Excellent, excellent, excellent ! Just saved this video. What would we do without you ?
I love your teaching methods! The articulate words and logic are very easy to understand. Thank you so much for the uploads.
Thanks you so much. A perfect 10! No need to look anywhere else if you want to successfully plant a rose. Love your other videos, too. SERIOUSLY, one of the best Internet videos I have ever seen. Thanks again for taking the time to teach. It's indispensable...so professional!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks so much for the encouragement Alan
I'm so glad you created this video - I'm putting 5 bare root roses in the ground today, and the vendor's advice was woefully incomplete. Thank you! Edit: the vendor gave both soil level and 2-3" below soil level for where to place the crown. I'm so glad you addressed that; I understand the reasons much better now!
Thanks Maggie
Great video, Jason.... thank you....just a few thoughts about both planting deeper for a grafted rose and "wind-rock".... in colder zones (5 and lower) we can have a freeze-thaw situation when winter turns to spring, snow melts and the soil surface begins to thaw... if the rose experienced 'wind-rock", where cold, severe winds can move taller canes in unprotected areas - (no tree leaf cover) as the soil is beginning to thaw, any small cracks or small openings in the soil around the crown can fill with water... a late ground frost or freeze can stay for a few days, adding ice to those crevices, splitting the graft leaving it open to insects or more damage... hence the advice to plant the graft a few inches below the surface of the soil. That same freeze-thaw cycle can also lift the crown, leaving the rose even more vulnerable to wind, small critters snacking on tender new growth or more splitting of the graft when ice expands in those cracks. So perhaps planting advice will depend on hardiness zone, garden location and how winters affect roses.
I have heavy clay which I have been amending over the last 15 years so that the top 20cm is very good wormcasts, but it soon becomes swampy lower down in winter, but is like hard clay or dust in summer. I used to follow advice to plant the crown below the soil - but EVERY variety of rose I had rotted - the branches turned black and died back. None ever self rooted. I have started planting at the crown level and they are now thriving. I guess it depends on your soil. If i had a more free draining soil I would plant deeper, but with heavy soils I suggest at the soil level or just above, and mulch around the crown.
Thanks for that insight - and a warning to those with less-than-perfect winter drainage!
Completely right. The soil composition is hugely important when deciding how to deep to plant a grafted rose:
Jason, you are the best.
Growing my 1st roses this year and this answered a lot of my questions! Thanks for the great vid
As always my rose hero! I just accidently ordered a bare root rose. You're the best place to come for advice
Thanks Jason, the main reason i was searching was due to conflicting advice of depth of the crown. you not only addressed the issue but did so with absolute comprehensiveness. Loved all your arguments and your personal choice as well. thanks once again and will be watching more to learn further about roses. This will be my first ever planting roses in Nov, wish me luck :-)
Best of luck with your new roses! And thanks for the feedback.
Jason, you are the best! Great informative video from a pro!
Thanks so much Ellie
I love Roses and love learning about them and You are the best . thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with all of us.
Thanks Mindy - always nice to hear from another rose lover!
Thank you so much! Just ordered some roses for spring!
Thank you! I have a new bare root rose that’s going in the ground tomorrow.🌹
Nice! What variety did you get?
Fraser Valley Rose Farm David Austin double delight hybrid tea. I have had good luck with them in the past🌹🤞thank you for all of your great videos
Thanks so much. I just planted my first root rose. I canton wait to see the results.
Best rose channel in English!
Thank you!
Can't thank you enough. Will definitely shop Amazon using your links.
Thank you for the information, I found it helpful. June 10th is our supposed last frost date. We live at 3700 ft in a Douglas fir and pine forest. We have heavy clay and rock, and hard freeze for a long while. We've put in raised and no dig beds. The no dig beds are incised our high tunnels and our raised beds have A-frame cols frame lids. I'm planing on planting 2 climbing roses into 22 " high 4x4 raided beds. They bloom July - Oct. They will grow over the arch we place between the 2 raised beds. Ill be growing a white clematis along with the roses. I plan to use a sandy compost we got 2 yards of that I mix pealrite and peat moss and some native topsoil into, and since the compost is already mostly sand, I won't add anymore sand. I have a few bags of ( In Ground planting mix) for planting tress and shubs in the ground, its black and crumbly. After watching this video I wnat to go dig up all of the new shrubs, Azaleas, blueberries and one rose I've planted and put rhem into raised beds. Not a look I would hoped for tho. We live in the woods. My husband digs deep wide holes I fill with that mixture for most of our plantings. The bare root roses I have are in plastic tubs with lids, and beginning to leaf out while all cozy in a high tunel. We still get in the high 30s and low 40s at night. We could still get snow, hail, frost, and all other bad weather.
