Late last summer, 2023, I planted New Dawn climbing rose in a large pot. I left the biodegradable container it came in. Zone 8. It is amazing & filled with branches & buds that are ready to pop. Early this Spring I pruned any parts that looked like they needed it. I even used sharp shears to cut off the thorns, but nothing that was 'green'. I have anchored the branches with twine, tied to branches of mature, blue Hydrangea. I even rooted some Catmint in the container. I understand it's a great companion to the roses. All of the plants I have are in containers. Clematis, ITOH peonies, nasturtiums, sweet peas, Cosmos, Baby's Breath - which last year was so huge you couldn't see the pot. I have to repot at least one of my ITOH peonies & expect I may have to do that with New Dawn as well. It's location is perfect & I am able to keep it well watered. & have given it food & lots of TLC. Jason has also said it's good to snip the flowers off as each flower opens & starts to fade. Apparently that will encourage more roses to grow. However, I may leave some hips at the end of the season since I understand they are very striking. Last but not least there are brunnera in pots at the back where it's shaded with a pop of vibrant pink impatience in yet another long pot above that. If I can find this post again I will let you know how the summer goes with New Dawn. Right now it is looking amazing & the flowers should start to open in the next day or two.

Another small help to prevent overheating: use little terra cotta "feet" under pots to keep them off hot pavement.

This is great because I didn't know you could grow any type of rose in a container. This expands your options if you like container gardening. Thank you for the information!

Always enjoy your rose videos, so glad to have found such a good resource!

This is such a timely video. I haves few roses in containers. For those of us who have more roses than land, this is good way to enjoy them. Always learn something from you

I have found getting a wide edge cutlery kitchen knife & aerating the top 3 inches of soil, helps the rose so much. Gives that extra deep drink of water & oxygen it wants, done in late afternoon or evening after watering every few weeks. Not in freezing temperatures.

How lovely. My mom would love to have climbing roses in containers on either side of an arbor in a circle of pink rock above a stone bench. Now I can make that happen. Thank you!

Thanks for showing us different options. I love all the information as always.

Beautiful color on the coral colored one. Thanks Jason..have a great week

Yes, thanks for the video, my first very serious investment for climbing roses..right now I have 2..

I have one from last year and it really thrives this year.

Thanks for sharing your video! Your garden is beautiful. I’m a gardener too and I’m researching all the things I can grow in containers. I’m happy it led me to find you. I’m so happy it did your channel has so much to offer! This is very helpful. Thanks for teaching me something new. I hope we can learn more from each other as we grow our gardens and our channels! 💐🌸🌺🌻

This is wonderful. I may try this. We live in Maine and a few small rose gardens. I love your channel!

Thank you for speaking clear and easy to understand...

Thank you for catering to us cold weather gardeners! Zone 4b here 😁

thank you for the informative video, the images very clear as well as good narration

Thank you! Very helpful video :) alex from the UK

I'm growing mine in a 24 inch self-watering pot since I'm in the desert climate of los Angeles. So far it has been growing well

Thank you! I am learning a lot watching your videos.

Thanks for your valuable information

Thank you for this tips. Im gonna grow a few climbers on the planters just because digging or make a flower bed are too much work for me😬

Very useful, thank you

Good to know there are repeat climbers hardy to even zone 2 because we really can’t move them indoors during winter. Even a zone 3 repeat climber would suffice because we are in zone 5. Thank you.

I have 2 dozen Rose plants, majority in pots. They all need transplanting! However, they’ve all performed marvellously this year.

Thanks for sharing

Just bought one from Costco, hope it grows

Very helpful. Thank you~~

Very informative thanks so much! Just planted some iceberg roses, hoping to get them to climb on trellis' on the side of my house. Could you maybe do a over time or time lapse video on securing and attaching the rose stems as they grow?

Jason, I am considering ceramics pots that are taller than what you used; 16.5” wide x 21.2” high. The climbing roses are Don Juan, Polka and GoldenShowers. Will 21.2” be deep enough for their root systems? Thank you! I am in Zone 10b.

I find that the cloth pots dry out really, really fast in my area, so I put a 1 inch tall plant saucer inside in the bottom (like, if it's a 16 inch pot, I'd put a 10 inch plant saucer) to hold in some extra water and it doesn't seem to bother them so much and it keeps the water in there a little longer. Also, in my area, those decorative pots are sold w/out any holes in them and I drill a hole in mine about 1 inch from the bottom so that the standing water can't get above 1 inch (like if it were to rain on them).

You make very good videos. Common language and very thorough. I'm a disabled veteran looking into several options for making a little income. Your videos give me confidence and inspiration to "go for it" in a small nursery business. Godspeed

Hello! Thank you so much for this and all your other videos. Keep up the great work! So eloquent and thorough! Quick question. Last year when I planted my rose garden, I didn't plant the roses deep enough to cover the bud union. Do you recommend covering up the bud union with ground soil this spring? It will be a year since I planted the roses. Please and thank you!

