Rose Care in October
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 жов 2024
- Let's go through the year month-by-month and discuss the tasks and topics relating to rose care in the garden. This is the first in a 1 year series to complete a full cycle of rose growing: activities, feeding/soil, watering, propagation, pests and the plants themselves. The timing of these activities in the series will follow my own PNW climate (coastal northern temperate climate, similar to Seattle), but I'll also be delving into the reasons why these steps make sense, so that viewers can adapt the approach to their own climate.

Given that this is the first in the series, I'd be curious to know what you think about the format/features of the video. Is 9+ minutes too long? Did I miss any topics? There's still plenty of time to take feedback and give you what you want - the benefits of starting in the "off season"!
Not too long! I’ll watch as much wisdom and good advice as you care to record for us! Thank you, I love your videos!
Personally love this format and you couldn’t possibly make the video too long with the amount of knowledge you have. Incredible resource even for me growing way down here in Texas.
I would happily enjoy a two hour segment for each month from you.
not too long. the best parts were the why, since i'm a student of all your other episodes. I'm a little south of you, west side of Willamette Valley and i think slightly higher elevation, 600ft to let other fans compare. So the parts where you told the whys for your area climate/seasons made it easy to adjust for mine. Maybe put in temp/humidity/frost whatever readings you look at would be helpful too along with the plant growth description. I watch you have had monster amount of rain up there lately! And we are getting drier than usual October here!
I appreciate how you discussed roses in containers in a landscape, not for propagation purposes. I have a couple of roses on my balcony. That is always different from the ones in the ground.
Excellent video and certainly not too long. Just right for us. We are on the north east coast of Newfoundland, Canada in a zone 5a climate and we enjoy many beautiful rose varieties in our garden. We are about 200m from the shoreline and so our climate tends to be more suitable for rose growth and care but we still need to prepare our delicate roses with a burlap wrap each November, typically to keep the canes from the harsh winter winds along our shoreline. Then in spring we uncover the roses, remove the winter mulch protection and carry on growing again in the next spring season. Your videos have been very helpful to us and we thoroughly enjoy the presentation style, content and duration. Thank you!!
Thanks for adding your regional care tips!
Thank you for sharing!
Month-by-month much appreciated hand-holding🙂
Love the idea for the series! Thanks!
Thanks Mike
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Southeastern Pennsylvania, USA here. You might be a bit cooler than we are in October, but your info sounds about right for my situation right now.
Yay!!! I’m so glad you started the month- month care series. Very helpful. This is my first year and so can’t thank you enough!
Thanks Ann!
Thanks to you I did rose propagation with rose cuttings the first time and it was successful. Small new leaves are showing up.
Prairie Peace is a beautiful orange rose. Pomponella rose looks like a must-have.
Hi from rainy Germany.
Wonderful to hear about your cuttings! Thanks Kati
Actually, this was the perfect length for me.
Concise and to the point. Just the way I like information. Whatever works for you, Jason., will be fine.
Great idea! Thank you for doing this.
This is a great idea for a series! I'm right in your neighborhood, so your advice is perfect for me. Right around 10 minutes is perfect for me.
Thanks
I am watching from Seattle, WA.
Zone 6B…Midwest. I’m currently enjoying the last vibrant blooms from the cooler temps. I stopped deadheading in August and will add layers of mulch around Thanksgiving to insulate. I will also use a wind screen for my west winds and snow. The last rose I planted was 3 weeks ago. We are still getting warmer temps so I have been watering about weekly but a lot less. This year I’ve been blessed to be no spray so I’m not doing any pest control. Thanks for sharing great info!
Thanks for adding your region-specific notes Lisa. I'm sure other gardeners in the midwest would be pleased to hear that while you might be a few weeks ahead in preparations, we're basically doing the same activities.
I'm so glad to see more videos from one of my favorite gardeners. 9 minutes are just the minimum for me. I could watch twice that long since your information is so helpful. I'm in zone 8a in Tennessee in the Southern US so our winter temperatures are usually simiilar to yours with occasional 0 F degrees for a week or more just to keep us on our toes but our summers can be brutal with over 90 degree (F) days for a week or more and a lot of humidity. Very stressful for gardeners as well our plants.