Good teacher. Thank you
Very helpful, I'm a newbie so thank you very much!
I agree with your reasoning. I would do the same. My soil unfortunately is a lot of clay so before I plant anything I would get a bag of top soil and mix it with some compost from my own compost bin.
Thank you so much. Learned a lot. I will take my knowledge and share with others. Juli in Tucson 🌵🌵🌵
My pleasure Juli - have a great gardening season!
Great video! Thank you for the info!!
Thank you this was very helpful
Thank you so much! I had never buried my grafts, and have never lost any rose due to cold, but after seeing a video with Michael Marriot and Paul Zimmerman encouraging everyone to bury the grafts, I thought maybe I must have lucked out since I'm in a cold zone (7a, had been 6b). So this year I buried all of my grafted roses, but they are only just below the soil surface. Hope I didn't make a mistake :/
No, I don't think it's a mistake - a little low (or a lot low in a colder climate) isn't going to hurt the rose at all. I get away with "at or near" the surface in my climate, but still mound over if expecting cold weather and I'm worried about the variety.
Thanks - great video!
Good video! There is definitely some flexibility in some of this, the Syracuse Rose Society plants a few hundred bare rooted roses each year, and the plants are blooming like crazy starting from the first year with our method (we have to do this because we are zone 5). 1) Bud Union exactly 2" below ground level (The reasoning not to have the scion take root, but to protect SOME of the scion from the bitter cold winds if there happens to be no snow cover in the winter, there is something to grow back. Sometimes we don't want the scion to root- like with gallicas, never heard the idea of wind-rock before. ) 2) We throw in a cup or two of bone meal and a quart of "pro mix" mixed into the ground soil to refill the hole. 3) Tamped down gently with a foot, there is always a pile of soil heaped up around the plant at first before it gets a chance to settle, and also because of the volume of the pro mix and amendments. This pile protects crown from those frosts the first month after planting which is done 4) 1 to 2 months before last frosts, we have even planted roses when there has been snow on the ground! and 5) As much sun as possible! (Some parts of the garden aren't getting the 6+ recommended, unfortunately and they do suffer for it, We try to get the city to take down as many old tree limbs as we can)
Thanks Kimberly. Always good to know how folks in other areas approach planting. Does your club do any other surface mulch?
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Yes, they starting mulching several years ago, it caused a rift because a couple of old timers didn't agree with all the labor involved, felt it was not needed. There is a major bindweed issue, it hasn't helped. It is shredded (fir?) bark.
I totally agree with your advice & thinking on planting bare root roses. Mike in Australia
Thanks Mike!
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Hi, I know nothing about cold climate rose growing but noted that some suggest the crown be buried due to cold. I agree with you that the crown be just at or marginally above soil level to see the scion attachments but not high enough to expose the root. I suggest & favour a good layer of quality straw mulch (needs to be 100% pure otherwise weed seed introduced) on the soil is of benefit since it serves many purposes such as moderation of very hot or cold soil temperatures, cold temp protection to crown maybe if around base of scions, improves soil water penetration, increases microbial & biological activity as it decays, etc. Mulching very popular in Australia. But another good benefit, can easily be removed from around base to check on scion & unknown shoot origins (your point). Cheers, Mike
When I plant roses or all most any plants in the ground I dig my hole fill it with water let it soak in put my plant in add some Soil then add water then let it go down around the roots then top it off with soil then Firm the soil in my hand around the base That is the Web start to do it I'm not arguing with you I do appreciate your Opinion knowledge and experience and will in to learn all that you can teach you! And thank you for all you share with us!
Thanks for sharing your method Ron
Fantastic as always thank Jason. Maggie Australia
Thanks Bud!
Came here after ordering from a vendor that didn’t include any planting information. Thank you
Thank you!
When picking a location, if you've had a rose die in the same location prior to when you want to plant, you need to consider why the original rose died. Some diseases persist in the soil for a few years after the plant dies.
