the root stock had actually rotted out. Fortunately it took well from cuttings, as well as the original plant surviving being replanted.
Thank you! Ive been searching for information on roses for probably a year since I decided to give gardening a go and yours is the only channel to actually explain things so that a complete newbie like me can actually understand!
This has helped so much!
Love your climbing rose that is just gorgeous, I wonder how long did it take to grow that large?
Yessss the video I've been waiting for! I had to say goodbye to a very old rose this week, which was heartbreaking, but I can't wait to grow more in the future.
Here’s something our rose growers have observed here in central Florida-the darker green the foliage is on a particular rose the better disease resistance the rose has. We have to grow them on fortuniana rootstock here because of heavy nematode presence in our soils unless they want to keep their roses in pots forever. A lot of local gardeners grow marigolds and turn them into the beds every season as well as adding crabmeal into their soil for the chitin in the shells to reduce nematode presence in the soil. I’ve also had growers use the three types of beneficial nematodes from Arbico Organics in their home gardens as well to try to get rid of them.
I have purchased several roses from Heirloom. They are good roses but for the prices, TINY. If you are looking for David Austin's, I would specifically order from them since they send you, for a cheaper price, very well established 2 to 4 year old roses in bare root. Jackson Perkins also will send you older roses that are in pots for a cheaper price. I order from Heirloom if they are the only ones that carry that specific rose. Just like grafted fruit trees, they say in the winter cold days/nights, to mulch up the grafted area to help them from the cold. the rootstock lives because it's in the ground out of the cold, while the graft area is in the elements. Texas A&M teaches you to mulch up and cover the graft area to help the grafted plant alive. That's what we do with our grafted citrus plants along with our roses. When the cold is over, uncover the area so it doesn't rot.
I have a rugosa from Heirloom Roses that has taken over a problematic area in my garden…exactly what I wanted! I really don’t mess with it, it’s very self sufficient. And extra perk-it’s too spiny for even the deer to bother it! The scent is wonderful too. I also have a small Rosa glauca can hope it’s going to thrive.
Rugosas can have a mind of their own and love space to roam and grow. Good choice!
Good intro to roses. A little more about pruning and late maintenance- would help. People don’t seem to realize that roses need good air circulation. Less of a probe, for you becuase your weather is not and dry. But in humid climates I’ve noticed that people don’t cut back stems all the way so that there is space for air - and that causes diseases of all kinds.
Honestly, that’s for almost everything.
I got 7 roses from HR and they are absolutely taking off. They've only been in the ground maybe 2 or 3 weeks. One even has a bud already. Loving my roses!
What is HR?
@@Speakupok Heirloom Roses
Cecile brunner will tolerate some shade very well. It’s a polyantha. The hybrid musks can do really well in part shade too. It’s your hybrid teas that really want all that sun.
Agreed, I have a dwarf polyantha called "The Fairy" and it blooms like crazy, even though it gets some shade under my hydrangea in the afternoons. Produces mounds of tiny pale pink roses that look incredibly delicate, but the rosebush itself is super hardy. Last year the entire bush got snapped off right at the base when a couple of rampaging squirrels decided to have a battle royale in my flower garden, but this spring it appeared again with beautiful healthy shoots like nothing had happened. I was so relieved!
WOOOOOOWWWWWW I’ve grown everything but roses someone gave me one for my birthday. I want a walk-through path like you have that is so pretty.
I’ve bought from heirloom roses from the past. Gorgeous roses but pricy. They’re gorgeous and every year gives me bigger blooms. My favorites are the double delight and anything orange. TFS as always Kevin
That's a benefit of own-root roses! Bigger, stronger blooms and strong canes since they can focus on creating basal breaks to make the plant fuller and more shapely. You made a wise investment in your garden! Have you tried Louise Clements? She's a stunning orange color with beautiful shape.
