This video just popped in my feed today and I know you posted it 11 months ago, but still, your content is so calmly soothing and factually correct. I am binge-watching it since I have discovered you and even though you live on the other side of Atlantic there is plenty that I am able to apply here, in my UK garden. On the other note this video has 11 months and it saddens me that the situation in UA is not getting better. My family is originally from the region of Lviv, but they have emigrated long time ago, but it still somehow feels very personal to me. Sending lots of warmth from here.
Thank you, dear Karolina, for your wonderful message! My family lives not far away from Lviv and my dad and mom are still there. I tell everyone that roses will be blooming in Ukraine one day, when this dreadful war is over.
Hello Olga, many thanks for your video, thoroughly enjoyed it. You are very good at explaining as you go. I am one of those people who looks forward to pruning with gusto and with so many DA roses I am not afraid to get stuck in and I enjoy it. Here in Ireland, we are keeping your beloved country in our hearts, thoughts and prayers. What wonderful, resilient people you are, a true inspiration. Thank you....Tina (Dublin, Ireland) ☘🙏🇺🇦 ❤
Thank you, dear Tina! Roses will be blooming in Ukraine one day! We are not even close to trimming season here in coastal Connecticut, 2 more months to go.
I love your videos Olga. You're so thorough in your knowledge of David Austin roses. I use your videos as a guide for my own rose garden. I'm so sorry for what's happening in Ukraine. They're in our daily prayers. 🌹Xx
Olga I have just discovered your TH-cam videos and have watched several so far. They are so very helpful and easy to understand. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience. This is my second spring with DA roses and I love them! Hoping to gain more knowledge from your videos. I pray daily for Ukraine, her people, and for her victory. I am Polish and some of my family members in Poland were sent to Siberia by Russia long ago. I am so sorry for what is happening. God bless.
Hi Arlene! Welcome to my channel! It is good to have you here! Yes, DA roses are my love as well. I am so looking forward to all the blooms this season. Thank you for your prayers, I feel that all this, including your family being sent to Siberia, is so senseless and cruel beyond understanding! And, the way Poland showed itself in this time of horror is marvelous, taking and helping all the refugees from Ukraine! Thank you!
Thank you Olga I am enjoying your educational videos on roses so much so that I ordered a whole heap of my first ever bare root roses! My heart goes out to Ukraine and all its people xo. Love from Australia
Well, hello to Australia from Connecticut, US! Enjoy your beautiful roses. My family is safe, but news are just horrible from there, my garden is one of the things which keep me at peace these days.
@@OlgaCarmody I am glad to hear your family are well. Just wanted to let you know, you have been one of the sources of inspiration for me with regard to renovating the garden and planting roses. Thank you for sharing your valuable experiences. I have a very long road ahead including a stressful day job but I am keen on rebuilding the gardens! You wouldn't believe it but I recorded my first ever video - boy do I need practice! huge Smiles xoxo
Olga! I have to say I received my David Austen roses Tuesday and I will plant them tomorrow (Saturday) as the weather has been terrible. I'm in Missouri, zone 6/7. I am so excited! I purchased 6 shrub roses and 2 climbers. I just love "visiting" with you, your rose tips have helped me greatly because you explain things so well. It's like spending time with a friend. I have been gardening for years, but have learned so much more about caring for roses since I found your channel. Thank you dear lady!
Thank you dear Kathleen! Wonderful to hear from you. Sorry for my late response, I am consumed by news from Ukraine. I didn’t receive any of my roses yet! Maybe this week…
@@OlgaCarmody No need for apologies, I can only imagine. Take the time when you need to, we'll be here for you. Just know I'm keeping you, your family and friends in my prayers. I appreciate your videos and replies. I hope your garden and videos offer you a distraction filled with hope that Spring and gardening bring. I know your roses will soon be there:).
Thank you Olga. I am just learning how to properly trim roses. I just ordered three bare root David Austin Roses. They are doing well. One already had small buds on them. I am learning so much from you. You are a wonderful teacher.❤️✝️🙏
Greetings from Germany! I just prunned my roses too and really looking forward for abundant blooms in June. Thank you for the update on your family. Our hearts are with Ukraine!
Thank you so much Olga. Have just discovered you channel, I have a Lady of Shallot rose , was not quite sure of the pruning,Thishas been excellent, especially as I have many David Austin roses
Hi Olga, thank you for posting this video. I am in Hartford, CT and just pruned my roses this week as well. I appreciate that you are in similar climate to me.