Thanks - good point!
Check the rose's root system thoroughly before planting. My first roses died from root rot, I had my suspicions at the time but also had no clue the severity, the place where I bought them kept them too wet. I just planted more roses this spring a few feet away from the old ones and they looked great and are growing good. I thought I lost one of them when my dog broke of a stem but I put fence around them and gave them more water and now they're thriving. I did put rose food in the hole and mixed it in.
Also, you need to make sure the bare root rose you are planting-you are spreading out the roots in the hole. The roots can choke the rose out. I've made this mistake in the past, but only made the mistake once.
Great video, i personally prefer to plant roses with grafting crown at least 6 inches above soil, and its doing great for me, i have almost 200 different rose varities with same planting method in pots and soil..
Thanks - I definitely won't argue with success! Interesting though, I've taken far more criticism from those who think the crown should be planted much lower in the soil. Again, whatever works for them - I just like to be able to keep my eye on the graft union.
Thank you very much!
Jason thanks for your opinions.really makes sense.I followed instruction to plant rose in the ground and covered the crown.Initially it appears to grow healthy and quite quick to take off ...But then i realized that it was suckering and the blooms are very different from actual rose i ordered.i ended up taking it out of the ground and removing the sucker.
Oh no - so annoying! I'm glad you caught them early Lily!
it seems stunted in growth now. i wonder if that is because of the suckering???
well explained
Thank you! You explain planting roses so clear and easy to understand.
I want to work for your nursery! I love Roses!
Very informative. You ans. all my questions. Wondering if some the same info would relate to Tree Peony’s. A few of mine, through the years have reverted
In Australia they(the Growers/Retailers) say to plant them at the previous ground level(usually around 2 or 3 inches above the Soil at a minimum) that it was at prior to sale.
I live in Ottawa and I planted several roses with the bud union few inches below the soil (4-6 inches). The results are great ! They keep coming back and flower every year ! Some they die all the way back to ground and they grow from the buried canes. The only problem. Have is the Japanese beetles! They are troublesome in July and August
Thanks for the video !
Thanks so much. Yikes - Japanese beetles. They're not in our area (yet, and knock wood!)
Look up "milky spore", it is a natural way to kill the beetles and the effects last for many years!
Kimberly OBoyle thanks but I am wondering if this is available in Canada 🇨🇦
I have an Issac Madera rose struggping to grow hope she made it I had her for yrs
A lot of what you presented, I and my mother always did. The question of depth though might be a sticking point, but your suggestion is worth following. I will be planting a 36", bare root tree rose once it gets shipped to me, in a pot. I currently rent and may be moving at the end of the year and would want to take the rose tree with me. I had purchased the Dr. Earth potting soil mix for roses for this purpose. What else can you suggest in potting a rose tree? For non-rose tree roses, have you used rose cones at the end of the season? I live in northern Wisconsin so our winters tend to be a bit brutal.
Sellers in my area don't offer the choice between own-root vs grafted roses. I'd prefer own root as I assume the'd suffer less in cold winters. BTW the main reason most roses are grafted has more to do with being easier/cheaper to propagate them that way rather than wanting the rootstock to do something for the grafted cultivar as in the case of orchard treas.
Depending on who you ask. I agree that it's primarily a production decision, but then it's also marketed as a benefit. Many in Florida swear by a fortuniana rootstock as the only thing suitable for their soil (and other dispute it!). There are a handful of cultivars that are overall so weak on their own roots that they're better grown grafted - but those are exceptions. In my experience 95% plus of the roses I propagate own-root are eventually equal in vigor to their grafted counterparts.
You should also make a video on the most common mistakes
Thanks so much 🙏🙏🙏😂
👍
Would you recommend putting worm castings or composted cow manure on top of the planted rose hole for a slow release effect are wait until it has some root development ( months or weeks)
Thanks Duke - if it's composted manure, it's likely safe to add at the surface right away. I'd suggest you spread over a generous area around the planting hole - up to 18" radius perhaps, to improve the soil slowly over the entire eventual root zone of the plant. Mulch is great at this point too for maintaining regular moisture (roses adore consistent moisture).
