Rose rescuers needed

Out of all my roses planted bare root last winter two have hardly grown at all :(
The roses around them are thriving and all have received feed and rose clear.
Do i lift them and give them some more tlc? If so how?
One is a Harkness Great North Eastern the other is Goldrush. They are literally a few cms tall with a few leaves.
Many thanks

 

Just read the wonderful woos post on pests and diseases and maybe there's something in soil inhibiting growth? I am going to lift them and plant them in clean compost and prune them as woo shows to prune bare root arrivals as that's how big they are :(

 

You cannot go far wrong taking WOO's advice he is the man with the knowledge on roses.

 

Were they planted in soil that had roses previously?

If not I don't have any other thoughts, sorry.

 

here they are lifted and re planted after w hard prune

 

hi woo
thanks for taking the time to reply. the weather has been very wet here :( the two roses with white labels are the ones i am worried about the other little babies are this years cuttings apart from the big beast at the end - lol.

they are in full sun now (if we get any) wilko multi-purpose compost, the pots took the roots with space planted like the picture shown in your planting roses post with the roots carefully lied out to the side of the rose rather than in a deep hole?

they were in med clay full sun in my back garden treated with rose feed and rose clear during spring and summer like my other roses.
can u see from the seccond pic the roses both have great roots but the stems are either brown or have stress marks on them?

I have cut them down now and am hoping they will survive :(

i bought some bone meal??
how can i dry the soil out i haven't got a greenhouse?

thanks kirsten - no roses in soil previously and i have had a good dig around this am no obstructions in soil like big bricks or anything.



this is great north eastern in the summer can u see how tiny the flowers were?

 

Thank u woo for your great advice i will get some jon innes no 3 re pot them and put them indoors. Thank u

 

They had a couple of stalks max 8 inches :/ some were dead one was green but with a brown patch and otjers had died down to bud i think. Talk about a steep learning curve :/

 

Thanks all the two poorly roses have started to sprout shoots! at last!

 

good evening woo fancy picking 3 hybrid teas for my front garden

gets the dr. hessayon book out...
