- 🌹Learn how to bend climbing rose canes and secure them to the ground to triple the number of rose flowers you grow this year! Shirley Bovshow, a garden expert on the Hallmark Channel shows you how to make more flowers in a rose plant, step by step!
When you train a climbing rose to bend and cascade downwards, this gives rise to more lateral stems along the rose cane which are responsible for setting flowers!
This technique of training climbing rose canes to grow horizontally and in an arched shape is called "pegging roses." Pegged roses will produce double or triple the amount of rose flowers compared to a climbing rose that is trained to grow UP a trellis! Isn't this exciting! Pegged roses also have a beautiful fountain shape and take up less space in the garden.
Start training climbing rose plants when new growth emerges and select six to eight supple branches to begin your first pegging season. Prune any hard or diseased branches. Take your time creating your pegged rose support. You can increase the amount of pegged rose canes every year.

You always teach us the neatest garden tips. So beautiful being arched over. Thanks
My pleasure! Thanks for watching and sharing your feedback.
Wow what a great idea, roses multiply with this technique and the shapes that can be accomplished are beautiful! Thank you for this toturial Shirley! 🤗👏👏👏
Hi Paris18! My pleasure and thanks for watching! I appreciate your feedback.
@@EdenMakers do you have any advice on mister Lincoln's and coral knock out roses? I just bought a few different ones.
@@psychopete3848 those two are among my favorites! Mr Lincoln is a beautiful long stem hybrid tea rose abs I also have knockout roses. What specific question do you have about them?
@@EdenMakers basically how wide do they grow and how much sun do they need?
@@psychopete3848 Mr Lincoln can grow 6 feet tall. Knockout Roses about 5 feet tall and wide.Both roses need full sun- at least 6 hours per day.
That’s why you train it in the trellis to get that many blooms is just a diferent way what you are doing
YES, this is another way to train a rose. They can also grow upright although you will get maxi mum roses when the stem is bent.
Yes it’s a different way of training roses for maximum flowers
Great video - thanks for the info! Can some of the roses still grow vertically while you peg others? I definitely want lots of roses, but also would like vertical height as well. Can you achieve this same idea while actually getting the roses to climb up something?
Thanks for watching. Yes you can train some of the stems to grow vertically but you won't have the same level of flowering as the pegged stems. Bending the stem is what stimulates budding hormones along the nodes. When the stems are upright, the top leaves can shade lower leaves which does not cause optimal budding.
Wow.. thank you for sharing flower
My pleasure 🌸
Finally i found some one like to do what i like to do with my rose
Happy to hear you found my video helpful! Thanks for watching!
What is the grass / moss that you have under the rose bush in the wine barrel planter? I'd love to add something like that to mine! Thanks!
Thanks for watching and for your question. I used green preserved moss from the garden center. it is packaged in a bag and is also available at Joann's and Michaels.
What a great idea. Mine just look kind of boring right now with not many blooms
It's a great technique Joann. I hope you try it!
Very good idea. Thank you for your video❤!!
Thanks for watching and commenting!
And then what do you do before winter? Leave them pegged and then prune the following spring? Thank you!
Yes you can
Leave them
Pegged until spring
Wow this looks really great❤️
It's a great technique and you can make different shapes! More flowers too!
I shall do this with my Don Juan's. Just bought some for my new crib.
Don Juan should look really nice pegged to ground! Good luck
great tip! thank you!
My pleasure! Thanks for watching Leeci 🙂
If I have a 7-8 foot arch could I feasibly plant a 15ft climber on one side and tie it along the arch as the cane grows? This is really cool!
Hi Kim, Thanks for watching! Yes, it is feasible to plant a 15-foot climbing rose on one side of a 7-8 foot arch and train it along the arch as it grows.
Make sure the arch is sturdy enough to support the weight of the climbing rose as it matures. You might need to provide additional support or tie the canes to the arch to prevent them from bending or breaking.
