Your garden is amazing! What pleasure to walk through it & admire your hard work paying off! If you were trekking through Europe you'd be missing all of this---maybe that's the pay-off for having to miss your trip? My pet rose, Cadfael, does not take after his namesake, who must have been an early riser to attend Prime, at sunrise. He prefers to sleep in until there is some serious warmth & sun, but then, oh my. Yours may be a bit sulky b/c of the transplant, but once he realizes he's free, I'll bet he takes off like an angel rising to heaven! As Always, so delightful to hear your voice in the morning & see your roses as they, too wake up.
Hi vintage and thanks yes BC abit slow of the mark but stretching his legs now. He’s putting on a fair bit of growth and I see many buds coming through. Always a good sign and one of my favourite scents :) I can’t wait. :)
Hi Jay Jay, your roses are looking FAB, so so healthy ! Yes, I agree this year is definitely a black spot year. I treat my roses with Neem oil but I confess that I have had to defoliate some. Cheers! 🌹
Best of luck for rest of year. Yes I look around and I see this is going to be a difficult year again. I’m bracing myself it will happen sooner or later just a question of time . :(
Wonderful, thank you for the lovely tour I bet your garden smells amazing right now. Looking beautiful as ever, hopefully the weather hasn't done too much damage. We are having some shocking weather this year. It was bouncing down here this lunch time but this afternoon the sun came out and it's a lovely evening now.
Thanks Linda yes really good fragrance this year. There are days I can smell from litterally down the lane over a 100ft away. Not just as I’m passing. I do like that :)
Thank you for showing us your beautiful roses. Lovely colours. I have two Dolce Vita in my collection and they're fantastic and so easy going. I'm going to buy some Uncle Tom's Rose Tonic. Breezy again in Ayrshire but not as windy as it was, thank goodness. My two Icebergs seem to dance in the wind without any damage 😀. Thanks for the great video Jay Jay 👍
@@Jay_Jay Hi Jay jay. They're lasting a long time. I bought them about six weeks ago and they were covered in buds, that started opening about a week later. Still haven't even dropped petals yet. Stood up to the weather well. I also bought Easy Does It in the same order and it's fantastic too. Starts off a lovely bright orange colour and changes to a coral colour. Ruffled petals. Beautiful. Compact size without being too small 👍
I bought rose pomponella because of you. Planted as a bare root earlier in the year and about to bloom. Love your garden so much and really enjoy the tours.
It's so good to see your videos once again and your roses are lovely. Mine are doing well too, but unfortunately I can't go out to admire them or sniff them ---- I'm home recovering from having 2 back surgeries. But I sure do love seeing your roses!
I got a Pomponella and Uetersen rose this year after seeing yours last year. The Uetersen has its first proper flower today. The Pomponella is just a baby band, but is putting on new growth. I'm hoping once they get established, the look half as amazing as yours. Your roses are beautiful this year. Thank you for the video tour.
Hi Iris. Great roses I think. My Pomponella as an eBay purchase and was tiny!!!! I was very lucky I think. Best of luck with yours it will grow well im sure.
