Planning to grow a rose garden... roses like light, air, shelter and rich deep soil. So for a start you need to be sure you have the right sort of plot. Plan carefully, choose the colors that will look nice together.
When spring starts and new growth appears fertilize roses with a complete fertilizer such as specially formulated rose food. The main season for roses occurs in late spring through to summer an autumn.
Prune roses in winter, remove dead wood and cut branches back so you are left with three to five main stems. Cut to just above an outward facing bud that grows away from the center of the plant.
use a pruning saw to remove any thick growth.
If well looked after, many roses flower continuously right up until early autumn.
Plants that look wonderful with roses are delphiniums, trumpet lilies, Violas, geraniums and lavender
The great thing about roses is they look pretty and leave a lovely fragrance in the garden.
