I really missed your videos. Please don’t let any internet trolls stop you from sharing your garden. There are many of us here who appreciate it and I enjoy your commentary.
Glad your back. If you are eligible for monetization, I definitely would enable it, even if its not why you’re on YT. Your videos are “evergreen” which means your video old videos are still relevant and you may be surprised how much you can make as residual income when you get video or a viral video 😉
Hi Lisa and thanks, I’ve genuinely no idea how much I might make but I’m guessing a few pennies per month for my tiny channel. But the main reason for keeping off the creater program was to try and keep adverts to my viewer to the minimum or non existent. When I looked at it you had to sign up to adverts or something or enable them in the videos something like that, and that I’m not keen on.
@@Jay_Jay I started with a few penny’s, then I had a viral video, that year I made over $100k USD from those ads. I literally bought a small car with my first month income after that viral video. I don’t make that now, but it’s more than a few pennie’s 😉. That viral video from 2021 still brings in most of my income.
im a Rosarian too like you .i live herein Asheville North Carolina i enjoy growing roses as much as you do ..Especially when you do it for the one you lost like my only daughter who died of hodgskin lymphoma. i
Jay Jay, Im so pleased you're back! You were missed for sure! I always look forward to your sweet " hello lovely viewer" it just makes my day happy. A stroll through your garden is inspirational and informative , even for me here from the 🇺🇸 Please keep it going. I can understand your stress with rabbits, I have them with deer.
Hi Sharla and thank you. “Hello lovely viewer” is not my idea. I once heard a lovely radio presenter say “hello lovely listener” and I thought it was so nice and like many things on RUclips I put a slight spin on it. But I don’t wish to claim credit. I hope your garden is coming along well.
Hi Jay, so pleased you decided to come back, I love your garden, so beautiful. I only started collecting David Austin roses last year and I find your video's really inspiring. Keep them coming.
Hi Val, glad you find them inspiring. Best of luck with your collection please keep me updated as to how you are getting on, everyone starts somehwere. ;)
Great to have you back! I'm sure I wasn't the only one concerned by your absence. As you say, your roses are looking fantastic. I watched your video with the closed captions on to avoid disturbing my wife, and good as the captions are, they are often unintentionally funny. The names of roses often defeat the system - we had "Basketball", "Rolled All", "Set to dial" also known as "Centered Aisle" - and people might wonder why "nothing else is in flour", and you say "I've planted 200 enemies". I have seen a small family of rabbits (or as CC calls them "Borrowers") in our adjoining field, but they seem to have only briefly visited our garden and nibbled very young plants thankfully. However, I've just been surverying the damage caused by heavy overnight rain - petals everywhere and heavy water-logged blossoms flattening stems to the earth. I noticed on my new Tranquillity (which I am liking) that a lot of heavy single blooms have snapped their short supporting stems. I was hoping to post a video about now, but I think I've missed the best window for the moment. You know I share your enthusiasm for Desdemona, Gabriel Oak and Eustacia Vye. You are such a sentimentalist planting Elizabeth for her spirit's enjoyment! - I actually bought Queen Elizabeth in memory of our late and wonderful Queen, so I'm the same! My autumn-planted bare root DA Elizabeth has surprised me by winning me over after I had been quite hesitant about her.in pictures. Mine looks paler than yours, maybe it's getting more sun, or maybe the colours change as the plant ages? She is my "happy rose" now - I find her very cheering to look at. Desdemona inspires awe and admiration for her mature elegant beauty and poise, but Elizabeth is just youthful exuberance bubbling over. The colours thing perplexes me in general. I dug up and potted Boscobel last autumn because I didn't like the colour (I know, what kind of philistine am I?), but this year I find her colour totally unobjectionable. She may go back in the ground. My beloved but disease-prone Abraham Darby has produced a good number of large attractive blossoms, but with an overall darker, redder than usual look, whereas a cutting I took from it has flowered almost pale pink. The pair of Sweet Honeys you recommended are flowering well in their first year - and I will not be at all disappointed if they grow to 6 foot. The 9? roses I bought (including the SH) from Parkers at crazy low prices are all surprising me with their growth and flowering - I think that after DA prices I was a bit snooty about roses that only cost a few pounds, but they are great! Queen of Sweden is an odd one - it puts me in mind of the Queen of Sweden inspecting her soldiers who are all standing to attention in close ranks, or a dense bamboo thicket. The Poet's Wife I struggle to like - I want a tall, large. prolific yellow rose to add a different colour to my main bed. The more orange Lady of Shalott will have to do for the time being. I have a Golden Celebration, but it hasn't been that impressive. The new DA Dannahue rose doesn't really tempt me, but who knows? Anyway, keep up the good work Jay Jay!
Hi nik thanks and do hope your well. We have noticed rabbits in the previous 3 years but this year they have struck. It is annoying. Yes Elizabeth for me is a rose with character I’ve said this before. There are perhaps better roses but I do like it’s colour, habit unusual foliage and the fact it’s a great flowerer. Throw in some very occasional powerful fragrance it has more personality:) only a name sake for our old queen of course but a nice touch still I think and wanted it at the front there. And boscobel is another of my favourites I do like the colour personally. Fantastic in my eyes. Perhaps because it’s a little unusual. My two at the front here must be over 5ft I know that because I’ve just propped them up a little to pull them back from the road and see they are only a touch shorter than Olivia to it’s right. I’ve no doubt your sweet honey will at some point Grow very well. Mine clearly needed to be back of border or at the end of the garden. I just hope we see an extra flush or two with less dormant gaps between flushes this year. With my no feed experiment this year I doubt much difference from last year. But she did almost flower in December with an odd flower here or there. Will look forward to your update nik and hope your garden is doing well.
Magnificent and delighted to watch. Boscobel looks improved from last year and stunning as well as Olivia. Uetersen has more buds and flowers than leaves and colour look great. Glad to see Mum in a Million in your collection, a fantastic and hardy rose. Mine is showing growth and bloom in 40 degrees Celsius temperature. Wow, you have added old rose Madame Alfred. Earth Angel has vigorous growth tendency and interesting to see how it vis a vis other parfuma collection. Lovely mate, have a good day.
Hi Rackesh and thanks. Yes Madame Alfred purchased maybe mid summer last year and this year doing very well indeed, just coming to end of first flush and second is as you see on the way! A lovely fragrance and flowers that last well over a week for me. I’ve zero doubt she will go front of house next year when a little bigger.
So pleased to see you back Jay, you really keep it real, thats why I love watching your channal. So bad to hear of what the Rabbits did. Indeed you have been missed.
Oh. As soon as I saw Rosemary Harkness, I almost melted! It's got my favourite colours of Golden Amber to a faded peachy pink. It will the next one I order online. Thank you. 😊
Yea a fantastic rose. A very sweet spot in my garden so I have two. One for the front and one for the back. Be careful where you order it from though. Direct from harkness I think they might still have labelling issues. If you see one in your local rose nursary in flower I’d snap it up. Magnificent performance in my humble but the flower to die for. :) good luck
@Jay_Jay thank you so much for this information. I will keep my eye out. Also a big thank you for all the videos you post on RUclips. They take a lot of time and commitment to make and your knowledge and love of Roses is to be commended. It's because of these videos, that my knowledge of David Austin Roses has increased greatly.
Yes sceptre d’Isle doing very well indeed. For me a great fragrance and grown well for a year old but she was huge when I was fortunate enough to buy her. Same story with mum in a million. And another purchase I’m over the moon with. Will see how she fairs during the year but so far very very happy.
Yessss! You're back and spectacular! Thank you so much for the updates on your garden. You keep it real in a world of egos. I bought several of my favorite roses because of your videos. I moved to ano6 climate now, starting over. So glad you are here.
Arrrr Dharma the person who shamed me into uploading :) yes when you eloquently pointed out you purchased roses from the back of some of my videos it kinda made me think a little. I’ll quote a film sure it was gladiator… something along the lines “diplomacy, always your finest touch” :)
@Jay Jay ☺️ soft diplomacy in the face of negativity is the spirit of a flower gardener. I remember a quote from Gladiator "...he sleeps well because he is loved" and you must know that you are. Thank you for coming back to us.
Been waiting for this! Always inspiring and informative (including the negatives and how to deal with them). Been looking for a light pink rose for my pink n' purple garden area and was just about decided to go with Queen of Sweden when I saw your side-by-side with Olivia Rose Austin. I'm now thinking is Olivia is the real showstopper. Anyway, appreciate your time to put these posts up!!