Rain and wind for you, 90 to 95 degrees fahrenheit all week for us here in Ohio, my rose leaves are saying "ouch!", I feel like Aquarius the zodiacal water bearer, never go empty handed always a bucketful or water can full of water in tow! 😃😃1:20 The comfrey tea bit is interesting, because 50 years ago my aunt planted comfrey here at home and it has gone wild, even going downstream far and wide. 1:16 The Sceptre d'Isle has wonderfull little cabbage roses on it, that fine Victorian or Redoute look! 💓💓 4:03 Nicely quartered, i love quartered roses, 4:18 A nice big, handfull of Pomponella, very much like my Francois Rabellaird except that Francois is a much deeper red. Francois has very little fragrance, more like a fesh, clean scent of laundry dried on a line under summer sun. 4:50 Wow! Pomponella is quite ambitious! 5:45 Oh! In January, we would be more than happy with a sight like that! 6:06 In my opinion, Earth Angel is THE BEST "modern" rose. She is not troubled by short heavy rains, but an entire week of rain/wet, she will ball/mummify, Roedoute never has a cabbage rose as perfect as Earth Angel. Anyone uncertain about growing her, get yourself one, she is indescribably gorgeous andher fragrance is generous old rose with definite grapefruit in the mix. Kordes outdid themselves with this one.💓💓 7:45 I want an Ethelberger! Probably not available in the USA. 12:14 Yes, I choose plants primarily for fragrance, my African Queen, Big Brother, Conca D'Or and Mrs Schlieman are taller than I am and loaded up with huge buds, THEY create a large cloud of fragrance. These oriental lilies are must have. Thank you for sharing, it helps us to decide what to grow.🌹🌹🌹
I can’t argue with that. They are also amongst my oldest. A year or two on the others and I think front and back will be more balanced.. I hope. :) many thanks
Wow! 😍Pomponella from Kordes is beautiful, lots of cheerful buds. I should take time to take care of mine, it’s not growing nice. My Earth Angel is looking so glorious Jay. She’s supposed to be rain resistant inspite of looking so fragile. Rose St. Ethelburga looks very lovely. Your Spicy Parfuma looks better than mine. I dug mine out of the ground and planted it in the pot for rehabilitation.🌹🌹🌹
Hi Gemma yes earth angel not proving too weather resistant for me I have to say. I wish it was. Mines not exactly a baby now either! But we will see. Yes give your Pomponella some care :) I do like mine
Your garden is looking great Jay. I purchased 'Elizabeth' this weekend and I agree with you it's a superb Rose indeed. Mine was grown by C&K who supply my local GC.
Wow! What a fantastic tour of your beautiful garden Jay Jay. You say you can smell the perfume of your roses down the road; I can smell them over here a few miles away. You've certainly got lovely healthy roses, well done. I know of another Eden rose climbing on a house not too far away from you. Other side of G.G heading to H'n on the right hand side on a cottage, perhaps half a mile or so past Cr's Lane.. I've always admired it so asked what it was. Nice that the roses have cheered you up a bit. Waiting for Plan B. P.
Stunning as always Jay Jay. My Brother Cadfael is only now waking up as well. It has one of the nicest fragrances out of all my roses. We had a huge hailstorm on Saturday and the whole garden looked white as if covered in snow. Weather is all over the place.
My favourite at the moment is Rose de Rescht. I saw a mature (50 year old) specimen at The Old Rose Nursery at Northiam near Rye. Also saw one at Doddington Place gardens. Such an amazing rose and the perfume is incredible, can also use it to make jam. Jason at Fraser Valley Rose nursery has recommended this one too on his UA-cam videos.
Hi Helen. I just drove past Doddington place gardens, twice! We use to walk our dogs all around there a few years back when we lived in Newnham. The jam sounds lovely :)
We visited two weeks ago and the gardens are gorgeous, we were shocked how huge the hedges are and how they cut them. My Rose de Rescht is a baby so I only have one bud, once it grows I am looking forward to the jam.
I Live in the Netherlands and uncles Toms tonic is not available here, nor can it be ordered from the UK to here. What a shame...I love your roses Jay Jay!
Hi there. Yea I forgot to say this is Edens 2nd flush just starting. The first rose in my garden to start 2nd flush. Mine is potted of course which isn’t ideal, but still doing very well and I’m happy with it. Thank you
Jay Jay your garden looking great , on a side note I have 2 year old Penelope Lively planted in a large pot and its doing really well , over 5ft tall with lots of flowers and bud.
@@Jay_Jay there is no secret it just pot luck some David Austin roses do well in some location and some don't for instance I have 3 bring me sunshine roses and they are short climber over 8ft tall while Olivia Rose Austin which I have 2 has not managed to bloom anywhere near compared to yours.
I forgot to comment on Gav's lovely photos. Aicha was a new one on me - I see it's got a strong fragrance too. Whiter Shade of Pale is a very beautiful and fragrant rose. I bought Apricot Queen Elizabeth last autumn on the strength of the JParkers photo, but mine so far looks more like Gav's, a stronger coloured yellow and red, but I still like it as a shapely rose - maybe if we see any sun, the colouring will get paler!
