How To Plant David Austin Roses For ‘FULL’ Effect! In POTS! Bare Root!

[@Miriam-rf4xv]

David Austin do indeed use multiple rose plants in a single pot to achieve the 'full' look - especially for the photoshoots. Just be warned - after a couple of years (perhaps just one) you will need to lift and divide these plants because they will not thrive and eventually die with that little space. Depending on the size rose, you need a container of at least 45cm and possibly 60cm diameter and in depth to house a single rose bush happily for multiple years. If you have the patience, a cheaper way to do it is to buy a single rose. In three years it will have achieved its full size and you will not have three potentially dying plants on your hands :)

So glad I came across this video. Elliot is so easy to watch - he is articulate and confident in what he is showing you.

Thank you! X

The arrival of bare root roses has to be one of the most exciting things ever! I find them so beautiful... it’s just the anticipation that bubbles up! That’s a rose and plant addict talking!! This was an exciting and helpful video. I get most of my DA or any bare roots from Victoria, Australia if I can’t find them in Sth Australia. How blessed are you to live in Shropshire though!!!

[@tejida815]

That was fun watching you work. I'm so jealous of your garden. If you ever come to the US again, you might try to visit Longwood Gardens in Pennsylvania.

[@SuperAdrienneLeigh]

Thank you for this informative tutorial. Your garden in lovely, and I can hear the most beautiful birdsong as well!

[@racheldelgado9216]

Thanks for sharing. You have such a lovely garden and now I know what it takes to achieve it. Always look forward to your vlogs.

[@wendystavinoha5618]

Elliot, thank you so much. I had ordered a David Austin rose for my sister, it came today and I just shared this video with her!!!!

[@janeyann8316]

I just looked up the rose Anne Boleyn on the David Austin website, it is so pretty.

[@mimaroo1431]

Everything looks so nice and warm where you are. Your garden is beautiful. Yesterday we were having snow flurries😥. We have planted some flowers, but we're having a cold spell here. I hope that they make it to the weekend, when it gets warmer.

This was a very professional video. I very much enjoyed watching it and hearing how to plant and care for the roses. You did a great job in this video. I hope to see more videos from you like this one. It was Excellent!!

Fantastic, thank you for the video, Elliot. I love David Austin Roses 💜🌹🌹.

Definitely ordering some!

[@Zincink]

Today I saw my cutting sticking out of 4 ft of snow. This year I was gifted for Christmas with a David Austin yellow/peach climber. I had a climber last year for at random (not a DA), so I’ll see how this brand works out. I never knew they put in 3 bushes. Most of my roses are my Grandmothers from the early 50’s/60s.

Thanks for the detailed video. I think I am well prepared to plant my 5 bare roots now.

[@ukcarver]

Great video and lots of very good advice, last year I planted a number of David Austin roses in large pots, my only disappointment was most of the flower heads bent over, so I need to find out what to do. Also never knew you could grow three roses in one pot.

[@omarholguin8057]

Some varieties do that. My Lady of Shalott definitely has a downward facing bloom.

Any updates on planting them 3 to a pot?? Did you end up liking it more? & what gallon pot would you suggest for going 3 to a pot? Thanks! 💙💙

[@MasiMoreno]

Seguro que no hay actualización porque están muy feos,es normal, plantar tres rosales de esa variedad en una sola maceta es un grave error.

[@yocoffee]

What is the size of the pot are you using for the 3 bare roots? How wide and how deep?

[@brendaroxde6471]

I have planted in early November , 7 bare root DA roses into individual 52 wide 58 cm high pots. Hence I expect them to thrive for at least 10 years , maybe slow but sure. If I had to plant 3 roses in one pot, I assume they have to be replanted individually in about 2 or 3 years otherwise the roots will get too crowded. I would therefore never plant 3 developed roses together in just one pot. The first bloom might be beautiful and they by 3rd year they’ll will get stagnant. Just my opinion .

[@ElliotNMatt]

Yes repot them every three years if planting three in a pot and feed weekly during growing season.

[@roses6564]

The pot looks small even for one rose. How do three make it there?

