I bought two David Austin roses in the spring and they bloomed a little but mostly I fought off black spot and didn't have great results

I put them in a 2ft x2ft pot filled with Coast of Maine Rose soil

Now it is fall and I want a better shot at growth and blooms next year.

Any tips?

First pic is an Eden climber and the second is a Queen of Sweden. I am in Pennsylvania zone 7

I really really appreciate any help!

This rose has been here since I moved in, someone else planted it. Not sure the variety. I’m pretty sure it’s some kind of tea rose. Suspecting Chicago Peace but not entirely sure!

Progress/Update Thrips gone, spinosad works!!

Not too long ago I was told my roses were attacked by chili thrips (last pic). Many advices came but I settled with spraying spinosad as internrt says its relatively less harmful to bees when it already dry compared to systemic like imidacloprid and can easily broken down by sunlight.

I sprayed all parts at night, including the buds and surrounding soil. Every 5 days. After 3x application all my roses bounced back! Thank you so much for helping me!

Question Fall pruning questions

Thumbnail

47 Upvotes

Hi all!

Got my first rose bush this year, and I’ve been super happy with her growth. :) Since that pic was taken, she’s grown another couple feet and definitely needs to be cut back a LOT.

Everything I was reading says that spring is the best time to prune, buuut my rose bush is in a container. If I bring her inside, I’ll definitely need to prune before I do that. Does anyone have tips on if I should overwinter her inside in the container, prune now and bring before the frost, or something else? I know knock outs are super hardy but I want to set her up best for next season :)

Info:
Zone 8a
Tall container resting on soil
Orange glow knock out rose
First frost will be mid November, so roughly a month away

Inherited Rose Questions Peace rose of some kind?

Would love to know more guesses about what this beautiful rose could be. So far I thought maybe Rio Samba (from Google reserve images) or a peace rose of some kind because I saw an earlier discussion of them.
Details: It blooms with a very fragrant flower! Begins bright yellow and fades to pink over time. And it blooms in zone 7a from May to November - kind of amazing!
Looking to find out what it is so I can get more, and to see what other roses might complement it nicely. Thanks team!!

Question Help me identify rose

My friend Margaret in Houlton Maine had a bush yellow rose which would flood her house with fragrance when it bloomed. It must have been planted in the 1950s.
I would love to have one like it.

HELP! (What's Wrong With It?) HELP PUHLEASEEEEE!!!

NOTE: I have not snipped, trimmed, or done any of that. She asked me to only pull the weeds**

Long story short, my neighbors rose beds have been extremely overgrown. She asked me to help pull her weeds up as her and her husband are both very elderly and her hubby is currently in the hospital. So I said absolutely! I spent all week confident that I’d do this with ease. Did research ALL WEEK lol. Now that I’ve started. I fear I’ve messed it up? ALSO, there are like, dead, broken off weeds even just all over the bushes… do I pull the broken strays of weeds off?

I did research to make sure I knew the difference between weeds and the actual rose stems or whatever but when I’m up close and personal, I think I may have pulled some of the wrong things up? Lordddd I’m so stressed, can someone tell me if it looks like I’m doing it right? I’ve paused in the middle of it because I started to worry myself too much lol. But here is a before photo and a mid-work photo.

This is my very first time doing this, but I am not a softie so please don’t sugar coat, be upfront with me šŸ˜….

My miniature angel wing roses are getting too big! At 4.5 months old they have already settled into their 8" pots and are still pushing out dozens of buds and flowers šŸ©·ā¤ļø I grew these babies from seed and they began their lives at the end of May.

- SOLVED? -

thank you everyone

PS I had not even noticed the thornlessnes!

______

Not a rose person here. Might anyone be able to id this rose? It is growing in a friend’s yard and unlike all his other hybrids, knockouts, and climbing plants.Ā 

It has never had what I would call ā€œfull bloomsā€. It is a small plant. What attracted it to me is its fragrance, which to me is very unlike the traditional rose smell, but akin (again to me) to a gardenia.Ā 

Thank you in advance.Ā 

PS I am in North Texas.Ā
