Climbing and shrub roses / different color blooms of Lady of Shalott rose by David Austin.

[@noellaq8056]

Thank you for explaining the changing colors of the Lady of Shallot so well …

[@OlgaCarmody]

Glad it was helpful!

[@elsagrace3893]

Very beautiful lady. I love the way you speak and demonstrate. Excellent and clear explanation of climbing and shrub and why some roses are both. Thank you for the list.

[@OlgaCarmody]

Glad it was helpful!

[@meretriciousinsolent]

I'm glad I found you. I want to get a Burnet rose and plant beside an arch but I have a feeling it will just sucker across my whole garden 😆 it'll have to go in a corner and spread left and right I think!

[@gunmetal2445]

I am glad to hear Claire Austin can be trained as a shrub. I blind bought it thinking it can be a small shrub but when I saw it was listed as a climber on websites, I thought I had made a big mistake.

[@OlgaCarmody]

Good, glad that this video got the confusion out. Happy gardening and enjoy your rose!

Dear Olga , I'm a newbie gardener with a small garden and two varieties of climbing roses which are from the wild hilly areas. I'm so glad I came across your channel and your videos. You have shared all there is to share about your fabulous climbing roses. Alas my surroundings are starkly different from yours. I love in India Rajasthan which is a very semi arid region. But my cream white coloured white climber rose has started thriving. There is a pink variety too which has not bloomed as yet. So it was a great encouragement to see you and your garden . Will be sincerely watching all your videos. 👌👌👌😍😍😍. Praise The Lord. Blessings to you always.

[@OlgaCarmody]

Thank you, and greeting to India! Enjoy your roses, I am glad they are thriving for you!

Aha! Thank you! You've just explained the difference in color I asked about in a previous video. Fascinating and beautiful! I'm so excited to see what mine do! I planted them two weeks ago, and already I'm seeing little red buds. Very hopeful.

Great channel. Well done

[@kriszingone5649]

Your videos have helped me so much understand the 2 dimensions of the Lady of Shalott rose. At first I thought it was a climber and then your videos showed how it can also be a shrub. I believe when I ordered from David Austin I ordered climber…after watching your videos and seeing your beauty I would like it to be a shrub….. will that be a problem given I ordered it as a climber? You mentioned David Austin will trim them differently. Thank you so much! I love your videos! So helpful for a new rose gardener 🌱

[@OlgaCarmody]

Hi again, Kris. You are not in any trouble with your rose being ordered as climber. Your rose will not develop all those original stems after the first year, and you can take things into your own hands. Remember, those stems, before arriving to you, were handled by lifting equipment, which in the process of taking rose out of the ground, got rid of all thorns on the rose. Rose will produce strong growth from the base and from the original stems, and the rest will die. Good, we don’t need those damaged sticks. Hope I am not too confusing with all this…

[@kriszingone5649]

@@OlgaCarmody good morning ….thanks for responding 🙏good news regarding my “climber”. You have not confused me at all. Lady of Shalott has by being both a climber and a shrub 🤣. Look forward to your next video !! Thank you Olga

Love your garden and you did a good job !just want to know how often and how you fertilize and take care your plants

[@OlgaCarmody]

I use Espoma Organic All Purpose Plant Tone Fertilizer. My local Home Depot is out of it, so for second rose feed I am going to use Jones organic knock out rose granula plant food. As for the care of roses. There are several things you totally need to do for your rose beauties, I will come up with the detailed video about it.

[@yishen1221]

[@jeffwong4876]

Olga teach me how to fertilize my English roses. I live in zone 9 and I have Golden Celebration, Teasing Georgia, Crown Princess Margaretta and Tranquility. I have all of them for about 6 years and they always look sickly.

[@OlgaCarmody]

Why did you think that it is a lack of fertilizer that makes your roses sick? Look into quality of soil, sun and water situation. Shade will definitely make your roses sick. Roses in the south suffer from root knot nematodes… How about other pests… And then you can buy an organic rose food, I use Espoma, and give it to your roses.

[@joshandshelbys]

Have you tried David Austin’s “St Swithun”climbing rose? Just curious! We ordered a bare root for spring!

[@OlgaCarmody]

I was reading about one guy rosarían from us rose society who couldn’t have his own land for some time. Finally, when he bought his house, he went ahead and bought every single rose for sale… What do you think about that? I don’t have St. Swithun. I like it’s flowers, look like little saucers. I am not particularly happy with its grayish green foliage. My Queen of Sweden has those shiny, leathery leaves, grayish I must say. But that is just my 2 cents. Keep me posted how you like it.

[@junjunzhao382]

Thank you for introduction. Which zone are you in?

[@OlgaCarmody]

I am zone 7, coastal Connecticut. Happy gardening!

[@totalwrestler]

Amazing information about roses. Did you have a emily bronte rose? I just received one and hope to train my rose as a climber.

[@OlgaCarmody]

Don't have Emily Bronte, although it is a gentle and charming rose. Hope yours will be a delight!