@@robinheirloomroses3483
I’ll look for that one! Thx so much
Thank you so much for this video! I just bought an Heirloom rose (Jasmine Climbing) about 2 weeks ago and planted it in a prized all-sun part of my tiny urban backyard/garden. Wow! Jasmine is really taking off! Perhaps a little weird, but having a rose is a bit like having a pet -- training and watching and feeling a bit of pride in the process. I am enjoying all of it!
Thanks for the great pruning roses videos from the past. Pruning to an outward facing bud was the game changer advice for me. I pruned my rose last season properly and I never saw it bloom so much. I always thought it wasn’t getting enough sun but it was improper pruning and fertilization was needed. I’m on the hunt for purple colored roses. I got plum perfect from heirloom. I also have ebb tide. I love that South Africa rose.
Thank you so much for a really great video on roses. I started growing them about 25 years ago. I didn't know I would like them either. But now I am addicted. Yes addicted. I probably have close to 50 of them. Even though I don't do everything correctly for them, they bloom their little hearts out all season long.❤
I live in SoCal, some of my roses that I planted about 12 years ago are like 8 feet wide and tall! So it kinda depends on the rose and where you live. But sometimes they can get super huge! I absolutely love my roses. I don't have to do that much for them now that they are established. I find that once I get past the first couple years, after that they are quite drought tolerant to some degree because they have deep roots. 90% of my roses are own-root roses. I actually have La France in my yard! Very few of my roses are the typical Hybrid Teas actually,... In general I pick roses that are 1- heat tolerant, 2 - reblooming, 3 - fragrant, 4- have a bloom/petal pattern I like. I prefer complex blooms usually. I even get blooms in December sometimes. I dont even bother pruning them that much other than removing overgrown, crossing or damaged branches. I fertilize maybe a couple times of year with things like fish emulsion, etc... and that's really it! Huge return for very little effort. I feel like peoples' impression of roses is highly manicured hybrid teas of a particular type. But there are so many other kinds of habits and roses. you don't have to be limited to just a heavily pruned hybrid tea. I also plant reblooming irises among the roses. That should be what you add next! Irises! Descanso Gardens near Pasadena has some really beautiful displays of interplanted plants with roses like catmint, yarrow, borage, dusty miller, salvia, calendula, geranium, nasturtium, snap dragons, sweet peas, etc!
I love snap dragons and petunias with my roses.
Hi ! I live in SoCal too and I was wondering if you have had to deal with powdery mildew or rust? I recently started taking care of my roses (we have had them for about 6-10 years) and noticed a few issues. I went to a nursery and mentioned I was watering them 3 times a week and they said that might be something I would want to stop. I have a couple queen Elizabeth rose bushes and a few burgundy iceberg bushes. I am trying to look things up myself but it can be confusing because things seem to contradict. Your post gave me some hope that maybe I can save and get my roses healthier.
@@forellana88 I dont really have those problems but I would talk to your local nursery about it like you are! You can try to treat for those problems if that's what you're having.
45degree cut has become redundant, but if you have a older or sickly plant you want to reduce the risk pest or climate damage, after many rose prunes Cutting 45 and letting the face show the sun to dry out quicker has healed much success. Also looks neat if all pruning is done in the same direction.
Great vid Kevin! We need roses and flowers in and around the veg garden to boost bee and insect diversity.❤
Oh Kevin, I've always grown roses since I bought my first home in 2014. I grow mines in a mix of compost and soil. Also I never spray on top but towards the soil. The only time I will do top is if I'm blasting spider mites or aphids.
This article certainly paints a rosy picture of growing roses. In dry climates and areas with lots of pollution, they are much easier than in other areas, because those conditions tend to keep black spot and rust in check. Roses can also get virus disease, which permanently weakens affected plants, and then there is the matter of replant disease. So while I liked this video I think the importance of selecting varieties that both thrive and are disease resistant in your area wasn't stressed enough. A lot of people are constantly spraying their roses with fungicides to keep them healthy, but it's not only a losing game in the long run but also harmful to many creatures. So maybe a follow up on these topics would be a good idea.
I live in San Diego and have 2 roses that the previous owners planted. They give off a good amount of blooms but always seem to have rust on their leaves. I prune the affected leaves, thin them out to encourage air flow, and only water at the base but it keeps coming back.
