Prune and Train Climbing Roses 

I never got to thank you for this video. I purchased a rose unaware it was a climber and pruned it back hard. 😞 Finally I looked at the tag and saw it was a climber. After slapping my forehead and waiting a full three years its finally starting to bud again but this time I know exactly how to care for it. Crown Princess Margaretta will be as beautiful as the day I brought her home from the garden center! You need your own TV show you are informative and entertaining.

Love that you share your knowledge. I accidently propagated my double knock out pink rose when I pruned in February. I did not pick up one branch and it became it's own rose!! It even bloomed this fall!!

You are one of the few people that has the ability to clearly convey your information to an audience , great presentation, thanks for sharing................

I love how you explain everything in a concise yet in-depth way. Thank you so much for sharing your expertise.

FLAWLESS video! Excellent information and camerawork. I plant for others and love to recommend sites to clients so they understand WHAT and WHY I do things. They appreciate the information. A well informed customer always wants more and more once they understand that success is achievable because one follows a scientific process. People like to be informed, even if they haven't the time or physical strength to do the work themselves. THANK YOU!!!

So fun to watch, Jason.

Your awesome! You make things very easy to understand and follow. Very important especially for a novice! thank you!

I’ve never had climbing roses, but now I know much more about their unique quirks. Thanks!

This year I've been keeping some of the offcuts with good shoots on them and plugging them into the pots, hoping they may grow out into strong new plants on their own roots, rather than grafted ones. So far, in mid winter here (Australia) as buds are beginning to fatten, they're looking pretty vital and still growing. Never can tell what may grow from a cutting. and I hate to waste good shooting stems with so much life in them still. Thanks for these videos, always something more to learn, very encouraging!

Such a helpful video! Really appreciate all the info and the really clear video. Getting to see where an experienced pruner takes their cuts is a big help! Can't wait to get my climbing roses in place and start training them!

The most helpful video on this I've seen. Thankyou!

One of my favorite aspects of your videos is the calming mountainous background. Would be cool to see a video of you someday discussing how the local topographies benefit your rose farm :)

Wow. You are so detail and explaining in regards to plants what to do and how to do it. Thank you so much. Tomorrow I’m going to take a good look at my Roses. I feel this year I will have some beautiful blooms thanks to you. 🌷🌸🌈

Thank you for the clear explanations - much appreciated!

Brilliant, Jason. Many thanks.

I learned a lot, you are a really good teacher, thanks!

All mind-boggoling doubts removed and pruned to perfection--thank you!

This was another great! Video TY!! I just love roses & have many wild & climbing ones in my yard. I’m slowly & surely learning how to care for them so thanks for all the tips!

I planted a climber for the first time. Thank you for your tips, learned a lot.

fascinating and so much good information, much to ponder including layering and pegging!

AMAZING VIDEO! Thank you for making sound so easy for some who has zero experience with gardening. LOVE this video!

This was So useful. Thank you so much. I feel much more knowledgeable now about how to train a climbing rose!

This is sooo useful video, thank you so much, learn a lot.. Will do with my climbing rose here ☺

Jason, I know this is older but I'm binge watching sense I only joined a year ago, I'm trying to see what I missed. Anyway I watched your video introducing good climbers and this is great to know stuff after you get your climber. Thank you so much for making it clear for us.

Thank you for that professional and very informative presentation.

I would like to thank you sharing not just your knowledge but the experience especially about Canadian roses garden 😊💯👍👍👍

So much information to absorb. Thank you.

Thank you for sharing detailed tips. I really appreciate it! I think you gave me the courage to Prune my climber.

This channel is too undervalued. There’s many gardening channels and many of them are useful, but many talk so loud and so aggressively excited, that you get anxiety watching them. This guy just spits nothing but facts and great info in a very calm way, I can listen forever. Definitely trying this trick coming season.

I LOVE your video! Thank you for sharing it. Very very helpful! 😊

Thank you my teacher , very educate film

Hi Jason another very informative and helpful video as ever. Stay safe to you and all your family. Take care Natalie 😁

newbie rose grower here. Really appreciated this vid. Well done! Cheers from Guelph, ON. (always nice to hear the Canadian accent, btw)

Thank you Jason! I've got a few Generous Gardener and Claire Austin and one Don Juan that I'll learn from this year - they are still so young that I don't yet have this much canvas to work with. I was thinking of getting Altissima in the coming year - thanks for helping me understand roses better. Warmest regards Jennie

That was very informative. I learned a lot from this video!

