Roses

I take it that when you say (creeping) you are referring to Climbing RosesQuestion (1) YesQuestion(2) Climbing Roses you don't usually prune for the first 2/3 yearsQuestion(3)Deadheading will produce more blooms except but only on repeat climbing Roses and not Rambling Roses as a...

Sorry it was so delayed i forgot to update. Dont know where my brain is some days. It looks nothing like the pic on the website but hey ho

Good morning CharlieBox ,just give them a little time and TLC and I am sure they will be alright next year,please keep us updated

Good evening Barryman I do Summer prune depending on the Rose especially with vigorous English Roses, Summer pruning the more vigorous repeat flowering varieties after each flush of flowers can encourage better repeat flowering and will also limit the height of the rose. To summer prune, simply...

Good afternoon Jenjen the reason that they can only deliver in October/November is that all bare root roses are only available from October to March when they are in their dormant state,where as from April to September Roses are only available in a container(pot),and are difficult to find,Hope...

Good afternoon ,IMHO I think the damage is caused by the Cockchafer(May Bug) it is only that the leaf cutter Bee 99% of the time only eats from the outside of the leaf(this is only my personal opinion and it does not mean to detract from Yvonne;s probability at all which I respect greatly

Came across this rose yesterday and the bought it because the scent was really strong. It's a very deep red though and the label and all of the books I've looked at say it's a pink. There's only one bloom at the moment but it is fully open. I'm trying to decide where to place it and wondering...

Hi all thank you for your advice, I will try a photo later but as for the name I've no idea they are about 6 0r 7 feet tall I do trim them at least once a year but I will feed them after reading your most helpfull comments as they have never been fed they were planted as a wind break along a...

Hi Hetty your garden looks lovely my friend all cottage'y and comfy ,you should be proud at what you have achieved ,,your Rose looks just great my friend and thank you for sharing your garden with us

Brilliant info Woo Thank you.. I always love it when there is a little potted history with it..

Try them and see how you like it . If you don't like it , you can always give it away . Not a lot of things in life you can do trial and error without losing more than 15 quids ..

Hi Flower-Power the later the love the stronger it is,and Roses do grow on youRoses by Rochester Bridge

Welcome to GC Batyr. There are thousands of roses which would make it hard to track down yours but it is possible.Many roses fade in colour as the blooms age and I suspect this is what's happening. I noticed the rose has black spot, the leaves affected should be removed and either burnt or...

Hiya Olivier,I have a couple of 'wayward' shrub roses that I discretely 'prop' up mainly because I want to be able to stick my nose in them every time I pass but as Woo says it's not necessary as they can hold their own

They should survive ok but I'd forget about flowering for this year Just make sure the soil doesn't dry out in warm spells, or water weekly in dry periods. You can mulch the soil to conserve moisture.

They look healthy Loli! Looking forward to seeing them in bloom.

Good morning Hannah,Sheal,M,Loli.thankyou fro your kind and friendly comments,much appreciated my friends"M" Access is free to everyone if they wish just a donation box in the cathedral by the door------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ We...

Thanks for reply Hannah. I have attached a photo of one of my little "babies" if you can make out the rose from the other stuff!!. I just wanted to know whether by keeping them cut back in their first couple of years it helps form stronger roots/lower stems??Also, I see why you asked if I was...

I'm in Northumberland about 3 miles from the coast, I have removed the effected canes but it seems to be spreading :( Wouldn't care the flowers it has produced are stunning!

B@&*£ 'ell!!!!
