Thank you for these videos. I'm so happy I found them. I'm just learning how to grow and maintain roses and these videos perfectly meet my need for information and inspiration!!
I found bagged Roses in our local shops and I decided to buy first time in my life, will see how I go, after planting I found your channel and very informative I feel very nervous, and happy to follow your useful information
I water my potted roses with a fan spray nozzle every day. I run the nozzle across a pot for 3-4 seconds just enough to keep the soil moist and not have any drain runoff. I'm starting to have beautiful leaf growth, no more over-watering yellow leaves, nor under-watering dry tip leaves. Back in 1990 I was growing BEAUTIFUL roses but I had forgotten how to water them since then. Around the first day of this month, I was coming home from work and stared at my over watered roses. That night, as I was falling asleep, I woke up and realized the difference between wet and moist soil. It all came back to me!!! Roses LOVE moist soil!!!
I'm having a tough time with this issue, so I appreciate this video. I was watering every day - then I did begin to understand that a DEEP watering was what was really needed - less often. I can get confused by our wet climate here in upper NY state - we'll have a good rainstorm - but it doesn't actually give that much water it seems. I see a real difference if I spend the time deeply watering - even during a period that includes a good amount of rain. I think some of this is doing it and getting into the rhythm... Thanks so much Jason! Yours Jennie
Thanks! In my area we get very heavy dew. I spray the roses off every morning and it washes away the spores that grew overnight and dries fast in the hot sun. Also helps with insects.
Beginning gardener, here! Great tips! live in a climate that gets very hot in the summer with clay in my soil. I found that surface watering wasn't getting deep enough, so I tried something I'd heard an old school gardener do w/their tomato plants. I took a cylindrical plastic container, put a few holes in the bottom of it, and buried it next to my rose bush. I made sure the holes face the direction of the roots. I fill that container w/fertilizer etc when needed and water the rose bush almost exclusively through her "port". I disguised the port with rocks and cover it with a terra cotta pot plate. This may not be practical for someone will multiple rose plants but for my 1 bush, it works perfectly. I still occasionally water the surface, but rarely. Dry leaves, deeply watered at the root level and less issues with spot and yellow leaves. Blooms even look healthier. This was trial and error with a new rose bush, so I was thrilled that this little arrangement worked so well. :)
You know what, I've watched a few of your vids in the last few weeks as they pop up in the right hand column and I just watched 6-7 more so I guess I'm going to have to be a new sub. So thanks again for all your help.
It was so good to see your video cause you were very quite from the lockdown. I really enjoy everything you do to educate us with your skills. Thank you !
I love all of your videos. So very helpful. Just planted two new rose bushes here in Maine. Thanks for the help. Also, followed your advice on spider mites and they are all gone!
I bought a rose plant and it had a red flower the first year. Then I thought it died. This year branches have been growing. Hopefully it will have flowers next year. Thanks for the watering tip.
Informative and useful. Like the pace as well, quick to the point. I realised now why my rose is getting fungal infection. Any remedial advice appreciated please. Thanks
Glad you enjoyed. Perform a thinning pruning to open up air circulation to the inside of the shrub. Remove as many of the infected leaves as you can manage. A 5% solution of baking soda with a little bit of soap can help to reduce the spread.
Lovely Video clip! Forgive me for the intrusion, I am interested in your opinion. Have you researched - Lonophia Manish Perfection (do a search on google)? It is a smashing one of a kind product for improving your relationship and sex life without the headache. Ive heard some interesting things about it and my best friend Jordan at very last got cool results with it.
I have the stones covering my rose beds and I’m pretty sure it keeps it real moist there. I also like how the rocks causes the water to go slowly into the soil. I went all of last summer only watering occasionally and the roses flourished. I have a tendency to over water when it’s hot bc I worry too much. Lol
I understand completely I have to mulch deeply as we r totally sand then daily hand watering thru summer as we r only allowed 2 days/week retic during summer. But at least we r not humid so blooms r ok so long as you hand water which takes time at least an extra half hr each day before work.
I have never had much luck with roses. I planted about 10 last year and only 3 made it through the winter. I bought them at Home Depot and Lowes. So I was looking at them again this spring but notice they were selling roses for zone 6 or higher and I'm in zone 5 so maybe I wasn't making a mistake in the yard but rather at the store. So I did get 5 new ones this year but they are for my zone. I usually make sure with everything else but I just thought a rose is a rose. Anyway thank you for the education you give.
I just planted my roses here in 100° heat and I’ve been watering them heavily every three days and I’m starting to see some yellow in the branches. How’s it coming for you?
