Can you tell me please, how do I recognise suckers on my roses. I have a few new stems which are purple in colour and very flexible. Also they are growing rapidly and are growing just above the root.
I have a wooden arbor( 8ft (H) 5ft (W) 3 ft (L)) Could you suggest some Rose names to cover both the Top and Sides , that is heavily scented, and gets full repeating summer blooms.
How do i dead head roses?
The stems of my 5 year old Zepherine drouhin rose which flowered beautifully for the first 2 years, now all bend over at the neck when the flowers are at the bud stage. The plant looks healthy otherwise with plenty of buds. What could be causing this?
I have healty looking roses, I prune & feed but they won't flower, I get 1-2 flowers per year plant! they are planted now 3 years. please help, how can I get them to flower!
I suspect that I forgot to prune my miniature rose bushes which are planted in open soil as there are not yet, at end of May, any buds appearing. Is the end of May a bad time to do a light pruning, or should I leave it until later in the season?
Being April will I damage my rose tree transplanting now?
I have an existing hedgerow a 100metres long comprising of beech, haw thorn, holly and a couple of copper beeches. There is also some kind of wild rose in it already that we just got cuttings put them in and hoped for the best.I was hoping to add some colour by adding a climbing rose to this hedge so that it would grow through it.We are in a very windy site with acid soil but the hedge is in a sunny postion.Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
