I've always heard/read that Rose's don't do well in containers. Turns out, I was using the wrong fertilizer. Thanknyou!

Thank you for your video. This is so helpful. Glad to now that roses could be potted in pots for those of us that are renters.

Great info on fertilizing potted plants. I noticed the granular fertilizer was not working on my potted plants. Glad I caught this video in time.

I just got cinco de mayo and put it in a whiskey barrel! My first container rose ever!

I use the granular fertilizer for my potted rose that I grew from a cutting. It is doing beautifully, growing very strongly and quickly. It's fine to use the granular fertilizer as long as you don't overdo it (use too much).

This was exactly what I needed to hear! Earlier today even I was having a hard time with where to put two roses being delivered, and this video crossed my feed right on time. Thanks for the advice!

I have some roses that are well over 30 years old in the ground, and I am planning to have my backyard relandscaped. I don't want to get rid of them, so I decided to take some cuttings from my three favorite bushes. The cuttings are doing well, and I plan on planting those cuttings in containers. I wasn't sure if roses grow well in containers, but after watching this, I now know.

Great video. I just put roses in pots in the fall. They look good so far. Glad you mentioned the granular fertilizer. I can see your point on getting to hot.

Hello! I just planted my roses with half organic and half miracle grow soil with slow release beads. If I’ve done something wrong please advise how I can rectify. Thank you!

Great video---I have many of your roses & while you are at the upper end price-wise, your roses are in the best condition of any company I've ordered from so far. I sometimes plant in the fiber pots so if I put them in the ground it will be a bit easier; I set the fiber pot into a larger pot WITH drainage (VERY important, as the fiber will start to mold sitting in water or even dampness). I think the fiber pot allows evaporation so the roots don't roast, whereas plastic pots do not.
What I really need advice on is the maintenance of potted roses. Should I replace the soil after 2-3 years? I agree that liquid fertilizer is best, but when & should I vary between high N for leaves & a bloom fertilizer, or just stick with a balanced one? It seems to me that the potted roses are less able to handle cold temps (zone 8b, so not too much below freezing). Thanks for being my go-to rose grower.

I so glad yall exist and have this channel. I ordered some roses from yall about a week ago and as a total newbie i felt i had taken on a task well beyond my scope with roses. Coming across these videos has me feeling condifent and like a pro only after consuming a couple hours of info directly form the place i got my roses. I love this. thanks.

edit: as confident as im feeling i still gotta ask. I have a raised bed container im going to put these in that has a to volume of 1 cubic yard. The bed is L 63" x W 23" by H 30". with those 63 inches would planting 4 different roses be too cramped?
edit2:the roses i got were - Black Ice, Midnight Blue, Capitaine John Ingram, and Oklahoma.

I already have 3 roses (planted in ground) from you and planning on purchasing more for containers in next couple months. I live in New York (Zone 7), and was wondering if I need to store containers in green house for winter. Containers are currently next to the house on south side of the house.

I worry about the roses getting root bound after 1-2 years in the pot. I read somewhere that grow bags help solve this problem because of air pruning of the roots. As a result, smaller size grow bags, like a 10 gallon one, is good enough to grow most type of roses - big or small.
Do you think it will be a good idea to use 10 gallon grow bag in side 12-14 gallon pot ( to leave some air space between the grow bag and the pot ) for growing heirloom roses ?

I'm in zone 6. If I plant a climber variety in a pot alongside side my fence, how do I protect the bush in the winter months when it gets below freezing?

[mrsmango]

What kind of soil would you recommend buying at the big store? That doesn’t contain granulated fertilizer.

So, I am waiting on mine (I ordered some Plum Perfect and Beverly). I couldn't afford the big terracotta pots and got some large resin pots with holes drilled in the bottom. Would you suggest making a reservoir to put under them? I don't want to over water by accident.