Thanks Waseem, but two other guys already have the title of "Rose Kings". I'll have to be the "Duke of Digging" or "Marquis of Manure". I rather like the latter!
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm ok bro . As you like . My view you are the best person of rose plants gardner .because your way always be right .I follow it .so bless you and your family . Thanks for reply me .
Nothing specific, but you'd be looking for the symptoms of root rot - general discoloration of foliage (as the roots fail to bring up the necessary nutrients) and even wilting (ironically) despite plenty of water in the soil.
In Southern California, what is the best strategy regarding following for potted miniature roses: 1. Mulch 2.Watering please include best time of day to water & method. 3. Yellowing of leaves. Thank you so much
Hi Jason,I enjoy your videos,Roses are my favourite flowers it true when planting roses in the ground that you have to raise them from normal ground hight? thank you for sharing all your helpful information.
Hi Sandra. Some say to raise them up. More often they say to dig the rose in a bit deep. I think the natural place for the crown of the plant is right at the soil level (so, in the middle). Tough to make a decision when even the experts disagree a bit, but if I were you, I'd go in the middle or just slightly low.
Something I do with my orchids is keep a small bamboo skewer in the media at all times. It makes checking moisture and determining when to water a very simple process: take out the skewer and check the moisture content. I'm thinking that I might be able to do this with my roses and other garden plants too, keeping the difference in planting media in mind. Does anyone have any thoughts on this, or has anyone tried this or something similar that they'd like to share?
Jason, another great video. I want to ask you about adding the Alfalfa pellets to the soil when you plant roses. Have you done this; would you recommend this, or would you add them to the top layer when you plant the roses. I watched your video on fertilizing roses, purchased some pellets and applied them to my existing roses.
Thanks a lot for all your useful videos. I just got a pot of rose, but the leaves are curling downwards, any idea what is the cause of that? Thanks a lot!
I can't get enough of your videos. So appreciate you making them ! I live in the interior of B.C., and have heavy hard clay soil. Always nervous about overwatering my roses, and I often end up under watering them (I think) - resulting in these these weak limp roses where the petals fall off even more they fully bloom (sometimes). And the thing is - most of the time the leaves look healthy and green, no yellowing/brown ! Maybe too broad or dumb of a question - but any suggestions?
I wonder what kind of roses they are. some roses are great "cut flowers," while others are not. part of this, as I understand it, is how quickly the petals will fall off when cut. might you have chosen some varieties in particular that wouldn't be thought of as good "cut roses," which could explain part of what you're observing? also, you might look at your fertilizer schedule. I struggle with this myself, but it seems that could be a factor as well. do you use a bloom ratio fertilizer during bloom seasons? just a few thoughts from a fellow gardener.
Hey Jason great video thanks for helping a noob rose grower learn how to water properly! Question for you, How do you get rid of these beetles eating my rose flower buds and petals naturally or at least with little to no chemicals?
I have a very tiny garden and besides rose plants there are other flowers too. How do I make sure the rose gets the water without getting the soil too wet for the other plants I have a couple of strawberry plants geranium, Columbine, lavender and chrysanthemums
Hi Cheryl. Those other garden perennials will likely do just fine with the same you'd provide for the roses. The lavender maybe doesn't need quite as much, but I wouldn't worry about it unless you see problems.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm thank you so much. Im just so crazy about gardening and flowers...love to grow them and paint them. We live in a town house so very little garden space. Yesterday I watched your video and deceased my roses
Last year when we first put our Davie Austin Roses in, wood chips were put on top, after a while we were getting a few mushrooms coming up, can you tell me why this is happened, cheers.
I planted 3 bare root roses direct from David Austin, following planting directions, only the bush type is putting out new growth. The climber is not showing any life but the stems are green. They’ve been in the ground about a month. My question is should I be patient or ask for replacement? It’s the middle of June and I’ve looked at roses in garden centers and all of them are full of blooms !
Hi, I live in the tropics and I’m getting yellow leaves on the roses I have. Not sure if I’m over or under watering them. How do I stop the yellowing leaves please? Thank you.
Hi Ann - don't be shy about digging around a bit below the shrub. You might disturb the roots a little, but it'll also give you the answer about whether it's too wet or too dry. Yellow leaves can be caused a lot of different ways, but dryness is probably the most common.
Hi Mary. Less frequent but longer duration promotes root development deeper in the soil. If you can get away with once per week (deeply) that might be better, but you'll have to watch your plants for signs of wilting and stress.