Hi Nik Aicha is available for first time UK I think via Trevor White. Check it out. AQE been amazing for a £6 Rose, I have 2. AWSOP also great. ATB Gav
@@gavinparry5426 Hi Gav, Yes the JParkers £6 roses can be a real bargain - that's where I got my Sweet Honeys - and a lot of other roses. The problem is that over the past 2 years I have gone overboard a bit on the rose-buying front and really have too many roses (did I really just write that?) for the size of my garden. The idea was to try a large number of roses and keep the ones I like. But you need to grow them for a couple of years at least to judge, don't you? And actually getting rid of a rose is a brutal wrench! I still have a list of roses I really want though, but my wife's tolerance is wearing thin. You should have seen her face when a rose arrived yesterday, pursed lips and "the look"! Fortunately for me it was a Father's Day present I was not responsible for, so I escaped unscathed, unfortunately it was not one on my list, but sometimes a rose you don't know can turn out to be amazing, and a rose you really wanted can be a disappointment. Anyway, recommendations are always welcome - I am still compiling my list!
@@nikkonch Haha Nik. Fully agree. Always room for one more! Have you got Elizabeth (DA) ? I bought it last week at a local GC using my 15% off voucher so £29.99 came down to £25.49. All DA's at my GC are grown byC&K , always very happy with their Roses. I'm VERY impressed with this Rose Elizabeth, Nik. ATB Gav
@@gavinparry5426 Yes, Gav. I bought Elizabeth 18 months ago. I really loved her last year, but she's been a bit covered up by other plants so far this year. I moved her pot this week to give her more space to do her thing - she seems to have bulked up quite a lot this year, so hopefully more flowers! I had a look at C&K - they seem to have a good selection.
Morning jayjay. Fantastic roses as always. I like your idea of a reduced amount of rose tonic. I have to admit I stopped using it as a lot of the david austin roses didn't like it and got leaf scorch, so I'm going to try a half measure as the black spot is appearing since stopping. I went to david austins and came back with princess Alexandra of kent, a hydrangea and Gabriel oak. Gabriel oak grabbed my attention all day and I loved it in david austin rose garden but since getting it home it's just too bright for me lol. I think I will lift it and pot it around the side of the house lol. I planned bringing home Olivia as always and Emily bronte, but came back with neither. Huge regret and feel I've wasted my money this time. The hydrangea was not needed, and Gabriel oak coaxed me to buy it lol. I will never learn my lesson and I will have to go back to rectify my mistake very soon 🤣
H Davena, before you lift Gabriel oak just consider the fact that if temps were in the 20’s or above now the sun would be diluting the colour on many of my DA roses. I was meant to say this in the video but forgot! The lower day time temps 12-16 degrees is good enough for fragrance but cool enough to magnify the colours of the da roses I believe. Yes the weather this year so far playing into the hands of many da roses I honestly believe that. I could be wrong but I’ve never seen such deep colour hold steady from my da roses. An ordinary year there would be an amount of fade which sometimes helps, sometimes hinders. So consider that. Sorry to hear about your purchases but I honestly think youve got some cracking roses there. Something to think about anyway.
@Jay_Jay thanks so much for that. Princess alexandra of kent is lovely as an aged rose but the young buds and blooms are again too bright for me..that did in fact get moved the next day and looks so much better in its new location, now its not staring at me through the patio doors 😂
My Penelope isnt doing great this year too, I think it's just the weather. "Kordesias" are known to hate any foliage sprays and they do get very specific type of fungal disease from it. Love your Eustacia Vye! I wish mine looked like that, but it's tiny and won't flower much for whatever reason...Emma Hamilton is my best performer this year, just a ton of flowers and fragrance from it 😱
Yes you could well be right. Some kordes seem uneffected so far, I’ve a Meilland that is effected. I’m still trying to work it out. Where do you get this info from vorong? I can’t disagree with you but it’s only rose feed pretty much but in spray form?