[@totalwrestler]

@@OlgaCarmody thank you i hope i can train my rose as a climber. I'm on a semi tropical island and the weather conditions must be favorable

[@nutzhazel]

Love your videos! Just subs to you. I have a Lady of Shallot which I bought in March this year and been giving out really long shoots, so I bend one and it gave out more long shoots. It didn't blooms yet but only grow those long shoots. But now I know what to do with those long shoots as I want to train it as a climber. I probably should just wait until it gets high enough so I can bend it more to my likings. Very good informative videos 👍 By the way, do you have anything on a floribunda rose called Minerva and Rosarium Uetersen? I'm lost at what I'm going to do with them...the Rosarium gives out horizontal shoots that bends down gracefully but didn't produce flowers. Then it gives out vertical shoots with cluster buds on top. I don't know how to trim them or what the exact shape should I expect 😅 The Minerva looks like a shrub but it gave out a long shoots with cluster flowers on top, so now I'm scared to trim it as I didn't want to accidentally prun any shoots that might bearing flowers. Any advice for me? 🥰

[@OlgaCarmody]

Hi Hazel, I don’t have Minerva or Rosarium. Just checked the info on Rosarium and see that it is a mighty climber or cascading rose. It can reach 12 feet high! Don’t cut those long shoots, train them on something vertical. And don’t worry about the blooms, they will come. Your rose is young probably… If you train a climbing rose long shoots to grow horizontally, they will produce many vertical shoots and those will bloom next year. As for Minerva. It is stated as a shrub. Roses do grow out crazy shoots sometimes. I would trim it to form a pleasant shape and wouldn’t worry about it. Your Lady of Shallot is young too. I am going to show in my next video it’s second blooms and you will be surprised how wild it can get. So your roses and you are doing just fine! Happy gardening!

[@nutzhazel]

@@OlgaCarmody Thanks so much for your feedback and advice! My Lady of Shalott is young indeed barely a year, now it's happily growing as a climber now that I got a rose trellis for it. It gave me 2 blooms in last 3 months but I have high hopes for any blooms next year. I had a crazy rainy season last couple of months and sadly Rosarium died from canker and the Minerva is surviving from black spot. I'm really impress that Lady of Shalott didn't get infected much with black spot as all my roses are. Just a couple of leaves got infected and that's all. Your Lady of Shalott and climbing roses videos will always be my references in growing my little rose garden ❤️

[@OlgaCarmody]

@@nutzhazel Nice to hear from you, Hazel! I am glad you are enjoying your garden! It is a very good thing to do and I am full of good plans for next year already. Happy gardening!

[@jkarakhanyan]

My Lady of Shalott was turning into a monster as a shrub, so I decided to put it in an obelisk. I’m new to using obelisks, so I wanted to know if I should bend the big canes around the structure. I don’t see lateral shoots from them, so I’m afraid it will not work.

[@OlgaCarmody]

Hi Juliana, Great question, I am going to answer it in detail in one of my next videos, since it is reoccurring situation for many of us. Stay tuned!

[@shanemccoy419]

Much like you I am tempting fate with shade on my Zepherine Drouhin rose I have planted in the front of house north west side of the front porch. There is a bit of an overhang from the design of the house. What do you think? I know roses need at least 6to8 hr....sun but Zepherine can tolerate some....shade.

[@OlgaCarmody]

Well, if you want to test your rose, you are welcome to do so. I planted Queen of Sweden in morning shade and am paying for it with very small performance from those roses.

[@manalin6917]

Will you cut the 2 hight stems comes out of the Lady of Shalott before it blooms? Or will you trim if back after it blooms to make it stay like shurb?

[@OlgaCarmody]

I want to keep my Lady of Shalott as a shrub and will be trimming it regularly through the growing season. If those long shoots are ready to flower, I might let them do that and will take blooms inside the house and trim back the stems. I do have videos about it. Happy gardening!

[@OlgaCarmody]

@@AnandeshiNareshChandra hm, the highest these roses can go is 10-11 zone. You can try to keep your roses in big pots and give them some sun protection. Some of the roses good to zone 11 and tolerate hot and dry conditions are: Clare Austin, Olivia Rose Austin, Roal Dahl, Princess Ann, Desdemona, Scepter’d Isle, The Ancient Mariner, The Lady Gardener, Gertrude Gekyll, Tranquility, Carding Mill, Tess of the D’Urbervilles. Hope it helps.

[@pinkrabbit9644]

I'll be planting 5 DA climbing rose this spring 2022. Do they climb fast? and how long do I wait till I see the first bloom? Thank you

[@OlgaCarmody]

Hi there, Congratulations on your new rose purchase! Climbing speed depends on rose variety. Usually taller types are faster/stronger climbers. Majority of DA roses are reblooming varieties, but you might get only one small blooming season from your new babies. Be patient, your roses will be young and will be spending energy on root system first. So, no big show first year, next year - better, and year after that - your climbers will be mighty! Happy gardening!

[@momschallenges7078]

i thought that you had 3 roses. But now I know :)) .How long it take you to have that large shrub

There are 2 roses growing together. They are around 7 years old and I am contemplating to put one more rose there. Same, Lady of Shalott. Not sure how that young plant will compete with already established roses.

LofS is generally in between climber and shrub growing habit and in hotter climate than mine (6/7) it will be a stronger climber, I am sure. I was trying to see what growing zone Madeira is in. Computer says that it differs where you live. LofS is good to zone 11.