As the rose grows, gently guide its canes along the arch to encourage them to follow the desired path. This may involve tying them with soft garden twine or using other suitable materials. Regularly check and adjust the ties as the plant develops.
Fantastic!! Thank you so much! I really appreciate it! ❤
@@Kim-FP5 Very welcome!
Nice
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Actually there is a hormone released in roses when they are bent which produces more blooms
Yes! Thank you for sharing that information! Do you have a rose garden?
Can this be done in the fall?
I have lots of long canes that go up to my second story balcony. I don’t know the variety as they were planted by previous owners… they planted a few different varieties in the front and back yard….I don’t know much about roses and this got me excited as the one along my front walkway has big thorns and has been unmanageable so I’ve chopped the unruly ones hanging in the walkway every summer. I tried to attach to a trellis upright and now I know why it hasn’t been very productive; mostly roses at the top in clusters.
Hi Tina, Yes, you can definitely bend and train climbing roses in the fall. In fact, fall is a good time for pruning and shaping roses, as they are going dormant or slowing down their growth. Here’s how you can approach it:
Assessing the Canes: Identify the long canes that you want to bend and train. These are typically the flexible, new growth canes that haven’t hardened yet.
Bending and Training: Choose a support structure such as a trellis, pergola, or wires along your balcony. Gently bend the canes horizontally along the support structure. You can secure them loosely with garden twine or soft ties.
Pruning: While bending, you can also prune the canes to remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches. Cut back the canes to promote a more compact and tidy appearance.
Securing for Winter: Make sure the canes are securely tied or fastened to withstand winter winds. This will help prevent damage to the canes and keep them in place until spring.
Spring Growth: In the spring, as the roses start growing again, monitor the canes and continue to train them horizontally if needed. This encourages more lateral growth and can lead to more blooms along the length of the canes.
Remember to wear gloves and protective clothing when working with roses, especially ones with big thorns. With proper training and care, your climbing roses should become more manageable and productive over time.

Thank you for taking the time to respond and for the clear concise instructions.
I bought a 2 pack of Queen Elizabeth bare root roses this past spring; 1 I planted in the ground and the other in a container. The in ground one I noticed tunnels going under it and I suspect a gopher or a mole…I’m worried about root damage although it seems to look fine. I have 4 dogs and a cat so those metal traps scare me. Have you had this issue?
I live in western Washington and the rainy season is starting, shorter days and colder nights.
@@tinaknutsen Dealing with pests like gophers or moles can indeed be tricky, especially when you have pets to consider. Here are a few suggestions that might help:
Protective Barriers: For the rose planted in the ground, you can try using gopher baskets or wire mesh around the root ball. This can help deter burrowing pests from reaching the roots. Make sure the barrier extends below ground level as well.
Raised Beds or Containers: For future plantings or for the rose already in a container, consider using raised beds or large pots. These can make it harder for pests to access the roots compared to in-ground plantings.
Natural Repellents: Some gardeners have had success with natural repellents like castor oil granules or garlic-based sprays. These can sometimes discourage moles or gophers from tunneling near your plants.
Companion Planting: Some plants are said to deter pests like moles and gophers. For example, daffodils and marigolds are sometimes planted around vulnerable plants for their reputed repellent effects.
Vibrating Stakes: There are products available that emit sonic vibrations or pulses into the ground, which can deter moles and gophers. These are pet-safe and can be effective in some situations.
Given your concerns about traps due to your pets, these alternative methods might be more suitable. Keep an eye on the health of your roses and monitor for any signs of root damage or stress. Early intervention is key to preventing serious issues with root damage, especially as the weather turns colder and wetter.
@@EdenMakers
Loving all your advice! I was doing a walk throughout all the beds and I definitely see signs of a rodent problem… no signs on the lawn yet. But I suspect they are eating my spring bulbs … possibly that is what is attracting the moles/gophers.
I am going to try all of your suggestions as I have extensive beds throughout front/back.
