Companion Planting with Roses Webinar

This is a webinar I did sponsored by Jackson & Perkins and The American Rose Society. It covers concepts of companion planting and we even venture into some design tips.

Mr. Zimmerman you are a gem of information and experience. Thanks so very much for this valuable information!

Lots of rose places including actual breeders/growers say you can plant as close as you want especially to make a full hedge/border. And when you see their photos the companion plants surround the roses so much that you just see rose blooms popping up amongst the companion plants. They all seem to do just fine.

I like my plants to touch. Not crowd but just touch.

@@Paulzimmermanroses I think it's nice to be able to see the roses properly rather than just blooms popping up between other plants. But hey as long as I can see roses in any of those people's pictures it is nice.

@@goldengirl65 I always say whatever style works for the person whose garden it is, is the correct one!

What is the name of the purple Dianthis shown in the texture slide? I’m in Australia.

[@Paulzimmermanroses]

I believe it's Firewitch.
