Workshop on deadheading CLIMBING ROSE

Middle of June, roses are finishing their first flush of blooms here in Connecticut, US, zone 6/7. Now is the time to pick up our secateurs and start deadheading, shaping, clearing old foliage and fertilizing.
I am deadheading a climbing rose today with you.

Oh my dear, the Lady of Shallot is on my wish list alomg with Queen of Sweden. Am currently awaiting delivery of two climbers-Pretty in Pink Eden Climbers and Fruity Petals. Very Excited. 🌹🌹🌹🌹

[@ShilT.]

Olga, your videos are absolutely awesome…so very informative and the music is amazing! Makes me feel so happy. This is the first/second year that I am growing roses so I’m still a newbie and have lots to learn.

[@OlgaCarmody]

Awww, new rosarian here! Wonderful, you are going to love your plants!

[@shirleynall9048]

So glad to know why you should trim to five leaves. I have been doing this for years but had no ideal why.

[@OlgaCarmody]

Yes, not many books explain that rule of 5 leaves. Happy gardening!

[@govindapriyadasi286]

Thank you so much for this beautiful video! My main stems keep producing blooms at their tips ;( I guess I'm getting behind with their training. Alas, I will need to deadhead them ;(

[@elizabethwalters8790]

Your masterclass will always be in my mind when I prune my beautiful The Generous Gardener. Thank you oh so very much as always 🌹💚💚💚

[@OlgaCarmody]

You are very welcome! Happy gardening!

[@helenagreenwood2305]

I needed this video - I have a climber which is far too big for its boots I bought it about 5 years ago it was about 18" tall it's now like a triffid 😮 am definitely going to have a go at trimming it back 🌹🌹🌹 it has beautiful white roses - am in UK we have just had the rainiest July ever 🙄 but the garden is blooming! 🪻🌻🌼🍂🍁🌿🌷

[@maraleerescuex6503]

[@quinnfry2183]

Love your videos, I’m new to climbers and your videos are helping me so much! Quick question or observation…why don’t you wear any gloves? 😊

[@martinemaud3635]

Thank you, Olga. Another great tutorial, beautifully explained as only you can do.😊

[@OlgaCarmody]

Thanks so much 😊

[@Shimmydancer123]

Wonderful explanation!! I'm a newbie to growing roses. Thank you!!

[@Holly_at_gypsyhollergardens]

Love knowing "the why" !!! Thank you !

[@wagnerab1958]

Thank you for this wonderful explanation of "Why"

[@OlgaCarmody]

Glad it was helpful!

[@sherrysilveira2055]

Olga, I love your videos. I am fairly new to climbing roses and understand the concept of pruning only the laterals. I am confused about the tip of the main cane which produces blossoms. Are those blooms to be headheaded? Will this stop the growth of the main cane? I have watched many pruning videos and no one seems to cover this part of it.

[@CatholicSaintslayIncorrupt]

This for myself is divinely providential, as im only growing my first roses ( bare root in Brisbane Queensland Australia) right now and I was counting leaves yesterday on all nine roses. Its been 2 full weeks. So thank you. Most are 5 leaves, one that came with smaller stems a Kordes Perfuma has 3 leaves. But I have another two of that particular rose, Gratin Diana with 5. I wonder if I can find in a Kordes, a strong Fragrant Miniature rose at all! I have just planted bare root three Kordes dawrf Fairy Red in the one large flatish pot. I cant wait till they pop their little rose buds out! I have them sitting high above the fish pond. Being in a semi-tropical climate, the colour will be richly appreciated with the other colours there. Being, Birds of Paradise & the deep dark green foliage growing too.

[@WednesdayCat888]

Great information😊

[@denisesmith6359]

Thanks for the good info

[@ABR-rs7be]

This was a great tutorial! Thank you

[@OlgaCarmody]

Great, we just have to have beautiful gardens to enjoy!

[@helenatan1030]

Thank you!

[@ceeseetv694]

Very informative! I can’t keep my eyes off the little wooden house. What do you keep inside?

[@OlgaCarmody]

I keep all my small garden tools in it. Since our garage is occupied with kids bikes and skates, ball and scooters. Actually it is very convenient to have right in the middle of the garden, quick to get to.

[@elmaelmar2761]

This was excellent information!! So what do I do when 9 get a ton of new growth that is long and growing away from the trellis??

[@OlgaCarmody]

Thank you. What to do with new crazy growth? Mercilessly trim it away. I know, cringe, but the more you do it, the more you realize that it is just necessary. If you have too much to trim, maybe your climber is too big for the space you gave it...

[@lizbest86]

Would the trimmed lateral stems be good prospects for propagation? Just getting started with roses, look forward to all of your videos!

[@OlgaCarmody]

That I don't know, I will do a research on it and will ask my friends who are growing roses for 45 years. Thanks!

[@davenadainton4209]

Olga this is a fantastic video thank you. I now feel safe to prune mine. I have had the generous gardener for over 3 years now. Its had 2 main canes only and hasn't produced any more . But... I chopped a main cane 2 years ago buy mistake and the laterals have turned themselves into main canes if that makes sense. I also trained a main cane at a 35 degree angle 🤣. Which seemed a great idea at the time haha. The laterals are 2 meters high. Can I chop these 2 meter laterals down quite low? I was told to cut one of my main canes out to promote new growth but I'm glad I didn't until i got your advive..sorry for the long message but you are my best teacher 😊

[@OlgaCarmody]

Hi Davena, those laterals, if we let them take over, will turn into monsters. I cut them right at the beginning. If yours are in "monster" stage already, I would see if I can make out of them main cain extension, (optional, if longer canes are needed), or just trim them short. Don't worry, your rose will be fine with it.

[@davenadainton4209]

@OlgaCarmody thank you olga. Yes already in monster stage. Most of the laterals have took over but only having 2 main canes in 3 years I'm glad they filled a space. I may chop them hard in winter but for now they will definitely be cut a lot shorter after they have flowered. I struggle with this rose as I didn't train it right in its first year. In all honesty I didn't have the room for this rose. It was the first rose I ever bought and I didn't read the height. I had no idea what I was doing haha..thank you x

[@nataliyaantolich]

Olga, please advise how to deal with thrips!! I think I brought them from the nursery with the new roses I bought. Now my Olivia an Eden both have thrips 😭🙏🙏🙏

[@OlgaCarmody]

Gosh, those pests! The more I talk to different rosarians, the more I think that organics won't work on thrips. You have to do systemics on huge infestations. I really don't use systemics and can't advise on them. Do the research (I heard about Merit (imidacloprid), Conserve (spinosad), or Orthene (acephate). Again, don't rely on my info, do the research, what would be best to use and when. I also know that spring soil drench with systemic drench is better on beneficial bugs than foliar spraying.

[@nataliyaantolich]

@@OlgaCarmody Thank you so much,Olga! I removed all buds and flowers. Now it’s time to decide what to poison them with.

[@mickey5779]

Great tutorial! How old is your climber?

[@OlgaCarmody]

Around 10 years old!