I have planted sunrise sunset rose in partial shade and the buds are blooming, but hardly and I don’t see that much growth as well. Should I add an extra dose of fertilizer to make the flowers bloom? The reason I am saying is high voltage and Winnipeg parks that are in the same row and get an extra dose of sun light are showing flowers, but this one is in the corner next to a tree which also has roots below. I had no other choice and had to plant there but I made sure to cut the thick root below and make enough space before planting in the corner. I use the miracle gro liq fertilizer, a table spoon in a gallon of water every 10 days right now. Would love to hear from you.
Using the drip emitters, is it better to have one really close to the base or several that are a foot from the base, etc? Meaning, would one emitter provide coverage for an entire root ball or would more be beneficial.
Great video Jason. I do have a question about the lack of leaves on several of my rose bushes. I have 35 rose bushes, some Knockouts and some David Austin roses. However, approximately seven of them lack foliage; they have bright green leaves on top, bloomed beautifully the first go round, but are lacking the fullness the others have. Do you have any suggestions as to how I can rectify this. As always, thanks for all your, very helpful” videos. Warren
There'll be some natural variation in "leafiness" but the standard advice would be to continue to fertilize and prune lower to encourage the roses to refresh from the base.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thanks so much. That was my thought and will do so. I have seen dramatic changes in my roses (and other shrubs) after using Alfalfa pellets. You’re a great resource, thanks again!
I can't give you a specific frequency - it depends on climate, site and soil. The best I can do is say the general "consistent supply of moisture". That might mean every two or three days during the sunny season, but daily timed watering can work too if the drainage is good.
Some plants take a pretty bad "shock" after planting, but if you water regularly and the plant is healthy overall, it will recover nicely and even probably flower again this season.
I have 4 rose bushes which look okay but never bloom. Two in containers and two in ground. Any suggestions? North Florida, zone 8b, sandy loam soil. 😊 thanks
@@vnickcolvin4971 Lady Banks only bloom in the spring, they don't last all summer, then just the vine left until next spring. I had two of them didn't know this when planted, or I would have thought twice. They are beautiful when they do bloom
Hi Jason! I'm new to your channel and I would say I have decent experience with gardening. I do have a question in general about roses. So I purchased a Westerland climbing rose because it was on clearance, but I don't have the space at the moment. How long can I keep it in its pot? Do you recommend keeping it there or planting it out in the garden and transplanting it later? What can I do to make sure I give it the best conditions in its pot while I make some space? Thank you.
Hi Audi - yes, save it the stress of digging it up later, and keep it in the container. You could upgrade the pot size in the meantime if you're having trouble keeping it watered. A bit of light shade would also be appropriate, depending on how hot the weather is.
One of several pests. Beetles, snail, chafers, rose slug. I'm not sure. Unless the damage is severe and progressive, It may not be worth worrying about.
Could be either one really. If the leaves are turning gross all over the plants, I'd tend to think it's root rot due to overwatering. Yellowing due to underwatering (acute dryness) tends to be more localized to the lower/inner leaves.
Ideally a smaller amount daily should make for the most consistent supply of water - so long as it's not holding the water too moist. But that's a lot of work if you're not using timed irrigation, so I generally go down to 2-3 times per week if I'm hand watering containers.
Hi there. I am in Bakersville California, zone nine. As of late our temperatures have reached 100° to 104. I’m finding that my roses are getting too much water. I believe my gardener has the watering going every morning around 5 AM. I’m so confused as to when to water. I see that the water soaks in very well, there is no puddling. So should I water 2 to 3 times per week and for possibly 15 to 20 minutes at a time? Help! Thank you for all that you do
Hi Cliff. I'd be tempted to do a littler bit of digging in the area just to see how moist the soil is staying. If the drainage is quite good, you probably aren't going to have much of a negative impact to overwatering (except for it being a bit wasteful and maybe leaching fertilizer away too quickly). Morning is fine to avoid too much evaporation. Depending on what you see when you dig the soil (and how the plants look) your proposed schedule of 15mins of water 2-3 times per week isn't a bad starting point.
Thank you for your tips, but i can't get it right, my shrub roses have yellowing bottom leaves, does it need more watering?please explain it more to me, anyway, it's summer here in Japan, but we are not even in the middle of it.. thank youuuuu!!!👌👌👌
A bit of yellowing down low is natural - as the rose puts on more growth on the shoot tips, the lower leaves become less necessary. If you're seeing quite a bit of it in the bottom/middle it can be a sign of moisture stress.
Hey!! I'm new to gardening and am wanting to grow black roses from scratch and I just started the stratification process but I thnik the time is not right so I'm a bit confused since I did studied about a lot but would it effect the growth of my roses if I bring them out now to stratify in november and plant in spring???