@@OlgaCarmody I planted roses last year for the first time. I have about 20 Knockout Roses. I ordered 4 David Austin roses from the 2022 catalog and am waiting for them. One is Lady of Shallot which I bought based on your youtube vidoes.
I am truly loving your videos, thank you for sharing your great knowledge that is helping me so much! I left a question or two about roses on another of your videos, and it’s great to find someone doing this, and about beloved David Austin roses!! You are not alone nor are all the Ukrainians and the people helping them as there are the many millions on the planet who are part of the world that absolutely does not tolerate breaking treaties and international laws against war crimes, post-WWII. Period. Putin will go to World Court or otherwise why does it exist? All of the members of the Allies, NATO, the UN, stand against this outrageous criminal level of destruction. Bless your heart, I cannot imagine how this affects you each day. It is very difficult to be witness to this level of complete destruction. There is evil walking the earth within the guise of a human being. Love and peace to you, keep doing this good work as it’s so well done. You are a natural!
How lovely! Wonderful message! Thank you again for all the good wishes. Yes, I am amazed how clearly hate and love battle in Ukraine. Usually war conflicts are controversial and both sides can be blamed to a degree. But in Ukraine,,,, how folks in Russia can support it, is beyond my understanding! Love to you!
Thank you for your update on your family. I received my Windermere David Austin Rose today. I was so excited. I did manage to order one more 2 days ago. I am looking forward to seeing them bloom this season. God bless and keep you and yours.
Thank you for an informative and inspirational video. Tomorrow I will prune my 2 David Austin roses. My thoughts are with the Ukrainian people and hoping that there will be peace again soon.
Thank you Olga! I have been inspired by your Lady of Shallot and recently planted a bare root one in my garden UK. Ps. My heart is breaking for Ukraine 💔 Iwona ( from Poland )
Thank you, Iwona, my heart is with my people too! Polish folks are so so wonderful to all the refugees from Ukraine right now, they really proved themselves in hard times! And you are growing Lady of Shallot, great!
Can you know USA have 40 bio labs in Ukraine. What is it for??? Their plan is to destroy entire Ukraine for their weapon industry to export becoz Afghan war is over. My hearty feelings for people of Ukraine. Becoz of worst leaders and their corruptions is going to destroy entire Ukraine.
I also just planted two Lady of Shallot on either side of an an arch. I live in California, so I planted last month. So pleased with the growth they've already put on!
Thank you for this video and prayers for you and your family. I’m confused about what to do with my roses. They were leafed out and beautiful and suddenly we had a night down to 15 degrees. I think they are ok but I don’t know whether to leave them for a while or go ahead and trim them.
Just leave your rose and wait for steady warm weather. And then you will be able to see what is dead and what can be saved. Each bud space can produce several shoots, so even if you have to rub off brown and damaged young leaves, canes can still perform well. I know, those pesky late frosts!
Thank you for prayers! Don’t worry, your rose will be fine, the most you can do is to make the shape of your rose awkward, which can be easily corrected later.
Hi Olga! Sorry for the bad news but I am happy to hear 😊 spring has arrived in your garden. I wanted to ask you about this shrub. I have 2 of these shrubs and they are about 6 months old since I planted them in the ground. They didn't come bare root. It came in the smaller pot, they looked like young plants. But I recently gave them a short hair cut because they grew big and very long. Long and skinny canes. And no buds, not one. I'm not sure if I was supposed to just let them be but I did cut them back. I got tired of seeing them looking like a crazy mess. I see lots of new shoots popping out now. How long before I can see any buds?? I live in Hawaii where it is warm and all my roses grow like crazy. I'm so excited to see a bud but no such luck yet..😓 Please don't tell me I have to wait a year.😩
Are you sure that the rose you have is not some sort of a climber? Unfortunately I don’t know your climate intimately well…If you have many shoots coming, that means they have to start blooming soon. I don’t think you need to wait another year. The nature of the rose is to produce blooms. Keep me posted. I am going to research your problem…
Olga, I went back to check my order history from David Austin to double check my order. I had ordered 2- 2quart Lady of shallot shrub roses. I needed to make sure it wasn't a climber😅. So I did go ahead and cut them back and now have a lot of new shoots emerging everywhere. I really hope this time it won't be just a bunch of long canes.😓 But, I hope you are feeling better, I know how frustrating it is when you plan to plant your roses and something comes up. But I have to lyk, I have a Desdemona as well, it came this past fall and I can't be more pleased. It keeps blooming non stop! and I currently have this long cane that shot up and I swear it has a whole cluster of buds on it! Her blooms are beautiful and fragrant. What an awesome plant!! You will love her..❤ Take care and get well soon!!
