"Let the rose declare its intentions." Very well said. Keeps us from getting carried away with pruning.
Jason!!!! Your video quality is so good that even watching on my cell phone, the images look 3D!! I get so excited when I see a video come through from you!
You da MAN!!!!
Thanks so much for the feedback!
Love this followup. Would love to see you continue with these videos in the future!
You explain things so clearly and I love to hear you talk. Your voice is so nice.
Your roses are so pretty, you definitely make it look easy.
Well I hope I make it look "doable".
OMG! The flowers on your Rosarium Utersen and Leda are drop-dead-gorgeous! 🌹🌹🌹
Madame Hardy is being tested for winter hardines this year (2023-2024) in a typically harsh climate. Rose de Rescht is one of my favourites next to Indigo. RdR isn't cane hardy in my climate but makes a beautiful round shrub following a hard spring pruning and reaches 4 feet by the end of Ontario's short growing season. Distant Drums isn't cane hardy in my climate either. If only it could be pruned down to 18" instead of the 4" each spring. It reaches a maximum height of 3 feet in my region with that hint of myrrh, given that one of its grandparents is a David Austin. Gorgeous rose!
Low stress training works on many plants! So excited to see you make it work with that apple shoot/tree!
This is the best type of videos; showing the actual results.
Great followup. You have such an extensive collection of old roses I've only seen in books. Love how you are training the apple tree so it will be easy to pick from. Brilliant use of old tires for your field roses. 🌹 💐 🏵
You make it seem so easy. I have a 80-85 year old Queen Elizabeth we dug up from my Grandparents place after they passed. I would really like to clone it and give all my family a rose 🌹 what was from Grandma. I’m just afraid of killing it.
Wow - that's an old QE! I wish you the best of luck in propagating it - I hear it's not too hard to stick
I really like the westerland rose but not having much luck finding it in stock.
I hope you do - it's a great performer!
Thank You Jason this is my favorite video yet. Not only did I learn new info. It was entertaining. Keep up the up
date. Also the showing of your other kinds of flowering plants. So exciteing..I love the pride in your voice..like a very proud parent. 🌹
Beautiful beautiful beautiful roses n wonderful vids. Love them all. Thanks Jason for the wonderful tips. throughout your videos. Following your vids always 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Thank you
Those cherry color blooms are gorgeous
Good examples of what happens when you move or reshape a rose. We moved a 35+ year old rose 5 years ago, and it blooms more now than it did during the previous 25, it was in too much shade, hadn't bloomed in 15 years! I cut it reasonably hard each year, because if I left it alone it would be over 12 feet tall, and by September/October it's usually back up to 8-10 feet. One heavy hitting tall Floribunda (I think that's what it is anyway). No tags to check with.
Nice - so good to hear about your rose's successful move!
Glad to hear it. So many say an old rose won’t move at all, so I’m glad to hear it does well and that you can do it successfully!
Super helpful. I have moved a lot of roses that came with our old house as we have to redo the patio. I have previously learned you had to cut them down but actually choose on my own not to do so and happy to see your recommendation of letter the rose tell you what works. One thing I do not know if you have made a video about is placement. I have moved all roses to places with less sun out of space constraints and to see how they respond. Will be interesting to see how they respond to the less sun but soil conditions that will be less dry hopefully helping to combat mildew.
That's a tough balance, but you're right: only experience will tell you how they react. I've even seen roses improve their performance when given a little high or afternoon shade, especially in the heat of summer.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm and I have found roses easy to move. Where they were before was full sun but raise so difficult to keep the soil moist and it always would cause mildew. I might move the back but the in front of the patio when it’s rebuilt if they do not like the new places.
I am loving the rose field. I am definitely going to try that in my garden. Thanks for sharing 😊
Glad to see the results with the excavator!
Beautiful Roses! Love Roses!Thank you!
Hi Jason, I live in Brisbane Australia, so very different climate zone, but find your videos so helpful, inspiring, simply the best, totally addicted! My absolute "go to" for all things roses! Thank you so much !
Thanks so much Michael. I'm happy to hear you find the videos useful!
I moved a Winchester Cathedral rose this pre-spring, from a bad low-light position to a large container (temporarily), and it is doing so well now! I have had it for years, and was afraid to kill it so I am SO happy it is doing way better than before I moved it 😊 Thank you!
So happy to hear it. Winchester Cathedral is one of my favorites
Awesome!
Wow! That rose field I'm jealous!
