June 9, 2021Q.Help With New Climbing Rose
I am a complete novice and purchased a climbing rose from a nursery. I watched on you tube how you attach the main canes to shape the plant and the off shoots produce the roses. There are three main canes on my plant but all three have been cut or pruned.do i need to remove them all at the base and start afresh and when should i do it. Or should i just buy another one that doesn't have the main canes cut. Many thanks colm.

Certified ExpertA.No, it is best not to prune at all for the first two or three years while the rose is forming a root system. This article explains:

Certified ExpertA.If this isn't fed, frequently, then this is likely the issue.
Roses are heavy feeders, and will require feeding quite often.

June 27, 2021Q.Can I Plant A Climbing Rose In A 40cm Deep Planter?
I have a David Austin Constance Spry climbing rose that I want to put on the west side of the house - it does not have any soil so want to use a planter I have which is 100cm long x 40cm wide x 40cm deep. Would this be big enough for one plant and a clematis?

Certified ExpertA.I don't believe that is deep enough. And it is so wide that excess moisture may congregate and cause root rot.

August 8, 2021Q.My Dublin Bay Climbing Rose Is Suffering
My Dublin Bay some 7 years old is struggling. 2 years ago I cut out some what appeared dead or dying wood. last year it started to recover but grew strong long sucker like stems with the blooms on the top. each stem has the standard 5 leaves looking normal but no growth on long stems until the top. See images.Question, are these long stems appearing suckers and why have I so many onion type growths on the main stems.

Certified ExpertA.Repeat flowering climbing roses need to be deadheaded often to keep them blooming well. Yours needs a lot of corrective pruning, i.e., remove the dead, damaged, and crossing stems. I believe the knob with several stems emerging is a graft. Canes coming out below the graft can be removed.

Certified ExpertA.I suggest cutting back on the water. They don't need it everyday. Stick a finger in the soil and water only when the soil starts to dry. Also, add some mulch to hold in the moisture. A little manure goes a long way, and it should be composted to prevent burn. Commercially produced manure will give directions on the bag about how much to apply. If you think you may have added too much, carefully work in some topsoil.

September 30, 2021A.Depending on personal aesthetic tastes, either one or two. They tend to be anywhere from 2.5-4 metres wide. The climber is available in white but the non-climbers are available in white, pink and burgundy colors.
