Should I be concerned?

This is Emily Brontë planted bare root in March if this year. Gave a decent flush in the spring but the new growth look like this? Other than the stunted leaves, I don’t see the classic dreaded disease characteristics: excessive thorns, cluster of deformed canes etc. I’m tempted to just pull it out as I have a small garden with tons of roses planted close but I want to hear what you guys think first. Pic 5 I bent the cane so you can see the underside.TIA

How do you grow miniature roses?

Can anyone give me any advice? I always see these miniature roses at grocery stores and they’re so beautiful I always get them, but then they die… do they grow in containers, or are they meant to grow in the ground?

New Own root Heirloom Roses Winter care query

Hello Everyone,

I recently purchased heirloom roses which arrived at my place in Toronto this week. Now with fall and then winters around the corner, would it be advisable to put them in the ground OR let them be in the containers they arrived in during the winter and ground them next spring ?

Suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Rosa sem sol

Comprei uma roseira online mas como eu já esperava ela veio abatida por causa do estresse da viagem, hoje é o segundo dia e suas folhas continuam caindo, acredito que não devo molhar enquanto estiver úmida e nem expor diretamente no sol, já passaram por algo assim? Que medidas eu devo tomar para ela se recuperar?

What rose could this be? It blooms at the beginning and end of summer, has a very subtle fragrance, and sometimes the buds have a slight pink tinge

Something you learned?

What is something you learned over the years from growing roses that you wished you had known earlier? Or, what is something you used to do that you no longer deem necessary for growing roses?

New roses from mid summer suddenly turning yellow from within.

I bought these shrub roses from a local nursery about two months ago. They are planted in full sun in my garden. Our soil is pretty heavy on clay but the side areas drain well. We are currently in a drought and I've been trying to keep everyone watered but it's difficult. I have two roses planted near each other and both are turning yellow from their inner leaves, but both pictures are of the worst looking bush.

They were fed with a slow release food upon planting and top dressed with compost. I'm new to roses and clearly am failing these ones somehow. How can I help them?

Got some questions about 20+ year old roses!

I’m trying to figure out how best to care for my parents’ roses. I read through the wiki, FAQ, and some posts on black spot so I think I have the basic care info covered. I mostly just want to identify them but I also have a couple questions. The first seven pictures are of the pink roses and the rest are of the white ones.

Pink roses:
- Bought around 2004
- On the west side of the house
- Pretty big blooms
- 10+ feet tall (the fence in the first picture is 6 feet)

White roses:
- Transplanted from my grandma’s garden around 2007
- On the south side of the house
- Smaller blooms
- 6 feet tall

Both types:
- Very mild fragrance that you can’t really smell unless your nose is within an inch or so of the bloom
- Pruned annually but honestly probably not very well
- Watered every week or so in the summer. We live in the Pacific Northwest (western Washington specifically) so it’s pretty rainy the rest of the year
- Perpetually have black spot. Sometimes get powdery mildew
- Height seems to be limited only by the pruning

Questions:

  1. Are there any glaring issues aside from the black spot?
  2. I’d like to prune them to be less tall and scraggly. What’s the best way to do that? A relative told my mom to just whack em all back to waist height but she’s afraid that will kill them.
  3. My mom would like to move the white roses a few feet away from the house this winter. Is there anything that needs to be done differently for transplanting old, established roses?

“Life of the party” - a rose that changes colour!

It opens as a yellow rose, then the edges turn light purple, the middle of the petals becomes white, but the core remains yellow. An interesting rose, and also highly fragrant.

I am devastated

I’ve experienced blood and the copious amounts of sweat…and now the tears.

I’m new to gardening in general. This was my first rose bush. I have another one more out in the open that the deer always nibble (never are every GD flower/bud) at but they leave this one alone at they used to. I put up chairs around it at night and that seems to have solved the nibbles.

She’s a Fun in the Sun and now I don’t know what to do. Help?!

Icing on the cake is that she had three large buds about bloom on top and he chomped them all off, right before we have 70+ people at our house this weekend for a bbq. I was so exited that my roses were going to be showing off!

What I have done so far: watered with morbloom in a panicked, teary rage.