I always enjoy watching your posts.
Thanks so much!
Your videos are so educational ! ❤
Thanks for the walk in your garden, it's beautiful!
awesome video as always really enjoy them, thanks for posting.
Thanks Allan!
Wow...lovely, lovely roses! I always learn something from you, but I am watching this again, just to see all your lovely roses!
Jason thanks for the update on the pruning was wanting to see the end result. What is the beautiful ground cover around the container. Also my husband is really studying your pruning information and even helpful info for our fruit trees! TY
Omg your roses are gorgeous, do you ever ship slips, would love to purchase a slip. These are simply amazingly beautiful! God bless, stay safe and healthy! Keep up the great work with your beautiful rose garden.
Thanks Michele. So far we've been shipping within Canada - and I'll see if we can extend that past the border in coming months.
That Apple tree is amazing! I can’t believe how it looks. You would never know how much you cut that! Amazing. I am trying to get my roses to be bushier. I am just going to dead head them through out the summer and may not prune them too heavy next spring. I hope that works🙏🏻
Thanks Lois. It's now my best-shaped tree!
Love love this video. Your roses are gorgeous..thank you. I have about 20 roses in my garden..I want to get some david austin roses next year..
I love the damask fragrance...enjoying your video with a cup of coffee..
Thank you for the info!
Thanks for this very informative and much needed clarifying update! I have learned so much!
So happy to hear it. Thanks for watching
I would really appreciate if you would guide your viewers through another tour of the roses on your property, perhaps next Spring. I appreciate seeing not only the rose itself but the bush as a whole. It often takes a lot of searching through images online to decipher the nature of a rose’s growth habits. Thus, it is fascinating to see your rose bushes in their entirety. Thanks for considering.
You bet. Thanks for the suggestion, and I'm sure I'll be able to do a more comprehensive tour in the spring.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thank You Jason! I think you would be very busy during the spring flush at your rose farm, but to hear the names and see the roses bushes in their full form would never be considered excessive to a rose hobbyist. And thank you for all the information and videos that you out out.
I loved your idea of the tyres, this inspired me and so bought some concrete tree surrounds but square. I’ve just painted them and putting them around some new bare root roses I planted last week. Looks amazing!
Fantastic to see all the updates, lots of successes and gorgeous color on your property right now!
Thanks for your follow up Jason! Appreciate it a lot! I'm a newbie rose plant lover & that helps a lot! God Bless!
Beautiful!
Very beautiful field👍👍👍 Thank you!
Great video Jason enjoyed the follow up and see the results 👍
ahhh! nothing better than early summer bloom! jah! i can dig it.
Just beautiful! All the various colors and types of roses are so interesting!
Incredible
Amazing video. I love your rose garden updates. So inspiring !
Great video as always. Nice to see the progress. I done a hard prune on all my roses and they are certainly thankful for it
Good to hear Clair
At the beginning I thought it was Abraham Darby behind your shoulder on the right side of the screen. Later on you mentioned the Abraham Darby rose, and I think I was right, which was nice. I am looking for the perfect red rose. Something similar to what is sold in bunches of red roses for Valentines day. Roses that last a long time in a vase. Unfortunately David Austin roses seem to drop their petals quite quickly once cut for a vase. Perhaps the red roses I seek are not sold to gardeners, but kept for commercial use only.
Thank you will do👍🏻🌹
Thank you for this follow-up video. It answered a lot of questions that I had and gives me more confidence to prune more aggressively (sometimes). That was a nice looking fig at 9:15... what variety is it and does it produce for you? Do you ever propagate and sell fig trees?
Cheers,
Steven
Thanks Steven. That one is 'Celeste' and yes, it's fairly productive (for a tree that's crowded and in a bit of shade). I've put in a couple of other fig trees (unknown varieties from other local gardeners). They take a while to establish in our heavy soil, but I've been surprised by how well they tolerate the odd blast of arctic air. I haven't propagated them - but for no other reason than it seems there's a fair bit of local competition.
What a great post ! Thanks so much !!!
My pleasure Nelida. Thanks for watching
Thank you Jason for your vast knowledge of roses. You have some beauties there! I have one rose (don't know the variety but is supposed to be lilac in colour) that has never bloomed. At first I thought it was getting acclimatized to a new area (after I moved from one area to another), but it's been at least 4 years. What am I doing wrong?
