This month, I applied one more round of fertilizing boost to my roses and feeding the soil. An important part of growing healthy, happy, and resilient roses starts with nutrient rich soil that supports and delivers healthy nutrients to your roses/plants.

What is a bottomless pot by the way? - you ask. Since starting my rose journey over the past few years, I have experimented growing my roses in different mediums such as in the ground, raised beds, regular pots, and finally this bottomless pot method. As we know, roses grown in pots over several years have a tendency to become root bound (which means it has no more space to expand due to the restriction/space within its pot). So I thought - why not cut/remove the bottom of th

In this post, I'll be showing you how I plant my new rose in the ground step-by-step, how big the hole is in relation to the size of the rose, how I amend the soil (what I add), what/how I add/layer each component, how and what I use to mulch (how much and how close to the base and much more! Phewww, let's begin, shall we??

In this course, I'm sharing with you how I prune roses with various growth habits (small band rose, V shape, Y shape, messy/leggy, very dense, climbing rose). The 15 roses that I'm demonstrating how I pruned include : Mansfield Park, Bolero, Sparkle & Shine, Plum Perfect, Roald Dahl, Alnwick, Distant Drums, Evelyn, Belinda's Blush, Cathedral Bells, Double Easy Orange, Eustacia Vye, Earth Angel, Crazy Love, and Raspberry Cream Twirl.

Rose shopping is fun and can be addicting, right? The thought of adding new roses to your garden and visualizing how beautiful that will be is even more exciting. I totally get the feeling.

In addition to this video, I'd like to invite you to read this post on preparing your roses for the upcoming freeze. This will compliment this video nicely   https://www.rosesinhouston.com/post/caring-for-your-roses-during-winter

Here we are almost reaching the end of the year. If you are in Texas (Houston in particular), chances are - some of your roses are still blooming and some are slowing down. Your question at this point may be - what do I do with them.

Excited to share with you my checklist of the products I have been using in my rose garden. I wanted to get this list out to you early in case you want to put some of these stuff on your Christmas list. If possible, try to buy these products during the winter as I think their prices will skyrocket when spring arrives (especially fertilizer). Below is the list for you, where to buy and at the lowest prices.

Growing roses in the ground is undeniably an ideal way to allow your roses to grow and thrive over the next several years. The first 3 roses that I grew in my garden over 9 years ago, I planted them in the ground. Since the year 2020, I have tried growing my roses in different mediums - pots, bottomless pots, and raised beds.

In this post, I'm showing you a step-by-step how I pot my brand new rose. This post is perfect for those of you who buy baby / band or own root roses that are fairly small in size (from Heirloom Roses, Northland Rosarium, High Country Roses and others).

Happy November to all of you. For this month, this is what I do to maintain my roses. I stopped fertilizing in October as we're approaching the end of the growing season.