Absolutely gorgeous roses! My Westerland is just as clean leafed as yours but i find here it doesn't need spray. It is growing under a tall evergreen tree that has been limbed up, so it gets 9-11am and 4-7pm sun. Mine has a few less blooms per spray but with less light and tree roots under it, i'm not surprised. My Gertrude is down to one cane due to black spot killing her. So in a couple weeks i will shovel prune her and plant Scentuous in her place. I have a big bag of garden soil to replace the soil ill remove per your expert consultation. I found your 100 pound fee very reasonable and hope you enjoy the 100 pound gift card to Kordes Roses! "folks i'm joking" She is a grafted rose and i'm waiting for her canes to get long enough to use my deep planting method. I'm still toying with the idea of doing a short video on UA-cam and Instagram for it. I hope you try one rose that way and see for yourself how wonderful it is to have a grafted rose live for more than 10 years. Have, a lovely day!
Hi there and thank you. Sorry to hear about your Gertrude. But scentious is a great rose also I hear. Yes deep planting in my climate may well be possible but the risk I’m told of rotting the bud Union from wet soil. I look forward to your video I have got alerts on!!!! We just need bring your own sun to upload some of his lovely roses aswell!:)
Looking good, Jay Jay, despite the recent weather. Luckily it's early in the season so we will get a lot more new growth over the next months. Yes, I noticed my Elizabeth had really bulked up this year too - looking less like a cheeky little girl and more like Queen Elizabeth I with her huge billowing dresses dotted with Tudor roses. I've moved its pot a bit to give it more space. Gabriel Oak and Eustacia Vye are real workhorses - I just checked and they were both released in 2019 - clearly a golden year for new roses. Last year my wife was always saying she disliked EV because of the yellow centre, but so far this year that has been almost absent so far - is it the weather, the season or maturity in the rose? Talking of colour, I was getting confused last autumn because Sweet Honey was pink (I checked my videos taken then) - why name a pink rose Honey? - but this spring it is clearly yellow/apricot. Roses are just so unpredictable, taking different shapes as they develop and different colours at different times in the year, and scents which come and go from hour to hour. Anyway, you have some lovely roses there. You keep on showing me wonderful roses I haven't got, tempting me to buy them - keep up the good work!
Hi nik. Yes Elizabeth I’m very happy with as you know. Just personal preference I think as I’ve said before. And always a bonus when I get that strong fragrance from her (which for my nose is not often!) Sweet honey I never saw mine pink i have to say. I’m just hoping mine makes a recovery for next year. It certainly had a decent rootball transfered so I’m hoping it will be good and business as normal next year. Thanks nik
@@Jay_Jay My Sweet Honeys were bare root last spring and got to a very good height and were flowering freely that same summer, so I reckon yours should be up and running later this summer not next year. Especially if we get some decent weather!
@@nikkonchI would have agreed with you 100 percent nik. Mine flew straight off the bat when planted originally. But since the move mine is not seeing that really chunky chunky new growth or any signs of it coming through. I think the roots are still settling since the move.
Wow, finally Jasmina and Amadeus on roll. Fantastic garden and flowers colours are intense this year. Gabriel oak and Eustacia Vye just stunning. Which one is most fragrant one apart from Gertrude.?
Most fragrant rose i have ever smelt is quatre saisons which i have .. i kept smelling it 4-5 times & i started feeling a little dizzy because of it’s overwhelming intense damask fragrance.. too powerful
@@user-be5xr9zc6p Quatre Saisons or Autumn damask known as fragrant at core. I can relate it with Edwardsii/ Neumann rose found here in India which is believed to be result of hybridisation of Quatre Saisons and Old Blush and very fragrant or I can say all day fragrant. You can relate Gertrude Jekyll in modern rose have all day strong damask fragrance.
Hi Jayjay. What a lovely video . Wonder if Donnas fav flower is because vase life? Ask her for me? Or color? I’m gambling it on case life. Your roses look absolutely amazing ! I just filmed a video but have not posted it as of yet due to the fact I was trying to feed and water before the heat set in! It’s going to be a hot one today. I also have loons fairytale ! Not in a standard and it hasn’t bloomed for me yet. I got it as a bareroot late in season. It’s looking pretty good except the saw fly got to it. It’s rampant here in these parts. I like when you give us alternate names to the roses . Thanks for that! Now I see why you said what you said about my eden. I honestly think you should put it in ground! With a support . Perhaps an obelisk ? Think about it. You know Sherlock knows her shtuff. Hope your alternate plan works out for you. Tell Donna I said hello. I like when she pops in!