Hi Graham and thanks. If anyone is talking roses I honestly believe Olivia will never let 99.9 percent of people down. So if your after a light pink I don’t think you’d be disappointed with Olivia. It’s not without a downside, the first one I bought in it’s first year it was a little too floppy. It’s flowers do bleach to an almost white in hotter weather and it’s flowers only last 3-4-5 days max depending on conditions. It has occasionally for me a very light fragrance but more often than not I get nothing scent wise. All that said you have to consider if your looking for a purple and light pink bed you want the roses to be in flower at the same time for that effect and that’s Olivia’s party piece. Very rarely without flower. Flowers early in the season and you can’t really count the flushes because they all blend in to one another. After that first year from that first Olivia I wouldn’t say theve been too droopy since then. Maybe the occasional one. The bleaching of the flowers is something I’m not fond of but now they are bigger they always have fresh new flowers opening perhaps with the light pink your after and I’m abundance. We haven’t even mentioned it’s exceptional health but Olivia I think a very safe bet. Alternatives Queen of Sweden as you mention I think a fantastic rose. Very upright strong growth. Smaller flowers. Does well in rain for a rose. Flowers last twice as long as Olivia. But for your effect I’d go Olivia personally. Best of luck with your choice.
So happy to see your first film of spring 2023. Been watching all from last season on repeat. Was worried you weren’t going to post again. The sister and I are both from Texas, albeit 8 hours apart, we drop everything to text the other when a new video from you posts. Love your musings and inner thoughts on roses. I’ll try to tag you the next time I post a video of my garden. 💚
What a lovely message David thanks. I’ve subbed your channel I will get the next one you release. Look forward to seeing your garden in bloom thanks David
Really good to see you back! Have you noticed a difference in aphid attacks this year since you stopped feeding your roses? Somebody was telling me the other day that aphids often go for over fed plants because of the high nitrogen content in the soil, so I was thinking of changing how I feed too 🤔
Oh I wish that were true but for me personally no. Im still seeing aphids this year. Last year was horrendous for aphids this year perhaps only slightly better. This year I’m seeing brown aphids which are somehow more difficult to spot than the green aphids!
Such kind words and thank you. I also love Naffys content. With daylight hours she’s up against it but does a tremendous job. I’ve zero doubt a few of my plants in my garden were conceived from her videos :)
Wow! Finally I got to see your garden Jay Jay!😍Your roses are looking fantastic inspite of the bad rabbit and not 💦 them. I love it, most of your Parfuma collection are all in one area. I will definitely buy Scepter de Isle and Sweet honey (incredible number of buds). Thank you so much for sharing the beauty of your garden and I like your honesty in telling us how you take care of your roses and your funny experiment, maybe you can still save that rose ( the one which was heavily fertilise) by cutting it down and repot it with compost and garden soil, let see how it reacts. True! Summer Moon has incredible Kordes roses with towering height and lots of blooms. A lovely day to you and your wife!🌹
Hi Gemma hope your well. Scepter d’Isle and fantastic rose. Beautiful flowers even though you don’t see it in this video. Today and only a day after filming it’s looking fab with glorious looking flowers and fragrance. It does like to grow tall im led to believe and I think that’s right. Yes the Parfuma collection I’m not sure how many of them will be staying longer than the next year or two so thought I’d bunch them together for now. They look so gorgeous elsewhere in the world I’m remaining hopeful that with some time they will give good performance even if not quiet as big. I mentioned in an earlier comment today one flower on earth angel is looking absolutely divine today and fragrant too. But let’s see how quickly they rebloom. Very difficult to find answers online. What say you how did yours get on last year with reblooming?
@@Jay_JayHi Jay! I planted 3 Parfuma (summer romance, earth angel and fruity)bare root roses 1 1/2 years ago so they’re still establishing now. The Earth Angel flowers are hanging down and couldn’t see the beauty of it yet. Fruity has plenty of buds but still close and nice growth. Summer Romance which I was looking forward to see has a bad growth, I will dig her out and put it a pot until I can find a suitable space. My 6 years old Royal Parfuma aka Dark Desire is the one having a healthy growth and has lot of buds now but not yet open. Madame Anisette is also having nice growth and lots of buds.I will make my garden tour soon and make a separate video for my Parfuma roses so you can see. I‘ll observe my Parfuma roses, how long reblooming will take place this year.
@@rosegardengems wow that surprises me with what you say. Summer romance for me has had good growth I think. Growth wise I don’t think any are really lacking. My earth angle in the ground at the front looks good at the moment but time will tell when and if it’s blooms open and how it holds up. The one potted in the back garden most of the fully open flowers are now pointing downwards or nodding downwards. I don’t know how many petals but pretty heavy flowers. I will keep mine in situ for the next 2 years I suspect, but will continue to monitor during that time but I do wish I see the same or even similar results that I know exist in other gardens elsewhere in the world. We both know how fantastic they can look. :) keep us updated :)
Morning all 06.07 am. All right jay all ways enjoy your vids very informative on our chosen drug !!!!!!!! Welll Once you’ve. Sniffed a rose your hooked. .wishing success.
It’s an experiment for this year but so far no complaints mostly. One or two roses I know needed food. But will continue to monitor it over the cause of a rose season.
@@Jay_Jay yes ...Jayjay, all is well in my tiny garden.I have poet's wife stealing the show as usual followed by my boscobel,jubilee celebration ans Lady of Shallot...in line of kordes summer romance,reliable too.i added royal parfuma and earth angel.will see how it goes...anyway im delighted to pisted again in u tube.your roses are inspiring a lot of your viewers.Thank you Jayjay.😇
Please keep posting . Very beautiful. The garden is looking amazing! The earth angel needs time be patient. She will come into her own. I also want to say that I was one that you encouraged to post my garden and you are so positive and lovely and without you doesn’t feel the same. I have three roses in a box that have no been open! I love what you’ve done this year. Do you deal with thrips in England? They seem to be a problem this year for a lot of us. Make sure you upload another video this week! I need encouraging ! Haha great job
Hi Sherlock ;), yes earth angel I soooo want to see do well. Seeing it doing so well in other parts of the world it looks lovely. Of all my roses that is the one I want to see do well. It currently has a couple of amazing flowers on it along with maybe ten that have spoilt a little. But as I mentioned in the video I am seeing new growth come through already for the next flush which is good. Thrips I only ever heard off from the states I honestly don’t know what they are. Bless you and remember your a lot better than you think. I wouldn’t call you Sherlock otherwise. So go hit the garden :)
I have young roses , generous gardener and tottering by gently. I did a summer cut because all the buds where covered with aphids and ants.... So happy to see your roses again 🥰
Thanks kc. Sorry to hear about your issues as you can see I’ve had a fair share of my own. Yeah aphids can be a problem when you get that infestation. We have many many birds in our garden as you can hear but they don’t like to deal with the aphids as much as I’d like. We have Ants also but touch wood I’m not noticing any issues as yet!!!!! I hope your roses come back strong ;)
@@Jay_Jay We’re ok, thanks jay. Update on my cutting, all have survived. L Emma is huge, no blooms as yet but lots of buds , I’ll send you pictures with the first bloom x❤️x
Welcome back . I bought the pomponella rose also got a westernland from eplants. So looking forward to next year loved seeing your pomponella. Haven't yet bought the Eden rose but u just no I will get it
Wow 3 fantastic roses you got there and all very long lasting flowers is the experience I’m seeing from them roses. For me those 3 roses very nice indeed!! I’m hoping my Eden will finally start to put in a show I know it’s been waiting for. Free from mice, shaded positions or the garden waste bin!
New subscriber so I have a ton of bing-watching to look forward to. I'm especially impressed that you successfully grow so many roses in pots while you are deciding where to put them. I nearly cried when I saw your gorgeous "Bro. Cadfael;" I adore this rose, it's no longer sold in the U.S. & when I moved a couple of years ago I had to leave mine behind. I ordered 2 more, but they have not done well in the pots, so I'm down to 1 scraggly one.I think I may have over-fertilized once. So I'm envious of yours & hoping "Summer Romance" will be an adequate substitute. Love your garden tours!
Hi there yes my bro Cadfael is in the ground now and doing well. If your one is potted and overfed I’d be tempted to run water through it if the drainage is good, I’ve successfully done this in the past. My BC was potted last year and it done very well in that first year.
Awesome I hope they are doing well. I didn’t show you my absolutely fabulous that’s now in the large blue container on my driveway. My mums one is huge!!!!! Younger than mine but twice the size. Her roses are absolutely flying. But I think we are now seeing the benefits of the mulch I put down last summer. Zero feed. Nothing has touched her garden this year at all and is flying. Watch the thorns on sweet honey:) Thanks for dropping by.
