i saw a video that said to take out all the chicken feet (canes that branch off) and clean out the middle of the plant. Like remove some canes. It looks like it can be pruned down to 24 inches. and remove about half of those canes. Clean away the all the mulch and leaves under, blow the weeds, clear the base, add manure and a balanced fertilizer, replace the mulch.
This was one of the most helpful pruning videos I’ve seen. Very logical and very simply presented. Rose pruning has always been a bit of a mystery for me even though I’ve grown them for years.
You are good gardener i love your lady of Shalott rose videos she is a monster I thought it had two plants together u should get more david austin roses they seem to Love your weather
Wow! Your bush is just gorgeous!!!! I have 2 of these growing together and they're almost 2 years old. It gave me a few blooms last year but after i trimmed it back, it refuses to bud up. I stopped fertilizing it thinking it had too much nitrogen. I just dont know why this rose is refusing to bud up like my other roses. Any ideas?? Maybe it doesn't like to be trimmed back? Maybe i need to leave the branches long?? Any advice you can give me would be greatly appreciated.. I need help😓😩
Hello - pruning it back should not hurt blooming, in fact, it would encourage it. What kind of fertilzer are you using? Are you getting good growth on the leaves?
@@PhillipOliver It is super gorgeous! I guess it's a rose that requires at least 3 years to get established and obtain those sturdy upright canes such as yours. It will require winter protection in my eastern Canadian climate followed by a hard spring pruning, pending on winter damage.
@@Thunderbird68-i2f I have found that the Austin roses usually take a few years to get established well. They are definitely worth the wait though, aren't they?
@@PhillipOliver They most certainly are! It's just that in cold climates, they need to be grafted and require a hard spring pruning. And depending on the Austin, they put out only so much height in a short growing season. I prefer Austins that throw up longer canes before their first flush after a hard spring pruning. That way I get to enjoy the height as well. St. Swithun is an Austin climber that did just that. I treated it as a shrub because it was impossible to keep it as a climer in such a cold zone. But being a climber by nature, it really did put out those long canes before flowering. I'm hoping that Lady of Shalot, being a natural climber, is in that category as well. My question is...how much growth will Lady of Shalott put out before flowering if I was to prune it down hard, let's say to roughly 4" above ground level in spring?
@@Thunderbird68-i2f I'm not sure exactly but I cut mine back about halfway (about 3 feet off the ground) and it generally will grow double that during the season, reaching a height of 5-6 feet. I cut off a few canes during the season that spring outward but I don't see many of those. I know this one is advertised as a climber or shrub for for me, it grows more shrub-like. I suppose if I left it to do what it wanted, it might take on characteristics of a climber.

Thank you so much. That is great to hear.
Such a beautiful rose. I’m going to train mine as a climber. It has really strong stems. ❤

This was actually really helpful. I'm surprised you don't have more subscribers. Thank you for these tips!
Thank you so much Lindsay! I'm glad it helped. :)
Przepiękna Lady of Shalott 😀
Great pruning video. I was wondering how many years does it take for a rose to look like that?
With good soil and conditions, just a few years. They grow pretty fast. This is the 6th year for this one but it was large in its third year.
@@PhillipOliver thank you so much. I'm making my own rose garden and hopefully it would be a success as your garden is 🌹

Can you tell us what's the sizes of LOS after your cut? And what's the sizes it could be with blossoms? I had one, only on his second year. Thanks
Hi Judy, after pruning, it is about 3 ft. After the regrowth and blooms, it will probably be about 6 ft.
@@PhillipOliver Thanks, it's a big one. How wide will it be before and after?
@@judywang8981 at least 5 ft wide, It is big!
Wow~♡
Amazing 😍
Tank you! Is there one rose or two in the same spot?
Thank you - this is just one rose.
How old is your plant or how long has it been planted there?
This is the 8th year (planted in 2016).

isnt it grafted or own root
They are called canes
