Overwintering

Thanks for helping us out with that rose cutting earlier in the year @wiseowl

Do I need to do anything special for it overwinter, should it stay in the greenhouse?

 

I'll be interested in the answers to this as well. I have some plants that I would like to overwinter - though probably in a dark corner of my garage as the greenhouse goes well below freezing once I shut the heat off.

 

How tall is it Zigs and how big is the pot it's in please?

 

It's about a foot long, and the rose is in a 5 inch pot

 

I think I'd keep it in the greenhouse, because it's still in a small pot it's likely to get frosted outside. Is it a climber Zigs?

 

Will do then Sheal, ta

No idea, it wasn't climbing when I bought it from Morrisons

Just had a thought, i'll re pot it into a see thru container, stop it getting pot bound

 

The leaf formation makes me think it's a climber, I don't suppose you've still got the label?

Don't re-pot it yet @Zigs, it'll be best left now until it's dormant (leafless), then I would suggest re-potting and a prune.

 

Is that a proposition!

 

Ooer folks,

Get your hats out ladies and your best suits gents.

I think we're all gonna be invited to the first Gardeners Corner Wedding

 

I don't think so Anthony!

 

If it's used to the greenhouse can i suggest u leave it there untill spring? Then I'm all for pampering my roses lol