Hi Sherlock, :) Yes uetersen is her favourite for the colour I’m sad to say. I rarely cut that rose for cut flowers I couldn’t tell you how long they last. But it is a rose that you will see gets packed with buds. The flowers still look good even when they are past there best. (In the garden at least.) I hope you have good luck with yours. Eden rose yes mine is potted. Sadly I don’t have room for it in the ground anywhere. I tried it in part shade in the ground but it didn’t work for me. So it went potted. A great rose and one that’s seeing its second flush now. I’m still very happy with it despite it being potted. Great flowers as you well know. I look forward to seeing your new video. 🌹🌹
I hit mine with dormancy oil just before they wake up. And only a little horticulture oil if somthing gets out of hand. And try and grow beneficials. Im an oasis. For good and bad. 90% around me is concrete. 330 sq ft in NYC
Hi there. Yes Audrey Wilcox I have two. I went to the garden centre one day looking for my favourite rose on the day and Audrey Wilcox was it! Mine should be much bigger but I do have a habit of cutting it for friends and family. Great rose. Thanks for dropping by. :)
Hi Jay... I don't know about Earth Angel...due to the wet weather in Ireland...it does not fully open...it's a pity cause it looks lovely in gardens in USA...My spicy parfuma performs better even in wet june weather.
Wow, Jay Jay!!! Champagne Moment looks stunning 🌹❤️🙌 Wonderful collection of roses in your garden! Thank you 🌹❤️
I regret not filming it today it looks even better! Thanks once again Dilly.
They are beautiful!
Beautiful roses ! They look fantastic !

And actually getting rid of a rose is a brutal wrench! I still have a list of roses I really want though, but my wife's tolerance is wearing thin. You should have seen her face when a rose arrived yesterday, pursed lips and "the look"! Fortunately for me it was a Father's Day present I was not responsible for, so I escaped unscathed, unfortunately it was not one on my list, but sometimes a rose you don't know can turn out to be amazing, and a rose you really wanted can be a disappointment. Anyway, recommendations are always welcome - I am still compiling my list!
@@nikkonch Haha Nik. Fully agree. Always room for one more!
Have you got Elizabeth (DA) ? I bought it last week at a local GC using my 15% off voucher so £29.99 came down to £25.49. All DA's at my GC are grown byC&K , always very happy with their Roses. I'm VERY impressed with this Rose Elizabeth, Nik. ATB Gav
@@gavinparry5426 Yes, Gav. I bought Elizabeth 18 months ago. I really loved her last year, but she's been a bit covered up by other plants so far this year. I moved her pot this week to give her more space to do her thing - she seems to have bulked up quite a lot this year, so hopefully more flowers! I had a look at C&K - they seem to have a good selection.
Morning jayjay. Fantastic roses as always. I like your idea of a reduced amount of rose tonic. I have to admit I stopped using it as a lot of the david austin roses didn't like it and got leaf scorch, so I'm going to try a half measure as the black spot is appearing since stopping. I went to david austins and came back with princess Alexandra of kent, a hydrangea and Gabriel oak. Gabriel oak grabbed my attention all day and I loved it in david austin rose garden but since getting it home it's just too bright for me lol. I think I will lift it and pot it around the side of the house lol. I planned bringing home Olivia as always and Emily bronte, but came back with neither. Huge regret and feel I've wasted my money this time. The hydrangea was not needed, and Gabriel oak coaxed me to buy it lol. I will never learn my lesson and I will have to go back to rectify my mistake very soon 🤣
H Davena, before you lift Gabriel oak just consider the fact that if temps were in the 20’s or above now the sun would be diluting the colour on many of my DA roses. I was meant to say this in the video but forgot! The lower day time temps 12-16 degrees is good enough for fragrance but cool enough to magnify the colours of the da roses I believe. Yes the weather this year so far playing into the hands of many da roses I honestly believe that. I could be wrong but I’ve never seen such deep colour hold steady from my da roses. An ordinary year there would be an amount of fade which sometimes helps, sometimes hinders. So consider that. Sorry to hear about your purchases but I honestly think youve got some cracking roses there. Something to think about anyway.