Thank you. One of the most detailed and well explained videos yet for climbing roses.

Great video! Very informative! Thank you!

Excellent tutorial, thank you!🌹🌞💐

I really appreciate all your information!!!!

Again, this really helped. Thank you.

I went through and have watched multiple videos on climbing roses. This video is for sure the BEST and most informational. Thank you for taking the time to give us beginners all this good info!

I just got a trellis made yesterday bc I brought a peach color climbing rose bush ❤thanks so much for making this video. I have now learned how to train my bush😊❤. Happy gardening you guys.

Excellent explanation. Thanks!

Great video. Beautiful area and lovely weather.

Excellent presentation!

Great video

Thank you so much for explaining! I've learned a ton from your channel! :)

Brief, clear, and so much gardening knowledge given in just a video. Its like just a snap, an overnight magic🙃 and I can prune my own roses. Yes, i am confident. Im gonna to prune my roses this weekend. Thanks to you.

Gosh I learned so much! Thanks so much for this!

Thank you so much!

To get rose climbers to flower more vertically train them in a looping "s" shape

Informações muito úteis, fáceis de entender. Muito grato. Excelente canal

Omg you're amazing for teaching this. I've learned about horizontal and vertical, how many stems to keep, and why have I never thought to use jute!! I am replacing all my plastic today! I do not like plastic as it is. Thank you! 🌹

Thank you. Loved it 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I am going to apply all of your recomenedation...thank you so much...😍😊😊😊😉😉

Excellent. Thank you!

Me encanta su canal gracias por enseñarnos tan bien gracias

Thanks for your wonderful advice. Here in Puget Sound, it's great to get clear content specific to the west. Subscribed!

After 5 years if cutting down my climbing rose to the stumps to the ground, after summers if only a few flowers at the top, i knew no different.. I saw some vids kept 5 canes last week and trained along our fence.. And already new shoots are developing.. Looking forward to seeing the full results next summer... 👍

Thank you for good information 👌 👍 🙏

Cool man, thanks. I just planted some Queen Elizabeth myself. Prepared the soil real good and it's already taking off. It's only been a couple of days Haha.

Good information and I like it

I have learned so much from you! Thank you. I can’t wait to see my garden this summer after watching you🌹

Excellent video you answered my question

I just bought two rambling roses that look a mess and are like 8ft high. I have the perfect spot for them and will be planting and training them this weekend. Thank you for all your tips.

Amazing!

Thanks for this video, very informative and well presented.

My husband is gonna think I'm cheating on him because of these videos. But he buys every rose I want so there!

Fantastic thank you 😁

Very nice, thank you!

All your videos have helped me so much to grow a rose garden to honor my gardener Mom , who died of cancer ❤️. Two we planted together last summer but now I have to keep going on my own. I’m in zone 3 and planting Canadian Explorer Roses whenever I find them. Thank you 🌹

Thank you

very useful. I wish I watched this before I pruned the main cane.

Thanks for the information. You mentioned the Seven Sisters rose at the beginning of the video. My mother has my Great, Great Grandmothers Seven Sisters rose that's been passed down thru the family. It's amazing how long they can last.

Ty.

Very useful

Thank You very much. Finally I found it. In the spring I will know what to do to get my climbers to bud along the stem and branch out. I have one to three stems on my climbing rose bushes and would like to know how I can get them to create more stems at the base like how yours are. They are about five years old and unsure that since they are young they just haven't had time with a short time to grow more as my roses don't start producing new growth until late April or May when the weather is finally nice. Thank you

I enjoy watching your videos, thank you for sharing your expertise with us. Have you made a video about when to transplant a climbing rose in zone 8? Do you think it would be OK to move a climbing rose bush at this time in zone 8?This week we are going to be int upper 80's to mid 90's. I know is better to transplant a rose during the fall but I am afraid that if I wait until then the plant would be too big for me to handle. I just noticed that young climbing rose bush about 2 weeks ago, it seems the plant developed out of a steam that got buried under the dirt without me noticing it (I do not remember planting it). The reason I need to move it is because it kind of blocks the gate entrance to my yard, it definitely needs a better location. Your help is greatly appreciated.

