Hello Jason, for 58 years of my life I avoided roses in my garden, telling everyone that they have prickely thorns, and, if you grow them in your garden you have to spray the whole year with questionable liquids against pests and diseases. Three years ago I fell in love with a specific rose while watching TV. Since then I´ve bought/planted/maintained so many roses (mostly DA), that the space in my garden is now very limited.(My bucket list is very long,,,) Long story short: I can relate to every point you made (in all your videos). Sure, there are many informative channels and blogs around, but no one with the in-depth information and your honest and unagitated approach. 3 years and over 40 different roses later I have to thank you from the bottom of my heart, every one of your videos seemes to be a master class of rose gardening for me. Take care, stay safe and best wishes, Hanni.
We all run down what we half understand. Human we are.However i am glad that you found Roses and studied them close up .Yours Lord Parr a rose garden fan and owner
I really appreciate this video. I have 17 bushes I have taken charge of, I’d say about 75% are survivors from my late grandmother’s yard. I want to do what I can to make them prosper like she did.
Roses are easier to grow when you know what conditions they need. I moved my rose to a sunny area in my yard and it thanked me by blooming all summer. It had less leaf spot too.
I love your videos, thank you for sharing! I had gotten into regular upkeep for my neighbor whose rose garden is very old. 30plus years. I am 31! So after years of neglect, I have had opportunity to care for them and have hard pruned first ever of several and am looking forward to seeing their rejuvenation! I am nervous as all the neighbors are seeing my work on four different yards that I've accumulated on the street, just from keeping up my folks place. Thank you sir, from central California!
This channel is great, i bought a house in 2020 that has a ton of rose bushes in the backyard, and ive been going back and forth between channels to learn about roses, how to take care of them, harvesting seeds, etc. but this one always has what im looking for. Ive never really cared about roses or plants before but i am quickly developing a passion for roses, plants, trees, and shrubs. Thank you for your hard work, straight forward info, and i would love to visit your nursery some day!
So relieved that you mentioned mixing roses with other bloomers and plants! We get a little crazy when we start adding species. Again thanks for sharing your knowledge of roses and gardening in general!
Thank you so much for putting so much effort and information in these videos. So glad, I found your channel. Feel like I'm one step closer to my rose garden dreams! ❤️
A friend of mine recommended this channel when I started talking about creating a rose garden for my mother's ashes (her wish). She grew roses when I was a kid. After a good bit of research and watching your channel (thank you!) I decided to plant the roses with my blueberries and my cut flower garden.
I have two David austin roses in pots and want to get a maidens blush next. Still in college for another year so have to keep them potter till I’m settled down. I plan for a massive old rose garden one day and this channel has helped my planning a lot
We just planted 37 rose bushes at our home and I an a total newbie at this! I'll be looking through all of your rose videos for info. My favorite girl so far is Stainless Steel ( I call her Remington). Sooo very pretty and the perfume from her is intoxicating. Thanks for this information!
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm The amount of detail you go into and knowledge you have is a rare find. Straight to the point and packed full of information, looking forward to more videos!
Thanks Jason for all your educational information. My husband has convinced me our main flowers in our landscapes are going to be different types of roses. He loves their constant flowering and I love their fragrance. We are learning from you! We have our trellis gazebo for our climbers and are working on the yard border to prepare for our edge roses. We will pick them out next spring.
I am stoked to get started with roses. I’ve tried before and failed miserably 😅😅😅 rust and aphids. Now I have a big garden thought with lots of beneficial insects so I’m hoping it helps with the aphid problem I had before. I just bought a beautiful bouquet and I’m going ti try and root them. I also bought two mini roses at Trader Joe’s and I’m going to repot them and nurture them!
Thanks for this great video, I’m a big houseplant lady but trying my hand at outdoor gardening these past couple years. Love the Canadian content, I’m out here in Newfoundland! 👍 🇨🇦
Thanks. I haven't quite made it out to your part of the the country yet - we got as far as Quebec City before the kids convinced us to turn around. I see you're still getting some cooler nights. Spring has definitely sprung here!
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Yes sir, it certainly has sprung out here too, well for the east coast 🤣 One day you will be able to get out here and witness this beautiful land. Roses love it here 🌹 I sure do miss the big sky country and those sunsets!
