Answers To Your Questions About Rose Gardening Tips
Donna asks…
hi. i live in india and i would like some tips on growing roses in the garden…the indian way.?
i live in a climate where roses can be grown all thru the year
Green Thumb answers:
Of course you need rose varieties that can bear up under the heat and humidity. I would suppose that would be the only kind they sell in India.
Might I suggest that check out a few rose web sites on the Internet? If you run across any Rose Societies with web sites you might be able to get answers to specific questions. Check out rose growers in Arizona, New Mexico, or California because these might be areas similar to you climate. Also southeast America where it is hot and humid such as, Florida, Alabama, Georgia, etc.
I hope you find what you’re looking for.
Robert asks…
what can i plant that will look descent with a rose bush and 2 holly bushes?
i have a basic flower bed in front of the house with an out of control rose bush and two holly bushes on either side. the rose bush grows like a weed and i know nothing about roses. it blooms orange roses which are beautiful, but the bush itself is an eyesore. any tips? there’s room to plant other things i just don’t know what will work or even look good. also, do i need to put down mulch? the garden faces east and we have bad humidity during the summer months.
Green Thumb answers:
Also, I would suggest pruning that rose and fertilizing everything. If you have old milk, instead of throwing it down the drain, pour it around on the ground under the plants. Dwarf fire nadinas would be a great shrub. They need no work, look great year round, and don’t get big.
Ken asks…
peony rose help please ?
Hi, i have a friend that is renting out her house and is going to have all the garden landscaped, however, she is getting rid of her peony roses, and there is quite a lot of them, also a few rose bushes, and some tulips, i am wondering if they will be ok to re plant in my garden, they have been dug up, and i want to know if i will be wasting my time digging holes and planting them, i just think they will go to waste and it will be a shame for them to die, si i tried to save them, and hope they will grow in my garden.
Any tips appreciated
Green Thumb answers:
They shouldn’t be too hard to transplant. A few tips: Transplant them in cool weather. Spring and Fall are ideal. Give them lots and lots of water once you get them in the ground, moving is stressful! A little miracle grow will help them too.
Tulips may not do so well this year but next year they should come back. They don’t really like to be messed with.
Good luck!