You gave me a good idea of how to trim my shrub next spring. Thanks. Sometimes, when you get into it, you forget to tell us what youre doing. But i got a better understanding I like the glue tip. What is dormant oil for?
You are welcome, Christine. Dormant oil is good to fight all sorts of pests. It is applied in late winter. Now the producers of this oil modified the quality of it, made it lighter and we can use it in more diluted form during growing season. It is sold sometimes as dormant and all season horticultural oil. Hope it helps.
@@OlgaCarmody thank you. Can dormant oil be used on any plant and trees? I have an infestation of flies on my arborvitae trees right now. And I need something quick.
Dear Olga, I enjoyed the video. You had asked for me to share a picture of rose winter protection. If I had an email site to send it to I would do that. Thanks Victoria Valois
@@OlgaCarmody thank you, I’m waiting for my roses to bounce back from a 15 degree night a couple of weeks ago. The branches looked so bad but I think they are ok.
New to the wonderful world of David Austin roses. Watched your video and learned a lot. I am also praying for Ukraine. One thing I wasn't clear on....when we saying "outfacing bud" what were you referring to? Were you snipping above or below the outfacing buds? Were you leaving or removing outfacing buds? Thank you.
If you trim the stem, rose will use the closest bud from the top of the stem to continue growing. And the direction of the bud will determine the direction of stem developing from it. Since we want our rose bush to have nice shape and air circulation, we usually don't trim near inward facing bud, meaning the bud which is growing from the side of the interior of the bush. Hope it helps.
I live in the north of England and we have had a mild winter, my Roald Dahl rose already has lots of leaves. Should I still prune it? By the way, the people of Ukraine are amazing at this terrible time. Thinking of you and your family. Also, I love your videos. Xxx
Hi Joanne, sorry for my late reply, I am consumed by news. Your rose is probably actively growing at this time. I would take just some growth and let rose be at this point. You should take out diseased and dead wood though.
I didn’t get my roses either! I heard that many folks in zone 7 got theirs, so we should get ours soon! Major pruning is in spring, smaller one in the fall to help rose with the wind.
Hi Olga, I wonder if you can help me out. I have a two year rose that I propogated from a very old (40 years old) shrub in my garden. The problem is that it only flowers once a year! I'm confused, because the parent plant routinely flowered from April to September. Have you got any ideas? By the way I'm in London, UK. Many thanks x
Hi Peter, I never heard of it. Maybe your rose is young and still can't produce big show of blooms? I am going to keep your problem in my head while reading different books on gardening, maybe I will come up with explanation. Thanks and sorry that I don't have the answer.
I know this is an old comment, but I’ve heard of this happening to certain roses that will revert back to a parent breed. One example is the New Dawn rose. It is typically a repeat bloomer, but you have to be careful while propagating it, because certain cuttings will revert back to its parent, Dr. W. Van Fleet, which is a once blooming rose. Hope this helps!
@@madeleined.9685 Hi Madeleine, thanks for your comment, however I've got good news. She flowered twice last year! It must have been that her roots weren't developed enough to begin with. Xx
Привет дорогая, я тоже Украинка, Киевлянка. Спасибо за поддержку тоже люблю заниматься садовыми работами. Теперь сад это переключение от плохих новостей.
@@OlgaCarmody thank you. I was worried as it was growing normal but with this extreme heat it was starting to dry out. I was about to move it to a pot to see if it helps.

Привет дорогая, я тоже Украинка, Киевлянка. Спасибо за поддержку тоже люблю заниматься садовыми работами. Теперь сад это переключение от плохих новостей.
My rose just dried. Not sure if its coming back to life. I put in a partially shady area. What should i do?
Your rose might just come back to life next spring. So wait and see.
@@OlgaCarmody thank you. I was worried as it was growing normal but with this extreme heat it was starting to dry out. I was about to move it to a pot to see if it helps.