I put all my spent petals in my potted plants. They dry quickly and I crumble them up. Acts as both a water retaining mulch and decays into soil nicely. Never seen it suggested, but my plants love it.
Invert for the right varieties it smells great, too.
You should have mentioned cleaning your pruners and snips before using them on a rose AND between rose types, sometimes even between branches if you already have disease. I live in the middle of the UK and we are quite moist all year round, this can cause fungal issues with roses in particular. Get a jug or something filled with a diluted anti fungal/antibacterial and just dip the snips in the jug after every cut or so, give em a wipe with a clean cloth and keep on trimming.
Nice video. I’ve grown plants all my life but only recently started growing roses. I’m rather obsessed. A whole world of varieties and colors. Definitely takes some learning. Especially here in very hot and humid SE Texas.
Thanks for this video. I ordered two roses from Heirloom Roses and should have them in about two weeks. So exciting. 🌹🤞 I'm going to use containers so I'm watching as many videos as I can.
Wonderful! Happy growing!
rose petals tea only if you're not spraying the plant. We use the green rose for haku leis. I used to plant my roses by the street lights. I know it worked for me because when he had a blackout, parts of it were eaten.
The previous owner of my home planted a couple of rose plants in a tiny shaded corner. Literally the worst possible place on the property. It hasn't been pruned in years, was barely getting light or water, and definitely no fertilizer.
Soon, I'm going to try and transplant them out into the sun and see if they take off with a little extra care 🤞🤞🤞
Sounds good! Kind of fond of Espoma's Rose Tone too. Contains Biotone Starter Fert.
I went to check if he linked his prunes because I've never had any that don't splinter the cane. They are $60 I usually spend about $9. I guess that explains it.
You and I started in roses about the same time. Yours are amazing! I’m struggling with some of mine bc of drought and they just don’t like our city water. I’m trying so hard to get a good flush of blooms this year. Rain, rain come my way.🌧️ ☔️ y’all, Florida is getting crispy!
thank you for this video, I am looking to relocate my mum 3 roses into pot. this has given me a lot of tips
Oh my word! Roses are amazing at the same time there are so many kinds....it makes my head spin lol
Thanks for the interesting tutorial on roses! You chose a very prolific climbing rose. We have two of them, and they grow like weeds! It feels like they grow back overnight every time we prune them. The birds love to hide in them as well. We had a couple of Scrub Jays build a nest because the rose bush was so thick. They didn't like it when I hacked it back after their babies grew up and flew the coop, LOL! I am growing my very first David Austin rose, "Eustacia Vye," and cannot wait until the flowers are in full bloom. It is supposed to be very fragrant.🌹
@epicgarden I had 47 roses different variety, and part of the 47 roses, I had 15 climbing, one of the climbing had not produced any new growing but still have healthy roots, I'm crossing my fingers for it to grow next years, I've been deadhead my roses and seeing great improvements on the new grow, I'm having a hard time trimmings them too, since I want my climbing move forward, they're been giving me a tough time after I planted them, some was disturbed while I took them out of their tight containers, we lost some roots not going to lie, they're not happy with me for almost 4 weeks sad and yellow leaves, I had to cut off many yellow and new sprouts since they turned brown, I finally getting some new fresh grow now, thanks to your videos education about how to keeps them survive 😂, I appreciated it alots ❤
I think own roots roses are the way to go! And in cold areas, think about Canadian roses. Lot of information in this short video.
I am planting my yard long beans today. I can't believe how prolific they were last year!
Love Heirloom Roses! 💗 I have Eden and Quick Silver and on their 1st year are giving me roses 🌹 . Love your video, always on point! Thank you!
Have had lots of roses over the years. Love them
I have no idea what kind of roses I have. They were here when I bought my house. They look like basic big box store bushes. I have never watered them or anything. I have to cut them back every year though or else they get out of control!
How I got my roses
Co worker: hey my neighbor is getting rid of his roses, I don't have space for them, you want them?
