Thankyou Olga, I grew roses so easily years ago in Central California. I have lived in Missouri now for the last 20 years. I have grown a few roses here and learned a few devastating lessons. But have decided to dedicate myself to have my rose gardens again. Thankyou so much for your sharing knowledge with us.
Just discovered your channel, you’re so informative and helpful! Love your easy-natured and personable approach to teaching us novice rose gardeners how to successfully cultivate beautiful and healthy roses. Much love!
don't be afraid to grow roses in pots in cold winters, I'm in Poland, we get in winter up to -15 depends on the region but I keep my roses outside anyhow I cover them with white agrotextile and they should not stand on the bare grand, they are complete fine, regards
Have you heard of “frost-proof” potting containers? Ive seen people talking about getting frost proof terracotta containers for roses. I live in zone 5b in the Midwest.
Hello Olga. I grow many roses, and most in containers because I have shallow soil over ledge. I have successfully overwintered my roses in containers by lining them up angled at 40 degrees towards the south and then covering them with shredded leaves so that the whole pot is covered. I live in coastal Rhode Island where recently the nighttime temps dropped to 6 degrees! All the roses are still alive. By coraling them in the fenced in vegetable garden they look orderly and are actually very beautiful when covered with snow. I really enjoy your videos, especially since most rose video presenters are coming from the UK or the south and west of the U.S. It's nice to have someone who is well based in science, has an average sized garden and is pragmatic. Please keep these coming. Perhaps you could address the pruning of roses in containers for a humid climate. Thank you very much! Victoria V. Wakefield, RI
Thank you, Victoria, for your thoughtful message. Would you, by any chance, be willing to send me pictures of your protected roses? I can ask everyone to contribute photos of their way of dealing with cold winters and potted roses, and can do a video about them. Another great way to learn from each other…
Dear Olga I'm not very computer facile . I'm trying to send you pictures but the app keeps telling me that no such person is in my addresses. I will keep trying. Victoria@@OlgaCarmody
Olga. I see you provide your email address here. I have planted 3 roses in large pots one month ago. I have several questions as I think I have done everything wrong and want to gently fix without hurting my roses. I will send email with my concerns. Thank you for this video. You have saved me from losing my roses.
Fantastic video! I don’t know how i missed this one earlier!! I have two boscobel & two desdemonas to try out in pots this year. Zone 3/4. This was so helpful bc i was going to transfer them into one ginormous pot (each) 🤦🏻♀️ and i have black pots. Yikes!
Hello , rose lovers! I am about to purchase a David Austin Rose as a gift for my daughter's 7th birthday. I am planning to have it planted in a pot, on the balcony on the East. We live in the Netherlands where summers are not super hot and winters are not too harsh. I have not cared for a potted rose before and I have a few questions. Any advice would be much appreciated. For my container of 40 cm x 40 cm how much water should I use so that the roots get enough water? I am at total loss: should it be a few cups or a few liters? And how often should I water it in a warm season? And the last one: how often and how much water should a potted rose receive if left on the balcony in winter time? Thanks for reading through this and do know that your help is much appreciated.
Hi Miruna, You water when you see the dry soil. Just put your finger into the pot and feel it. Water to the point of seeing it coming out of holes underneath. I am going to use your message and build a video around it for beginner gardeners. Thanks.
So many thanks for your answer! I am looking forward to your video. Please if possible use a measuring system while making this video, just to give a rough estimate of how much water is needed. Also waterin in the winter is my worst fear. How much how often? Again, many thanks for taking the time to answer!
Hello, Really helpful knowledge and advice, thank you. I wonder if you would do some videos actually demonstrating planting, fertilizing, pruning, how to take cuttings from established roses to grow more etc?
I’m new to your channel I’ve found you very informative! I just purchased Jacob’s coat climbing roses you answered a lot of my questions.Thank You for sharing 🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽
Thank you for sharing this video! I garden too and I’m trying to research all the things I can grow in containers. This is very helpful. Thanks for teaching me something new. I hope we can learn more from each other as we grow our gardens and our RUclips channels!