Once again, thank you for this comprehensive explanation on how to plant a bare root rose. I just received 3 from D.A. The only thing you didn't cover is how long one should soak the bare root rose once received. They recommend at minimum 2 hours; but others say otherwise. As far as planting, some say below the crown, others at the crown. Also frustrating. I live in PA, Zone 7...and what you said makes sense, but their instructions say 2 inch below stem. And right now it's March 24th, so at your recommendation, I should not plant my bare root rose until after the last frost date. So what do we do in the meantime? Pot them up in peat moss and keep them indoors? I will take your recommendation for these three precious roses. Thank you again!
If somewhat dehydrated, a soak for a few hours or overnight would be justified, I think. But if the roots are plump and moist I'd go straight to planting.
Hi Jason, I hope you can give some advice. I bought bare root roses two months ago. A third are refusing to sprout and have started to turn black. Is there anything I can do to wake them up? I am in the tropics, nice and warm here. Given then seaweed extract too
Remaining two thirds are going well.
Ps. Last year had 90% success rate, did exactly the same thing
Hi Jason, Thank you for created this video, very useful and helping me decide what to do with my 81 roses that are coming in a few months.
I live in Southern California, I have very limited space so I plan to planted most of my shrub roses in the 5 gallon pot and let their roots find the way out from pot to the ground by themselves. I know people might said it is not a good idea but I have 10 roses that grow like that (by accident). And they are doing fine.(by the way I put them next to each other)
I do not know what consequences I will face after a few years from now, do you have any suggestions or recommendations?
Any advice I appreciated.
Thanks Inthura. I envy your growing climate. I've actually done pretty well with roses when their roots find the drain holes and root into the ground. Not a problem until I have to move them, and even then it's a pretty quick matter to find and trim the "escapee" roots.
Thank you Jason. I always come here for the expert advise/suggestions. My question is, which bloom sooner bare root or regular potted rose? If it's taking a few years for the bare roots, then I might reconsider. I'm in zone 7b in the US. Thanks for your advise
No - bare root roses don't take very long at all. A good quality bare root can grow and bloom strongly in its first year.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm that’s awesome thank you for you quick reply. I’ll be looking out for the bare roots in our local nurseries.
Great information. No a fan of the grafted roses. While you might get good flowers for a few years, the top dies off and then you have the root stock coming on and those are not the flowers you were expecting. Had this happen in 3 roses planted in my mom's garden and had to deal with digging them up.
Thanks Liz. I feel your pain! Own-root is my preference. There are just a few roses that I love to grow, but don't grow strongly on their own rootstock so I'm sort of stuck with grafted.
Hi Jason and others in the rose community. Thank you all for the wealth of knowledge shared. I do have one question to ease my worries. Planting bare roots in containers - should I start with smaller containers and then up pot? Or is it ok to start with the final pot? Im more familiar with house plants and up potting too big too fast causes severe water logging.
Bare root roses can progress pretty quickly to (nearly) their final size, so a little extra volume in the pot isn't such a problem for them. Manage the watering accordingly.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm thanks Jason!
Question for yah as we approach the next bare root planting season--David Austin recommends sprinkling mycorrhizal fungi on the roots of their roses before covering with soil. Should this be a common practice/recommendation for all bare root roses when planting? I'm similarly of the mind that roses will better adapt to their new environment without adding amendments up front.
Hi Sabrina. I'd be happy to add a mycorrhizal inoculant to the planting hole - I don't go out of my way to do so, but it's not a bad idea. I made a video on soil sickness/rose replant disease, and the researcher I interviewed for the topic did recommend inoculants of this sort (to reduce the risk).
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Fantastic, thanks for your reply! Will definitely check out that video! :)
Hi love the video. Is it normal
for the leaves to wilt after planting a gene boerner bareroot? Also how long do these kid usually last? I also have a iceberg bareroot and wondering how long they last. thanks
Yes, a bit of wilt is normal - go with generous watering because of the root disturbance. Most grafted roses can be productive in the garden for in the range of 10 years. Own-root can go much longer if well managed.
