Planting Roses
Where to plantChoosing where to plant your roses is the most important decision that will influence the longterm quality of your rose. Planting location is determined by your soil and site conditions. Roses pre-fer a sunny location getting at least 6-7 hours a day. They also require a soil that is acidic, well draining and has good water and nutrient retention, which tend to be loamy - clayey soils. Roses will perform much better in sheltered conditons, choose a location without strong winds and intense sun.
Soil ImprovementModern roses are heavy feeders and like constant moisture. Therefore they ben-efit from soil amendments before plant-ing. Add well rotted manure or garden compost to the soil 4 to 6 weeks before planting. Heavy soils may need extra grit added for drainage. Sandy/alkaline soils will be difficult to grow roses in. In this case choose a rose that can tolerate these conditions or grow roses in deep pots.
Avoid planting where other roses have been. If unavoidable replace soil with soil from another part
of the garden or fresh soil.
How to PlantThe soil should have been preprepared with soil conditioner. Dig a hole so that the union sits just above the soil. This is easier to judge if you place a straight stick across the hole. Then back fill with soil. Firm soil down lightly with a heel and wa-ter in. Tip: If ground is still frozen place a cloche hoop with polythene where you plan to plant, this will warm the soil.After CareOnce planted roses will often need wa-tering throughout spring and summer especially if planted later in the season or in containers. Water roses so that the wa-ter reaches down deep, use a soaker hose rather than sprinklers. In spring apply a thick mulch to conserve water and protect roots from temperature changes.FertilisersRoses can be fertilised in spring and again at the end of summer with a chemical rose fertiliser.SprayingRoses are infamous for their susceptibil-ity for pests and diseases. Many people keep up a regular spray programme. Lime sulphur can be used in winter and/or cop-per in spring. There are also a number of dedicated rose spray products for use throughout the season.
PruningRoses respond very well to pruning in winter. Winter is when the formative pruning is done, the rest of the year roses will need deadheading. It’s best to prune just when buds start to swell, usually July/August. On all roses remove dead diseased or crossing branches. Always prune at an angle sloping away from an outward facing bud. Most rose species and types are pruned differ-ently so it is a good idea to check what you have before pruning. For example, Hybrid teas are pruned lower than flo-ribundas to encourage vigorous new shoots.
Shrubs:Make sure the centre is open forming a vase/goblet shape. Remain shoots are then shortened, the length depends on species.Climbers: Tie in new shoots required to fill space. Prune side shoots by two thirds of their length. Prune out old unproductive growth. Shorten stems where they have outgrown their space.Rambler:Ramblers should be pruned on planting to 40cm from the ground. Then once area is well covered prune out one in three main stems to the base.
Organic RosesAt Shotover Garden Centre we believe that organic garden is not just best for your own health but also for your garden.Research has shown the intrinsic links be-tween soil life and plant health. When the soil life is disturbed or destroyed problems ensue. The best way to garden with nature is to make sure your plant will be happy where you are placing it. In other words the site fills the plants requirements. Some vari-eties of roses are more disease resistant than others so look for those varieties.
Encourage soil life by providing an environ-ment for them to thrive, you can do this by adding a top dress of well rotted manure, or home made garden compost. Make a home for worms by mulching and creating the constant temperatures and moisture soil life need. Roses thrive in fungus rich soil, a mulch with aged woodchip will increase fungus. Chemical sprays and fertilisers can kill or aggrevate soil life, which means you will have to work harder in the long run to keep your roses looking healthy. Preven-tion is key to organic garden. Making sure your soil is healthy is key to providing your plants with what they need to stay healthy amidst pests and diseases. Roses also re-spond well to organic liquid feeds like, worm wee, comfrey tea, seaweed or fish.

Ramlers & ClimbersThe main difference between ramblers and climbers are their growth and flowering. Climbers are less vigorous than ramblers and flower on the same season growth, whereas ramblers grow on previous seasons growth. Ramblers generally will grow in much more demanding con-ditions but will only flower once in the season, climbers generally do
repeat flower and look tidier.