Hi Olga, thank you for very thorough coverage of the topic. I leave in NY 7B and this winter we had 12F for a week. I was thinking on planting 3 roses in the same 20"-24" stone or cement composite container and would NOT be able to bring it inside to protect from freeze. Do you think covering container with blankets would protect roots? Also, natural material large containers are so expensive, would you know where stone or cement container could be purchased for reasonable price? Thank you for your lessons and good luck with your new program you are working on.
Hi there, 12F for a week will damage rose roots in containers. You can try to protect them with blankets and keep them open sheltered conditions. The only way to find out is to try with cold hardy roses. As for containers, no good suggestion here, they are super expensive but not because of manufacturing cost, but shipping. I am planning to do my own containers in the future, maybe this early spring. Good luck and happy gardening!
Loving the avice but I live in central Texas and hot summers and no rain during months of July Aug September .. it's hard to get them to grow .. Knock out roses work very good ... Raised beds yes but definitely have garden hose near by during summer ..
A lot of good information. I need to go ahead and place my David Austin rose order before they are all gone. With the weather hitting this part of the US so harshly, I have been hesitant. Yesterday 62 degrees, today sleet and heavy snow...that has been the "normal" every storm this year. Had more bad weather than I care for. God bless and keep you and yours.
I know, I was filming in a sweater, weather was great. Tomorrow we might have snow… Go ahead and order your roses sooner than later, DA is running low on roses.
@@OlgaCarmody I don't have any social media, my sister just called me to let me know we have blizzard conditions. The area I live in has major highway closures. 100 vehicles stranded and no movement expected for 8 hours as I reply. Prayers for everyone to be safe.
I have 3 DA bareroots on order and 1 is destined for a very large container, Lady of Shalott. I’m new to rose gardening and trying to learn good care to help the roses be happy. So this is a very helpful topic. What are your thoughts on wrapping the container in burlap during the coldest part of the winter for cold zones like 6? Thank you.😀
I want to do a video on everyone’s photos of their potted roses in winter. This way we can learn from each other. I am skeptical about burlap around pots. May I offer the idea of protected area from cold winds with blown leaves around pots?
@@OlgaCarmody Good idea. I’ve seen people protect their hydrangeas by surrounding their pots with chicken wire to hold the leaves. Or maybe line the inside of the rose planter with bubble wrap or a large plastic bag with cuts on the bottom for drainage? You have a great idea on learning how people have successfully protected their roses in containers over the winter. It would apply to hydrangeas as well.
Just found this video and love it already. You are soothing to listen to and the info was exactly what I needed for trying to grow roses in a pot. I am California zone 9b so cold doesn't apply but heat and micto hot climates in the yard def do. Great content. Subscribing! Xx
Another excellent video in every way with lots of great information. Very interesting point on the newspaper vs pebbles for drainage, I had no idea of that. Last year was our first time planting roses in pots. 3 David Austin's Lady Emma Hamilton, bare root, 2 in huge ceramic containers, one in a ceramic container around half the size. I'm only commenting to point out as you rightfully said make sure to find good potting soil meaning without food and feed it yourself. In our small city of Wilmington NC none of the big box stores had potting soil with no food but we found it at an independently owned small garden center. Please pray for us as we get these roses out of the containers and planted in the ground :)
You will be fine, roses are ready to thrive in spring! And you garden in zone 8, no worries about pots in winter, lucky you. One year I will go ahead and buy Lady Emma Hamilton, I consider it a very strong character Rose, with those dark new shoots. Happy gardening, don’t break your back during replanting!
@@OlgaCarmody Thank You Olga! I did worry since it was our first in pots. Got them in the garage, they never lost their leaves, threw some new growth and even 2 blooms:) Thank you for the instruction since I was afraid. The other new potted roses stay outdoors next year!!
I have a miniature rose, they survived outside in a small plastic pot., I'm in zone 8b. They have their leaves even winter and frost. It is my first year having them and my first two rose plants and I'm happy to see them thriving..