Hey Jason, thanks for this video! I am out here in Newfoundland, zone 5b. Our last frost is usually mid-June. My question is about the quality of my soil in a particular area of my property. Our property is on a slope, the ground on which I plan to plant a rose hedge has recently been landscaped and formed into 2 benches to work with the natural slope. We planted veggies in the soil a couple yrs ago and they didn’t do well the first year. The second year we got a load of mixed soil and planted the veggies in that, we had an awesome yr on veggies last year as a result. I don’t think the soil is as hard as it once was due to the landscaping as it was dug out and formed into a bench. But I’m worried about the quality of the soil. It is very heavy and definitely clay (I can see grey colour of the clay mixed thru). The only thing I have grown in terms of flowers in the area are some wildflowers I transplanted along the edge of the bench. Lupins. And I use a natural locally made fertilizer on all my plants which makes them grow bananas (kelp and fish fertilizer). I am planning on continuing that to improve the soil but I’m wondering if the soil will be good enough to plant roses? Do you have any tips on identifying that? I will say the drainage looks good, as it is on a bench and the slope is right below. I have other roses planted on a slope a few feet (maybe 20) down from the area I’m talking about planting these new roses and they grew very well. They were hybrid teas, peace & home and family. I have roses in another part of my garden (a couple of drift roses and some floribundas) and they are doing great too. The drift roses are also in what I thought to be very poor soil. It’s kind of confusing because the veggies didn’t do well before we got better soil and that’s around where I want to plant the rose hedge. The veggies are on the higher bench and the roses would be on the lower bench.
Great question - and it sounds like you're thinking of all the right things. First up on clay would be drainage, and it sounds like you've got that covered. Next thing I'd say is that most roses appreciate a soil on the heavier side (even clay) because it maintains more consistent moisture and holds onto nutrients better. A sandy or alkaline soil would worry me much more. Given that you've grown some roses already in the area and they did well, I'd say you're fairly safe - especially as you plan to continue soil improvement.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Awesome, thanks for your response! Feeling better about it now! 👍🌹
I am going crazy because my husband keeps planting the new bought Roses crown above the ground. As we watering the Rose's, the soil around it kind of flushed away a little bit,and the small roots exposed, I recently relocated a David Austin climbing rose, the new buds and even some stems just died right after, I dont know how to save that beautiful rose 😭
Thank you Jason for the great video! I was hoping to get some advice. I’m planning on purchasing about 3 climbing roses to cover a wall on my home. I live in zone 4 and the wall faces south. I have been researching a lot and using the help me find website but every time I find one suited to zone 4 I find not great reviews. So I find myself unable to make a decision... Anyhow does anyone have a recommendation? Thank you so much!!!
Hi Jenny. 'New Dawn' gets a little black spot in my climate (moist coastal area) - but is a classic choice for a hardy climber. I grow 'John Davis' and it's okay as a small climber. 'Henry Kelsey' is from the same breeding program, and is a nicer color (according to my personal taste). 'Complicata', 'Alchymist', 'American Pillar' and 'Madame Plantier' are worth a look if you don't mind once-bloomers. I'll be interested to see recommendations from cool-climate gardeners.
Fraser Valley Rose Farm. Thank you for the advice. I was also considering New Dawn. Also at the top of my list is Iceberg. Maybe I will try both! Thanks again Jason 🤗
Thank you for all your great videos. Now I really need help to decide whether to replant my bare root David Austin roses. I had made couple mistakes when planting them 7 days ago. One of which is that instead of spreading their roots out, I actually spawn the whole plant so the long roots formed spiral shape to fit in holes. Is it going to benefit or damage my roses if I dig them up for replanting? Or is there a different way to fix them?
I think you're still in the window before the plant has sent out a lot of new roots, so if you take it up gently, I think it'll be fine.
Your reassurance brought me peace! I replanted 3 yesterday and going to fix the rest in the following couple days. Now I feel much better! Thank you so much!🌹💕
I am planting several Kazanlik roses. I would like to establish them as climbers. Do you have a video that talks about climber roses - how to prune, how to winterize them, etc.?
Hi Angel. 'Kazanlik' is super hardy, so depending on your climate, they're pretty safe. Here's a video I did on training climbers: ruclips.net/video/5EZirmc4h3I/видео.html
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thanks!
What do I do if I received my bare root roses 8 weeks before my last frost? Can I leave them in their packages? They have already started to bud out. Do I need to plant them in temporary potting soil pots? If I have to pot them, can I leave in my garage (stays cool, but no frost, with little light that comes in from garage window?)