My own favorite rose for fragrance is Tropicana, a hybrid tea.

We had a climbing rose don't know the name or type It had red flowers I loved it but my husband hated it after a year or Two he would cut it to the ground and it would grow back lush and beautiful a couple times he tried digging it up it was faithful it grew back after 23 yrs it finally died Best plant I ever had.

you explain things so well... NoNo Nannette

I have Julia child and iceberg , they bloom during the whole season , very beautiful.

I have a 3 year old DA Spirit of Freedom that is put of control. Now I know what to do from your video. Thank you

Hi Jason I followed your pruning and training advice last year and the results were outstanding. So many more blooms, thank you. One question, do the very tips of the lateral stems continue to grow horizontally and put out even more buds on new growth this year? Your videos give me such confidence, keep them coming. Thanks Wendy

Thank you for the video. I have a climbing rose that has been growing against our chicken run for years. I planted it there after buying it on clearance nearly dead and had no idea what it was. It has grown like crazy and thrives. Anyway, it has such a tangle of vines up on top of the run but many I can't reach to remove. However, there are at least a half dozen brand new vertical shoots this year on it and I've been trying to figure out what to do with them. I didn't want to lop them all off but your suggestion about training them horizontally is brilliant. I will get to work on that tomorrow. We planted a new white climbing rose on the other side of the run this year and I was SHOCKED that there are NO climbing roses locally to be bought. I don't know why they're sold out everywhere but they are. I was so disappointed. It's made me look into propagating roses which is where I stumbled on your channel. I have thought about attempting to propagate roses many times but never tried so this year we're going for it. We have a peach climbing rose that has extreme growth. There was a barn in the back that it was planted against and it grew up over the roof but I removed all but the original carport and it's in a strange place for such a gorgeous rose. I am trying to get more of that to put against the other barns or even on another side of the chicken run or another chicken run. I do love roses. I love your channel. Thanks again! :)

Thank you. We have several climbers, namely New Dawn, Viking Queen and Sally Holmes to tend to this week. Will see if we can extend the canes on Louise Odier and Yolande d’Aragon horizontally though space might be an issue.

Wow

Perfect timing, so thanks! Today is my day to go out and give care to my Sombreuil. It will be blooming in about a month and I always get that initial flustery moment. Do you have a Sombreuil or have you ever trained one? I always feel like I could do better but I really haven't ever found an end result picture of all it's potential. I mostly can only find close ups. Would love a video on that type of climber if possible.

jeepers, your backdrop suggests you are in cape town south africa...with table mountain and lions head as your backdrop... strange...lol.... thank you for most excellent professional video....

Very informational. I'm excited about the upcoming rose growing season here in Dallas. One question on climbing roses. Can you cut the end of a branch to stop the horizontal spread of the rose?

Thank you for the clear and specific tutorial. You mentioned flowering shoots when you eliminated a branch that was growing forward. How do you identify a flowering shoot versus a leaf bud or shoot?

I really like your videos. Very informative! I just ordered a Quicksilver Climbing Rose. What kind of trellis do you recommend to accommodate the horizontal canes? I have one that is 24" W x 72" H. Thank you!

Hi Jason, I learned so much from your videos! My roses leaves keeps getting bugs likes aphis, holes and turned yellow. I been using neem oil, but not working. Also my climbing roses not have any blooming for 2 years now. Any advice and guidance really appreciate!

Hi, I learned so much today! Thanks for the detailed info regarding climbing roses. I'm so glad I found your channel, you just answered so many questions I had regarding climbing roses. How many years have you had this particular rose in a container? Will you be reporting it at some point? Thank you! P.S. I love the clouds in your videos, they seem almost within reach!

Hi Jason. I love your channel, you have such thoughtful, informative content that is really useful to me. I would like to ask you a question, if you can spare the time. How do you go about determining how large of a support is needed for a climbing rose? I bought the climbing sport of Belinda’s Dream last year and have come to realize that the arbor that i bought to let it grow on is way, way too small. The rose at maturity for my area (zone 8 central Alabama) can get to be 15-20 feet tall and the arbor that it’s on is 2’x6’. Thanks in advance for your advice and I hope you have a happy and successful New Year 😊!