Thanks. That was pretty much our exact pattern last year - mild though the early winter, then zap with 0F/-17C for a week (with wind!). My long established landscape roses sailed through with no problem, but I had to cover the smaller/newly planted ones. Thanks for the feedback on length. I suspect there may be (a lot) more to say in the spring and summer.
I love that I‘m not far from you and basically can do what you do 😊
Thanks Conny
thank you. great series! just what i needed.
Thanks Jane!
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Well, i've been in my new place a year, and have made ALL the mistakes but thanks to you my roses and all their cousin fruit trees are surviving. Benevolent Neglect and Observe More Do Less, seem to have been best strategies for first year. Some pruning of course! hahaha Some day talk about all the years and the progression of your and Lisa's hard work. Might help new viewers to know your masterpiece garden there took time!
Another fantastic and helpful video Jason, I’m looking forward to this month to month series, thank you!
Thanks Bryony!
I repotted a huge Dorothy Perkins this morning covered in dirt head to toe few thorns in my hands despite gardening gloves and i have 2 cuttings to take care of from it they are worth the work ❤ roses i have a huge crepuscule too and peace etc etc. ( Australia)
Dorothy Perkins is so vigorous! You're lucky you got away with just a few thorns. My Crepuscule is still small, but I'm looking forward to it covering a pergola.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm You will fall in love with Crepuscule believe me it is stunning and the buds just beginning to open exquisite you won't ever want to be without it once you see that give it a bit of rose food in spring & summer it will take off for you.
A perfect length video, and so informstive. Thank you.😀
As always,enjoyed this content. Thank you Jason. This is a good time of year to source pots, bring in a load of pine fines,an many other chores to be ready for spring. You put a lot of thought an effort to make these presentations,its appreciated .
Good suggestions. Always good to be prepared, and maybe I'll discuss some of the "stocking up" tasks in November's video, as it may be a little light on flowers.
Great video Jason! Really looking forward to this series. I’m in Houston Texas 9b. This is my first year but from what I’ve read our roses can bloom through November. Our roses often go dormant in the high summer heat of July and August, so everyone looks forward to this second season so to speak. I’ll be transplanting a number of roses from pots to new ground beds this month now that we are somewhat cooler. Hoping my roses perform better next year! I probably curse thrips in my sleep. Ha!
Thanks again! Terrific idea!
Thanks Keith! "Second spring" sounds nice - and in 9b, you probably don't have to worry about cold damage much if at all!
Going to be a very exciting and informative series, can’t wait for the next episode. Thanks
Love this idea of a month by month guideline series- thank you! I’m in Ontario- zone4 - looking forward to all your tips.
Thanks John.
I never know what to do with my roses this time of year, this video was very helpful!
Thanks for the feedback Mariana.
So happy for this series!!! I am on Vancouver Island (mid-island) so very close in climate to you. The length was perfect because you filled it with great information - if more info in another month to share, more time would not be an issue. Now to go check out the seeds video!
Thanks so much for the feedback!
Great content! Definitely not too long and the topics are appropriate. I am actually in your area, so unlike many other channels I watch, your info is directly applicable to me. Thanks for your efforts and keep up the great work! I hope to pay you a visit next year and bring home some of your lovely ‘product’ 😁❤
Thanks so much. We'd love to see you out this way.
Appreciate the month by month series. I, especially, appreciate the tip about not pruning long shoots now and waiting it out till the first frost. Those long shoots get entangled in the winter winds so I try to head them back and I do get some dieback by Spring. Will wait it out this year and see. I have the Pomponella as a tree rose. It is beautiful and very reliable with zero disease. The only negative it has is no fragrance but I'll take that over it's picture perfect blooms. It is a Kordes rose.
thanks so much! I'm in the Northeast- finger lakes region... very helpful!!!
Thanks
Hi Jason.