I just received a Julia Child rose for Mother's day that I have in a whiskey barrel-type pot. 1- I mixed vermiculite with my potting soil. Do I need to repot it using perlite instead? And 2- what is the best inexpensive trellis to put inside the pot since I don't have anything that it can climb up like you have on your patio. Thanks!

I use a 22 inch white resin pot with pot feet.

Great video , when would you start tying it in ,? And when would you start pruning it many thanks Eddie

Just the video I wanted! Now I need to research discreet structures. The big pots are hard to move. Can they stay put all winter in Zone 5b/6a?

Thank you very much for your informative video. I've ordered two New Dawn climbing rose plants. Would you recommend New Dawn planted in a large container?

Thank you for this!! Can you recommend on how to prune it in the container? I normally prune container shrub roses in the fall and apply dormant and wilt stop to overwinter outside (with burlap wall). Wondering what you would recommend for a container climber overwintering outside. I’m in zone 7a

Hi, Jason, thanks for sharing! Can I put the fabric back inside a plastic pot to keep the temperature warmer for winter and cooler in summer? I plan to plant a bigger climber rose.

Hi, your videos are amazing and have been very helpful. I am a novice at gardening rose plants and currently in USDA zone 9B. I have an iceberg white rose plant that I got three weeks back. But for past few days I have noticed that the buds are getting burnt a little and have a brown tan on them. Some younger buds are completely burnt.Few bigger buds are breaking and falling off :(. Can you please suggest what can I do.

Can you please do a video teaching how to rescue overwater Roses and how to deal with caterpillars that eat the new growth of the Roses. 🙏🏻 thank you.

Hi Jason! Good information in video about pot size but how long can we keep roses in pots? Is it a good solution for long term, and what do we need to do yearly to maintain the roses in pots. Some of my strawberry planters had vine weevil grubs in them. Will roses be safe in pots?

How big of a pot would you recommend for a new dawn, if any at all? Thank you thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge!

I am learning g a lot with your videos. Questions my roses are constantly blooming but I notice the flowers are smaller and and the leaves too...what should I do...Houston here..

Hi Jason, I just bought a bunch of floribundas and hybrid tea rose plants. What size of pots are suitable for these roses? Would you recommend planting them in grow bags? If so, what would be the right size?

Hi, I have a question about 3 climbing roses I purchased 2 years ago…the first year (2 springs ago) they did not provide any blooms, only foliage, this year they were covered in blooms; I cut all the roses and ended up giving a pretty good pruning to them in doing so but even prior to cutting I noticed the newest foliage, not the initial spring foliage covered in buds, was vigorous and quickly getting very long but no buds. It has now been over a month maybe 2 months since I cut the roses and still no new buds on any of the plants. Each rose had a new shoot that was extremely long, about 6 ft that I cut way back bc it had nothing on it. Is this normal?? Thanks so much! Lauren

Hi Jason. I lost my potted rose after adding slow release nitrogen. I think that my pot was too small.

We have a small 3 foot kousa dogwood to plant in memory of a loved one. Because they grow quite tall, is it a bad idea to sink it in a large pot in the ground? Thinking of the roots spreading. Thanks

Hi Jason. Thanks for the video. I am in zone 4b. I just bought the Rosa- rambling red rose. My deck gets a ton of sun through the day, and I’m hoping to pot it. What pot size would you recommend for a rambling rose? Thanks

What are your overwintering recommendations? Especially regarding zone 3. TIA

Thanks!!! I want a yellow climber!! Can you suggest one? Zone 7A southern exposure.

I bought one of those fabric pots , at the beginning I thought it was great but soon I realized it doesn't keep the moisture enough time to next watering, I also used a mix soil with perlite, humus and coconut fiber .

Hi! Thank you so much for this helpful video. Do rose bushes grown in ceramic pots do well through the winter? I’m in zone 6 and just bought a beautiful David Austin rose bush. I rent, so I’m debating planting it into a pot instead of into the ground so I can take it with me when I eventually move, but I worry it won’t do well through the winter. I don’t have a great place to overwinter it, so it would need to stay outside in the garden. Do you have any advice? Thank you in advance for your help!

Does the placement in the pot itself make any difference? My inclination would be to place it closer to one edge, then that the edge that sits against the climbing wall. Also I guess a square pot would be good if going against the house so it sat more flush...

Can i plant succulents or other plants around the base of the plant or will that interfere with the roots

what do you do to winterize these? do you move the containers even thought it’s being trained?

Hi Jason! I can never seem to get an answer to this… How do you overwinter a rose that is grown in a container? I live in zone 6A but I using choose roses for zone 5. Thanks

How about in Zone 5 where winter can dip down to 10 degrees F? My concern is the roots can freeze inside the pot in freezing temps. They don't have the insulating protection if planted in the ground. What are your thoughts?