Thank you again. I'm an amateur garden who likes roses but doesn't have the time or energy to be slave to them. A bit of cosmetic damage is fine and, if only for financial reasons, my bed are mixed with roses and perennials. I did prune a newly planted David Austin (was neglected at the garden center) right before the hot spell came, but I think that it will survive. I now know to just leave well enough alonr.
I have been following your channel for quite a while now and I have learnt a lot from you, thank you. I am just an amateur, with over a hundred roses in a small garden in a big city ("big" by European standards, at least;-)). I especially love floribunda roses with single flowers. I have succeeded in propagating some roses from the bouquets I have been given by my students, which I am really proud of. I am still trying to identify some of the roses I have propagated from cuttings. I am going to add a Tottering-by-Gently rose to my collection if I manage to purchase it in the spring.
'Tottering by Gently' looks great - and so atypical of the Austin roses. I only floribunda I've grown with single petals is Betty Prior, and boy does it bloom non-stop!
I have better success growing my roses in pots, because I am able to move it around to follow the sun :), control the soil, etc. Super easy because I also feed the birds, who returns the favor by eating the bugs around the pots. No need for pesticide except for neem oil and baking soda for the tiny bugs and black spots. I like your educational videos. Thank you
G'day form Australia 🇦🇺🪃🇦🇺🇦🇺👍👍🪃🪃🪃 Great Info I am really loving your tips & videos. I am starting a forest Garden covered in mulch which has lavender, fruit trees so I was pleased 😃to hear Roses 🌹do well in vegetable gardens I really want to attract bees 🐝🐝 I have just planted (only this month from nursery ) x 7 Standard bare root roses. And 4 small bush roses that are a few years old from pots into the soil. I'm based Rural - Australia where we get weather in Winter which can get to - 3 to 0 c which is around 37 F & Summer 45 C + = 113F. I have put lots of Mulch to help retain water as we get droughts where I am so some times watering isn't really an option due to water restrictions (fingers crossed 🤞they do well) but lots of farms here have roses in garden. We have just gone into Spring and some of my new Standard roses are getting there first flush of leaves ( and a bit of black spot on some leaves ) but now after seeing your post I'm not worried THANKYOU. Any advice would be appreciated.
Best of luck with your new roses. Aside from the warmer stretches, I've heard there's plenty to envy about the Australian rose growing climate. I've been told that pest problems are far less pronounced in general, and I'd love to have minimum temps in the -3C range. Little risk of winter damage.
Oh nice. I was thinking about putting a climbing rose and clematis on one side of the steps going to the deck. It seems like the maintenance will be akin to raspberries? The other side of the steps has catmint. Jacob's ladder will help shade the clematis roots. Chives will be nearby. I hope that's enough to help bring in beneficial insects. I'd prefer nearly thornless roses.
Jason is the Rose 🌹 Guru in my opinion. But I’d love to know a bit more about growing “Seashore Homed Roses”. I spend a good portion of Summer at our shore home, and want Roses as a part of landscaper. But the only Roses I’ve heard do well, are the Knockout & Rambling varieties. Can we grow container Roses with a good soil & plenty of sunshine in a salty air environment? Nothing would make me happier than enjoying Roses on my deck where I spend so much of my Summertime. Thanks so much🙏.
The rugosa roses do well on the shore. They're tough, reblooming and nicely scented. The only downsides are that the habit/form can be a little less "refined" than some other roses, and they're generally quite thorny
Thank you so much this was so helpful. I have a question about climbers. I live in the NE. The home that I bought has a massive pale pink climber rose. It probably was planted sometime after the late 1940’s. Because that’s when the house was built and it was originally a summer home. It is next to a tall brick wall. It’s so intertwined and has some stems or branches that are 3 inches around. I don’t know where to begin to care for it. The blooms are just beautiful and their fragrance fills the yard. I would love to fertilize it and prune it this spring. With the massive size and thorns I don’t know where to begin. Any advice would be most welcomed, Also can I secure some of its longer shoots to the brick wall ? Thank you.