My roses are still babies, but I hope mine look at good as your roses. Keep the videos coming and I will look forward to your next video. I'm looking at getting bliss parfuma, how big does yours get please 😊
Hi Jay, thank you so much for sharing your rose garden. It’s always happy time for me to hear you talking about garden roses. Chicken wire the rabbits and blacklist the online weirdos, don’t let them ruin the beautiful spring time. Those annoying people don’t deserve your time. The 3 Austin roses at the entrance are doing fantastic. And I’m jealous of your sweet honey rose😂 never tried the parfuma Serie from Kordes myself, very looking forward to your collection!
Hi Hina I do hope your well and your garden is coming along nicely. Yes the Parfuma collection is one I really want to work well. I see them grown in other parts of the world with such great success. At time of writing this I can see one flower on earth angel is divine. Breath taking beauty and today lovely fragrance. But currently it has about a dozen struggling. But like I said in the video I already see new growth coming up whilst in flower and that is a great sign. But I’ll continue to monitor. Thanks for dropping by Hina and look forward to your garden update
Oh I wish you the best of luck I really do. The wire looks awful of course and reading the comments here it’s said they can chew through! They don’t seem to be around just now but I think it’s because there is more food around. I tried several recommended sprays without success but I wish you luck 🍀
Thank you so much. I have just started getting into roses. Some last year, and this year, several. I love that Rol Dahl cooler (orange/peach). I have some hybrid teas, a Grandiflora, and some carpet roses for filling in.
Doggiesarus what a name I love it. Roald Dahl a great rose. And the colour you talk of appears to be my favourite colour but in a kinda surprising and unexpected manner. ;) best of luck with your new roses 🌹
Thank you so much for sharing! I am from Germany and the Kordes roses have got different names here, so interessting to find out the type. Loveley inspiration!!
Hi there Isabel. I have emailed both kordes and Tantau asking for international names of a few roses but neither have yet got back to me which is disappointing. I wish you the best in your garden ;)
Beautiful display they look great! I’m in agreement with you there are definitely strange characters on RUclips who try to knock out competition by giving bad rose advice or else gate keep the hobby - I don’t get it either! You can tell they’re miserable people based off the negative things they say about other people and the mean spirited comments. Happy people like yourself don’t do that and I’m of the same mind, in fact I think most gardeners are glad to help others. I love videos like yours where I can learn from other people who love their gardens and we can share that passion together, it’s informative and inspiring for me so thank you!! There’s plenty of room for everyone indeed!
Haha, your words that made me smile. RUclips gets it’s fair share of criticism but I’ve said before the red and white icon we all tap on our phone screens each day has been good for me. As a means of sharing my ups and down, mistakes and success’s its been good. But we’re all different characters, personalities. All sorts in this world and RUclips you will find them. :)
New subscriber ..but have been watching your videos a while ...silly me taught i had already subscribe😁..luv how you grow some of your roses in pots..cause thats what im trying to do..❤ your roses..from the Caribbean.
Hi alleycat, keep us updated how you get on with your potted roses that’s a hot part of the world but I know it’s still possible from other areas. Best of luck
Hi Jay. Thank you for the video. Your roses are beautiful. Very impressive collection. I do feel your disappointment with rabbit's destruction as myself have deer invasion since I've planted roses. I wish you all the best with your very informative chanel.
I'm so glad to see you back! I bought a Spicy Parfuma largely because of your reports of such lovely spring leaf colour. It's now one of my favourites too!
Hi Jo nice to hear from you too and so glad you got spicy and like her. If you see I wanted one of mine as a centre piece rose in my garden. I’m really happy with mine just a shame she got eaten when she was at her finest foliage wise:(
Loved looking at your garden full of the beautiful English David Austin roses and Kordes. It is so demoralising when the new growth is eaten to the wildlife. I live in Australia and most of my climbing roses were eaten by possums. I have plastic possum spikes now so they can’t sit on the fence and have Christmas dinner every night. It has worked thank goodness.
Love your David Austin Desdemona I myself have a Claire Austin,which will flower this summer and I am so excited to see her, I have yet to get some trellis but looking forward to the whole thing! Your garden is a delight x .
Hello Jay im so glad to see your garden again 💚 thank you for sharing all your beautiful roses once again . Im so amazed of how well your roses are doing they have so many buds🤩 Im already thinking about Spring planting 😊 I order Roald Dahl bare root which will be delivered next month 🤗 Sweet Honey caught my eye i would love to have in my garden but i think it’s not available in the US but i will keep searching for it . Have a lovely day and Happy New Year 🎉
How lovely to see you back ! Your garden looks wonderful I can almost smell it from here haha My list just gets longer and longer the more I watch your video oh dear need to get saving up ! Well done with Kiftsgate that cannot have been an easy move but I think it will be magnificent where you've planted it now. Please do more videos you have been missed, in fact I'm just uploading one myself and was about to message you to ask how you were so it's fabulous to see how things are doing. What a shame about the strange folk you alluded to :( ignore them and enjoy your spectacular garden, we all love to see it and hear from you.
Hi soulgirl I will have to watch your video always a great watch :) yes I moved several roses this past year and I hope into better spots. Some were promoted some relegated into pots. You see we cut the front hedge right back not anywhere near as busy as it was and a lot of the ivy got cut out from the front. The companion planting we still need to get ontop of. Especially now with rabbits they have decimated much of what we put down so next year we go hard core eapcieally for months of April and May when they seem to eat everything that grows! Will watch your video now :)
@@Jay_Jay Gardens, they are never finished are they? I think it's good to move things around especially if they are not doing well you can always try a new location, sometimes that's all that's needed. Such a shame about the rabbits it's devastating, I know how they can demolish a garden fast we had rabbits at a previous house and they were relentless. We lost a lot to those cute little bunnies ! They ate two beautiful quince completely gone in just a few sittings haha was a nightmare even with the perimeter fencing dug two feet in below ground and wrapped under the main fencing haha they just chew their way in regardless. Yes I noticed the hedge it looks so much better now well done :) I can imagine the scent coming off that front wall as people walk by it must be spectacular. Really good to see you back.
Thanks for sharing your garden. It all helps when looking to buy just one or two David Austin roses and not knowing how they turn out apart from looking at the picture on the pot label.
Great to see you back with your lovely garden. I have a mum in a million too, it’s a great rose.I have put in a DA rose which is not massively popular- summer song. Have been bowled out by its shape and size and colour may I suggest it for you?
Hi Sonia and thank you. Mum in a million is doing very well I love it. Summer song is a sport of Carolyn knight meaning they are apparently the same rose just slight different colour. And Carolyn knight I have in my garden this year. It was my favourite rose at da last year when I visited so I see where your coming from. However Carolyn knight this year for me is not leaping from the starting blocks for a new rose. Is very leggy currently, and despite the dry weather it’s 3 flowers this year 2 have failed to open they have balled up. And the third flower was balled up also but the strangest thing happened today. I just touched it gently and it sprang open like a coiled spring! But we will see how it gets on in the coming year or two. May I ask what country our climate are you in?
I love your videos, they are so natural and lovely. PS. You said you don't want to do a partner program wit RUclips, I don't know the whole system behind it, but here is advertising running once or twice in this video. Greetings from Germany.
Hi there and thank you. The advertising I have not signed up to the RUclips creator program. There is a way of checking to see if anyone has signed up to it and see how much they earn etc but I don’t know how to do it. But I can assure you I haven’t accepted it. I am not an official RUclips creator and RUclips pays me no money. The main reason was to prevent adverts appearing during my videos and it’s annoying RUclips put them in anyway. I can only apologise but I do everything possible my end to Prevent adverts appearing during my videos. And thanks once again. ;)
@@Jay_Jay that is a shame that they put advertising on your videos if you don't want. By the way the is there a video of how you prune your roses in the spring or autumn, that would be very interesting because you have so many different types. Greetings...
@@Jay_Jayit's very sneaky of ytube to put in ads (I counted 4, one of which is a 20min ad of a video which I skipped). Ytube got money out of it in spite of you expressly refusing to get ads put in.
@@continuousself-improvement1879 Hi there. Yes I’m sorry you saw adverts I don’t know how it works. I know some people don’t see any adverts at all on any of my videos. Some people do. I believe on a pc there is no adverts and on some phones there are no adverts, but there doesn’t seem to be consistency. But I assure you I do everything I can to stop adverts appearing on my channel. I do not make a single penny from RUclips my channel isn’t about that. Thanks for letting me know
So glad you are back! I bought a Summer Romance last year just because I saw yours. Alas, it was from a terrible vendor so it didn't make it so I bought another one and have her planted. I'm crossing my fingers that it grows as beautiful as yours. I've seen a couple roses in your garden that are now on my list, lol. Well, many if I'm going to be honest :) Looking forward to seeing more of your videos.
Hi Diana and thanks. Summer romance I do love. I have 4 of them all in different locations but most are in the ground now. Still the million dollar question is how regular do they re bloom! I find it impossible to find the answer to this online. This rose and earth angel. As you saw in this video I am seeing fresh growth come through this year whilst it’s starting to flower which I hope is a positive. Please keep us updated on your summer romance but I still think a fantastic rose even if it only flushes a few times. Best of luck.