Length is great. I live on Vancouver Island and currently have around 25 rose bushes/shrubs. This type of video is very helpful to me and look forward to the next months guidance on care.
Thanks Kathy. 25 is a pretty good collection!
This was perfect, you answered all of my concerns about my container rose. I'm looking forward to the series. Thank you
Very welcome!
Super helpful, thank you! Love this calendar approach.
Always learning a lot from you Jason, thanks. Netherlands here, in a particularly wet clay soil so my plants tend to react like in a zone 5. I give my roses the sunniest and windiest spots to help airflow and dry them up.
Great idea for a series! Thanks!
Thanks Melanie!
You made it just P E R F E CT. And this new serie will be very helpful. You should teach most of the UA-camrs on how to deliver contents. Thank you!
Hi, I am in the south of England, all sounds good advice to me. In fact, I found this video so full of good information, I watched it twice 😊
Thanks so much Pauline!
Perfect timing! I'm in Zone 7a and was just about to go out and deadhead my roses. Thank you for showing me that that was a bad idea at this point. I will be tuning in each month to see what I should/should not be doing. Thanks so much for this series.
Yes, I've been deadheading,_and pruning some long canes, and i see some new growth startinv on my Easy Going. I will stop the deadheadinv and pruning until later when tbey are dormant. I do want to trim some of those long canes before ice or snow though, right?
Very much my pleasure. Lol. It's a lot of "not doing" in the next 2-3 months, but the activity picks up nicely again in February (here).
Yes @michellehimes-pb6uu depending on the conditions in you climate. Here I usually do it in December after there's been some cold to settle the roses down. I saw in other comments from the Maritimes that the heavy winds start early enough there that they take down the long canes earlier than I would. So it's totally a matter of adapting to your region.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm I will be very very interested in what I can do to prevent blackspot as it's something that I (and my roses) struggle with annually. Thanks again Jason!
Love the sharing of all this information! Not too long! Very usefull😊
Thanks Tannis
Great video! Very informative and right on time, of course :) Looking forward to following the series!
Thanks Milena!
Jason I have been busy for quite awhile as with the rest of us obsessed gardeners the early spring and into first of fall I lose all contact with humans 😂😂. But I can always guarantee that when I see one of your recent of seasonal informational videos that you are right in step perfectly with the answers I need . Maybe to perfectly are you real or AI . LMAO. Love you so and can't ask for anything less than you at this point. Hope you have a wonderful fall and winter. Take a break I absolutely need one. ❤❤❤❤❤ Another thing is I lose friends at this time but who needs friends when you have 🌹 roses.
Thanks so much for the encouragement and support Carey!
Great content! Thank you for doing this series.
SCORE! Rose care by month? Jason you are the greatest in the world.
I’m on the eastern coast of Virginia . They changed our zone to 8b (it used to be zone 8a) for many years. I still go by 8a though, since we haven’t had much difference between the two zones that I’ve seen yet. I have around 85 roses. I used to cut them down to around 18 inches and strip the leaves right before December. They did fine. However, I also used pine straw for mulch but I now use the wood mulch since the pine straw has been hard to find. I’ve noticed this past winter I lost 2 roses that were planted two years ago (neither one had been cut back),one called Fragrant Cloud and the other was Koko Loko. Both plants did great the first year. I still think the difference was not covering the center of the plants with pine straw as a means of insulation. I just don’t know.
The lack of mulch over the crown is a pretty reasonable guess, but also I wouldn't rule out that these could be weak varieties (both Koko and FC for me, also in zone 8, grafted - and losses reported by customers as well)
This will be SO helpful! Thank you! Down in Southern Oregon, we are just a bit behind you as we are warmer here, but I can adjust accordingly.
Thanks Paul. I'm a little jealous - you live in an outstanding rose growing region!
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm They do grow well here, but your roses look infinitely better than mine. 😆Trying to get mine healthy again. Cane borer seems to be a problem where I am. Thanks for your channel and info!
Really enjoying your videos here in the West of Ireland 🇮🇪
Thanks so much Michael!