Hmmm. That's a tough one. If the rose seems to be putting on healthy growth otherwise, it should have tried blooming by now. This is only a shot in the dark (and forgive me if I'm stating the obvious) but some once-blooming roses bloom on "old wood" so if you follow the rules and prune it low in early spring, you'll never see any flowers. If it's one of those, you would time pruning for later in the season. The only other thing I can think is climate - some roses just don't perform well in some climates (like centifolias in the tropics, for instance). I wish I could be more helpful!
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thank you for your response Jason :) I've never had to prune it as rabbits keep eating it right down to the nubbin! This might explain it... Maybe it's time to put in another rose bush!
Hello Jason, I would like if you can make video about what is proper way, and how to properly mulch roses. How much to cover crown of the rose. There is so much different information. Very much appreciated if you can do that. Thank you in advance.
Thanks. I'll add it to my list.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Super, thank you.
Omar khayam has quiet a history attached to it Jason..it was at another grave of Edward Fitzgerald in Suffolk.. England..poor thing .. just glorifying graves..in 1893 from where a cutting got taken & the rest is history.. i’ve now ordered 19 of your shown roses including Omar khayam to give it a bit of respect & normality for once to grace my garden
Thanks - it looks a little "informal" in pictures, but it's still on my want list
I wish you could ship to Ontario. I would love to have Distant Drums.
Thanks for the video!
Thank you for your delightful videos! we had a very cold and wet spring here in Austria, so my roses lag about 2 weeks behind yours - I guess in a regular year, they would be as well developed as yours, which are just stunning.
the rose behind your right shoulder at 0:25 into the video, is this Cardinal Richelieu?
and what is the name of th bright orange one at 5:30?
and the last one?
sorry for bombarding you with questions...
Hi Peter. Thanks so much! I have two purple roses behind my right shoulder in that shot. The one in the foreground is 'Robert le Diable' and the one way in the back is indeed 'Cardinal de Richelieu'. Very similar flowers, but I find Cardinal de Richelieu far too susceptible to mildew in my climate. The orange flowered rose is 'Fellowship' (marketed as Livin' Easy in America - not sure how they sell it in Europe). The rose in the final shot is 'Complicata'
Howdy Jason🙋♀️, can you tell me how to find out what type of rose I have? It was here befor I moved in. Thankyou for all the informed information on roses👍 It's soooo helpful 🤠⚘🌹🥀❤
Hi Gus. It can be tough to ID an unknown rose. After taking some good pictures of flowers, foliage, size & habit, I'd probably start at your local garden center(s). There's some chance that what was planted in your new yard was one commonly sold in your area. If that doesn't pan out, you can use those pictures to post to one of the Facebook rose groups.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm thanks Jason for responding. I will do just that 👍Have a great day🤠
What a fun video - listening to the rose- exciting to see the results!!!!
I love Lida (Lyta? Leeda?) Unable to find with Lida but I know I've looked it up before. Soooo beautiful.
I'm so happy to see your roses - and mine! In June. COVID is releasing its grip and all is abloom.
Warmest regards
Jennie
Thanks Jennie. It's 'Leda' like from the Greek myth. I couldn't be happier to see the covid restrictions coming off!
When is the best time to prune roses? Which of your videos do I have to watch to get that answer..
Your roses are gorgeous. Thanks for sharing.
You're welcome. The short answer is usually late winter (for repeat bloomers) or just after the initial bloom period (if you missed the first window or you're pruning a once-blooming rose)
I am just an avid fan to grow roses, every year I have problems with insects, aphids, japanese beatles, wonder what is the best way to treat this insects and also the maintenance or up keep so it will stay healthy and at least a bit less buggy
The overall long-term answer is to plant your garden with lots of different kinds of plants. The beneficial insects that bring pests under control require diversity of flowers and habitat to thrive.
Love all your roses videos and Rose farm space so nice plan!
I'm totally jealous.
Bravo!!!
Fantastic presentation, as usual...beautiful roses, beautiful garden! I commend you for "rescuing" old clones that are no longer commercially available. When I was much younger, I used to rescue Epigaea repens from bulldozers. As a long time subscriber, I remember an older video where you mentioned a variety you liked better than Bonica. Looked back at a number of your videos and didn't find it...was my old mind playing tricks on me or do you have a better rose in mind? Thanks for what you do.
