- My guide to deadheading roses, and taking extreme measures to combat black spot mould and mildew
If your roses are succumbing to this summers dreadful combination of wet cold and warm sometimes it’s best if you have a mature plant to simply stop fighting it and prune the disease away
This technique can be carried out on Plants have been in the ground pots for over 24 months removing all of the back to one or two leaf notes from where it originated in this growing season
You must make sure that you remove all infected and fallen leaves at this stage. Give your plants a thoroughly good feed and keep on top of your watering.
over the coming weeks, you may stumble across lots of defoliated or pruned plants in garden and plant centres
These should be showing significant discounts and if you do make a purchase, make sure you quarantine the Plants away from your other roses when you get home for at least a month before planting
Do you have any questions regarding the subject? Don’t hesitate to leave me a comment below.

Did mine about half 6 this morning after night shift. Followed by a good drink.
I’m in UK 🇬🇧 I think I’m living in another dimension as it’s hot and sunny most of spring . I do have a south facing garden on south coast .
Have no black spot mold mildew. Have 40 DA roses . Some have other issues but not the ones above 👆🏽.
Generous Gardner is showing white roses .
Olivia Austin lime leaves with green veins
Might have over fertilised the hedge . 😢 Albrighton rambler went weird and had to major trim it .
Well done,I learn something new every time I watch your videos.Please keep up your excellent work.Thank you.
Thank you
Hello Ben😮 I can't believe you did that to the beautiful Eustacia 😅 I appreciate you willingness to show and expand our knowledge to be able to look after our roses so thank you. I have heard that some rose retailers do a "chop" to encourage a fresh and good show of blooms, but I had no idea that a summer prune was a thing, every day's a school day:)
I've only started in earnest last year to being so addicted to roses, so mine are all relatively young roses with the exception of a few.
I can’t believe that either, but as I said in the video I can’t show you when I do it and she will be absolutely fine. I’m back in flower in just a couple of weeks time.
Black spot is the worst here that i have ever seen. Even Queen of Sweden has it, and she has always been disease free. Good advise.
appreciate the dedication!!
That's an excellent video. I used your mulching advice earlier, and it really helped. I have only one now that could benefit from this..accept prior to this I would have tried it in winter!
Hi did the same to my roses as covered in black spot thanks
Excellent video Ben 🌹
Another great video, I have learned so much from watching your videos and you have given me some confidence with growing roses in the garden. I planted a few bare root roses this year but we had such unbelievable hot temperatures they have definitely been struggling. Thanks again for sharing such valuable information on rose gardening.
You’re most welcome with your new roses. Please keep up with the watering water them at the base deeply early in the morning out of the heat of the sun roses should realistically never be watered overnight as this caused lots of disease problems
Thank you so much BHA, this confirms my instincts. I already did this to one rose bush wondering if I wasn't crazy and was hesitant about doing it to a few more.
Well done I’m a great advocate of following your own path and finding what works for you never be afraid of trying anything as a gardener we’re all learning and the information I’m dispelling to you is not only a mixture of my 30 years in the trade blended with my formal qualificationBest of luck with your pruning
@@the_gardenerben Thank you! I've learned so much from you and have bought rose bushes following your reviews. I have found that THE MOST IMPORTANT PART of growing roses is to find the right place, the exact right place for each rose and every single one is different as to what it likes and what it can stand.
Really helpful video Ben thanks. Any advice for dealing with sawfly bugs - my roses have been hit really badly. I've practically defoliated a Scepter'd Isle and Princess Alexandra of Kent already. I don't really want to spray at this time of year but don't know how else to get rid of them. Any thoughts?
Hi Ben, thanks for such an enlightening video. I feed my roses with David Austin once a year feed in the spring. Can I still use the Envil feed fortnightly like you have or would that be too much for them. Thanks for all your great advice.
I really like how you support your roses- the wooden stakes, what is the purpose of the pot? Or it’s just there for decoration. I am asking because I would like to steal that idea :-) I really like the look, just not sure what the pot is for
I am dealing with a lot of black spot too here in North Carolina us
The particular tutorial you may want to watch it is actually posted to subscriber only based content on Instagram in North Carolina. You may really struggle to re-create this look as I don’t believe that you have Hazel growing and native to you.
Personally, I like to keep things relaxed and Plants don’t need a huge amount of support but I give them it anyway just as a sort of belt and britches type of affair here you can see a very basic way between three and four Hazel stick sunning around the pot tied together at the top and then decorated with a small terracotta pot which acts as the perfect location for beneficiary insects to hide in
@@the_gardenerben ah! That is very smart! We have similar posts just not made of hazel I don’t think but I saw them online. Thank you for responding!
Hi Gardener Ben, thank you for yet another great video. Alot learnt.
Can you advise on Crown Gall on roses please. I just discovered it on one of my potted Strawberry Hill which is on one side of an arch.
Will I definitely lose this plant? What is the best way to treat (it's a small section at the base of the rose).
Please help, I'm gutted 😢
Many thanks
Tina
Hi Ben, thank you for this. Sorry about your lovely Eustacia! Looking forward to seeing her grow back soon. What do I use to feed weekly with?
You use the product you feel comfortable with for me that’s seafeed extra from envii
Hi Ben - I've had a look on eBay for ARS Pruners, there's several different models, which ones specifically do you have. Thanks!
The ones in this video are the long nosed fruit pruners . I believe that’s what they call them.
Thanks Ben - I'll buy a set
Hi Ben, should I feed my roses as I only planted them in May? They are doing excellent but not sure if I should feed or not? ❤
May I ask, have they been potted into large containers or have you planted them in the ground?
@@the_gardenerben they are in big pots
@@nataliesknowledge7962 if they’ve only been in there since May I should assume the compost and the media you used still has plenty of nutritional value. I wouldn’t waste your money on feeding them this season. There’s lots of guides here on TH-cam for you to watch about top dressing and replenishing the soil and then I would start liquid feeding next year.
@@the_gardenerben thank you so much 🙏🏼