So helpful! This series is a great idea.. thank you so much! Will try to apply all your excellent teaching down here in Andalucía: where we are, winter frost is not a big issue but summer heat certainly is.
Thanks Pat!
Good tips! I am impressed by your many replies to comments.
Lol. Thanks. And here's one more...
Great idea of a month by month video!
Thanks Fern
9b No. Calif. has been over 102 to 105 for last few days. I'm a novice rose grower and have resorted to shade cloth this year. Next year I'm looking to plant Sunbelt roses.
Thanks. South Africa and Desmond Tutu are outstanding!
Savanna sunbelt is so beautiful in fragrance… great glossy leaves… a light pinkish-apricot tight head multi-petaled … Houston 9B
Pomponella!!! I’ve never heard of this beautiful rose!.❤
It's gorgeous, isn't it? It's from the Kordes Fairy Tale series, and I can definitely appreciate the romantic form of the blooms.
I agree! Love this Pomponella!
_...that pink pomponella is the most beautiful i've ever seen..._ 🌹...
Great tips and video! Well done. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Great idea for a series
Thanks!
Tasmania, Australia - we're a bit cooler here compared to the rest of the country and are just seeing our first buds happening, of course the aphids are out in full force! We are pretty much just sitting and waiting on blooms at this stage 🙂
Love to hear it! We both look like spring, but your season is actually heading in the right direction.
Thank you for a great tips.
You bet. Thanks for watching!
Thanks always informative information.
Thank you! Im learning a lot! My roses pretty much stayed naked this summer because of black spots/ yellowing of leaves. Im going to keep trying though!
Thanks Tina. We're in a tough climate for black spot too! I've had to give up on a few varieties that I just can't grow well (Zephirine Drouhin, for instance). I'll be applying lime-sulfur this winter to knock down spores over winter and hopeful we can at least start the season clean.
Thank you, maybe I can try that too. I'm in Oklahoma City Oklahoma zone 7. I have no clue why my roses struggle with those horrible black spots and then turn yellow? I'm pretty new to the Gardening Thing 😁, but I do love your channel and all your wonderful suggestions! Tips and tricks! Have a wonderful evening/ day
Thank you.
My pleasure
So well worth it!!
Thanks so much Rocco! We really appreciate the support.
A monthly series is a great idea.
I am trying to keep the black spot in check. It seems to be extra spready this fall. I am 33 miles from Seattle. So our climates are roughly the same.
Thanks Tom.
I’m in subtropical Queensland Australia. So mid Spring here, hot and humid already feels like summer some days. My roses actually grow and flower quite well through winter but particularly in the warmer half of the year I need to be vigilant with watering.
Thanks Uma. Can't forget about the southern hemisphere! I hear a similar thing from India, when some of the best blooms are in their coldest month.
Thank you for sharing this information 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
My pleasure. Thanks for watching!
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm u r welcome
Just pruned back my roses today before you posted this video. 😮
Zone 8B. How bizarre.
Hi I live in Edmonton a definite zone 3 but also a weather microcosm exists around this city that allows unusual pockets of amazing growth. I love roses and relocated from Fraser Valley 3 years ago. I planted a rose walk that was semi successful. I am transplanting the largest plants over beside a protected fence area. The remaining plants r in bloom or just smaller than. I need to lean why not all the plants bloomed. I am organic n menial but want blooms. Patience is my present plan. Bloom forward to viewing more from u.
Patience is as good a plan as any with establishing roses! I'll get a little more into feeding in the spring episodes, but there are definitely some good organic options like alfalfa.
Thank you so much for this wonderful video, and all the other amazing videos you have given us! I live in zone 3a central Alberta, and have several zone 5 bare root roses I started in containers this year. I have several places I can store them this winter, some are heated to above freezing, and some will be below freezing but still much warmer than the -35c temperatures we get every winter. How cold can these container roses get and still survive, and what temperatures are too warm for the roses to stay properly dormant for our five month long winter season? Thank you again!