Hi Rich. We don't have Epigaea repens in our area, but it looks wonderful! My memory might be failing me too, but if I was thinking of an older rose that was comparable to Bonica, I may have mentioned Ballerina. Different bloom form, but similarly adaptable to a wide range of gardens.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thanks
I am wondering how those roses in the United Kingdom, and elsewhere that had been growing wild for hundreds of years without anybody doing all these busy work of prunning, busy work, etc. still look gorgeous?
I've seen my share of wild roses in hedges and roadsides that look quite nice in bloom, and I've also seen them looking wild, brambly, suckering and bare around the knees (which especially stands out when not so distracted by the flowers!). It's not really a matter of either/or - you can appreciate wild roses left to their own size and form, and you can also appreciate the difference judicious pruning and management can make within the context of a garden.
Excellent follow up video, thanks Jason! I moved 2 rosebushes in spring, pruned as normal, & now they seem to still be in shock 😔. Hope they recover by next yr. Distant Drums is gorgeous!! Gonna see if i can get that in UK. Also planted 6" Black Lace Elderberry in spring. How long before it makes a beautiful statement in the garden? I just keep doing a whole lot of imagining for now, so exciting!
Thanks Joy. The elderberries are fast! I planted this one two years ago, and the display last year was nearly as impressive!
Wow!! They sound awesome!
Hi Fraser , thank you so much for the video. Could you please share some knowledge on iceberg rose. Dorota from London. Many thanks
Hi Dorota. Iceberg is a great old(er) floribunda. It's a strong repeat bloomer in my garden, starting early in the season and rarely without flower until very late. I do find it susceptible to black spot at times, so I stay on top of stripping leaves at the first signs of foliar disease. It already tends to be pretty sparse with leaves. Iceberg is famous for "sporting" - having stems appear with color and habit variations, so if you're loving the white shrub, you might also like 'Brilliant Pink Iceberg', 'Burgundy Iceberg' or 'Climbing Iceberg'.
How do you get deer to stop eating your roses.
@Loretta Vogel The only way I've found is to fence them out. Fox urine, people urine, "deer stop" pellets, human hair tied to the rose, nothing ever worked for me. Even if you live in a place where you could legally hunt them, you'll never be able to (nor would it be ethical to) eliminate them all.
I have to agree with DeMe Srvl in the other comment - there's no easy answer to deer problems. I hear you can have short-term success with Plantskydd, but it's something you'd have to keep applying frequently (and it's not inexpensive)
Thank you for sharing , I just want to know when is the best time in year for rose to pruning,
Late winter/early spring is the classic time to prune. If your climate isn't too hot, you can also prune fairly heavily after the first flush of flowers. If your winters aren't too cold, you can even go later into fall and winter. Sorry if that's not too clear cut - but it does depend on your climate.
Hey I’m new here and very excited to watch all your old videos. I have inherited responsibility at my school for a memorial garden for a child who died and we have several neglected roses. Do I prune hard in spring? Thanks!
Yes, early spring is the safest time for a significant pruning.
Please tell me what that lovely pink quartered rose was in the opening! Astounding!
Thanks Dolly. That rose was 'Eden'
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Good, I've already ordered it. I'm running out of room.
Hi Jason, what’s the ruby red globular rose at 5:27?
Thank for making all these wonderful rose videos, really inspirational.
That's Pomponella - and the buds are dark in this picture, but they're generally mid-pink
Hi Jason, thanks for the follow-up video. Really enjoyed seeing the before & after. I started planting roses last yr. I have 4 then & 8 now. I’ve learnt a lot from your videos and my roses r the envy of my neighborhood. Thanks, teacher! 😊👍🏼
Question: I have to fence in my roses to protect them from rabbits. In your videos, don’t see any fences around your roses. How do u protect them from becoming rabbit food?
There's no population of rabbits (or deer) on my part of Nicomen Island. Lucky me.
Hello Jason, thanks for your videos.I have my roses in large pots. I pruned them last August, and fertilized them with humus. One of them came up with new leaves which curl down but it hasn't shown any flower buds; I am wondering should I prune it again but more aggressively ? In March , I applied humus again.
I live in Bogota , we don't have seasons as in Canada, almost the same temp. All through the year, with rainy season or dry season.Thanks for any advice you can give me.
That's a long time to go without initiating any flowers. I'd be concerned about the health of the roots. Since they're in pots, that's something you can maybe check on the condition. Unless it's overgrown now, I probably wouldn't cut it back.
