You are so helpful!!!

[@mml0082]

Wow thank you so much Olga ! You’re the best , I would’ve never thought of this 🌹

[@OlgaCarmody]

You are welcome!

[@lucart08]

That was extremely helpful. Thank you so much!

[@Sengvas7]

I love love your rose videos. I’m in Florida and has lots of trouble with roses. Would be awesome to see rose care in Florida. You are very thorough and non intimidating; love your beautiful accent too.

[@OlgaCarmody]

Oh, how sweet of you!Thank you for such a wonderful message!

[@kathynelson30]

Good choice! Thank you. People need that kind of help!

[@rbthegardennannyllc4219]

Olga, that plant you shared at the beginning of the video has popped up in my garden and I absolutely love them. They are very whimsical. I believe they are an onion from the Allium family. Please let me know if I’m wrong or right. Nevertheless, I stake them because with rain and wind they tend to flop. I did not plant them but they are here. Anything else you can share about yours in your garden. Thanks and thanks for this valuable information for rose care throughout the USA!!!

Thanks for sharing ,this is my first year of planting roses,your info very helpful .

[@OlgaCarmody]

Glad it was helpful! Would you benefit from video where I explain simple steps in rose care through the year? I thought about it, but not sure if such video is needed… Let me know!

[@user-ww9uf7tv6y]

This video is needed to whom willing to care for roses the right way, Thanks Olga !

Hi Olga. This is great information! I think Kansas and Missouri should probably be divided in half. I live in the northeast of Kansas, Kansas City. We are zone 5b/6a, depending on who you ask. I went ahead and took a screenshot of your Midwest/Plains schedule for my roses. Love your channel and beautiful roses!

[@OlgaCarmody]

Great, I am glad you can benefit from this information. I think there is a lot of confusion among beginner rose lovers about time of care. Be well!

[@lucerocarmona9926]

Great information. I started again with the roses after I started following your channel. You have an amazing garden. What do you mean by spraying the roses? Thanks. 💐

[@OlgaCarmody]

Thank you! By spraying I mean disease and bugs sprays, whichever folks are using.

[@claudiasmith1866]

Olga, I too am in CT. I'm in the center of the state. I just found your channel and am enjoying the info/help that you share. Thank you. One question regarding the Rose care charts. In the CT chart there is no information on what to do in September and October. What should I be doing now and what is the process needed to get the roses safely through the Winter?

[@OlgaCarmody]

Hi Claudia, thank you for watching! I have recent video of 5 fall mistakes. I agree, there should be a video of what to do for roses in the fall. Stay tuned, I will create it.

[@indie8189]

I give light water soluble food once a week, the roses love it 🥰

[@OlgaCarmody]

You know me with my “song” about natural stuff! Glad your rose is thriving!

[@indie8189]

@@OlgaCarmody I have Alaska fish fertilizer, I don’t know if I can use it now…? I usually use it before winter. What do you think?

[@OlgaCarmody]

@@indie8189 You can use it any time, how do you deal with bad smell? I would love to use it, but my neighbors would think that I am their worst enemy!

[@indie8189]

@@OlgaCarmody The smell goes away pretty fast, I’ve never had anyone complain to me 😂

[@miriamgrutz2132]

Thank you great information! Question what fertilizer you use and what spray? Wondering if you could give me an ideal im in Florida.

[@OlgaCarmody]

Thanks. I use natural Job fertilizer. As for the spray, Neem oil is my most often used. Just be careful with it in your hot zone. Sun can burn leaves. Read the instructions.

Welcome! I am glad you are here! My next video will be about David Austin rose - Queen of Sweden!

[@LauraMason-u4y]

When you say spray, what does that mean?

[@dclaet1135]

I'm in Central California and the summers here get between 100-115 in July through October. I find it very hard to get my roses to bloom in that heat.

[@OlgaCarmody]

Yes, roses don’t like extreme heat, they actually go into dormant state in the heat of summer. Here in CT we really don’t have killer heat, but people start reporting bleaching of leaves under strong sun.

[@dclaet1135]

@@OlgaCarmody So, am I wasting my money fertilizing them during the hottest months? Does fertilizer stress a dormant plant or help support it? Thanks, Denise

You had Plant tone fertilizer on your previous video , is Rose tone better for roses ?

[@OlgaCarmody]

Rose tone is specifically fitted for roses, so it would be better. My local store is out of almost all natural fertilizers for roses, so I bought Plant tone. As long as it is natural, that is fine by me. My soil will be healthy and will support my healthy rose.

[@user-ww9uf7tv6y]

My local store is out of Rosetone , I need to pick it up in other store 15 miles away .

[@veronicaalta9462]

Very helpful info. I do have a question, can die back be pruned at any time ? I have dieback in some of my roses, can I cut it in middle of blazing hot summer? 8A N.C.

[@OlgaCarmody]

Pruning dead wood can be done in summer. Rose has a marvelous ability to form new shoots even from very old wood. Plus die back can sometimes continue moving down the healthy tissue. It usually stops at the bud. So prune the dead cane to the healthy tissue near the closest bud. Ideally the bud should be facing outward to direct the new shoot away from the bush, not into the bush (air circulation, better form). Hope it helps! plus, when you prune, do the cut just above the bud on an angle, this way rose won’t need to conserve energy and die back to the closest bud itself.

[@veronicaalta9462]

@@OlgaCarmody fantastic, I will do that . Thank You!!

[@notsuitable7954]

When you mention spray do you mean bug spray?

[@OlgaCarmody]

By spraying I mean pesticide (bug) or fungicide(disease) sprays. Whatever you need to do for your rose. I use Rose RX 3 in 1 if needed, it is a combo of both and fairly earth friendly. Happy gardening!