I would choose between a steadily cool location (below say 8C) that would sometimes dip below freezing over a warmer spot that went up into the teens C but stayed above freezing. So it's definitely a judgement call, but it sounds like you have some decent options.
Thank you!
Most welcome!
Funny just how similar and yet drastically different our climates and processes are.
As my 2nd established in the ground and 3rd overall winter prep, I am still considering which steps to take.
Most likely I will just let things be. As each rose flowers out they will just stay as is.
Because there is no freeze or true full dormancy, at least the roses can get a bit of a rest. Last year I decided to forego the deep pruning until after the drought and it was the right decision. Although the pruning was in August after the heavy storm, all of the roses responded with an amazing recovery.
It is so important to understand the climate we are in because some things just cannot be anticipated.
Those who are dealing with the major storms down South right now or the extreme drought here in Hawaii this year are quite different from a typical year, but when our plants are healthy, they have the best chance of recovering from those off years.
Due to the severe drought, all I did was water. The plants were already so stressed I didn't want to add any significant changes that might increase that stress level. Some might suggest adding nutrients to the plants, but in severe drought you definitely do not want to accidentally encourage them to add new growth when they are already struggling to survive. Yes, it does seem a bit counter-intuitive until you realize that all they really need is the moisture to maintain right where they are. Once the trouble has pasts, a very subtle addition of micro nutrients for base energy and then a very light introduction of starter NPKs to re-establish those beginning growth spurts.
I have a better irrigation system now to handle those drought possibilities and far more efficient soil that can hold the moisture so much better.
Finally seeing positive results from all of those early efforts.🤙
Really good point about being careful with fertilizer levels when dealing with drought. I've seen too many people react to yellow leaves by fertilizing, only to eventually figure out that the lower & inner leaves were yellowing and dropping because of moisture stress! Good to hear your efforts are paying off.
Thank you 🙏🏻
Very welcome!
I live in London, England and last year none of my rose bushes became dormant in the winter. I was waiting for them to sleep so I could do a good prune on them, and in the end none of them were pruned.
Because of the mildness of our climate here I can relate. I've picked an arbitrary date: St. Valentines Day / February 14 where I begin my annual pruning "ready or not". Of course, I'll adjust this if the weather is uncooperative. If we've had a dormancy-inducing cold, that helps with the clean start. But if there are still active growing leaves, I impose my own reset with pruning, stripping, a lime-sulfur spray, and mulch replacement.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarmthat makes sense, I’ll do that next year if it happens again. 😊
I liked the video length, and would have been fine with longer. I’m still pretty new to roses, this being my third season, so I still have a lot to learn. I’m in northern MA near NH (was zone 5b, now 6a) with a fairly short frost free season. I have done some general garden clean up so far, but will start prepping for winter and next season this week. So far I haven’t had to provide additional protection for any of my roses.
Thanks Babbs. Good to hear your roses are making it through without loads of extra protection!
Zone 5 B
Great series, Jason. I'm Calgary, zone 4a, and we brought in 'Heritage' Austin rose as a greenhouse in our city does this; I was concerned that I had to slow it down for winter instead of having it at 17-20 C, under a grow light situation (matching winter light hours), and a light fan. Appreciate the info about the South Asian ancestry and that continuous growing in warm conditions is usual. Could you tell me how I should fertilize in this situation (won't be able to put out until late May). thanks.
Great idea and looking forward to the upcoming series. By the way I am in zone 6, is it too late to transplant potted roses to the grand? Thanks.
Thanks so much. It's a matter of whether there's enough time with favorable soil temps to get some meaningful rooting. Zone 6 can vary a lot, but maybe look up your first frost date online to see if you have a few weeks. Mind you, a dip below freezing and then straight up again during the day won't set a newly planted rose back at all, so I'm pretty relaxed about the exact first frost, and they are at least better insulated in the ground than in a pot.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Just checked the average first frost date is between Oct. 11 - Oct. 20
Cutting back here, Charlottetown PE, in preparation for the high Fall windstorms
Hi Millie. Makes sense! Those long unsupported canes won't stand up to severe weather. Thanks for adding that!