I do love your channel.. May I ask when you show your roses if you could put the spellings of them in the discription box or on the video.. I know its a lot but I would like to find some of the wonderful roses you show.. Thank you.
Turn on the captions - I've spelled them in the transcript
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm thank you I never thought of that.
I love all your roses. They are so beautiful ! ❤️❤️❤️ I love the before and after video. Excellent !! 👏👏👏
I wish I can grow Mdm Hardy but in FL we don't have enough cold BUT I do have Rose De Rescht and mine is 5 yrs old. Oh, I love the scent.
I did move my rose with your advice. Le Vesuve never knew I moved her. No problems at all. Thank you so much.
Can you spell out the other last rose which is demask rose ?
Thank you so much !!
Hi Jin. The final Damask I featured was 'Leda'
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm
I check HMF and it says zone 4 to 9 b. I wonder if I can grow it ?
Where can I buy that Lita rose you have there, it’s Gorgeous!!!🥰 Thank you for showing us all of these beautiful roses.
Hi Lita. If you're checking the online stores, it's spelled 'Leda' like from the Greek myth
Very interesting seeing this follow up video. Your roses look so amazing, no black spots to be seen anywhere! Do you spray them, or are they just so happy that they refused to become infected?
Hi Elie. I definitely have black spot in my garden. The timing of the tour was fairly good & a bit early for the worst of it. I don't let it bother me much. I incorporate a cleanup of old infected foliage in my deaheading and that's about all.
I am confused about deadheading and pruning climbers. If the flowers are at the tip of the branch can I cut them off? Do I then kill the part that reaches out to climb? Does the climbing limb need to come from the ground? Thank you for any assistance. I love your roses and information - always short and sweet tot eh point. thanks.
There's no exact rule about which part of your rose is to build the climbing framework. When you deadhead, one of the nearby lower buds should begin to show new vegetative growth, and if it's a nice long stem going in a good direction, you can train it (preferably horizontally) along to support new flowering side-shoots.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thank you. I will get a bit more adventurous!
Such healthy looking roses. Our pruning went well and our plants have put on great growth and are coming in to flower, finally, after a very cold Spring. Sadly we have so many aphids and not nearly enough predators. The two year old Philadelphus has been decimated by them.
We have ladybird larvae on order but how do we translate larvae per square metre to a 3D bush? Any advice would be gratefully received. Thanks
Hi Emma. I haven't used the ladybird larvae but have applied aphidoletes (aphid midge) with good success. The supplier will usually provide some guidance on introduction rates. When they use sq. meter they're obviously going with a 2D estimate of an "average" garden (whatever that is!) but if you're concerned that your aphid outbreak is severe and concentrated, you could up the rate by 50% or more.
I live in Sw Louisiana. I brought some plants in because it is supposed to to 31 degrees F. I worked industrial construction for a very long time. Loved roses. I bought my mom a few. So it occurred to me I could buy one if I wanted. So I did. Then I ordered a perfume rose. I put it in a huge pot! It has buds, and one has bloomed! So can I get them established inside, then prune them back?
Hi Debra. 31F isn't too threatening for most roses, and a little bit of cold can help them to settle them down for the winter. Not a big deal to tuck them in for a bit if you're concerned, but in your climate I'd probably try to overwinter outdoors in a spot sheltered from too much moisture. A little cleanup of any dead, damaged, diseased branches is okay, and you can also strip any diseased foliage as needed - but if they're quite newly established you might not need to do a lot of pruning until they put on some strong growth.
Very well presented Sir,I have a question Sir,Do you have any plans to start raising and helping honey bees.They will be really very happy in your beautiful rose garden and will be producing quite aromatic honey 😊.I guess so
Hi Jason, I learned a lot from your videos thank you! I have a question - sometimes my rose bush produces branches that are thicker and heavier than the main cane it grew from… What can I do to prevent/correct this? It’s my queen of sweden roses that does this.
I'm not sure it's anything you can prevent, but it sure would be nice to redirect that vigor into fresh strong stems from the base of the plant. I wonder if a judicious thinning of the oldest stems down low would help.
So beautiful, is coffee good for roses, some of my roses are not flowering at all. It used to not anymore
Coffee grounds are a fine addition to your compost or even directly to the plants.
Excellent presentation, I intend to create a small rose bed as a part of a larger garden, would you recommend having all the same colour /type or is it better to have a variety of colours? An Irish rose garden!