This close to the finish line, the first question I'd ask myself is "how hard a frost?" - we're about 5-6 weeks from expected last frost here, but the night temps are only occasionally dropping below freezing. There's no serious risk to the health of a bare root rose planted at these temps, so hands down I'd plant it (here). You know your own climate best, so you'd have to make that call. If you decide the outdoor weather still has too much risk of deep cold (or the ground is frozen, etc) I like your idea of potting loosely in a cool place like the garage until you're ready to go.
Jason, I’m in Missouri with a last frost date of mid May. How should I store my bare root roses until that time? Today is April 11.
Hi Janet. How are the temperatures in your area between now and then? Is the soil workable? Bare root roses are held dormant in cold temperatures before they come to you, and they'd be fine with a light frost after planting. My last frost date is end of April but I would have zero hesitation to plant bare roots in the landscape today - we'll probably have some cold nights this month, but nothing so damaging that I'm worried about a bare root rose.
I just received a bare root rose tree. Would the crown depth still apply? Do you have any more pointers for rose trees?
Hi Jennifer - yes, I'd still go with the bottom "crown" (or union) at around the soil level. I did a recent video on the pruning of standard roses: ruclips.net/video/PpauYSfi8-4/видео.html
I planted multiple bare root David Austin in my garden last week. I live in Toronto. When should I expect to see new leaves? I’m scared I might have killed them already (I don’t have the best of green thumbs)
Don't panic. Unless you've seen the stems turn black or mushy, the most likely thing is that they're just taking their time to wake up.
I have a question. Should I trim off any of the new shoots when i plant bare root roses so it can focus on establishing its roots?
No, I'd let shoots and leaves develop to provide energy. I might nip of some flowers in the first year (but usually don't even bother with that).
My nursery pruned my bare root rose in front of me to show me how to encourage a good shape. I’d like to have taken him home with me to prune my other bare rooted ones that I purchased elsewhere and was not advised to prune. What’s your opinion about pruning immediately before planting a bare root rose? He also is an inch above ground planter which seems to work here in Sth Australia . However I am in a new home planting a new garden and unfortunately didn’t watch you first so I have amended my soil with bags of garden soil and bagged cow manure from garden centre and mixed in with native soil if it was good enough or if too many stones I put more bagged soil.
Hi Sharon. I only prune to remove any obviously dead/damaged roots or stems. Otherwise, I leave the shaping and cleanup for after the plant gets established.
Should we keep my 1-year-old bare root roses in the greenhouse? Is it affected by the cold outside?
By the time they're 1 yr old, the rose should be well enough established to tolerate the cold in the landscape according to its hardiness rating (and your climate). If they're in containers anyway, and your climate gets deep cold, I often like to move the roses to a sheltered place once they've gone dormant.
Hi can I plant 3 rose bushes together so that it looks like one bush with multi coloured flowers. Barry
It's not the way I would recommend - in close proximity, usually one rose will dominate, and the others will decline. The crowding gives way to poor air circulation and foliar disease.
Thank you for the excellent video. I love Double Delights Rose but they do not grow well and die after 2 years, what should I do with these varieties.
Thanks David. Sadly I've also struggled with Double Delight - it doesn't do well for me on its own roots, and doesn't last many years grafted. I still keep replacing it in the garden because of its exceptional flowers. A low prune each spring seems to help with vigor, and it responds well to fertilizer.
I would like to visit your nursery.
Good to hear! We're hoping to have some opening hours posted in early 2022.
Hi Jason, just a little question if planting a rose shrub in the corner can i leave a distance of 18 inches from both walls or is it too short as the plant mature width is 4 feet. Because if i leave 2 ft from each wall it looks a little far to me initially when the plant is very young. Thanks
I'd probably feel a little more comfortable with 2ft myself. I'm sure you could manage it either way, but later on that might be a little tight.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thanks a lot 👍
What should we do for the wax on top of the plant?
Hi Robin. You don't need to do anything with the wax. It's there because the supplier thought it would help to retain moisture in the stems. New shoots grow right through it.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm thank you 😊 for replying 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 happy holidays
How soon will growth show after planting? Now I am literally just watching it and unsure if it went well.
I know this won't help, but it varies A LOT. Some of these roses have been kept for extended periods in the cooler, and are reluctant to break dormancy. So long as the stems remain green and plump, and the buds remain red, you're still on track.