@@Jay_Jay Thank you! The rose I received was a band (super small) so I"ve potted it up and am babying it to try and get it larger and stronger before winter comes (I live in Michigan USA - think below freezing and snow). The sweet little thing actually threw out a rose, lol, so there's hope. I'll show it on my channel in a week or so, if you'd like to see a super small one :)
Welcome back mate, glad to see your beautiful garden, hope all is well with you and the wife, keep smiling, keep doing what you are doing, pay no attention to the haters fella :D
@@Jay_Jay Yeah well done on get that done you and Lucy done me good thank you, I should be posting a video Wednesday or Thursday, just waiting on my mate to help me in the garden, I have a gift for you when you are ready to come and visit fella
Such a lovely garden! I have a couple in my yard that were here when I moved in 6 years ago that I don’t know names or how to take care of. That’s how I stumbled upon your channel. I am pretty sure I pruned them wrong.
Lovely roses Jay Jay! I have 2 Summer Romances in my garden in Tennessee. The roses seem to bud up about every three weeks. They are both very strong and disease resistant. They have grown bigger than the measurements on the rose label.
Thank you very much this is information I was having difficulty establishing. I have a few summer romance still very young. I think the oldest this will be it’s second full summer. Last year after a fantastic flush of flowers they all seemed to stagnate for several weeks before any signs of new growth developed. And this was with feeding. Very odd compared to my other roses. This year thankfully I’m not seeing this stagnation so far and rebloom looks not far off. Thanks very much and best of luck with yours this year
Hi I saw your video today and just love it. Please share some update you did with your flowers. I’m also trying to do something with my roses too. Please share with us your garden update idea 😊
great tour, thank you, sweet honey what a shocker and your pomponella looking fab too. Id be livid to find my garden had been so badly hit by rabbits. They are g,reat eating so they’d be going down Im afraid 😮. I’m in the country too but havent seen a rabbit in 6 years, fingers crossed. But I’m getting hit bad by whitefly and rose slugs 🤬
Lucky you. Where we are is kinda very VERY rural :) we see rabbits each year but this year they have come in and fed. Your welcome roontunes I hope your well and your garden is looking fab.
Great to have you back as I love your videos but sorry to hear that Peter Rabbit has been at your lovely roses. My latest purchase is Eustacia Vye and I'm very pleased with the results already. Isn't the smell from Brother Cadfael amazing? I think it's my favourite rose in my garden.
Hi Wendy good to hear from you. Eustacia Vye I have zero doubt you will be pleased. A great performer I think. I described her as an all round cricketer in the past. She does everything well. Brother Cadfael is one of my favourite roses yes, but another one I don’t know why! Perhaps it’s amazing scent that I’m particularly drawn to. Or long lasting flowers that I see. But sometimes you can’t put into words your favourites, it’s just because!:) great rose and I had no hesitation Planting mine in the ground after just one year potted. :) thanks Wendy and take care. Best of luck with your ev
Hi Jay, I really like your Desdemona rose. It glows! I wonder what it looks like at night? Stunning view from your entrance to your driveway to the ocean. 🌹
Hi Cheryl, glows is a good term I guess. Almost a Pearlescent effect the best way I can describe into words that draws the white out. First crush I found a rose that almost glows in the dark. When lighting is just right as dusk is setting it has a radiance not at all noticeable during the day sadly. The ocean is a long way from the U.K. but on the finest of days we can see the channel from here which at 30 plus miles is not a bad feat. Hope your well Cheryl and your garden is coming along nicely this year.
Great to see you back Jay. The front of your house is looking beautiful 😍 I suspect I maybe one of those strange people who haven't shared much on YT 😉😂
Hi Netty good to hear from you I hope your well. Hopefully you’ll share when your ready :) Oh btw, I hope that pick of the bunch spicy Parfuma you acquired ahead of me last year is doing well. The one I have, the one that transpired to be the runt of the litter is doing ok. :) good to hear from you
@@Jay_Jay Spicy and Lovely Parfuma are absolutely stunning this year and the fragrance is great. Queen of Sweden is doing fantastic too and very pleased with how long the blooms are lasting. Like you I didn't fertilise this year at all and struggling with the watering as we are still on a hosepipe ban. I'm finding Elizabeth to be quite floppy this year with one really tall cane coming out of the middle. Could be lack of water that's causing it but others are doing ok.
Wow a Russian who speaks English? I often watch Russian RUclips videos some fantastic rose gardens in your country. I just wish I could understand the language. Much to learn I suspect. Your flowers will come soon enough :) 🌹🌹🌹🌹
Your garden is spectacular! Do you have a cold winter with snow and temps down to the teens? If you do, how do you store your potted plants? Thank you!
Hi there and thank you. No we do not live in a particularly cold climate. It’s rose zone 8b. Winter time the temp usually goes to around or just below freezing. And on a cold snap we might see minus 6 or 7. So my potted roses do fine. Thank you.
I really missed your videos. Please don’t let any internet trolls stop you from sharing your garden. There are many of us here who appreciate it and I enjoy your commentary.
Hi Kyla and thank you. Sorry I was away for so long.
Me too❤
Glad your back. If you are eligible for monetization, I definitely would enable it, even if its not why you’re on YT. Your videos are “evergreen” which means your video old videos are still relevant and you may be surprised how much you can make as residual income when you get video or a viral video 😉
Hi Lisa and thanks, I’ve genuinely no idea how much I might make but I’m guessing a few pennies per month for my tiny channel. But the main reason for keeping off the creater program was to try and keep adverts to my viewer to the minimum or non existent. When I looked at it you had to sign up to adverts or something or enable them in the videos something like that, and that I’m not keen on.
@@Jay_Jay I started with a few penny’s, then I had a viral video, that year I made over $100k USD from those ads. I literally bought a small car with my first month income after that viral video. I don’t make that now, but it’s more than a few pennie’s 😉. That viral video from 2021 still brings in most of my income.
im a Rosarian too like you .i live herein Asheville North Carolina i enjoy growing roses as much as you do ..Especially when you do it for the one you lost like my only daughter who died of hodgskin lymphoma. i
Sorry to hear about your daughter, awful news. I’ve no doubt nothing can replace, but I do hope you and your roses share much joy.
Jay Jay, Im so pleased you're back! You were missed for sure! I always look forward to your sweet " hello lovely viewer" it just makes my day happy. A stroll through your garden is inspirational and informative , even for me here from the 🇺🇸 Please keep it going.
I can understand your stress with rabbits, I have them with deer.
Hi Sharla and thank you. “Hello lovely viewer” is not my idea. I once heard a lovely radio presenter say “hello lovely listener” and I thought it was so nice and like many things on RUclips I put a slight spin on it. But I don’t wish to claim credit. I hope your garden is coming along well.
Hi Jay, so pleased you decided to come back, I love your garden, so beautiful. I only started collecting David Austin roses last year and I find your video's really inspiring. Keep them coming.
Hi Val, glad you find them inspiring. Best of luck with your collection please keep me updated as to how you are getting on, everyone starts somehwere. ;)
Boy, that Desdemona is besitiful and making me think my sunny front yard might be a great spot for her!!
Desdemona I’m really pleased with this year
Great to have you back! I'm sure I wasn't the only one concerned by your absence. As you say, your roses are looking fantastic.
I watched your video with the closed captions on to avoid disturbing my wife, and good as the captions are, they are often unintentionally funny. The names of roses often defeat the system - we had "Basketball", "Rolled All", "Set to dial" also known as "Centered Aisle" - and people might wonder why "nothing else is in flour", and you say "I've planted 200 enemies".
I have seen a small family of rabbits (or as CC calls them "Borrowers") in our adjoining field, but they seem to have only briefly visited our garden and nibbled very young plants thankfully.
However, I've just been surverying the damage caused by heavy overnight rain - petals everywhere and heavy water-logged blossoms flattening stems to the earth. I noticed on my new Tranquillity (which I am liking) that a lot of heavy single blooms have snapped their short supporting stems. I was hoping to post a video about now, but I think I've missed the best window for the moment.