Me: (never gave 2 craps about flowers before) sure I'll give 'em a whirl.
Mounds up compost in a heap, stuffs roses in, been 3 years they're doing great and now I have planted a bunch of other flowering things around my property.
Now that's a success story! Way to go!
❤
Once upon a time I had roses that lived beautifully through the North East in Winter. Now I have a few that look like thy have gone to seed or critters, bugs so forth. I keep trying though. Today I planted a beautiful Tea Rose in Cream Sickle orange and am babying it, lol. Fertilizer, water, mulch and bug spray because some of the leaves look chewed on. I planted it in full sun and am looking forward to using your tips on keeping it gorgeous. Thank you for all of your tips! I just subscribed. :) Hugs from One Happy Planter :), Dee
Also had roses up north. They don't seem to grow sk easy in the south. But I have started adding my coffee grounds and leftover coffee to the bases and they have remarkably improved!
I had a large rose garden in Washington state .. 50 plus plants … now I live in a small city plot .. just 14 but we get chili thrips in our buds bad … some more prone to them then others .. I will likely sacrifice two plants this year and replace with more thrip resistant roses … I am a Grammie and I love my roses ❤😂glenda
Captain Jack’s Dead Bug will keep thrips under control.
Thank you for this. I won a beautiful rose at a Proven Winners seminar at my local nursery. Having failed at the discounted $5 bare root roses in the past I’ve been nervous about this new addition. I did make sure to dig the hole as deep and as wide as the soil surface it had in the pot. That happened to be my biggest mistake with the bare root roses. I apparently buried the graft. I know I didn’t do that this time. I did have to wait a month before I put it outside so the blooms it had became cut flowers for my house. I’m nervous I cut the rose hips and stunted it.
I lol'd at the "granny plant" reference, that was 100% me too and now in my 30s they're one of my favourite plants - my philosophy used to be that if something wasn't edible or medicinal I wouldn't waste space growing it, and I think that was a negative reaction to all those ugly lawn-and-hedge gardens that are neither beautiful nor functional but still get called "ornamental". The older I've gotten, the more I've slowed down and started to appreciate that beauty (and fragrance) is just as useful to the soul as vegetables and herbs are to the body.
They say people get more conservative as they get older, but at least IME they just become more likely to grow and appreciate roses
Roses can also be edible and medicinal as long as you don't spray them with chemicals. So they can totally be functional beyond beauty. ❤
Kevin when you said to water close to the plant and fertilize also , on roses do there roots grow down or out ? Because if they grow out don’t we want to focus on the drip line of the plant😊this is when we need people like you ❤
There are deep roots and some shallow feeder roots. Classically you make a soil basin around the rose to water. That way you can fill that up and it will percolate down all around the base of the rose.
I always thought roses were super hard to grow but out of all the stuff I planted in our front yard when we moved into this house a few years ago the ONLY thing that survived my ADHD brain was the one rose bush I planted. 3 years on and it's still going fine. I literally never do anything to it. I don't water it, I don't fertilize it, I don't prune it, frankly I'm shocked it's alive but I must have picked a very hardy variety or something. So as impressed as I was with that one I went back to the nursery I got it from and bought another rose bush from them. I intended to plant it but never did. That was a year ago, it's still sitting in its original container on my front porch. Now granted, this one does not put out many blooms (my other one blooms like mad once the weather warms up) but it IS still alive...somehow...
I bought our Judy Garland rose from Heirloom Roses. It smells like peaches 🍑 and is my favorite rose
Such a good choice!
The house we bought came with millions of roses.. literally like rose garden. Being with a toddler we were worried that she will hurt by running around so we moved everything around the borders.. it was very well installed roses so we're bit scared. But it survived without any watering just with some wood chips around the root. And I didn't touch it for two years. Now after two years I have cut to around 50cm from the ground. This season they are explosive. My experience from roses are don't do anything special. Also I find that the one in the partial shade gets more aphids which I let the natural predators to take care of. So lot of sun little to no care will let your roses to thrive.