If I were putting in just a few varieties, I think I'd choose an assortment
I have 2 roses that have put up strong stalks that almost look like they are from the root stock but aren't coming up below ground. One is a new rose for me last year that didn't do much growing then. This spring it took off with these large canes and has the same flower as the rest of the bush. Now the rest of the bush isn't doing much growing. I got multiple roses off the large stalks. Should I cut those down to the height of the rest of the bush to get the rest of the bush growing again? These 2 stalks are growing straight up in the air too. The other bush that has done the same thing is a bush I've have for years. It also had more blooms this year than ever before. The only thing I did differently is added Alfalfa cubes around the base of them last fall.
Nice. If it's not from below the graft union, it could just be a vigorous new basal shoot (which is a good thing if it becomes productive) or something called a "blind shoot" (a vigorous new shoot that goes straight up but refuses to flower). Pruning them to more closely match the height of the shrub wouldn't be a bad thing either way. You'd expect your rose to rejuvenate from the base over time, and if it continues to send new shoots, you can selectively remove some of the older wood as you go.
Can you please remind the feeding schedule for these heavy blooming roses? I added about two cups of alfalfa pellets about a month ago when I transplanted them and they seem to completely disintegrated ( different issue with the spinach bed)
I go with some alfalfa every month or two in the spring, and top up with a little liquid fertilizer in between if they still seem like they need a boost.
Thank you Jason for further answering my last weeks question. My roses are struggling and I don’t know what I’m doing wrong, I know you can’t specifically help me out because of all of the variables, soil, sun exposure, watering ect... I’m determined to get them growing and beautiful. Do you think my water has anything to do with why they struggle. I have to hand water all of them, we never get enough rain in my area. My water has a lot of lime, or whatever the white stuff is. I run an evaporator and there’s always a chalky substance let behind a lot of chalky substance and I’m wondering if that is affecting the growth, health, of my roses? I’m hoping I can get your thoughts on this because as I said I am determined to get my rose bushes to prosper?💚🙃
Hi Judy. Yes, water and soil chemistry can definitely make a difference. If your water is hard (and sometimes this correlates to a fairly alkaline soil) it can make certain nutrients less available (phosphorus, iron, zinc, boron notably). If you want to be sure, this is one of those times when a soil test may be advisable.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thank you, I really believe my water is the issue, plus we have clay soil, but I’m almost convinced it the water.💚🙃
You rose field looks gorgeous and I have questions: why do you have about 10 feet distance between each rose plant? Instead of maybe 2 feet for example. Is density important In your field?
2 ft would be too tight for some varieties for sure. Our old rose field had approximately 4ft by 6ft spacing, and was still quite crowded on the larger varieties. When we transitioned to the new rose field, we knew we wanted to offer more generous spacing, but the actual measurement = 2x the width of our ride-on lawn mower!
Hello Jason, I learn a lot from your videos. May I know what variety is seen at the very beginning 0 second to 0.30 second ?. The pink colored on the stake ? Thank you so much for all the informations.
Thanks. It's 'Eden' or 'Pierre de Ronsard' (depending on your market)
Thank you Jason.
Hi Jason, I appreciate your teaching style. Thanks for the videos - I’ve watched quite a few. I recently became a homeowner and inherited some rose bushes so I’m trying to learn how to care for them. I do have a question and I would love if you can assist. I am in zone 6a and I have a rose bush getting a couple hours afternoon sun. I just moved in last fall so I don’t know how this particular bush usually performs, but as all the growth was coming up in the spring, it seems that the main center canes were all dead. I waited awhile to make sure, but they produced nothing. The branches off to the sides seem to be doing fine and blooming well. I don’t know enough about roses to be able to tell if these branches are suckers or from the main stem. My question is how can I help this plant? It’s very gangly now since it’s missing it’s center.
Hi Emily. Right off the bat, 2 hours of sun is a bit on the low side. I depends a bit on how bright the location is otherwise, but usually roses will perform best with a minimum of 6 hours/day. I hope you've gone ahead and removed any old, dead canes. Since you've moved it recently, it may take a little bit of time to return to vigorous growth, but when it does, you can prune even those side branches closer to the crown to encourage new shoots. Some of these older roses can begin to look a bit funny and lopsided over time, but annual pruning and feeding will help to restore a more balanced shape. Having said all that, the main question is this: do you like this rose? Are you happy with the form, fragrance & color of the blooms and the general healthiness of the foliage? If so, it's probably worth the efforts you're putting in to "rescue" it. If not, it may be better to hit Instagram for a garden rose that really excites you, and direct your efforts to towards that.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thank you for the response! Well you certainly went to the heart of the issue there 😂😂. I don’t find this type of rose particularly exciting. I just hate to pull up an established plant. It feels so wrong 😂😂. I think they might be the knock out roses… small, quick blooms with little fragrance. There is one bush in another area of the yard that I believe is a hybrid tea… the knock out ones just don’t even compare to the beauty and fragrance of that one! And watching some of your videos and other youtubers has definitely gotten me excited for some beautiful roses! I think you’re right - I should look for ones I enjoy 😊 But will put them in a sunnier spot.