You know I share your enthusiasm for Desdemona, Gabriel Oak and Eustacia Vye. You are such a sentimentalist planting Elizabeth for her spirit's enjoyment! - I actually bought Queen Elizabeth in memory of our late and wonderful Queen, so I'm the same! My autumn-planted bare root DA Elizabeth has surprised me by winning me over after I had been quite hesitant about her.in pictures. Mine looks paler than yours, maybe it's getting more sun, or maybe the colours change as the plant ages? She is my "happy rose" now - I find her very cheering to look at. Desdemona inspires awe and admiration for her mature elegant beauty and poise, but Elizabeth is just youthful exuberance bubbling over. The colours thing perplexes me in general. I dug up and potted Boscobel last autumn because I didn't like the colour (I know, what kind of philistine am I?), but this year I find her colour totally unobjectionable. She may go back in the ground. My beloved but disease-prone Abraham Darby has produced a good number of large attractive blossoms, but with an overall darker, redder than usual look, whereas a cutting I took from it has flowered almost pale pink. The pair of Sweet Honeys you recommended are flowering well in their first year - and I will not be at all disappointed if they grow to 6 foot. The 9? roses I bought (including the SH) from Parkers at crazy low prices are all surprising me with their growth and flowering - I think that after DA prices I was a bit snooty about roses that only cost a few pounds, but they are great! Queen of Sweden is an odd one - it puts me in mind of the Queen of Sweden inspecting her soldiers who are all standing to attention in close ranks, or a dense bamboo thicket. The Poet's Wife I struggle to like - I want a tall, large. prolific yellow rose to add a different colour to my main bed. The more orange Lady of Shalott will have to do for the time being. I have a Golden Celebration, but it hasn't been that impressive. The new DA Dannahue rose doesn't really tempt me, but who knows?
Anyway, keep up the good work Jay Jay!
Hi nik thanks and do hope your well. We have noticed rabbits in the previous 3 years but this year they have struck. It is annoying. Yes Elizabeth for me is a rose with character I’ve said this before. There are perhaps better roses but I do like it’s colour, habit unusual foliage and the fact it’s a great flowerer. Throw in some very occasional powerful fragrance it has more personality:) only a name sake for our old queen of course but a nice touch still I think and wanted it at the front there. And boscobel is another of my favourites I do like the colour personally. Fantastic in my eyes. Perhaps because it’s a little unusual. My two at the front here must be over 5ft I know that because I’ve just propped them up a little to pull them back from the road and see they are only a touch shorter than Olivia to it’s right. I’ve no doubt your sweet honey will at some point Grow very well. Mine clearly needed to be back of border or at the end of the garden. I just hope we see an extra flush or two with less dormant gaps between flushes this year. With my no feed experiment this year I doubt much difference from last year. But she did almost flower in December with an odd flower here or there. Will look forward to your update nik and hope your garden is doing well.
I sometimes put on the closed captioning if I need a really good belly laugh! I think I'll go back & see what it made of "Brother Cadfael!"
Hi, if you're still looking for yellow, I have Graham Thomas in my garden and it's quite prolific !
Jay....I wasn't a fan of white roses either until I met Pope John Paul 2nd. Oh my heavens the scent is divine!
Sounds lovely dolly it’s not a rose I have sadly but sure I’ve looked at the before. :)
I just planted one!!! I cant wait!!
Magnificent and delighted to watch. Boscobel looks improved from last year and stunning as well as Olivia. Uetersen has more buds and flowers than leaves and colour look great. Glad to see Mum in a Million in your collection, a fantastic and hardy rose. Mine is showing growth and bloom in 40 degrees Celsius temperature. Wow, you have added old rose Madame Alfred. Earth Angel has vigorous growth tendency and interesting to see how it vis a vis other parfuma collection. Lovely mate, have a good day.
Hi Rackesh and thanks. Yes Madame Alfred purchased maybe mid summer last year and this year doing very well indeed, just coming to end of first flush and second is as you see on the way! A lovely fragrance and flowers that last well over a week for me. I’ve zero doubt she will go front of house next year when a little bigger.
So pleased to see you back Jay, you really keep it real, thats why I love watching your channal. So bad to hear of what the Rabbits did. Indeed you have been missed.
Hi Vic, Bless you and thank you.
Oh. As soon as I saw Rosemary Harkness, I almost melted!
It's got my favourite colours of Golden Amber to a faded peachy pink.
It will the next one I order online. Thank you. 😊
Yea a fantastic rose. A very sweet spot in my garden so I have two. One for the front and one for the back. Be careful where you order it from though. Direct from harkness I think they might still have labelling issues. If you see one in your local rose nursary in flower I’d snap it up. Magnificent performance in my humble but the flower to die for. :) good luck
@Jay_Jay thank you so much for this information.
I will keep my eye out.
Also a big thank you for all the videos you post on RUclips. They take a lot of time and commitment to make and your knowledge and love of Roses is to be commended. It's because of these videos, that my knowledge of David Austin Roses has increased greatly.
Scepter’d Isle looks fantastic!!!! So tall it gets??!! But has such a great structure!
And that Mum in a Million…! Wow! Just beautiful!
Yes sceptre d’Isle doing very well indeed. For me a great fragrance and grown well for a year old but she was huge when I was fortunate enough to buy her. Same story with mum in a million. And another purchase I’m over the moon with. Will see how she fairs during the year but so far very very happy.
Your channel is a joy to watch and have helped me to decide which roses to buy and which not to buy.
Wow that’s risky!:) I hope your happy with your roses 🌹 thanks so much and thanks for dropping by
Good to see you back, the roses are looking absolutly beautiful this year!
Hi and thanks manon
So glad you’re back at it. Wonderful roses. So glad to stroll through your garden again from across the pond.
Your very welcome mate and hope your well.
Jay Jay... I'm so Excited!!!!! We all have missed you so much.
Hi Debbie and thank you. Good to hear from you again also
Enjoy watching your video and thank you .
No thank you for dropping by and glad you enjoyed. 🌹🌹
Yessss! You're back and spectacular! Thank you so much for the updates on your garden. You keep it real in a world of egos. I bought several of my favorite roses because of your videos. I moved to ano6 climate now, starting over. So glad you are here.
Arrrr Dharma the person who shamed me into uploading :) yes when you eloquently pointed out you purchased roses from the back of some of my videos it kinda made me think a little. I’ll quote a film sure it was gladiator… something along the lines “diplomacy, always your finest touch” :)
@Jay Jay ☺️ soft diplomacy in the face of negativity is the spirit of a flower gardener. I remember a quote from Gladiator "...he sleeps well because he is loved" and you must know that you are. Thank you for coming back to us.
Jay,thanks for sharing! Fantastic 🌹
Thanks Seniye hope your well.
Hello Jay Jay, welcome back! Your garden is looking beautiful, thanks for sharing. Happy days 🌹
Hi there Gi good to hear from you and thank you 🌹🌹
Been waiting for this! Always inspiring and informative (including the negatives and how to deal with them). Been looking for a light pink rose for my pink n' purple garden area and was just about decided to go with Queen of Sweden when I saw your side-by-side with Olivia Rose Austin. I'm now thinking is Olivia is the real showstopper. Anyway, appreciate your time to put these posts up!!
Hi Graham and thanks. If anyone is talking roses I honestly believe Olivia will never let 99.9 percent of people down. So if your after a light pink I don’t think you’d be disappointed with Olivia. It’s not without a downside, the first one I bought in it’s first year it was a little too floppy. It’s flowers do bleach to an almost white in hotter weather and it’s flowers only last 3-4-5 days max depending on conditions. It has occasionally for me a very light fragrance but more often than not I get nothing scent wise. All that said you have to consider if your looking for a purple and light pink bed you want the roses to be in flower at the same time for that effect and that’s Olivia’s party piece. Very rarely without flower. Flowers early in the season and you can’t really count the flushes because they all blend in to one another. After that first year from that first Olivia I wouldn’t say theve been too droopy since then. Maybe the occasional one. The bleaching of the flowers is something I’m not fond of but now they are bigger they always have fresh new flowers opening perhaps with the light pink your after and I’m abundance. We haven’t even mentioned it’s exceptional health but Olivia I think a very safe bet. Alternatives Queen of Sweden as you mention I think a fantastic rose. Very upright strong growth. Smaller flowers. Does well in rain for a rose. Flowers last twice as long as Olivia. But for your effect I’d go Olivia personally. Best of luck with your choice.
So happy to see your first film of spring 2023. Been watching all from last season on repeat. Was worried you weren’t going to post again.
The sister and I are both from Texas, albeit 8 hours apart, we drop everything to text the other when a new video from you posts. Love your musings and inner thoughts on roses. I’ll try to tag you the next time I post a video of my garden. 💚
What a lovely message David thanks. I’ve subbed your channel I will get the next one you release. Look forward to seeing your garden in bloom thanks David
Beautiful collection. Your roses are so happy in your garden.
Thank you all credit to the roses :)
Really good to see you back! Have you noticed a difference in aphid attacks this year since you stopped feeding your roses? Somebody was telling me the other day that aphids often go for over fed plants because of the high nitrogen content in the soil, so I was thinking of changing how I feed too 🤔
Oh I wish that were true but for me personally no. Im still seeing aphids this year. Last year was horrendous for aphids this year perhaps only slightly better. This year I’m seeing brown aphids which are somehow more difficult to spot than the green aphids!