Not to forget to mention I indeed tried to fertilize them with rose fertilizer I bought. But I found the aphids was so much that year.. and recalled some blogger mentioning that too much nitrogen and too much aphids. So I literally didn't do anything but it's very good this year.
Greeting's From Ireland, The only rose I have is a very old peony rose no thorn's great. Me and the thorny one's don't get along. My mother is eighty five and she has load's of the thorny one's and I dread when I have to weed them, there were time's when I thought I'd have to go to A&E.

'Cecile Brunner' is a rambler. In California, I saw them grow up an evergreen to over 30 feet. Ramblers don't like a hard prune. They will not bloom if pruned too hard; on the other hand, climbers, which may go to 12 or 15 feet (depending on the hybrid) but rarely more, will bloom even with a hard prune (even though it defeats the purpose of a climbing rose if you prune hard). People who want a good selection of own-root roses should (must) go to sellers of Old Garden Roses and older Hybrid Teas--and there are several online. In the category of Old Garden Roses are many varieties of rose: albas, gallicas, damasks, portlands, chinas, teas, noisettes, polyanthas, musks, mosses, etc. Each has its own shape, growth habits, bloom structure, etc. That's the trouble with accepting a sponsorship: You cannot tell your audience that there are MANY own-root roses out there that are sold by people OTHER THAN HEIRLOOM ROSES--and you get more value for your money. I wish Americans would stop taking the "I'm too dumb, you're too dumb" route. It was NEVER DONE by Baby Boomers. LEARN AND TEACH. Stop presenting mental laziness. It's unforgivable.
1:47 that rose hip, it is kind of a fruit. If you brew it like tea it can help you with kidney stone. It breaks it down and help you pass it. Persians do it all the time and my uncle drinks this because he gets kidney stone all the time.
It tastes sour and delicious.
I have a rosa rugosa bush in zone 5 (Canada). They are very hardy to say the least. It is my trap crop for japanese beetles
I’m so happy about this video!!! Love the explanations and suggestions you always give us ❤
Mines are having black spots..I took all the ugly leaves off and threw them away and even trimmed my roses some. I then put some treatment in the soil that's suppose to treat that a a few other rose diseases etc ...But since then my roses are even more ugly.. I hope they pop back..
Roses are pretty resilient. You did the right thing to remove the black spotted leaves and clean up around the base of the plant. I would water them with some liquid fish fertilizer to help them bounce back and make sure you aren't watering too often. They don't like having "wet feet."
I could use some advice on roses. I'm in zone 9b subtropic and I can't tell if my roses like full sun. I've got two on the north and 2 on the south. The ones on the north have less sun, thick but few stems, and big flowers. The ones on the south - the one that's shaded until late spring all summer have thick stems and spreads, but rarely flowers, and the one that gets afternoon sun makes a lot of flowers but is extremely leggy with skinny stems.
Great video, thank you. I have oved roses all my life and taken some courses in pruning and caring for them.
Great primer for new rosarians.
Roses& alliums (esp. garlic!) love growing together as companions 🌹💗
why oh why was i always told to ONLY water roses after the sun had gone down!! didn't realise it introdused bugs? never again!!
I just transplanted a tiny rosebush in my yard. It hasn't started blooming yet.
Should I prune any buds that emerge to encourage the plant to develop stem and leaf growth in the first year? Or should I allow it to bloom? Any advice is appreciated.
If you transplanted while the rose was dormant, you can let it bloom! The plant will naturally send more energy to the roots and push out smaller blooms this first growing season. Prune back in the late fall or late winter (depending on your zone) and she should bounce back next year... especially if she is own-root.
@@robinheirloomroses3483 Thank you, Robin!