I love your advice. You are so organized and knowledgeable. I've kept a DA rose in a container in my garage this winter (got it BR last year, couldn't decide where to plant it) and am ready to introduce it to the elements again. I hope it thrives. I probably didn't do it any favors with my indecision. I'm in Zone 4b, Minneapolis. I did water it a few times during the frozen season.
Goodmorning Ashley, I need u recommend on 3 gallon david austin rose lady shalot ,I want to grow in pot,may I know how how big is the pot should I use.thanks
Thank you for your very clear explanations why and why not to do certain things with growing roses in containers---I have containers --big plastic ones with small holes at the bottom then they are right on top of its tray. The pot is not elevated from the tray. Is that okay? Then another question. I have bought in a hurry, the store was closing, and they had these big containers, with thick strong plastic. After I got them out of my car I noticed that they do not have holes at all. They were on sale and not returnable. The pots have double walls. The inner wall has a round drawing about 1 1/2 inches and and if I turn the pot over, there are holes that can be covered by 1 inch round plastic near the wall. and they are about 1 inch deep to the inner bottom. I can make a big hole (1 1/2 inches diameter in the center) and open all those holes at the bottom, would that be enough? I have bought something that I can put over that hole so the soil will not go through, a plastic netting, very thin. Or should I need to drill more than 1 hole, but smaller? Thank you very much for your answer. I live in zone 7A, so we do get snow and sometimes very cold. I just group them together when it is very cold, and cover with a blanket, take the blanket off in the morning----So pebbles on top of the soil in a container is not a good idea? Someone in England put pebbles or rocks on top, so cats of neighbors will not be able to scratch the soil--I do have at least 2 cats from my neighbors who always visit my backyard and do their business-----
Yes, miracle grow is good for containers. Brick house pink roses are compact floribundas and are very bushy. They shouldn't have any bare feet. They can't actually with such a short growing habit. Happy gardening!
I solve the large container issue by using grow bags. They dry out and drain far faster than normal pots and by keeping them propped up on stilts, it prevents them becoming root-bound with air pruning. Everything that uses them needs a little more watering, but it doesn't hurt the plants.
@@OlgaCarmody Any type of stand to sit the bags on. In my case, I make a triangle outline with three house bricks so there's a big gap in the middle and set the grow bags on top. This ensures that nothing grows from the bag into the ground and that there's enough air gap for the roots to air prune. I've had success with replanting fig trees in this manner as well, since they don't grow into the bag.
@LantanaLiz Bricks! What a great idea! I've been putting my grow bags on recycled wood pallets but it's not very attractive and limits placement. Also, I have only used them to grow veggies and never thought about roses in them. I think that will be helpful for my new, young roses until they are big enough to be homed in a decorative large pot. Thank you!!
Olga when buying roses for containers in cold climates choose roses that can handle 2 zones colder than your zone and you should be safe leaving them outside over the winter. You also can bury your containers in a raised bed for the winter.
Hi Dolly, I never attempted to do pots with hardy roses in them as you said. Do you have success with container roses (2 zones hardier) in your garden?
I don't grow roses in pots, since my winters are very cold, and I don't want to do heavy winter protection. In warm climates folks don't need to bury the graft union under the soil in pots.

Thank you. I was worried if we have some very cold winter days in South East US.
Have you heard of “frost-proof” potting containers? Ive seen people talking about getting frost proof terracotta containers for roses. I live in zone 5b in the Midwest.
I did see those gorgeous containers. They are definitely pricy. I have mixed feelings about them. Do you have any?
One of the best videos I've heard. I love the in depth explanations. Will check out your other videos.
On David Austin's webstie Lady of Shallot is offered as suitable for pots. Would you say it will not be? Will it have leggy lower part?
Thank you for your video, may I ask how often should we fertilize potted roses with slow release.
It all depends on the fertilizer. Check the label. Each fertilizer will have instructions on how often to apply it.

Do you bury the graft when planting roses in pots? If so, how deep?
I don't grow roses in pots, since my winters are very cold, and I don't want to do heavy winter protection. In warm climates folks don't need to bury the graft union under the soil in pots.
@@OlgaCarmody Aside from winter protection, doesn't burying the graft also make the rose sturdier and prevents swaying?