It's only really a concern (in the landscape) if your drainage is very poor, with pooling water which is slow to sink in. You'd eventually see the symptoms of root damage (overall yellowing, sickly new growth). In a container, you can check the roots for signs of rot.
Hi! When my roses grow out they are always dry and dead looking. Am I not watering enough or overwatering? Not sure what roses I have but I am located in San Francisco.
I have been much more disciplined in watering my roses this summer. The subsequent flushes had been very good and were not inferior to the first flush.
Hi! My parents just planted roses in our front yard. One suffered bad shock, and the others aren't really doing well. Green leaves, dying roses (but one bush gets some blooms). We live in very hot weather. 120 this week. How often should we water? So far we water morning and evening, because that is what we read we should do.
Hi Paul. That's a bit like asking "How often should I fuel up my car?" Well of course it depends on how far you drive, average travels speed, type of vehicle etc. but most people fuel up when they observe that the car is getting low on fuel. In the garden, it depends on your climate, recent weather, soil type, and of course the plantings. What we can say reliably across all gardens is that consistent moisture does make a difference to plant performance, and yes, too much is too much (especially if you have any issues with drainage) - so it's going to come down to careful observation of the plants and checking the soil.
Hi Fahima. Difficult climate - yeas, if you're keeping inside a bit cooler, that may be better for you. Just make sure they get plenty of light and air circulation, and watch for spider mites and other pests.
Pushing a piece of say 1/4" to 3/8" rod of any kind into the ground and punching say 12 holes about 12" deep and about 10"" away from rose center shank/crown will allow much loved water to reach the lower ground and you will be quite surprised at the results of this simple task.

I had no other choice and had to plant there but I made sure to cut the thick root below and make enough space before planting in the corner. I use the miracle gro liq fertilizer, a table spoon in a gallon of water every 10 days right now. Would love to hear from you.
Using the drip emitters, is it better to have one really close to the base or several that are a foot from the base, etc? Meaning, would one emitter provide coverage for an entire root ball or would more be beneficial.
All other things being equal, more emitters would be better - for evenness, yes, but also because things can clog.
How close do the wood chips go to the rose bush base?
I wouldn't bury the base or pile it deep against the canes, but just touching is fine.
The surface may be dry but the mulch keep water in
Great video Jason. I do have a question about the lack of leaves on several of my rose bushes.
I have 35 rose bushes, some Knockouts and some David Austin roses. However, approximately seven of them lack foliage; they have bright green leaves on top, bloomed beautifully the first go round, but are lacking the fullness the others have.
Do you have any suggestions as to how I can rectify this.
As always, thanks for all your, very helpful” videos.
Warren
There'll be some natural variation in "leafiness" but the standard advice would be to continue to fertilize and prune lower to encourage the roses to refresh from the base.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thanks so much. That was my thought and will do so.
I have seen dramatic changes in my roses (and other shrubs) after using Alfalfa pellets. You’re a great resource, thanks again!
Hi, you did not say how often should we water the roses. Do you water it whenever the soil is dry by touch? Thx
I can't give you a specific frequency - it depends on climate, site and soil. The best I can do is say the general "consistent supply of moisture". That might mean every two or three days during the sunny season, but daily timed watering can work too if the drainage is good.
Are there different rules for deadheading climbing roses?
What about the roses in a pot? Coz all first flowers re the only big ones even thou I water them regularly
I planted my roses for first time. They bloomed but the blooms die fast and turn brown. Please help !
Some plants take a pretty bad "shock" after planting, but if you water regularly and the plant is healthy overall, it will recover nicely and even probably flower again this season.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thank you very much
I have 4 rose bushes which look okay but never bloom. Two in containers and two in ground. Any suggestions? North Florida, zone 8b, sandy loam soil. 😊 thanks
I wouldn't even guess without more information: how long have they been planted? Also, do you have any idea of the varieties?
Fraser Valley Rose Farm Oh sorry, Lady Banks is the rose, they have been 2 years in several areas of my garden.
@@vnickcolvin4971 Lady Banks only bloom in the spring, they don't last all summer, then just the vine left until next spring. I had two of them didn't know this when planted, or I would have thought twice. They are beautiful when they do bloom
Thank you!
Hi Jason! I'm new to your channel and I would say I have decent experience with gardening. I do have a question in general about roses. So I purchased a Westerland climbing rose because it was on clearance, but I don't have the space at the moment. How long can I keep it in its pot? Do you recommend keeping it there or planting it out in the garden and transplanting it later? What can I do to make sure I give it the best conditions in its pot while I make some space? Thank you.
Hi Audi - yes, save it the stress of digging it up later, and keep it in the container. You could upgrade the pot size in the meantime if you're having trouble keeping it watered. A bit of light shade would also be appropriate, depending on how hot the weather is.