@Jay_Jay thanks so much for that. Princess alexandra of kent is lovely as an aged rose but the young buds and blooms are again too bright for me..that did in fact get moved the next day and looks so much better in its new location, now its not staring at me through the patio doors 😂
My Penelope isnt doing great this year too, I think it's just the weather. "Kordesias" are known to hate any foliage sprays and they do get very specific type of fungal disease from it. Love your Eustacia Vye! I wish mine looked like that, but it's tiny and won't flower much for whatever reason...Emma Hamilton is my best performer this year, just a ton of flowers and fragrance from it 😱
Yes you could well be right. Some kordes seem uneffected so far, I’ve a Meilland that is effected. I’m still trying to work it out. Where do you get this info from vorong? I can’t disagree with you but it’s only rose feed pretty much but in spray form?
Absolutely gorgeous roses! My Westerland is just as clean leafed as yours but i find here it doesn't need spray. It is growing under a tall evergreen tree that has been limbed up, so it gets 9-11am and 4-7pm sun. Mine has a few less blooms per spray but with less light and tree roots under it, i'm not surprised. My Gertrude is down to one cane due to black spot killing her. So in a couple weeks i will shovel prune her and plant Scentuous in her place. I have a big bag of garden soil to replace the soil ill remove per your expert consultation. I found your 100 pound fee very reasonable and hope you enjoy the 100 pound gift card to Kordes Roses! "folks i'm joking" She is a grafted rose and i'm waiting for her canes to get long enough to use my deep planting method. I'm still toying with the idea of doing a short video on UA-cam and Instagram for it. I hope you try one rose that way and see for yourself how wonderful it is to have a grafted rose live for more than 10 years. Have, a lovely day!
Hi there and thank you. Sorry to hear about your Gertrude. But scentious is a great rose also I hear.
Yes deep planting in my climate may well be possible but the risk I’m told of rotting the bud Union from wet soil.
I look forward to your video I have got alerts on!!!! We just need bring your own sun to upload some of his lovely roses aswell!:)
Looking good, Jay Jay, despite the recent weather. Luckily it's early in the season so we will get a lot more new growth over the next months. Yes, I noticed my Elizabeth had really bulked up this year too - looking less like a cheeky little girl and more like Queen Elizabeth I with her huge billowing dresses dotted with Tudor roses. I've moved its pot a bit to give it more space. Gabriel Oak and Eustacia Vye are real workhorses - I just checked and they were both released in 2019 - clearly a golden year for new roses. Last year my wife was always saying she disliked EV because of the yellow centre, but so far this year that has been almost absent so far - is it the weather, the season or maturity in the rose? Talking of colour, I was getting confused last autumn because Sweet Honey was pink (I checked my videos taken then) - why name a pink rose Honey? - but this spring it is clearly yellow/apricot. Roses are just so unpredictable, taking different shapes as they develop and different colours at different times in the year, and scents which come and go from hour to hour. Anyway, you have some lovely roses there. You keep on showing me wonderful roses I haven't got, tempting me to buy them - keep up the good work!
Hi nik. Yes Elizabeth I’m very happy with as you know. Just personal preference I think as I’ve said before. And always a bonus when I get that strong fragrance from her (which for my nose is not often!)
Sweet honey I never saw mine pink i have to say. I’m just hoping mine makes a recovery for next year. It certainly had a decent rootball transfered so I’m hoping it will be good and business as normal next year. Thanks nik
@@Jay_Jay My Sweet Honeys were bare root last spring and got to a very good height and were flowering freely that same summer, so I reckon yours should be up and running later this summer not next year. Especially if we get some decent weather!