I just planted 5 roses along a fence in my backyard and then went to TH-cam to find out what the heck to do now. You are amazing. I am so appreciative for this content. It's going to make a big difference in my experience growing roses. I'm actually excited to plant more varieties now. I am concerned about one thing. We have a few rabbits that have moved in under a shrub in our front yard and the roses are just around the corner. Since the roses are so new and only about a 30 cm high, is there a serious risk the rabbits might chomp on them? I am considering caging the roses in a ring of chicken wire until they mature a bit more. The rabbits are my only concern right now.
Hi Mic. Yes, rabbits can definitely go after your rose shoots. I've had some severe damage down low on mine. It's not a bad idea to protect your roses with a cage, at least until they're a bit more established
Roses are often planted in wineries because they are very prone to the same diseases and the roses will get the disease before the vineyards get them so the wine farmers will know when to spray the wines. Did you know that? My Dad had a wine farm overseas before we moved to NZ. That is how I knew.
I love your atitude about pests and diseases. Thank you for the great video. Have you ever grown roses for cutflowers? Not the traditional tee hybrids but more of the nostalgic varieties like David Austin roses or piano roses?
Hi .. I've never grown a rose. I will check out "help me find" site. Curious to know if Floribundas will grow in zone 5b NW location, mostly shaded area. Any thoughts?
Jason,I value Your time to give us all those informations.I go over them often.Few weeks ago I was watching video, where You showed Your whole garden and there You pointed at big bush of white rose,,and You sad : This is ....Enigma. I vas looking for this rose 25 years ago,,when we were living in townhouse in Surrey.Do you have it ready for sale? I mean in spring 2022.I am living now in West Kelowna in prefabricated home and I have room for more roses. I will need also few bushes for shady area.Fragrant !!!Thank You. Jarmila(Yara) Kroutil
❤Thank you for the tips. I ordered # Evelyn a climbing, cluster David Austin old peachy rose seedling for my rose arch in partial shade coz tropical Malaysia can be so wet & hot like real torrential rain here. Powdery Mildew & Black Spot are typical problems here😊
Thanks Jason, any tips on the native Nootka rose....I live in Smithers bc and want to use this as pollinator attractor and decoration around the homestead. Is there another more "cultivarish" rose you would recomend that would interect well withthe native polibators?
There's loads of rugosa and Scots' rose hybrids hardy enough, and they're all pollinator friendly. Have a quick look at Therese Bugnet (classic farmstead rose!), Morden Ruby, JP Connell, Purple Pavement and see what strikes you.
Hi Jason can you help out please I have some new roses I am looking to repot them into bigger pots can you a video on this please thank you I like your video’s I am learning so much from your video’s there’s so much that I didn’t know thank you
Just an off topic question? Can I wrap burlap around my rose bushes for winter protection from rabbits? I have rabbits that gnaw on my roses bushes every winter to the point of almost girdling them. If I wrap burlap around them I’m hoping that the little buggers can’t get through it to gnaw on them. Your thoughts or any other suggestions would be helpful. I tried rose bush guards and they didn’t work, they didn’t cover much if anything on the bush. I need help please?💚🙃
Let them do their initial rooting and first flush of growth first. After that, I usually fertilize lightly every 4 to 6 weeks from early spring until mid summer.
I recently learned you quit your management job to pursue this, I'm in a similar position where I quit my management position only to take on the responsibility of quite a huge garden.
Thank you for the great information. Regarding planting roses in the spring; Am I better off waiting till the last frost to pass before I plant my roses out in the garden ? Roses in question have already broken their dormancy.
They'll take a light frost. I'd only hold off if you're expecting some severe weather - but I bet they'd be fine going out by now, and would benefit from the sun and fresh air.
I have to transplant a medium to large rose plant that is 11 years old, we inherited it from previous owner of acreage. They planted it in the NE corner, so it doesn't get a great deal of sun, just some morning sun. How much of the root system do I need to take with the plant? It didn't flower last year, but, the previous years gave me some beautiful pink roses. Thank you.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thank you so much for the information. We have 3 acres, and, are hoping to grow both flowers and vegetable gardens. It'll be hard work, yet, rewarding and fun, I think.
Thanks for the informations, Can you please suggest any rooting products from Indian market (online like Amazon)if possible because I am not able find which one is good to buy
Another excellent video Jason - thanks. I have a Fiesta climber in a pot for 2 years now - it has lost all of its leaves after having a small flush of roses a month ago. Do I need to repot with new soil or what? I have pruned it back throughout time, consequently it has a number of spindly, long shoots - would hate to lose it but not sure if I should repot with new soil and cut back to the old wood and see what happens?