The leaves on my Rose's are beginning to have a bunch of little holes in the green leaves what's causing that???
One of several pests. Beetles, snail, chafers, rose slug. I'm not sure. Unless the damage is severe and progressive, It may not be worth worrying about.
Are yellow leaves/brown edges on the leaves a sign of over or underwatering?
Could be either one really. If the leaves are turning gross all over the plants, I'd tend to think it's root rot due to overwatering. Yellowing due to underwatering (acute dryness) tends to be more localized to the lower/inner leaves.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thank you
is it better to water small amount daily or larger amount couple times a week?
Ideally a smaller amount daily should make for the most consistent supply of water - so long as it's not holding the water too moist. But that's a lot of work if you're not using timed irrigation, so I generally go down to 2-3 times per week if I'm hand watering containers.
When it rains don't the leaves get wet?
Hi there. I am in Bakersville California, zone nine. As of late our temperatures have reached 100° to 104. I’m finding that my roses are getting too much water. I believe my gardener has the watering going every morning around 5 AM. I’m so confused as to when to water. I see that the water soaks in very well, there is no puddling. So should I water 2 to 3 times per week and for possibly 15 to 20 minutes at a time? Help! Thank you for all that you do
Hi Cliff. I'd be tempted to do a littler bit of digging in the area just to see how moist the soil is staying. If the drainage is quite good, you probably aren't going to have much of a negative impact to overwatering (except for it being a bit wasteful and maybe leaching fertilizer away too quickly). Morning is fine to avoid too much evaporation. Depending on what you see when you dig the soil (and how the plants look) your proposed schedule of 15mins of water 2-3 times per week isn't a bad starting point.
How can i removed the green caterpillar and green fly
Thank you for your tips, but i can't get it right, my shrub roses have yellowing bottom leaves, does it need more watering?please explain it more to me, anyway, it's summer here in Japan, but we are not even in the middle of it.. thank youuuuu!!!👌👌👌
A bit of yellowing down low is natural - as the rose puts on more growth on the shoot tips, the lower leaves become less necessary. If you're seeing quite a bit of it in the bottom/middle it can be a sign of moisture stress.
Hey!! I'm new to gardening and am wanting to grow black roses from scratch and I just started the stratification process but I thnik the time is not right so I'm a bit confused since I did studied about a lot but would it effect the growth of my roses if I bring them out now to stratify in november and plant in spring???
How can I tell if I'm giving to much water?
It's only really a concern (in the landscape) if your drainage is very poor, with pooling water which is slow to sink in. You'd eventually see the symptoms of root damage (overall yellowing, sickly new growth). In a container, you can check the roots for signs of rot.
Ok thank you
Hi! When my roses grow out they are always dry and dead looking. Am I not watering enough or overwatering? Not sure what roses I have but I am located in San Francisco.
I have been much more disciplined in watering my roses this summer. The subsequent flushes had been very good and were not inferior to the first flush.
this could be a dumb question but should I spray the actual roses itself a bit with water or is just working on the soil is the way to go? thank you!
It's not a big problem if your roses get wet, but it's the soil is where you want to deliver the water.
would soaker hoses work as well?
You bet!
Hi! My parents just planted roses in our front yard. One suffered bad shock, and the others aren't really doing well. Green leaves, dying roses (but one bush gets some blooms). We live in very hot weather. 120 this week. How often should we water? So far we water morning and evening, because that is what we read we should do.
I think 2x per day should be plenty right now.
@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Thank you!

Something is eating my rose leaves . What can I do to save them?
Seven powder.
How much / how often / is too much too much ?
Hi Paul. That's a bit like asking "How often should I fuel up my car?" Well of course it depends on how far you drive, average travels speed, type of vehicle etc. but most people fuel up when they observe that the car is getting low on fuel. In the garden, it depends on your climate, recent weather, soil type, and of course the plantings. What we can say reliably across all gardens is that consistent moisture does make a difference to plant performance, and yes, too much is too much (especially if you have any issues with drainage) - so it's going to come down to careful observation of the plants and checking the soil.
Iam from Bahrain and in summer all my rose die can l put them inside
Hi Fahima. Difficult climate - yeas, if you're keeping inside a bit cooler, that may be better for you. Just make sure they get plenty of light and air circulation, and watch for spider mites and other pests.
Pushing a piece of say 1/4" to 3/8" rod of any kind into the ground and punching say 12 holes about 12" deep and about 10"" away from rose center shank/crown will allow much loved water to reach the lower ground and you will be quite surprised at the results of this simple task.