@@nikkonchI would have agreed with you 100 percent nik. Mine flew straight off the bat when planted originally. But since the move mine is not seeing that really chunky chunky new growth or any signs of it coming through. I think the roots are still settling since the move.
Wow, finally Jasmina and Amadeus on roll. Fantastic garden and flowers colours are intense this year. Gabriel oak and Eustacia Vye just stunning. Which one is most fragrant one apart from Gertrude.?
Most fragrant Rakesh always a difficult one and changes as you know. This afternoon timeless purple and Audrey Wilcox most fragrant.
Most fragrant rose i have ever smelt is quatre saisons which i have .. i kept smelling it 4-5 times & i started feeling a little dizzy because of it’s overwhelming intense damask fragrance.. too powerful
@@user-be5xr9zc6p Quatre Saisons or Autumn damask known as fragrant at core. I can relate it with Edwardsii/ Neumann rose found here in India which is believed to be result of hybridisation of Quatre Saisons and Old Blush and very fragrant or I can say all day fragrant. You can relate Gertrude Jekyll in modern rose have all day strong damask fragrance.
Hi Jayjay. What a lovely video . Wonder if Donnas fav flower is because vase life? Ask her for me? Or color? I’m gambling it on case life.
Your roses look absolutely amazing ! I just filmed a video but have not posted it as of yet due to the fact I was trying to feed and water before the heat set in! It’s going to be a hot one today.
I also have loons fairytale ! Not in a standard and it hasn’t bloomed for me yet. I got it as a bareroot late in season. It’s looking pretty good except the saw fly got to it. It’s rampant here in these parts.
I like when you give us alternate names to the roses . Thanks for that!
Now I see why you said what you said about my eden. I honestly think you should put it in ground! With a support . Perhaps an obelisk ? Think about it. You know Sherlock knows her shtuff. Hope your alternate plan works out for you. Tell Donna I said hello. I like when she pops in!
Hi Sherlock, :)
Yes uetersen is her favourite for the colour I’m sad to say. I rarely cut that rose for cut flowers I couldn’t tell you how long they last. But it is a rose that you will see gets packed with buds. The flowers still look good even when they are past there best. (In the garden at least.) I hope you have good luck with yours. Eden rose yes mine is potted. Sadly I don’t have room for it in the ground anywhere. I tried it in part shade in the ground but it didn’t work for me. So it went potted. A great rose and one that’s seeing its second flush now. I’m still very happy with it despite it being potted. Great flowers as you well know. I look forward to seeing your new video. 🌹🌹
Rose companies should be sponsoring you considering the sales you must earn them with the quality of your blooms and healthy foliage!
Too kind I’m pretty sure I haven’t earn any of them a penny. But thanks for your kind words. :)
@@Jay_Jayyes you did.. i ordered wedding piano & 14 others after watching your video on you visiting Eastcroft roses
I hit mine with dormancy oil just before they wake up.
And only a little horticulture oil if somthing gets out of hand.
And try and grow beneficials. Im an oasis. For good and bad.

Love Audrey wilcox, never hear of many of yours. How many varieties do you have? Love the channel and the garden☆
Hi there. Yes Audrey Wilcox I have two. I went to the garden centre one day looking for my favourite rose on the day and Audrey Wilcox was it! Mine should be much bigger but I do have a habit of cutting it for friends and family. Great rose. Thanks for dropping by. :)
Hi Jay... I don't know about Earth Angel...due to the wet weather in Ireland...it does not fully open...it's a pity cause it looks lovely in gardens in USA...My spicy parfuma performs better even in wet june weather.
That’s great to hear your spicy is doing well. Yeah earth angel I’m still waiting for it to throw a breathtaking flower this year.
Great garden. Iam in the stated and grow a lot of mini- floras most are 4' by 5' . I would love to co.pare thoughts.
Hi there. I’ll be honest I’ve never heard of mini floras. But 4-5’ sounds decent size to me and I do like grandifloras. :)
I just planted some roses in the pots, should I bring them in the garage over the winter? Water?
Hello...i wat hed your video as i have a good few rose bushes in garden.
How do you get rid of black spot??
