Planting A Few Bare Root Roses! 🌹😊// Garden Answer 

you did your part. the team needed a couple more touchdowns

This was fun! So fun to have long distance friends.

The Impatient Gardener that was very nice of you to send those roses! They’re beautiful!

Must say, we've all enjoyed it. Keep us in the loop about the next wager. 😂

Ladies, ladies!

Hi I live in zone 9a Fl how do you plant in my area? Any help is greatly appreciated

Thank you for sharing this info. I live in Mississippi Zone 7b so thank you !

What kind of mulch? I have been leaving some leaves on mine over the winter. The rise bush is up by my house and I have a big tree that drops leaves late fall. I have noticed the leaves blow up under the rose bushes and they grow really good in the spring. Is this good enough?

Filming is a lot of work. But they take the time to do such a beautiful job! I love it! But I'm with you, I'd never get the job done! 😊

Advertisement for the business and for the truck? I couldn't do it either.

I was just saying that to myself!!!

But we love their videos, they do it for us.

I'm sure she plans her day accordingly and has several cameras. Love it!

Yes, please address this. I'm super confused now. Pretty please!

I was confused by this as well. I've only ever planted a potted Rose and the graft union is above soil, why would it be different than a bare root rose?

I’m glad I’m not the only one confused by that. I don’t know much about grafting though so I figured she knows what she’s doing. Maybe she’ll address it in the recap video.

Ok, so I just looked it up and it is recommended if you’re planting roses in zone 5 and below to bury the grafting union to protect it from freezing temps. Zone 6 and above can plant them with the grafting union above the soil. So that confirms that she really knows what she’s doing!

David Austin roses recommends to bury the graft union below soil. I have been burying the graft union in my roses for a decade now and it works great. I know there is a big debate about to bury or not to bury.

It might be time to broaden our resources and knowledge base on "critters" and our practices that intersect with wilder ones. Your state's Dept. Of Conservation resources would be a place to start.

There is a solid reason they are bright yellow as it warns someone not to hurt themselves when they are near them.

I never knew that. Do you know what the colors mean? I’m assuming it has something to do with voltage or whether they are telephone lines or power lines?

​@@brooksstudiosgarden1615That's my point. Some are universal colors. Others vary from state to state. It's best and prudent to call your local utility company. Much love. Safety first, always.

Yep this comment needs to be PINNED, my neighbor touched the cables with a carbon fiber fishing rod and died on the spot. Everybody was shocked to find out carbon conducts electricity, his family was devastated, he was in his 40's. I really wish Laura would be more careful about this , at 700k ppl will imitate her without thinking. I really hope she doesn't end up like that chinese lady that got two girls killed with an improvised popcorn maker. When it's just you, an adult, in your backyard you get a darwin award, when you're an influencer and kids have access to your vids it gets a bit more complicated and while you can blame the parents, I think Laura is the decent type of person that would feel haunted if she ever hurt anyone.

@@HisameArtwork I've heard of these sad tragic accidents. They do happen.

YES!

K.S Brownies I read something similar 🙃

Same 😄

I did, too! Haha ❤

Jimmy Wong well they have way more fence to work with now on the new property. Maybe they’ll move the hay racks to the new fence?

Hey, that sounds like a good idea!

Stef Styl great idea thank you!!

I wondered if that might deter the gophers...

@@heartnurse0900 well they would not be a able to aet the crown

David Wall yes, I was thinking the same thing. Wire cages are the best!

I just lost 5 David Austin roses to those little critters, I'm so mad and sad at the same time.😔

Dog & Cat feces down the holes works like a charm 👍😉

David Wall I was thinking exactly the same thing. Easy to do and no risk to the roses.

Watching this a year later and I’m so thankful for that. Seeing them act normal is refreshing.

AMEN!!!!!

Oh, what a thought--"sunset to moonlight to sunrise GARDEN," New Concept in garden design. Then we could use most colors in this concept at one end or the other!

Oh wow!! I bought two Eden roses and a Gertrude Jekyll from David Austin and they are already leafed our after 2 and a half weeks.

Kim Ecker I think they recommend it for all bare root plants.

Most, do research with supplier and general resources.

Geneva Priest very true. I have never grown roses before so I was shocked to see this.

Right?!

I think she uses the biotome when planting to encourage root growth and in subsequent years she uses rose tone

Mandy Clark hi I am from Canada too. I would love to have espoma products here as well as boni de. I checked on Amazon last year and there are few options and very e pensive. I wanted to do a border run this spring but that will have to wait now 🥴.
