We covered do a light summer trimming in the video "Summer Rose Cleanup". But what about feeding, watering, spraying in summer? This video gives you some tips on that and more summer care for your roses.
I agree with everybody. Isn't he the best you tuber!! I have watched several of his videos over and over. He is such a joy to watch and listen to. I wish we had someone like him where I live to do workshops. I would never miss.
This is extremely helpful. I have just started the grow roses and you explained a lot of basics here that I've not heard or found elsewhere. Thank you.
Paul Zimmerman Roses first time gardener here. I love it! it has truly become my moving meditation. thanks to you're tips, my j&p roses are growing great! thank you.
I am new to this😊but I love the way you explain what has to be done. my question is, " What should I do if anything to the main brach if it has a serious bruse at the base?
Awesome , and funny as usual, i really did learn something on watering, as i am very insecure about that part, I'm afraid to love my roses to death, so I'll back off on the watering. Thanks Paul :)
Your vids are so awesome man! I agree with others, you are very charming and informative, your opinions are very important to us Rose growers. Keep up the great work!
i should have watched your videos earlier this day - really informative in an entertaining way!while getting tons of weeds out of my grandparent's rose bed i git rid of all the mulch as well... its pretty hot and windy this time of the year (in greece) and now im wondering if lawn clippings would be a good idea. i wont get any wood mulch around here. what do you suggest?
I live in Mauritius, and it's basically summer all year long here. Gets a little cooler for about 3 month, starting June or so. Would the same rules apply? Especially about the choice of fertilizer?
We get enough rain fall that I don't worry about watering the roses. But if you have to just water the perennials as you normally would and that should take care of the roses. Keep in mind roses don't like wet feet and infrequent deep watering is best.
My roses live in a constant supply of Nitrogen, coffee grounds for mulch. Nitrogen naturally drops in October. This is obvious when my Cosmos finally blooms in October. My composters are (2) Rex rabbits.
@@Mike-om4tv No, studies have shown that once coffee is brewed it is fairly neutral. My soil is acidic which roses like. I have the grounds on top of cardboard. I always know when the deer have visited bc I see their hoof prints:-)
@@Mike-om4tv I just transplanted a rose, Melody Parfumee by Weeks. I moved it from the south garden where it got limited sun to the north east garden where it'll get morning sun. I placed it in my Alfalfa field. I had to cut a square in cardboard and coffee grounds bc I've been preparing this site for my roses. Ever since I came back from a (2) day visit at CA's Huntington rose garden I decided to group colors. I am constantly snipping my roses so I won't really be pressed to by new ones to fill in the lines. Melody has such a nice fragrance and a beautiful array of purples when she is in bloom.
Paul what should I do if I did not bury my grafted roses deep enough?-mine are at least 2 inches above the soil-should I mound the dirt up around them?? My own root roses are fine, they were easy to plant as youngsters-it's the older grafted I am worried about.
Hi just bought compost and bought Neopeat (is it good as mulch)? thats all they had :L . It says High moisture retention. Improves physical & biological condition of soil.... And that you should Add 18 to 22 ltrs. of water per bale of 4.5 kg. Should i follow the instructions? or i just spread it out like you did the mulch then water it? Thanks so much :)
I need help. I want to begin composting. Would you be able to make a video on beginning a compost pile or container and how to add and mix? Thanks for your videos!
I was going to ask if horse manure could be used and than Aussie (so) appeared! What kind of horse/pony/mini donkey is your 'compact' model. So cute. I always hear cow manure mentioned and just wondered what the difference could possibly be with horse manure.
He's passed now but he was a miniature mule. Funny little guy. He was a rescue. Any kind of manure works as long as it's composted. I just horse because we have lots of it.
Thank you for your great videos, my husband and I enjoy watching you..I am having a hard time finding a lime and sulfur spray...Could you suggest a common brand to buy? We have 21 roses in our garden, and fighting black spot is a full time job in Oklahoma...Thank you in advance! Looking forward to more rose videos...:)
Paul, in one of your videos regarding covering an arbor with roses, you mentioned that it was a good idea to use several climbing roses. I have a white arbor and I live in zone 5, but I can't seem to find any roses that are tall enough to make it to the top of the arbor, which is like 10 or 12 feet tall. I'm not picky on the color, but I would like something that repeats and is hardy for our region. Any suggestions?
There isn't much you can do outside of digging them up and planting them deeper. You can do that in late winter when you prune them. How old are the roses?
Paul Zimmerman Roses just a quick question do the roses go back with new systems I'm asking because the one from last year is dead there are new stems and leaves growing on the side of the dead one