Great to see you back , Jay Jay yours and A North facing Garden are my favourite rose channels both put out great content.
Such kind words and thank you. I also love Naffys content. With daylight hours she’s up against it but does a tremendous job. I’ve zero doubt a few of my plants in my garden were conceived from her videos :)
Olivia Rose, Gertrude Jeckyl and Sweet Honey...WOW!! 🌹🌱
Hi mickey. All credit to the lovely roses :)
Everything looks lovely and the garden is maturing nicely 😊
Wow! Finally I got to see your garden Jay Jay!😍Your roses are looking fantastic inspite of the bad rabbit and not 💦 them. I love it, most of your Parfuma collection are all in one area. I will definitely buy Scepter de Isle and Sweet honey (incredible number of buds). Thank you so much for sharing the beauty of your garden and I like your honesty in telling us how you take care of your roses and your funny experiment, maybe you can still save that rose ( the one which was heavily fertilise) by cutting it down and repot it with compost and garden soil, let see how it reacts. True! Summer Moon has incredible Kordes roses with towering height and lots of blooms. A lovely day to you and your wife!🌹
Hi Gemma hope your well. Scepter d’Isle and fantastic rose. Beautiful flowers even though you don’t see it in this video. Today and only a day after filming it’s looking fab with glorious looking flowers and fragrance. It does like to grow tall im led to believe and I think that’s right. Yes the Parfuma collection I’m not sure how many of them will be staying longer than the next year or two so thought I’d bunch them together for now. They look so gorgeous elsewhere in the world I’m remaining hopeful that with some time they will give good performance even if not quiet as big. I mentioned in an earlier comment today one flower on earth angel is looking absolutely divine today and fragrant too. But let’s see how quickly they rebloom. Very difficult to find answers online. What say you how did yours get on last year with reblooming?
@@Jay_JayHi Jay! I planted 3 Parfuma (summer romance, earth angel and fruity)bare root roses 1 1/2 years ago so they’re still establishing now. The Earth Angel flowers are hanging down and couldn’t see the beauty of it yet. Fruity has plenty of buds but still close and nice growth. Summer Romance which I was looking forward to see has a bad growth, I will dig her out and put it a pot until I can find a suitable space. My 6 years old Royal Parfuma aka Dark Desire is the one having a healthy growth and has lot of buds now but not yet open. Madame Anisette is also having nice growth and lots of buds.I will make my garden tour soon and make a separate video for my Parfuma roses so you can see. I‘ll observe my Parfuma roses, how long reblooming will take place this year.
@@rosegardengems wow that surprises me with what you say. Summer romance for me has had good growth I think. Growth wise I don’t think any are really lacking. My earth angle in the ground at the front looks good at the moment but time will tell when and if it’s blooms open and how it holds up. The one potted in the back garden most of the fully open flowers are now pointing downwards or nodding downwards. I don’t know how many petals but pretty heavy flowers. I will keep mine in situ for the next 2 years I suspect, but will continue to monitor during that time but I do wish I see the same or even similar results that I know exist in other gardens elsewhere in the world. We both know how fantastic they can look. :) keep us updated :)
Morning all 06.07 am.
All right jay all ways enjoy your vids very informative on our chosen drug !!!!!!!! Welll
Once you’ve. Sniffed a rose your hooked. .wishing success.
Hi there sorry I’ve only just seen this comment. Your absolutely right of course :) happy sniffing ;)
Good to see you! Those bunnies make the yellow jacks look like amatures.
They work fast for sure :)
Impressive show for a while JJ, welcome back! 🎉
Thanks mate.
They there ...Finally i was wondering were youre garden Videos...i can't get over how they Bloom withoud Rosefood...ubelievable...❤❤❤
It’s an experiment for this year but so far no complaints mostly. One or two roses I know needed food. But will continue to monitor it over the cause of a rose season.
Welcome back LL.
Garden looks superb JJ 👌🌹🥀
You see it each day :) cheers mate. Now WE need to see your garden. :)
Happy to see your beautiful roses update again they are absolutely gorgeous!
Thank you. Still not as large a collection as yours I don’t think. :)
Hi Jayjay nice to see your rose garden blooming well.🙂
Hi lily thank you I hope your your garden is doing well and more importantly, I hope your well.
@@Jay_Jay yes ...Jayjay, all is well in my tiny garden.I have poet's wife stealing the show as usual followed by my boscobel,jubilee celebration ans Lady of Shallot...in line of kordes summer romance,reliable too.i added royal parfuma and earth angel.will see how it goes...anyway im delighted to pisted again in u tube.your roses are inspiring a lot of your viewers.Thank you Jayjay.😇
Please keep posting . Very beautiful. The garden is looking amazing! The earth angel needs time be patient. She will come into her own. I also want to say that I was one that you encouraged to post my garden and you are so positive and lovely and without you doesn’t feel the same. I have three roses in a box that have no been open!
I love what you’ve done this year. Do you deal with thrips in England? They seem to be a problem this year for a lot of us. Make sure you upload another video this week! I need encouraging ! Haha great job
Hi Sherlock ;), yes earth angel I soooo want to see do well. Seeing it doing so well in other parts of the world it looks lovely. Of all my roses that is the one I want to see do well. It currently has a couple of amazing flowers on it along with maybe ten that have spoilt a little. But as I mentioned in the video I am seeing new growth come through already for the next flush which is good. Thrips I only ever heard off from the states I honestly don’t know what they are. Bless you and remember your a lot better than you think. I wouldn’t call you Sherlock otherwise. So go hit the garden :)
Ooooh Rosemary Harkness is so lovely.
Hi there Catherine. Yes one of my favourites indeed. I have two now and one at my mums. All doing well.
Good to see your wonderful rose collection again.
Thank you 🌹🌹
Your garden is wonderfully gorgeous!!!! Good on you, great vid. Really helps when choosing☆☆☆
Thank you. All credit to the roses 🌹
Thank you for sharing your garden; it looks beautiful and my mom thoroughly enjoy
the walk-about(s).
Thank you /)
I love your rose garden. I enjoyed your mum’s too😊
Thanks again Kyla
So glad to see you (and your Mom's garden) back on RUclips. 🌹 Appreciating your rose garden from Texas. Thank you.💜
Hi kanitra and thank you. I hope your garden is sunny Texas is doing well. 🌹🌹
Thanks for sharing. your Austin Garden roses. From UP State New York.
Hi and thank you for watching ;)
I have young roses , generous gardener and tottering by gently. I did a summer cut because all the buds where covered with aphids and ants.... So happy to see your roses again 🥰
Thanks kc. Sorry to hear about your issues as you can see I’ve had a fair share of my own. Yeah aphids can be a problem when you get that infestation. We have many many birds in our garden as you can hear but they don’t like to deal with the aphids as much as I’d like. We have Ants also but touch wood I’m not noticing any issues as yet!!!!! I hope your roses come back strong ;)
@@Jay_Jaythank you, I m sure they will, I ll give them their time.
Thank you so much for your comments and impression, I really enjoyed your garden. Good luck!
Hi and thank you very much. Best of luck with your garden also
Glad to have you back! Always appreciate your honesty and generosity in sharing your experience. V.
Thanks V. 🌹🌹🌹
Everything is blooming so beautiful , 😍
Thank you
Lovely to see you back again jay.
Your roses look beautiful as always.
❤🌹
Thanks Ronnis hope you and ray are well.
@@Jay_Jay We’re ok, thanks jay.
Update on my cutting, all have survived.
L Emma is huge, no blooms as yet but lots of buds , I’ll send you pictures with the first bloom x❤️x
Welcome back . I bought the pomponella rose also got a westernland from eplants. So looking forward to next year loved seeing your pomponella. Haven't yet bought the Eden rose but u just no I will get it
Wow 3 fantastic roses you got there and all very long lasting flowers is the experience I’m seeing from them roses. For me those 3 roses very nice indeed!! I’m hoping my Eden will finally start to put in a show I know it’s been waiting for. Free from mice, shaded positions or the garden waste bin!
New subscriber so I have a ton of bing-watching to look forward to. I'm especially impressed that you successfully grow so many roses in pots while you are deciding where to put them. I nearly cried when I saw your gorgeous "Bro. Cadfael;" I adore this rose, it's no longer sold in the U.S. & when I moved a couple of years ago I had to leave mine behind. I ordered 2 more, but they have not done well in the pots, so I'm down to 1 scraggly one.I think I may have over-fertilized once. So I'm envious of yours & hoping "Summer Romance" will be an adequate substitute. Love your garden tours!