[@tbnewhomes]

Please do an update on this! I literally ordering 3 Princess Alexandra in a pot because of this video. Thank you so much

[@ElliotNMatt]

Wrong time of year right now for an update as everything just coming into bud. Will be moving them to our new house soon and probably planting in the ground to form a rose garden. I’ll make a video on that in due course. I did show them last year in my various weekly vlogs when walking around the garden. 😄

[@tbnewhomes]

@@ElliotNMatt Yes I saw those! Thank you so much. I bought 2 roses and will be planting them in a container because of your recommendation. Keep up the good work!

[@teresawingbermuehle4212]

You plant them in straight compost ? Thanks😊😊 USA

[@ElliotNMatt]

Yes rose and shrub compost is best

[@janewright315]

Have 2 climbing D.A. roses on their way but hoping to put them in pots- or rather very, very large planters. Has anyone tried this? Have plenty of sun, just terrible soil (clay and rock) and not much space. Now that I see this I wonder if the planter i have is too large to have only one rose in each (though it looks like these are the smaller container varieties). Pot is 61cm/24in in length and width and a bit over 53cm/21in in height

[@MysticFIREFLY]

love learning about David Austin Roses....love your excitement, and spunk. Do you know if there is a Rose Identify APP - that would help us identify which rose we have - I have lost my tags, and really want to identify my Beautiful David Austin Pink Climbing roses I planted several years ago.....they are so very beautiful and strong bloomers.......thank you - please post the LINK if there is an APP currently created to identify Plants... thank you so much.

[@Lala-vm9wi]

Pls share the measurement of the clay pot you are using? (Height, length & width) thx

[@haleyhompstead5526]

David Austin recommends 18 inch pots. Mine are 20 gallon for my roses.

[@Sarahx-jf6sd]

I did this after watching this video, and if anyone else is in the same boat. I would not recommend doing it, there’s not enough air circulation for the roses to thrive. I have just taken them out to put into the ground after only 1 year (2 summers) Plant 1 in each 45cm container. The only way it would work for al 3 is if your container is like 90cm in diameter and where the hell would you even fit that? 😬 Patience for the full effect people! Otherwise you’ve wasted almost £100 on 3 roses that end up dying!

[@ElliotNMatt]

Mine were fine and did reach the desired size. I would recommend regular feeding during the growing season. Weekly if possible plus I’d recommend hard pruning annually and changing the compost completely every third year. Yes you need a decent sized pot! I did make a separate video about pot size.

[@grischadaniel3190]

Hello Thank you for a great video! Can I ask whether these three roses can remain in this pot forever? of will they need transplanting out at some point? Also do you top dress the pots with anything?

[@ElliotNMatt]

Hi, it prob would be best to switch out the compost every 4 years or so. However I don’t plan too. As d as n experiment I’m going to just continue weekly liquid feeding during growing season and see how they do. This year will be the second year for the three in a pot.

[@SuperSmileyd]

Great job!

[@elsagrace3893]

As I watching I’m wondering how long can three roses live in one pot?

[@ejdacanay]

Have you found the answer? Thinking of putting 2-3 in a whiskey barrel.

[@JessieR2023]

@@ejdacanay eventually one or two will die or all of them will die. It’s never recommended to plant more than 1 roses in a pot. That a serious mistake.

Did they flower at all?

[@rachelbest3813]

You've left the graft too high on 4 roses, it's meant to be covered

[@ElliotNMatt]

Depends what zone you are in. In some climes it can be detrimental to bury the graft site as it can sit in water if lots of rain. In others it’s best to bury them completely to protect against prolonged snow periods. I’ve never lost a rose planting them this way here in U.K. in fact all of mine thrive. I also tend to leave room for some light grit to go over the top which does cover the graft and allows for good drainage.

[@jenniferabel2811]

@@ElliotNMatt Thanks so much for the explanation. I was wondering why you’d decided not to bury the grafts, and whether I should dig mine out and do the same! But snow is an issue here, and now I finally understand why the conflicting graft advice is out there. :)Thanks again.