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm taking propagation cuttings from all these tall, beautiful canes as I cut back though. It’s very windy, but it remains on the warmish side into Fall, so I’ve had good luck with sticking cuttings directly in the ground this time of year!
Northeast Ohio 6b and pretty much on the same schedule as you described here! Great video and I love the idea of doing a series of these. Have you ever heard of Louise Odier? I’ve had her for 8 years in full sun with good drainage. Nice bloom in the spring in fact first rose to bloom and then nothing the rest of the year. Maybe a few in the fall. Just long canes with nothing on them. Any idea what I might be doing wrong? Supposed to be a repeat bloomer. Here scent fills the air when she does bloom!!
Thanks. Louise Odier is a tall grower to be sure, but also a pretty good repeat bloomer for me here. My only complaint is black spot susceptibility. I'm not sure why yours is reluctant to bloom through the main part of the season, and without knowing your garden conditions beyond what you've already mentioned, I'd start by double checking the basics: adequate watering through the heat of summer, a reasonably balanced supply of nutrients, rejuvenation pruning down low to encourage branching. If you're getting long, straight, unproductive shoots, this could be a physiological problem called "blind shoots" that I'll be addressing at some point on the channel. The problem is that no one has a very clear idea of what causes them - but once you've identified blind shoots, the best solution is to prune them back down to a reasonable height (say 2ft) to see if that can reset the growth to a more normal flowering cycle.
Great video. During winter I don’t water my garden roses (Zone 7a, New York City suburbs), and I’ve never watered my container Peace rose either, but you advised that container roses should be watered moderately in winter. Since I overwinter it in a sheltered area (no wind, rain or snow), does that change the watering needs? This Peace rose is now 14 years old, healthy & beautiful.
Thanks Catherine. I don't argue with success - so if your 'Peace' has been happy with no water over the winters in a container, no need to change. As a more general recommendation, and especially in places like ours where we can have warm stretches over winter I recommend staying with occasional watering, just less of it.
Hi, thanks for this interesting serie ! I'm in zone 9a equivalent in France and I wonder: if I want to move an established rose right now but it has long canes, should I prune it back or just transplant it without touching it ?
I side with moving without pruning. Why stress the plant out in two different ways? Of course it never hurts to remove any dead, diseased or super thin stems, but for the most part let it settle in as-is and prune later as needed.
Love this series. Can you tell me which rose has the most small hips? My Internet research shows Frances E. Lester is a good one. Any more? Thanks
I did have one clip in the video showing Ballerina with a whole lot of tiny hips - the hybrid musks are good that way.
Hi Jason, thank you for the posting just in time. I am about to transplant a climbing rose from one container to a larger one. Since I will be away in November. I wonder if I can transplant it without any pruning now in October and give it a pruning in mid December when I am back home. If yes, do I need to water it regularly after the transplanting? I am in Zone 6. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thank you 😊
That's probably the way I'd do it. Why stress the plant out with both a transplant and pruning at the same time? If everything looks okay, I might even hold off any pruning until late winter/early spring. It's hard to say if the larger container will need additional watering in the time that you're away - I suppose it depends on the size of the container & temps this time of year.
Winter is the best season for roses where we live because of the temperature never below 10 C. Average temperature during winter is between 15 to 27 C but summer is the worst for roses because of the scorching temperature.
You said that Oct is not a bad time to transplant. I thought that dormacy was the best time to move a rose...
I think early on I had the same impression because the bare root rose growers ship their product dormant, but based on my experience it's not the best time to plant. I won't argue with what works well for others, but my feeling is that a fully dormant rose being moved into a cold soil gets little opportunity for root development / anchoring before facing winter cold, wind, wet and frost heave. In a sufficiently mild climate you might not see a problem - but when I've compared results from active-season fall planting vs. dormant season winter planting, it's the fall-planted roses that come though better. I go so far as to say that if you're into the coldest part of the year, and you're forced to move dormant roses (or receive bare root) you're better off potting for now and planting in spring.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm That is good to know because I was planning to refresh the soil of my pots during dormancy. Maybe is it better to avoid it in winter, considering my region, 6a Illinois? But if so, I have no opportunities to refresh the soil...