Hi there yes my bro Cadfael is in the ground now and doing well. If your one is potted and overfed I’d be tempted to run water through it if the drainage is good, I’ve successfully done this in the past. My BC was potted last year and it done very well in that first year.
Everything is blooming so beautiful 🌹🌹🌹 Welcome back ❤️
Hi hydrangea and thank you.
Arthur bell and Gertrude corner is fantastic 😊
Hi Naffy and thank you. How’s your roses doing are we gonna get an update from your kind self? :)
Yay, you are back. I've missed your videos and your roses are looking fantastic 😊. I got sweet honey and absolutely fabulous after seeing your roses.
Awesome I hope they are doing well. I didn’t show you my absolutely fabulous that’s now in the large blue container on my driveway. My mums one is huge!!!!! Younger than mine but twice the size. Her roses are absolutely flying. But I think we are now seeing the benefits of the mulch I put down last summer. Zero feed. Nothing has touched her garden this year at all and is flying. Watch the thorns on sweet honey:) Thanks for dropping by.
My roses are still babies, but I hope mine look at good as your roses. Keep the videos coming and I will look forward to your next video. I'm looking at getting bliss parfuma, how big does yours get please 😊
Beautiful 😊 & love the video 😊just found this video for the 1st time 😊
Thank you Patricia
I missed you, so happy you are back!
Hi Deborah and bless you 🌹🌹
Hi Jay, thank you so much for sharing your rose garden. It’s always happy time for me to hear you talking about garden roses. Chicken wire the rabbits and blacklist the online weirdos, don’t let them ruin the beautiful spring time. Those annoying people don’t deserve your time. The 3 Austin roses at the entrance are doing fantastic. And I’m jealous of your sweet honey rose😂 never tried the parfuma Serie from Kordes myself, very looking forward to your collection!
Hi Hina I do hope your well and your garden is coming along nicely. Yes the Parfuma collection is one I really want to work well. I see them grown in other parts of the world with such great success. At time of writing this I can see one flower on earth angel is divine. Breath taking beauty and today lovely fragrance. But currently it has about a dozen struggling. But like I said in the video I already see new growth coming up whilst in flower and that is a great sign. But I’ll continue to monitor. Thanks for dropping by Hina and look forward to your garden update
I have 2 rabbits that did a number on my David Austin's... it happened so fast ..glad to know I'm not alone ...will be copying your wire wraps...
Oh I wish you the best of luck I really do. The wire looks awful of course and reading the comments here it’s said they can chew through! They don’t seem to be around just now but I think it’s because there is more food around. I tried several recommended sprays without success but I wish you luck 🍀
Thank you so much. I have just started getting into roses. Some last year, and this year, several. I love that Rol Dahl cooler (orange/peach). I have some hybrid teas, a Grandiflora, and some carpet roses for filling in.
Doggiesarus what a name I love it. Roald Dahl a great rose. And the colour you talk of appears to be my favourite colour but in a kinda surprising and unexpected manner. ;) best of luck with your new roses 🌹
Thank you so much for sharing! I am from Germany and the Kordes roses have got different names here, so interessting to find out the type. Loveley inspiration!!
Hi there Isabel. I have emailed both kordes and Tantau asking for international names of a few roses but neither have yet got back to me which is disappointing. I wish you the best in your garden ;)
Beautiful display they look great! I’m in agreement with you there are definitely strange characters on RUclips who try to knock out competition by giving bad rose advice or else gate keep the hobby - I don’t get it either! You can tell they’re miserable people based off the negative things they say about other people and the mean spirited comments. Happy people like yourself don’t do that and I’m of the same mind, in fact I think most gardeners are glad to help others. I love videos like yours where I can learn from other people who love their gardens and we can share that passion together, it’s informative and inspiring for me so thank you!! There’s plenty of room for everyone indeed!
Haha, your words that made me smile. RUclips gets it’s fair share of criticism but I’ve said before the red and white icon we all tap on our phone screens each day has been good for me. As a means of sharing my ups and down, mistakes and success’s its been good. But we’re all different characters, personalities. All sorts in this world and RUclips you will find them. :)
New subscriber ..but have been watching your videos a while ...silly me taught i had already subscribe😁..luv how you grow some of your roses in pots..cause thats what im trying to do..❤ your roses..from the Caribbean.
Hi alleycat, keep us updated how you get on with your potted roses that’s a hot part of the world but I know it’s still possible from other areas. Best of luck
@@Jay_Jay Thank you..will do
Hi Jay. Thank you for the video. Your roses are beautiful. Very impressive collection.
I do feel your disappointment with rabbit's destruction as myself have deer invasion since I've planted roses.
I wish you all the best with your very informative chanel.
Thank you very much. Yes rabbits a real problem but thankfully I haven’t seen any for a while now.
wow beautiful flowers god bless you more
Thank you
Nice to see you're back.
Thank you 🌹🌹
I'm so glad to see you back! I bought a Spicy Parfuma largely because of your reports of such lovely spring leaf colour. It's now one of my favourites too!
Hi Jo nice to hear from you too and so glad you got spicy and like her. If you see I wanted one of mine as a centre piece rose in my garden. I’m really happy with mine just a shame she got eaten when she was at her finest foliage wise:(
Loved looking at your garden full of the beautiful English David Austin roses and Kordes. It is so demoralising when the new growth is eaten to the wildlife. I live in Australia and most of my climbing roses were eaten by possums. I have plastic possum spikes now so they can’t sit on the fence and have Christmas dinner every night. It has worked thank goodness.
These are the exact questions I have asked too! So glad to have found your channel!
Hi and welcome :)
New subscriber…absolutely beautiful garden especially the lovely and gorgeous roses 🌹 ❤
Hi Barbara thank you and glad you enjoyed.
Thank you, your garden is really coming on beautifully
Thank you Lou Lou
Very beautiful roses
Thank you 🌹🌹
god bless you more this years
Wow, I enjoyed your roses!
Thank you glad you enjoyed. All credit to the roses :) 🌹🌹
Love your David Austin Desdemona I myself have a Claire Austin,which will flower this summer and I am so excited to see her, I have yet to get some trellis but looking forward to the whole thing! Your garden is a delight x .
Thank you. Yes I have two of them one of which I have planted in the ground this year. Thanks and best of luck to you for your garden this year.
Rose lover forever😍
Thank you and I hope you are too.
Been hoping you’d do a new video and you release two in a week! Great stuff. Both gardens look marvellous!
Thank you James all credit to the roses :)
Hello Jay im so glad to see your garden again 💚 thank you for sharing all your beautiful roses once again . Im so amazed of how well your roses are doing they have so many buds🤩 Im already thinking about Spring planting 😊 I order Roald Dahl bare root which will be delivered next month 🤗 Sweet Honey caught my eye i would love to have in my garden but i think it’s not available in the US but i will keep searching for it . Have a lovely day and Happy New Year 🎉
How lovely to see you back ! Your garden looks wonderful I can almost smell it from here haha My list just gets longer and longer the more I watch your video oh dear need to get saving up ! Well done with Kiftsgate that cannot have been an easy move but I think it will be magnificent where you've planted it now. Please do more videos you have been missed, in fact I'm just uploading one myself and was about to message you to ask how you were so it's fabulous to see how things are doing. What a shame about the strange folk you alluded to :( ignore them and enjoy your spectacular garden, we all love to see it and hear from you.
Hi soulgirl I will have to watch your video always a great watch :) yes I moved several roses this past year and I hope into better spots. Some were promoted some relegated into pots. You see we cut the front hedge right back not anywhere near as busy as it was and a lot of the ivy got cut out from the front. The companion planting we still need to get ontop of. Especially now with rabbits they have decimated much of what we put down so next year we go hard core eapcieally for months of April and May when they seem to eat everything that grows! Will watch your video now :)
@@Jay_Jay Gardens, they are never finished are they? I think it's good to move things around especially if they are not doing well you can always try a new location, sometimes that's all that's needed. Such a shame about the rabbits it's devastating, I know how they can demolish a garden fast we had rabbits at a previous house and they were relentless. We lost a lot to those cute little bunnies ! They ate two beautiful quince completely gone in just a few sittings haha was a nightmare even with the perimeter fencing dug two feet in below ground and wrapped under the main fencing haha they just chew their way in regardless. Yes I noticed the hedge it looks so much better now well done :) I can imagine the scent coming off that front wall as people walk by it must be spectacular. Really good to see you back.
So beautiful roses ❤❤
Thank you
Thanks for sharing your garden.
It all helps when looking to buy just one or two David Austin roses and not knowing how they turn out apart from looking at the picture on the pot label.
Great to see you back with your lovely garden. I have a mum in a million too, it’s a great rose.I have put in a DA rose which is not massively popular- summer song. Have been bowled out by its shape and size and colour may I suggest it for you?
