Wonderful!

[@BCBRENDA]

Good morning and thank you so much. I didn't know Walmart carries root roses. As a new gardner I want to plant a rose, but don't want to start out with an expensive rose n it dies on me. One day I look forward to purchasing a few of those beautiful expensive roses. For now, I'm headed to Walmart. Thanks a lot. I love your channel because you keep it real!😊

[@shesamadgardener]

I feel the same way! I want to learn on cheaper roses and then purchases some prized ones in the future!

Oh my! I was day dreaming of a Lavender/ purple climbing rose thinking that there probably not one. I live in southern California and now I’m hoping that my local #WalMart will have the #LavenderCrushClimbingRose. I’m looking forward to seeing your roses this year. I counted my roses and I now have 16 and I still have at least 2 more on my wish list. Some in ground and some in pots. Thank you for the rose care advice and tips video. Love your channel and I look forward to watching you every day.🌹🌹🌹

[@shesamadgardener]

Oh pretty, I’ll go look that one up!

[@kathleenvadney6217]

Thank you for the education on bare root roses. One of the reasons for grafting primarily is because the root stock is more resistant to soil born disease. Many hybrid rose varieties have roots that are susceptible but by grafting to a strong root stock they are less likely to fail from soil born diseases.

[@shesamadgardener]

Good to know!

[@dianne3971]

I just planted 3 Sexy Rexy that I purchased from Lowes for $14.95 each. I planted directly into compost in a new flower bed. Zone 9, south central Georgia.

[@shesamadgardener]

[@mhubertcfi]

That's a great assortment! I have had really good luck with these and love the thrill of the hunt. I feel like they catch up by the end of the summer. I would totally grab the Peace, Chicago Peace. Will have to look into the True line

Yep the price makes it easier to try!

[@user-te3yg8ii5k]

Rushing to local Walmart to find a ‘new year’ climber! Thanks!

[@shesamadgardener]

Good luck!

[@richbishop7896]

I would like to add that if planting in a pot the rose should be two zones cold hardier than your zone. Something us colder zones must consider. We also have to plant our graft two inches below ground level for winter hardiness. If the top growth is killed off from winterkill it will grow back from the root. Own root roses are also better in a cold zone. Bonny zone 5b Canada

[@shesamadgardener]

Yes, someone else said I should go back and bury the grafted area two inches below the soil to protect it from cold weather. It’s amazing how different planting own root is from planting grafted.

[@Sindri27]

I have True Inspiration its beautiful and pretty blackspot resistant. Had to mention that one.

[@shesamadgardener]

Ooo, glad you like the True Bloom roses!

[@rebeccazody1278]

Looking forward to seeing the trellis from limbs. Learned a lot about roses from you. I have two knockout roses from Walmart that are 7 yrs old. Not blooming anymore. I think I will replace them now.

[@shesamadgardener]

Before you replace them, consider giving them a nice hair cut and good fertilizer … I have a video on that this week!

[@LoneStarGardener]

Love what you chose and laughed about only buying 2. Who does that?! LOL I bought "Garden Party" hybrid tea bareroot at our local WM last week (Expert Gardener). When I got home I researched it and it turns out it was created in 1959. Can't wait to see these blooms.

[@shesamadgardener]

Oh wow!

[@litasolis9671]

love your choices. I've got a new one in a pot this year. Excited try them in a container. What is this journal you're using there? Love the detail in your videos. Thanks for all your work.

I planted 5 bare root roses into the ground on Tuesday 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹 a red a pink a yellow a peach and a white they are hybrid tea roses I bought from Amazon £16.99 for a set of 5 absolute bargain - they all had really good roots and I did soak them for about 30 minutes 😀 I can't wait to see how they grow 🌿🌹🌿 I already have 2 which my daughter bought me in pots - I tranplanted one into the ground in autumn and it's almost grown another foot already - and a beautiful white climbing rose which I bought from Poundland for £1 about 8 years ago which I've just attached to an arch 🌹

[@shesamadgardener]

Sounds like you are going to have a beautiful garden this year!

I took the risk and ordered 5 roses from DA and one florentina from Heirloom Roses (I read it grows aggressively). I am excited to start them. I have 1 DA rose currently and did great.

[@shesamadgardener]

I was happy with the selection!

[@dianaybarra9567]

Hi, Watched your video and was very interested and have subscribed. I have had roses in the past. Some I purchased in pots from Home Depot or Lowe's and also from a rose grower. I hand little luck since I live in zone 11 south Florida. I have one that I purch as a bare root, not grafted and is still thriving in the garden. The other is a Knock Out Rose which is still alive too not a bare root purch... I have very sandy soil in Fla. (In ground) and wondered what to do to make them grow better. It gets very hot here in summer.

[@shesamadgardener]

Have you considered planting in containers instead of the ground? That would give you better soil and allow you to move them to shade in the afternoons when it gets super hot.