Speaking of pests and diseases..my roses look stunning spring to mid summer then black spot seems to just decimate them...seems to just come out of nowhere 😔
Roses like alot of air flow. Don't let the plant get congested. Remove a few leaves EVERY single day religiously, especially any with black spot. Like Jason suggests, sulfur definitely helps but that's once you have the problem. This is not alot of work, it takes moments if you remain consistent. Prevention is key.
Hello Jason ! We have or had a nice rose shrub that had beautiful red blooms ! Last year it bloomed with small white blooms and this year almost nothing at all ! Should we just dig it out and get another ?
Rose newbie here! I have 3 China roses and my mom told me that I should be cutting them way down for the winter and then cover the base of them with soil to protect them (I'm in Southwestern Ontario) but you're saying I should not cut my roses in the fall?
Hi Rae. It depends on the climate and the hardiness of the roses. If the rose is fully hard your winter temperatures, it shouldn't be necessary to cover the crown (and trapped moisture can do more harm than good). I generally don't prune roses before winter. I think the China roses may be borderline for Ontario. Any way to shelter the crown from cold wind would be helpful. Check my vid on overwintering roses where I make a "bin" for dry leaves with some plastic fencing, and protect the base of the plants that way.
Hi Chandra - not too sure on the ratio. I tend to be pretty generous with my compost applications, and if I incorporated bone meal at 30% it might end up being more than I need. I think a general recommendation for bone meal as a top dress is 1 to 2 tbsp per plant.
Hello Jason, for 58 years of my life I avoided roses in my garden, telling everyone that they have prickely thorns, and, if you grow them in your garden you have to spray the whole year with questionable liquids against pests and diseases.

Similar to raspberry - or perhaps a little less so: often times with a climbing rose, you can get away with a fairly light pruning/shaping.

Jason,I value Your time to give us all those informations.I go over them often.Few weeks ago I was watching video,
where You showed Your whole garden and there You pointed at big bush of white rose,,and You sad : This is ....Enigma.
I vas looking for this rose 25 years ago,,when we were living in townhouse in Surrey.Do you have it ready for sale?
I mean in spring 2022.I am living now in West Kelowna in prefabricated home and I have room for more roses.
I will need also few bushes for shady area.Fragrant !!!Thank You. Jarmila(Yara) Kroutil
Thanks Jarmila. It's not ready for sale yet, but I will have 'Darlow's Enigma' listed on the online store in spring.
❤Thank you for the tips. I ordered # Evelyn a climbing, cluster David Austin old peachy rose seedling for my rose arch in partial shade coz tropical Malaysia can be so wet & hot like real torrential rain here.
Powdery Mildew & Black Spot are typical problems here😊
What is your opinion on using worm casting tea or castings to fertilize?
Worm castings are great!
Thanks Jason, any tips on the native Nootka rose....I live in Smithers bc and want to use this as pollinator attractor and decoration around the homestead. Is there another more "cultivarish" rose you would recomend that would interect well withthe native polibators?
There's loads of rugosa and Scots' rose hybrids hardy enough, and they're all pollinator friendly. Have a quick look at Therese Bugnet (classic farmstead rose!), Morden Ruby, JP Connell, Purple Pavement and see what strikes you.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm do you sell any of your reccos?
Especially the purple pavement

So so helpful.. New subbie

Just an off topic question? Can I wrap burlap around my rose bushes for winter protection from rabbits? I have rabbits that gnaw on my roses bushes every winter to the point of almost girdling them. If I wrap burlap around them I’m hoping that the little buggers can’t get through it to gnaw on them. Your thoughts or any other suggestions would be helpful. I tried rose bush guards and they didn’t work, they didn’t cover much if anything on the bush. I need help please?💚🙃
Hi Judy. Sure, burlap would probably work. I also sometimes use a wire mesh cage to protect my roses
Hello, what rose is showing in your clip at 2.42 minutes? I love it ..
question about :how often to fertilize bare root ?thanks
Let them do their initial rooting and first flush of growth first. After that, I usually fertilize lightly every 4 to 6 weeks from early spring until mid summer.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm thanks jason
there are several fertilizers for roses. Which do you think is best and which ones would you recommend for roses ?