So if garlic based sprays work; would planting garlic be a companion plant?
@@tinaknutsen Yes, planting garlic near roses can help deter rodents. Garlic emits a strong scent that rodents often find unpleasant, which can discourage them from coming near your roses. This method is often used in gardening as a natural way to repel pests without resorting to chemical deterrents. Additionally, garlic has natural anti-fungal properties, which can benefit nearby plants like roses by helping to prevent fungal diseases.
Love this idea. Will be trying this on my roses. Thanks Shirley.
You are welcome! Thank you for watching!
Will it cause the roses to grow in a fuller appearance too? This is such a informative video. I’m glad I didn’t throw out my Cecile Bruner yet 😅
Hi Violet, Yes the canes will produce a lot more roses along the stem when they are splayed open!
Thanks for watching!
@@EdenMakers oh this is so awesome to know! Always love me a bushy look. Thank you lots for such a quick response❤️💐
@@feyrie you are welcome!
Watched this on Home and Garden. You always teach us the neatest garden tips. So beautiful being arched over. Thanks so much.
Thanks so much Fannie! I appreciate you supporting my TH-cam channel! I'm putting up new videos (non Home & Family ones) each week!
Awesome :) Can I try this on normal rose plants? Will this technique work on other climbers plants like mandeville?
Thank you for your question. Pegging a rose is unique to climbing and rambling roses. This will not work with Mandevilla vine Because it needs a support. It also has Twining tendrils that need something to attach to. Other types of roses what is meant as a technique for climbers and rambling roses to maximize blooms
If the rose tips root ,do you cut that section and relocate the new plant or keep on pegging that one
The purpose of rooting the bent stems is to shape the stem so pegging can contjnue
My climbing rose is 10 feet tall. The branches will not reach the ground, will it work if I only bent it down as far as a I can?
If you can’t bend it down so that the stem tip touches the ground, you can open the stems horizontally. Either down or across will encourage more flowers along the stem
This is a ridiculous show. Yes you can, if you bend your main stems between horizontal and 45 degree. You will get more blooms than what this show claims to get. Any stems coming from these main ones in early spring cut back to two buds. Guaranteed sucess
@@sydneygardener540 thanks for watching. I said the same thing as you did. I don’t understand the need for negativity. I am here to help
Is there a time of the year is best to do the pegging?
Early spring after last frost is a good time before rampant growth
This wouldn’t work for me because my soil has blight fungus spores in it and would make my rose bush sick to do that. I have to keep newspaper or mulch around my bushes so when it rains the blight spores don’t splash up on it. I guess I could tie string on the ends and stake the string to the ground over my soil barrier. Not sure why they actually need to go into the ground.
Thanks for watching. Yes, it sounds like you may not be a candidate for pegging roses because of the fungus you have in the soil. The purpose of pegging the tips of the rose canes to the ground is so that they will root there.
As far as training them by merely suspending the tips with the stake, that can work for encouraging more flowers
Oh! That makes sense. I rewatched your video and I think you mention that. Sorry! Yes, where I live bright is a big problems for everyone. It is swamp land with clay soil so very prone to blight for roses, tomatoes and certain other plants. I don’t like using chemical fungicide so I use barriers mostly. But love your video. It is very pretty.
Can I tie the ends to a rock instead of pegging them.
You can but it’s not good to crush the tips. When you peg the ends to ground they root there as well.
I have one flowers once never again
Hi, Thanks for watching. It sounds like you're describing a plant that bloomed only once and then didn't flower again. Some plants, particularly certain species of climbing flowers, have specific blooming cycles or conditions that need to be met for them to flower again. Factors like sunlight, pruning, feeding, and the plant's age can all influence its flowering pattern. If you're trying to encourage more blooms, understanding the specific needs of your plant and providing appropriate care could help.
Why are they shouting.
I am not sure why you are hearing shouting. It sounds fine on my end. Thanks for watching.
I know right she is shouting to seem more confident I guess, who knows