[@hildalopez1252]

Is there a follow-up video to the video? i love to see how the roses are doing now... thank you : )

[@shesamadgardener]

The follow ups are in my garden tour videos at the end of each month … the March video will come out next week.

[@normarobles4899]

Also HD has a huge variety of roses for 14.99 right now I even found some varieties that sell online for 3x the price.

[@shesamadgardener]

I need to go check them out!

[@jonathanc698]

I have to go and get a lavender crush rose , from what Ive seen each Walmart has different types of climbing roses because I haven’t seen the lavender crush in any of mine, and my has florentina which i didn’t see urs had, and from what I’ve heard from a few people is that the true series roses (blue bag rose) are own root roses :)

[@shesamadgardener]

That’s awesome if those True Blooms are own root!

[@gillbrown3523]

I’d love to see you make a trellis. How often would you water your roses in the pots in winter?

[@shesamadgardener]

I’ll be sure to do that! During the winter I water about every 5 days if it hasn’t rained.

[@miabhlub63]

I bought 3 (red, white and yellow)from Walmart too. Two are having buds, and one is still dormant.

[@shesamadgardener]

Those are going to be beautiful!

[@vickijackson9115]

Thank you for sharing all the great information. Question? Why did you choose pots versus planting them in the ground? And have you had any problems with disease?

[@shesamadgardener]

I want to be able to move them around the yard and don’t have a place where I want a rose planted in the ground right now.

[@jazminvillalobos5177]

[@Pickled_Yams]

Do you have to take all of the dirt off the roots and soak them? All we did was take paper off and keep them in the soil they came with, adding compost and native soil. We also added mulch. We have thick brown stems from the get-go-no green at all. So I’m assuming they are dead? :(

[@shesamadgardener]

Nope you don’t have to take the soil off! … sometimes it takes awhile for them to leaf out but if it’s been more than a couple of months since you planted and there are no leaves, then it is dead.

I have not had luck with Walmart roses. They're never what theyre advertising. I got 5 different peach colored roses. 1 was a peach color. The other 4 were completely different. Id go with the ones that cost a few more bucks then get the expert gardener again. I got one that was supposed to be peaceful joey and was a primrose. None of them where even labeled or supposed to primrose.... wasnt my style at all. Best of luck 🤣most of them were still pretty just not what they were supposed to be.

[@lisab1419]

As someone who grew up and has grown beautiful roses near Galveston. I can tell you you will have to amend your soil at the site where you're going to plant your roses. Also, because of the humidity, you will HAVE to do preventative spraying with a fungicide (I use potassium bicarbonate) to prevent black spot. Plant your roses where they get morning sun and light shade in the afternoon. Be sure to deadhead any spent blooms. Fertilize every 4-6 weeks with Rosetone and a half strength gallon of fish emulsion every 2 wks (the fish emulsion is just because I get glossier foliage and full blooms. Rose-tone and fish emulsion are both organic. Watch out fir the Japanese Beetles and especially aphids on new growth. You can spray the aphids off w/a strong stream from your garden hose. The potassium bicarbonate is the ONLY fungicide that will actually kill black spot and powdery mildew as well as prevent it. You'll have to buy the Potassium bicarbonate online. (Neem oil burns the leaves on my roses). NEVER spray anything on your roses in the heat of the day and try to water at ground level. Mulch well to keep the soil cool. I know it sounds like a lot of work but, it's really not.😊

[@lisab1419]

I forgot to add that Tha Antique Rose Emporium near Brenham, TX has a 1yr guarantee on their roses too AND their ALL own root (meaning NOT grafted) which IMO are stronger and better roses. If they freeze back to the ground, they come back from new growth beneath the soil level as the same rose. Grafted roses don't, they come back as whatever the rootstock is.

[@shesamadgardener]

Lots of great tip! Thank you!

[@lisab1419]

My pleasure fellow rose grower. Did you know that some Austin roses are grown in Tyler? Mine always ship from there. I called them once to see if I could pick them up instead of having to pay for shipping. Alas, the lady said no, no can do. I pick mine up from the Antique Rose Emporium. If you've never been there, you have to go. It's a magical place and the people who work there are incredible.

[@fromseedtobloommedia9340]

Good morning, I love bare root rose’s season, your grafted roses are planted way too high, the graft union should be buried at least 2 inches below soil level; to protect the union in a freeze and to avoid the rose rocking back and forth, also it’s not recommended to use fertilizer on a bare root the young roots that will develop will burn. It’s only recommend to use liquid fertilizer for the 1st year. Hope this help in your new rose endeavors to give your babies the best start. Happy growing 😊 kzbin.info/www/bejne/a3vWhJVomNKKj8Usi=QQFpFKMGSYSXLiV6 I used this as a guild when I started out, and it helped