Can roses be pruned back now in zone 6 michigan they are just starting to bud?
Yes, no problem.
Fun!
I recently learned you quit your management job to pursue this, I'm in a similar position where I quit my management position only to take on the responsibility of quite a huge garden.
That sounds like an interesting challenge!
Thank you for the great information.
Regarding planting roses in the spring; Am I better off waiting till the last frost to pass before I plant my roses out in the garden ?
Roses in question have already broken their dormancy.
They'll take a light frost. I'd only hold off if you're expecting some severe weather - but I bet they'd be fine going out by now, and would benefit from the sun and fresh air.
I have to transplant a medium to large rose plant that is 11 years old, we inherited it from previous owner of acreage. They planted it in the NE corner, so it doesn't get a great deal of sun, just some morning sun. How much of the root system do I need to take with the plant? It didn't flower last year, but, the previous years gave me some beautiful pink roses. Thank you.
As much as you can without it becoming too large a job.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thank you so much for the information. We have 3 acres, and, are hoping to grow both flowers and vegetable gardens. It'll be hard work, yet, rewarding and fun, I think.
Thanks for the informations, Can you please suggest any rooting products from Indian market (online like Amazon)if possible because I am not able find which one is good to buy
Another excellent video Jason - thanks. I have a Fiesta climber in a pot for 2 years now - it has lost all of its leaves after having a small flush of roses a month ago. Do I need to repot with new soil or what? I have pruned it back throughout time, consequently it has a number of spindly, long shoots - would hate to lose it but not sure if I should repot with new soil and cut back to the old wood and see what happens?
Sounds like it's struggling Kathy. I wouldn't hesitate to repot, cut low and see how it reacts.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Oh thanks Jason, that's what I thought too. So many thanks for your response and keep up the good work.
Speaking of pests and diseases..my roses look stunning spring to mid summer then black spot seems to just decimate them...seems to just come out of nowhere 😔
Yeah, black spot is my most common problem too. I'm playing around a little more with sulfur this year, and I'll let you know how it goes.
Roses like alot of air flow. Don't let the plant get congested. Remove a few leaves EVERY single day religiously, especially any with black spot. Like Jason suggests, sulfur definitely helps but that's once you have the problem. This is not alot of work, it takes moments if you remain consistent. Prevention is key.
Plant in early spring? When would that be in the southern tier of NY? Thank you.
If the weather has turned, March.
Should I cover my rose (planted this summer) when it frosts or snows? I am in zone 7b.
I don't cover any of my roses in zone 8 - and unless it's something particularly tender, I don't think you'll need to in zone 7 either.
Love the place you live. How do we come and visit your farm ?
Take a right hand turn from Vancouver and drive for about an hour.
I got a rose from Lowes and has wax on the end of it. What should I do with that?
Hello Jason ! We have or had a nice rose shrub that had beautiful red blooms ! Last year it bloomed with small white blooms and this year almost nothing at all ! Should we just dig it out and get another ?
We are in Burlington On. Ca.
It sounds a lot like a rootstock sucker has taken over. Yes, probably best to get yourself a new rose.
Rose newbie here! I have 3 China roses and my mom told me that I should be cutting them way down for the winter and then cover the base of them with soil to protect them (I'm in Southwestern Ontario) but you're saying I should not cut my roses in the fall?
Hi Rae. It depends on the climate and the hardiness of the roses. If the rose is fully hard your winter temperatures, it shouldn't be necessary to cover the crown (and trapped moisture can do more harm than good). I generally don't prune roses before winter. I think the China roses may be borderline for Ontario. Any way to shelter the crown from cold wind would be helpful. Check my vid on overwintering roses where I make a "bin" for dry leaves with some plastic fencing, and protect the base of the plants that way.
Can I fertilize my rose with compost and bone meal in a ratio of 70:30?
Hi Chandra - not too sure on the ratio. I tend to be pretty generous with my compost applications, and if I incorporated bone meal at 30% it might end up being more than I need. I think a general recommendation for bone meal as a top dress is 1 to 2 tbsp per plant.