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thanks for your reply. Good to know. I will try it.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm On the length of segment. I don't watch TV - so you are my TV. The more the better, in my book.
In terms of feedback ... I do frequently pass on your videos to people in my gardening world. It's harder when I know my friends will be acosted by loads of ads before they can watch the footage. It does put me off sharing your videos.
Thanks for the feedback (on the ads) - sadly it's more Google/UA-cam's judgement call than mine. I suppose someone's got to pay for the bandwidth!
You haven't blessed us with Geoff Hamilton yet? I guess now we have to wait until the sun comes out again.
As far as differences in climate go, we grow our tomatoes in winter here. Then we grow tomatoes in summer because whatever. Then there is this weird in between season thing that goes on when we also grow tomatoes.
My only couple of climbing roses seemed to be in flower all the time, but they were getting weird and shitty looking. Is it rust? I don't know. Couple months ago, I cut them back to stumps and they are regrowing just fine. It seems my only point of failure in Southeast Queensland is me.
Lol. No, Geoff hasn't really shown off much this first season, but lots of stem growth so should be good to go for next summer. When it comes to cruddy looking foliage, I'm with you: I don't so much need to know exactly which pathogen is responsible. 90% of the time a good cut back or stripping will give me much cleaner new growth.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Your content is so enjoyable, Jason. We don't need to see you stripping.
Hi! thanks for your videos! can you do a video " best flowering fall roses"? thank you
Thanks for the suggestion. I'll put it on the list
It’s so crazy to me that Georgia and Seattle are both zone 8
Hi im in Southern central Michigan zone 6, im a pretty new gardener and this summer i purchased 4 oso easy roses and they got the black spot the entire summer it was over grown criss crossing branches, I cut it up pretty good it still blooms with no leaves..I used sulfer for a remedy also tried baking soda and water in a spray bottle. I guess we shall see how they grow next spring, anything else I could try?
I'll be covering some overwinter sanitation tips in coming videos, and my go-to overwinter is a lime-sulfur spray to knock down overwintering spores. I do find that roses cope far better with foliar disease once they've truly established a strong root system, which is hard to do in a single season.
Hello, I'm in the Midwest and am on a very similar care schedule. Do you have any experience growing roses near black walnut trees?
No, not direct experience. My parents had a large black walnut - and while some of the more vulnerable plants (nightshades) did have difficulties, presumably from the juglone in the soil, they grew roses a moderate distance away with no troubles. Root competition itself is a concern with any large tree, so best to get some distance from the drip line if possible, but from the research I've read allelopathy from black walnut isn't as severe with roses as with some other plants.
When you said transplant, do you mean transplant to the ground from pot? I have a rose that isn't happy in a spot that's a bit too shady, so thought I'd move it, but assume that a full size mature plant should be moved in the dead of winter when most dormant For best chance of it surviving?
From pot to ground or from one site to another in the garden. I prefer early spring or fall for transplanting. Climates will vary, but in my experience waiting for full dormancy also means the roots aren't actively growing to assist with recovery. That can leave the plant vulnerable to winter conditions: cold, wind, wet or frost heaving.
Highlights
🌱 New series on rose care starts this October!
🌍 Regional differences affect rose care timing and methods.
🌹 Main activity: Enjoying the last blooms and encouraging roses to slow growth.
🌿 Fertilizing: Stop feeding landscape roses; pot roses can receive limited nutrients.
💧 Watering needs decrease; monitor container plants closely.
🌱 Propagation: Focus on own-root suckers and seed collection.
🐞 Pest management: Aphids may reappear, but winter dormancy will reduce pest populations.
When you use the seed from the hip does the resulting rose not become a bastard of whatever pollinated it or dies it stay true?
The seeds can definitely be variable from the mother plant, especially when collected from modern hybrids. The one shown in the video was a rugosa rose, which doesn't readily cross-breed with the other modern roses in my garden, so I usually get seedlings in two flavors: pink or white with roughly the same growing habit as the mother.