Hi Sonia and thank you. Mum in a million is doing very well I love it. Summer song is a sport of Carolyn knight meaning they are apparently the same rose just slight different colour. And Carolyn knight I have in my garden this year. It was my favourite rose at da last year when I visited so I see where your coming from. However Carolyn knight this year for me is not leaping from the starting blocks for a new rose. Is very leggy currently, and despite the dry weather it’s 3 flowers this year 2 have failed to open they have balled up. And the third flower was balled up also but the strangest thing happened today. I just touched it gently and it sprang open like a coiled spring! But we will see how it gets on in the coming year or two. May I ask what country our climate are you in?
Gorgeous. Thank you 😊
Thanks
Glad youre back!
Hi vorong2ru and thank you. Hope your well
I love your videos, they are so natural and lovely.
PS. You said you don't want to do a partner program wit RUclips, I don't know the whole system behind it, but here is advertising running once or twice in this video.
Greetings from Germany.
Hi there and thank you.
The advertising I have not signed up to the RUclips creator program. There is a way of checking to see if anyone has signed up to it and see how much they earn etc but I don’t know how to do it. But I can assure you I haven’t accepted it. I am not an official RUclips creator and RUclips pays me no money. The main reason was to prevent adverts appearing during my videos and it’s annoying RUclips put them in anyway. I can only apologise but I do everything possible my end to Prevent adverts appearing during my videos. And thanks once again. ;)
@@Jay_Jay that is a shame that they
put advertising on your videos if you don't want.
By the way the is there a video of how you prune your roses in the spring or autumn, that would be very interesting because you have so many different types. Greetings...
@@Jay_Jayit's very sneaky of ytube to put in ads (I counted 4, one of which is a 20min ad of a video which I skipped). Ytube got money out of it in spite of you expressly refusing to get ads put in.
@@continuousself-improvement1879
Hi there. Yes I’m sorry you saw adverts I don’t know how it works. I know some people don’t see any adverts at all on any of my videos. Some people do. I believe on a pc there is no adverts and on some phones there are no adverts, but there doesn’t seem to be consistency. But I assure you I do everything I can to stop adverts appearing on my channel. I do not make a single penny from RUclips my channel isn’t about that. Thanks for letting me know
So glad you are back! I bought a Summer Romance last year just because I saw yours. Alas, it was from a terrible vendor so it didn't make it so I bought another one and have her planted. I'm crossing my fingers that it grows as beautiful as yours. I've seen a couple roses in your garden that are now on my list, lol. Well, many if I'm going to be honest :) Looking forward to seeing more of your videos.
Hi Diana and thanks. Summer romance I do love. I have 4 of them all in different locations but most are in the ground now. Still the million dollar question is how regular do they re bloom! I find it impossible to find the answer to this online. This rose and earth angel. As you saw in this video I am seeing fresh growth come through this year whilst it’s starting to flower which I hope is a positive. Please keep us updated on your summer romance but I still think a fantastic rose even if it only flushes a few times. Best of luck.
@@Jay_Jay Thank you! The rose I received was a band (super small) so I"ve potted it up and am babying it to try and get it larger and stronger before winter comes (I live in Michigan USA - think below freezing and snow). The sweet little thing actually threw out a rose, lol, so there's hope. I'll show it on my channel in a week or so, if you'd like to see a super small one :)
Nice video, roses are beautiful!!
Thank you 🌹🌹🌹
Welcome back mate, glad to see your beautiful garden, hope all is well with you and the wife, keep smiling, keep doing what you are doing, pay no attention to the haters fella :D
Hi Jason all’s good thanks very much. Hope your garden is still doing well and hope to see it soon. Did you get a nice surprise a little while back ?
@@Jay_Jay Yeah well done on get that done you and Lucy done me good thank you, I should be posting a video Wednesday or Thursday, just waiting on my mate to help me in the garden, I have a gift for you when you are ready to come and visit fella
Such a lovely garden! I have a couple in my yard that were here when I moved in 6 years ago that I don’t know names or how to take care of. That’s how I stumbled upon your channel. I am pretty sure I pruned them wrong.
Thank you for sharing!
Thank you
Absolutely stunning 💖
Thanks Cheryl
Very beautiful roses 🌹
Lovely roses Jay Jay! I have 2 Summer Romances in my garden in Tennessee. The roses seem to bud up about every three weeks. They are both very strong and disease resistant. They have grown bigger than the measurements on the rose label.
Thank you very much this is information I was having difficulty establishing. I have a few summer romance still very young. I think the oldest this will be it’s second full summer. Last year after a fantastic flush of flowers they all seemed to stagnate for several weeks before any signs of new growth developed. And this was with feeding. Very odd compared to my other roses. This year thankfully I’m not seeing this stagnation so far and rebloom looks not far off. Thanks very much and best of luck with yours this year
Hi
I saw your video today and just love it. Please share some update you did with your flowers.
I’m also trying to do something with my roses too. Please share with us your garden update idea
😊
Hi I have released many videos this year since this video was uploaded you can find them on my channel. Thanks very much.
great tour, thank you, sweet honey what a shocker and your pomponella looking fab too. Id be livid to find my garden had been so badly hit by rabbits. They are g,reat eating so they’d be going down Im afraid 😮. I’m in the country too but havent seen a rabbit in 6 years, fingers crossed. But I’m getting hit bad by whitefly and rose slugs 🤬
Lucky you. Where we are is kinda very VERY rural :) we see rabbits each year but this year they have come in and fed. Your welcome roontunes I hope your well and your garden is looking fab.
Great to have you back as I love your videos but sorry to hear that Peter Rabbit has been at your lovely roses. My latest purchase is Eustacia Vye and I'm very pleased with the results already. Isn't the smell from Brother Cadfael amazing? I think it's my favourite rose in my garden.
Hi Wendy good to hear from you. Eustacia Vye I have zero doubt you will be pleased. A great performer I think. I described her as an all round cricketer in the past. She does everything well. Brother Cadfael is one of my favourite roses yes, but another one I don’t know why! Perhaps it’s amazing scent that I’m particularly drawn to. Or long lasting flowers that I see. But sometimes you can’t put into words your favourites, it’s just because!:) great rose and I had no hesitation Planting mine in the ground after just one year potted. :) thanks Wendy and take care. Best of luck with your ev
Lovely roses😊 New subscriber today. Thanks for sharing. I wish I could smell the roses.
Hi Jay, I really like your Desdemona rose. It glows! I wonder what it looks like at night? Stunning view from your entrance to your driveway to the ocean. 🌹
Hi Cheryl, glows is a good term I guess. Almost a Pearlescent effect the best way I can describe into words that draws the white out. First crush I found a rose that almost glows in the dark. When lighting is just right as dusk is setting it has a radiance not at all noticeable during the day sadly. The ocean is a long way from the U.K. but on the finest of days we can see the channel from here which at 30 plus miles is not a bad feat. Hope your well Cheryl and your garden is coming along nicely this year.
Great to see you back Jay. The front of your house is looking beautiful 😍 I suspect I maybe one of those strange people who haven't shared much on YT 😉😂
Hi Netty good to hear from you I hope your well. Hopefully you’ll share when your ready :) Oh btw, I hope that pick of the bunch spicy Parfuma you acquired ahead of me last year is doing well. The one I have, the one that transpired to be the runt of the litter is doing ok. :) good to hear from you
@@Jay_Jay Spicy and Lovely Parfuma are absolutely stunning this year and the fragrance is great. Queen of Sweden is doing fantastic too and very pleased with how long the blooms are lasting. Like you I didn't fertilise this year at all and struggling with the watering as we are still on a hosepipe ban. I'm finding Elizabeth to be quite floppy this year with one really tall cane coming out of the middle. Could be lack of water that's causing it but others are doing ok.
What a beauty! It s warm in England. In Moscow we have only green roses leaves :( Flowers wil come at the and of June ;)
Wow a Russian who speaks English? I often watch Russian RUclips videos some fantastic rose gardens in your country. I just wish I could understand the language. Much to learn I suspect. Your flowers will come soon enough :) 🌹🌹🌹🌹
@@Jay_Jay Oh, I think we watch the same videos about russian roses:) My favourite are @NataliajardinderosesNT and @MONGOLKA36
Absolutely gorgeous,!!
Your garden is spectacular! Do you have a cold winter with snow and temps down to the teens? If you do, how do you store your potted plants? Thank you!
Hi there and thank you. No we do not live in a particularly cold climate. It’s rose zone 8b. Winter time the temp usually goes to around or just below freezing. And on a cold snap we might see minus 6 or 7. So my potted roses do fine. Thank you.
@@Jay_Jay Thank you for your reply. I live in zone 7 and do not have a garage, so I should just go with in ground planting.
