Pruning and Training David Austin climbing roses after first year of growth in zone 9 (obelisk/wall)

[@PaulineMilner]

Thank you, you’re right I couldn’t find anything on pruning a rose on an obelisk either. Your video is really helpful! 😊

If you have all the branches going up the roses will tend to rise up, so you won’t get a full obelisk. Try to bend em slightly like wrapping em around the obelisk then you’ll get spurs off the main branch and more roses. Good luck I find roses easy to grow .. water, feed with a granular feed when the leaves break out and after the fist flush.. but I supplement with a liquid feed a couple of times also. And obviously spray maybe once a month for pests and black spot etc. B

I've been looking for a video for pruning a new climbing rose - so glad I found you. Am in the UK and a novice gardener. I only started my rose collection last year and it gives me anxiety to see how bare the roses look once they've been pruned 🤣 I'm going to have to bite the bullet and prune my Gertrude Jekyll climbers. Thank you for a great video 👍

My first David Austin Rose will be at my house soon! I’m so excited! Thank you for sharing how you prune, not as intimidating as I thought. Can’t wait to see them bloom 🥰

Good video. Lady of Shalott is an own root rose, meaning it’s not grafted and doesn’t produce suckers from a different rootstock. I wouldn’t worry about it even though you pruned them off though. Roses are tough plants. It will bounce back big time.

Thanks for the update! No wonder the leaves looked the same! 😂

@@PowertotheFlower no problem. I can’t wait for my order to arrive. I’m so excited!!!

Strawberry hill make the stems go along the decking more .. looks like there still going too vertical.. Look forward to more vids of these. Thank you for posting.

Great video! On small comment: Lady of Shalott has a bushy habit, it is not a climber ;) But it still should do well on an obelisk, I love this variety!

[@PowertotheFlower]

Hi there!!! Yes! There is a LoS shrub rose and also David Austin sells a climbing variety. It’s a low climber but they train it to walls and everything! Up to 8’! I agree wither way it will look fine on the obelisk! 😂

[@3apa3a4eva]

@@PowertotheFlower That's cool! Best of luck with your garden this spring!

[@meredithritner548]

My understanding is that how you prune a lady of shallot will determine whether it is a climber or a shrub. It is up to the gardener!