I bought potted rose but it was a field grown rose and all soil fell of very easily when I took it out of the pot. Not many side shoot roots and what was were short. It has some new shoots but to me they all look dead. How long time can it take before it should start to show growth? It’s been very mild and sunny with 15C in the shade the last week and soil temps are clearly on the rise.
Have a look at the color of the stems. If they're green and firm, there may still be hope. Sometimes it's difficult to tell at the base (because of older woody growth) but you can give it a little scrape with your blade, and if it's green underneath, that's a good sign.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Is it worth while to prune it a little to encourage growth or better just to let if figure out what lives and dies (as you have said let the rose figure it out).
Will my bare root rose grow? I didn’t trim it.. first time doing bare root
Crossing fingers, yes. I usually don't have too many problems with bare root roses breaking dormancy. This year I'm keeping an eye on a few of them that have me worried, but I won't give up while the stems are still green and the roots are still plump and firm.
Hi, Sir.. this might silly question..Sorry. How long does 'bare root rose' survived in the box (courier)?.. im waiting for mine to arrived.. it been a week now..
If it's dormant and the temperatures are cool, I bet you have nothing to worry about. When it arrives, have a look for any signs of mold or rot (soft tissue, black color) - but if it's firm and green (brown on the roots) you're good to go.
Not clear what to do with a bareroot rose which has put quite a lot of white new growth which can burn in the sun!?
Like shoots that have been in dark storage too long? White, long, thin? There's no great solution for it. Plant your rose in a pot maybe, and place in a sheltered (from wind & too much sun) location until it begins to put on some healthier growth
I hope someone can answer this if I'm not too late! Okay so if I planted my roses in the ground with amendments & bone meal (and I hope not, but, possibly over fertilized) what should I do to fix it? I noticed my dog's leash getting caught around one of my roses and it moved all over the place! Anyone! Please tell me what to do! Also, I live in a suburb area of Phoenix AZ. Can't remember if I'm 9B or 10B but I'm one of the Bs
First thing: don't panic. Bone meal doesn't release nutrients very quickly, so I don't think your rose is in any immediate danger from that. I don't have enough information to say much else. It depends of what else you put in the planting hole, how much, and how long the rose has been planted. It would take some time for the rose to anchor into the ground in any case, so it wouldn't be surprising to see a newly-planted rose move around a bit.
So I looked it up and I'm 9B. But what I did was.. I dug a hole twice the root ball poured about 1 1/2 gallons of Kellogg Amend soil for each of my 5 roses and gave them a good watering. A couple weeks later I added half a teaspoon of Super Thrive & a tablespoon of fish fertilizer per gallon of water and watered my roses as normal. 1-2 wks later I added about a half cup of bone meal to the soil mixture and mixed it into the soil a good 4-6 inches down. And I read that bone meal won't do much unless there's at least some acidity to the soil so I added a recipe of 1tbs of apple cider vinegar per gal water and poured just about 2c to each rose. I'm hoping I didn't over do it. 😬 I just love roses so much.. I hope I don't love them to death!
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm BTW thanks for getting back to me right away.. especially at this hour!
That doesn't sound too bad. I'd stick to straight water from this point until you see they're putting on strong new growth. You can always add more later if you see the growth is pale or weak.
Bone meal warning: high level of phosphorus will inhibit growth of mycorrhizal fungi.
What made me confusing, all my roses seem like stop growing, every after prune, new shoot so weak
Sorry to hear it Bondan - how long have they been in?
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm there all grafted, 1-2 years now
@@BondanHeru thanks. If you're satisfied with the sun exposure, soil and moisture in the site, you may want to wait a bit longer to see if they improve with time. Some roses do take a whole to find their legs. Have you mulched and fertilized?
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm my rose half shade, I'll try under full sun soon. My potting medium using rice chips and compost, I think can hold moisture. I remember early time planting roses on 1 year have no problem, after some disaster 2 days heavy rain non stop and all my roses died. After that I never have healthy roses growing till now.
Hello! Can I Plan the Roses in container? What type of rose? Can I order from you?
Hello Jason 🤗 Can you take cuttings successfully from a grafted rose? Thank you ☺️
Yes. Sometimes the scion (top) variety is weak on its own roots, but in most cases I've tried, it's worked out fine.