When I said “moved in” I actually meant that I moved in to the home, not that I moved the rose. It is well established and looks like it has been there at least 5+ years. Yes, I did prune the dead canes. Since the center is gone, there really is no crown to prune the other ones towards, but I guess I would just aim for the general shape? I don’t know if I’ll swap them out this year, but eventually I probably will.
We have a joey Rose which smells wonderful but it is growing to strong should I prune it down now or wait till it stops blooming
Enjoy your blooms, and time your next pruning for after they fade.
Anyone here growing both Madame Hardy and Madame Plantier? Your fav between the two? Worried about the wind where I am with Plantier. I heard it's a little skinnier in it's branches.
Similar flower form, but yes, 'Madame Plantier' has much daintier stems - on the plus side, I find the overall form to be quite relaxed and graceful. 'Hardy' has stiffer stems and can hold an unattractive form when not in bloom.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm thank you :)
Love this follow up video! Can you please tell me the name of the big pink roses hanging from the metal structure at the beginning of this video? They are stunning!!
Thanks Ana. That rose is 'Eden' or 'Pierre de Ronsard' depending on the market
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thanks so much!
Hi jason. Thanks for the nice video and the follow up you did out there. Seeing the Damasc rose with the cherry pink or red edges broght the question to my mind : is this a mutation or hyberdizing that makes the two colors
It's a hybrid for sure - but it dates back to 1827, and I'm not sure the parentage is recorded
I'm moving across country the first part of September. I want to take my roses with me. What is the best way to do this.
Work ahead on it if you can - get them dug and into containers so that they can have some recovery time before the move. If it's getting warm now, you can always place the dug roses in a part shaded location to reduce stress.
Just wondering: I remember you saying you weren't a fan of using a wood chip much around the base of roses, but I noticed in this video, in the bed with the Distant Drums, it seems to be mulched. Is there a particular reason to go one way or the other?
Hi Justin. If memory serves, I may have been talking at the time about overwintering: that the moisture trapped in a deep layer of mulch pulled right up against the stem of a rose can promote rot. Overall, I'm a fan of organic mulches like wood chips added to the soil around roses - they help to retain moisture, moderate soil temperature, and slowly add organic matter. Still wouldn't heap them up over the crown of a rose during winter tho. I hope that helps.
Jason, do you dead head the climbing roses?
You can. I've been a bit busy for it, but it works the same way to hasten the next set of flowers.
I really like this rose the distant drums. Can you or anyone tell me of a company or breeder who would ship to the UK? I just got Leda this year as bareroot.
I have two small young bordure camaieu rose bushes that have yellowing leaves so I added sulphur to topsoil. Should I prune them? It’s winter in Sth Australia and I planted them a month ago.
Hi Sharon. I try to give young (newly planted) roses a little time to establish before I consider much pruning or other corrective action. I don't know your soil (is it fairly alkaline? is that why the sulfur?) but a bit of yellowing on a new plant isn't alarming. The young roots need to establish before they can do a good job of nutrient uptake. If you're happy with the site, soil and drainage in general, I'd just give the rose a bit of time, patience, and regular watering - and leave pruning and feeding until you see signs of strong new growth.
Very enjoyable, Jason. Thank you.
Does the Distant Drum rose have a fragrance?
My nose isn't the best, but I get a bit of a licorice scent from it.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thank you, Jason. I had that rose years ago, but it didn't survive, so I wondered. It's a very elegant rose.
What zone are you in that your salvias are perennials? We tend to lose them every year in zone 5. Can you use alfalfa pellets as a fertilizer for garden plants or is it best for flowers?
We're zone 8, so the nemerosa varieties are all fully cold hardy here. I find alfalfa pellets do a nice job across a wide range of plants sort of a 2-1-2 equivalent, so fairly balanced.