I live in zone 10. Would it be OK to prune my roses any time of the year? or should I let them form hips and go dormant or semi-dormant? My climate is Mediterranean, so even if I don't water them they will get plenty of rain in the winter.
If there's a natural break point in your season (like the transition in weather from rainy to dry) that'd be the time to do the heaviest pruning, cleanup, mulch replacement, etc. But otherwise you have a free hand on when and how often to prune, as there's no risk of winter damage.
I've been time to cut my roses down to the wood for winter. Do you recommend that?
No. This is something I've heard before, and I won't argue with success. If it's worked well for you in past years, it may agree with your plants and climate. My recommendation is to save your heavy pruning for late winter/early spring. It'll let you address any winter damage in the same step and is generally safer for the plant I think
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thanks so much! But when the cold sets in, you do cut it the roses that much? I appreciate the help (I inherited my roses, and am trying to learn to care for them properly!)
Hi, I stick few cutting in the ground last year and this year I potted them, question is do I need to water during winter when it go into format stage?, I keep all my pots outside as I don’t have greenhouse, thanks
When dormant, watering needs are minimal - I'd check every now and again to see that the soil doesn't dry out completely (light, shrinking away from the sides of the pot)
About transplanting established roses, I live in Sweden but the best climate we have, comparable US zone 6, and I have 3 roses I want to move. First frost date is November 10, is it ok to move them now even if they haven’t got much time to establish or should I wait until spring?
All other things being equal, I'd probably wait until spring to move them.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm thanks for the advice. ☺️
Hi! I’m in zone 7a PA i have baby roses just in band size pots do you think it’s ok to leave them outside covered with frost cover? It’s my first year growing roses i have them all in pots because we have deers and my friends gifted me so many baby rose plant. Please give me a suggestion. Thank you!
The frost cover is definitely helpful. If it were me, I might also consider sinking the band-sized pots into a larger volume of soil to protect the roots a bit from temperature swings.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm When is the perfect time for me to start bury the band size, what temperature? Thank you so much!
I am from India ,can I propagate rose through cuttings
You bet. This time of year should be quite favorable I hope, somewhat less heat to deal with.
can Pomponella stand very rainny weather?
The outer petals can brown in persistent wet weather.
Jason, I have a question for you. I have quite a few of DA young roses blooming. They are only few weeks old. I was initially excited and thrilled to see the blooms but then I wonder if I m doing something wrong. I’ve only fed them fish fertilizer 1 time. While I’m so happy to see the big flowers I’m worried that the stems are too tiny and flimsy. Some have even slept on the ground from the tiredness of carrying the flowers all day. I kind of wish they had stronger stems before rushing to flower. Have you experienced this? My 1st time with DA roses and do please let me know what I should do. Haven’t deadheaded them yet!
DA roses can be notoriously lax with nodding flowers, so don't let it stress you out. I doubt you've overdone anything with a single application of liquid fish. Steady as she goes. If you're in a temperate climate like mine just let them bloom out to the end of the season, do some light cleanup over winter (on young roses) and hopefully they'll be able to put on a stronger framework in spring.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm thank you Jason. That’s a relief. Will do🌝 hopefully they grow taller next year.
My rose cutting is growing new buds but no roots why?
My general advice when the buds express before roots is to select wood that's from a little further back on the stem (firmer) rather than the softer tips or stems up near the flowers. Lower room temps overall can slow the budding process down, or conversely, you can apply some bottom heat to the soil only (not too warm, maybe 24C/75F) to encourage faster rooting.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm okay thanks i just put them into rooting hormone once again btw should i cut the new grown bud?
Hi Fraser, I planted some roses earlier September have them fertilizer plant food , they were looking poor, now that they’re flowering beautiful roses blooms. We are going into mid October , I am enjoying the roses , but don’t want to encourage more blooms . My question is to you is should I just let them get rose hip to STOP ? . don’t want to lose them . TY.