Either way it’s EPIC!😅
That’s climbing Cecile Brunner. It also comes in a shrub form. Climber puts on biggest show in April then a bit more in the fall. Shrub version has first bloom in may and continues throughout season. Since it blooms all summer, not quite as many blooms as the climber (that blooms “all at once”

i have about 5 rose bushes in the front of my house now im trying the black ones i got ill see how those go i should try doing that where the roses drape over the entrance to my house i got one rose bush that has yellow and other times red i just love the smell and this is coming from a Marine lol
Best way to avoid issues with grafted roses is to just not buy them. Buy own-root roses instead. Harder to find, but worth it! They can die all the way to the ground but come back from the roots. No more Dr Huey reverted roses!
In my colder climate we lose grafted roses all the time. The last couple winters caused a lot of rose casualties. But own-roots came back as beautiful as ever!
We do love own-root roses for this very reason!
I have six rose trees in pots that I would love to put in the ground along my walkway like little sentinels. It's a sunny spot except for the months of April May and June is that gonna cause a problem?
They are miniature knock out roses and bloom almost all year
Shoutout to my mom for getting heirloom roses. I see we have the same taste
Fantastic rose video! Thank you!! I love the metal arches!
Thanks so much for the awsome video, Kevin! Roses are pretty hard to kill for me. But these tips will definlty help them thrive!! ❤❤❤
I see you flossing them fancy felco cutters. It's my dream to fool up on felco and Sneeboer tools❤
After a little more than 1/2 this video, & I am now thinking about taking out my rose plants for food. Wife doesn't like them in the house, so why do I keep them? I like your videos, informative, & fun. Maybe I can move some from the back yard - garden area - to the front - the do not tread on me area :-) or no parking...
Noissette is pronounced
NWAH/ZET. French word referring to a choice morsel,(usually of meat).
BTW I hate the taste of blue fish but they make excellent fertilizer for roses.
My problem is with the yellow or diseased leaves and what to do to prevent them. I pick them up, as I once learned, but over the course of the season, I will lose many leaves and end up with just a stock. Help with this would be great.
Can you share the information about the climbing rose arch that you have?
OMG English speaking!!! This is one of the few videos I can understand clearly!🥳
What about knock out rose bushes or double knock or rise bushes? Are they one time bloomers, or multiple bloomers, are they easy to grow in Florida??
Hi Kevin - another great and informative video. Could you tell me how long should a bare root rose take to wake up and start flourishing? I've had 5 David Austin bare root roses since February and still nothing. I received three Rose trees from David Austin and they are going to town and I just purchased those last month? I'm from Tampa, FL where we are in zone 10a and its hot. We're already hitting the high 80s close to the 90s already. Not understanding why they are not growing. 😞Thank you so much!!
Oh no, that didn’t sound very promising at all. They should be awake within a couple of weeks.
Since you said you had high temperatures already, have you been watering? Roses need a lot of water, but hate wet feet.
I NEED help.😂 I didn't see on the trusted channel. I can't figure out is it better to make your own soil or buy? I have only ever used Miracle-Gro Moisture Control and my plants have always survived I have over 800 plants but for composting I bought worms and Miracle-Gro has so many chemicals in it that I didn't realize and I couldn't use it for my intended purpose so my real question is would it be worth it or cost-effective to make your own soil versus buying the most organic stuff
Can’t wait for that “You’d be crazy not to grow this in May” video to drop!
Love this video. Can you do a similar video addressing how to prune citrus properly. Thank you. ❤❤❤
Great pruning tips. Thank you for the great tips. Love your channel.
Question not related to roses, but you got me thinking… I have 3 15yr old peony plants and I haven’t fertilized them once since I moved in 3yrs ago. AND I’m sure my aunt who live here prior hadn’t done it either. Should I fertilize them annually? And if so, with what?
Easy rule to follow: if they are healthy and producing good flowers, they don't need it.
7:40 Blue pigments are the hardest color to produce. Unless it has the potential to have a blue variety in nature, it's not possible. For animals, they use have to used metallic molecules to bend the light to make themselves seem blue.
Love this video! Will help me with my rose garden
Kevin,
A lot of great advice--thank you. 😊
I'm still learning roses, so the video's timely. I think roses are like the "gateway" plant to get into more flowers in the garden.
Cecile Brunner is beautiful as a climbing rose ❤
