I just found your channel. It’s a lot of helpful information. Thank you! I’m in zone 10 b and I just started rose garden this year. Hopefully I have a lot of blooms next year😊
That is so exciting! Please let me know if you have any pain points and have any specific questions. I would love to help. I hope you get tons of blooms too! Happy Gardening ☺️
Hi Octavia, the Holly tone fertilizer is NPK: 4-3-4 vs the Rose tone that is 4-3-2. So it looks like Holly tone has more potassium in it compared to Rose tone. You can use it on the roses but maybe add it a little less during the flowering season. It is a good fertilizer to add in time for winter because it will help harden the canes to prepare the plant for winter hardiness. Hope this helps!
Hello again! Have you tried any mulch, ever - on any plants or plants to? I’m in a subtropical zone and there’s no way I could put gravel next to my plants because sure of how they will heat up with direct sunlight 😢
I use rock mulch around my roses and it does really well. It hasn't heated up the roses too much during summer and they seem to like it. I would experiment with one rose if you want to try it otherwise try regular tree mulch.
Yes, it can definitely be used with new roses. As it’s a little late in the season, I would hold off on using it right now. I recommend using it in spring. For now, you can do the foliar spray with kelp.
Yes! This exactly! I wish someone would have told me this when I first bought my climbing roses. I thought I had killed them the first year. Forget blooms, it had shed all the leaves. Lol 😂

I am in Orange County. Is it zone 10a too or 10b?
@rawsunnata829 I am not sure as it would depend on your zip code. You can check it here on the USDA website: planthardiness.ars.usda.gov

Where do you get alfalfa meal?
Great, informative information. How often do you spray your roses with kelp?
Honestly, it helps if you do it once in 2-4 weeks. I usually do it once in 4 weeks but if I get time to do it sooner then it would help even more.
@@AmritaBhortake thank you!
Can alfalfa meal be used on new roses? I have several small own root this sprig, should I wait until next spring?
Yes, it can definitely be used with new roses. As it’s a little late in the season, I would hold off on using it right now. I recommend using it in spring. For now, you can do the foliar spray with kelp.
What type and brand of fertilizer do you spray on the leaves? I want to buy it...for next spring.
This is my favorite Foliar fertilizer for the rose. It is a kelp fertilizer and worked really well in my garden this year. amzn.to/3Ej9UGv
@@AmritaBhortake thank you
Thank you!!!!!!
Your welcome ☺️
can you share the link for the foliage sprayer?
Sure thing. I use the 2 gallon one for the garden because it can cover half of my garden in one go. Hope this helps. amzn.to/49kxHns

Climbers can be stingy bloomers till they are a few years old!