I'm in USDA Zone 5. Will the rose overwinter outside in the pot, or do I need to move it into shelter every winter?

How does this affect them in the long run? Will they get root bound quickly and need to be re-potted frequently?

Great info. The Outside Container has holes for Draining ? 😊 🙏

How do you handle cold winters for climbers in containers? Zone 7a. It’s not like you can move them indoors.

Hello from Sweden. I have a question about fertilizing .. I bought a Ghislaine de feligonde. I have planted it in a large pot, and it is 60cm high and a lot of buds. Should I give it fertilizer….

Awesome video Could you also make some video on how to grow bogainvillea climbers in pots? Do the same rules apply?

Any thoughts on growing an Eden rose in a very large pot in zone eight?

Thank you for this video! Can you advise me on the care of a potted rose 2-3 years later? Do you replace all potting soil every year? I think the container is not draining as well as it did. Could I be watering it too much? Should I take rose out of pot altogether and start over with the soil? If so, can I do that at this time of year?

I live in Zone 5 (Northern Chicago). Would I cut the rose down in the winter and bring the container into the garage? Or leave outside? Many thanks!

What is the hardiness zone for southern Vancouver Island? Also, we cannot have water dripping from our balcony to other balconies below. How can I control this?

Will roses tolerate semi-hydro? I have never heard anyone comment on this topic I wonder if you’ve ever experimented with it. Thank you for your hard work! I really appreciate your postings. 😎

I have planted a Joseph's Coat rose at a grave site for my son Joseph. There is no place for it to climb. Do I need to put a trellis in or can become a bush or may grow lateral across the grave it self? Any advise.

Hello, is there a particular reason why you didn’t just plant the rose in the big pot instead of the black pot? I am new to growing roses and don’t have much sun other than on my patio which will require them to be in pots. Your videos have been very informative. Thank you.

Do your guidelines follow for climbing roses that have been in the ground for about five years (poss future video) How about prune both the roots and shoots and when would be best time (season) to carry it out SMILES

Hi Jason, what do you think about growing roses in bottomless pot? Would it make easier (and safer) for the rose to be moved in a different spot if needed? There will be roots damages but maybe less than having to take it out from the ground. Not to mention less work to be done for the gardener!

Thanks so much for the video, I am getting in alot of climbers this spring for my patio area, and am taking your recommendation, is there a general rule for how long they can live in a pot? Thank you.

Hi, if a new climbing rose is planted in a raised bed, how much water would you suggest and how often ?

I have just brought home a large Eden climbing rose plant for my balcony in Paris. The nursing container is already 26x26 cm. Should I repot directly or let it acclimate to my balcony first? I only get 1-1.5 hours of direct sunlight but otherwise it is very bright. The guy at the nursery said it would be be great for them. He tied the roses up for their journey home. I am wondering if I should untie it? Some of the roses are heavy and drooping down to where their stems are almost snapping. Is this a sign to begin training it? I don’t know how much longer we will live here so my fear is having to leave her behind if I move and she is trained to the building but she is already very tall and seems to need support. Thank you for your expertise and tips if you have any for me!

How often do you need to change the potting mix in the pot? I have some on a deck out all year and I wonder if the potting mix breaks down after awhile? Thank you!

Can I grow Arabian jasmine with my New dawn climbing rose? I've googled it and can't find anything definite I thought Jason would know. I'm zone 7b north Alabama mountains.

Very informative and i'm watching your videos all the time.. I want to know about this soil mix because i always trying to plant roses in pots and garden but it 's unsuccessful.. can you give me informations regarding this soil mixture..Thank you..

Hi Jason. Is soil which was used for harvesting garlic suitable for growing a rose?

I’ve really been enjoying your channel and learning a lot. 🌹Why do some rose companies say not to use granular fertilizer in pots and others use it quite successfully? This has been a point of confusion for me. One company has a year guarantee on their roses UNLESS you use granular fertilizer, which voids that warranty. Clearly, your plants are flourishing. Can you please clarify this for me, Jason? Thank you in advance.

Oh my goodness Jason, I bought my very first climber, 'John Davis' last year and was heartbroken when the rabbits ate it down to the nubbin. Luckily it has made a comeback, growing very well but alas no blooms as yet : ( Do you think you could do a video on how to prune down to healthy stalks for a climber, unless you already have one?

I need to know how to maintain during the winter?

Hi,😊 I enjoy watching your videos... very useful information I have question please can I move a climbing rose from the ground to a pot now? I live in London, I planted it last year in a shady spot and not growing very well or I have to wait till Autumn🌹🌹🌹🌹

im living in a tropical country, may you please recommend a variety suited for us? please

Do you need to change soil in the container each year?

Jason, I would love to use pots for my roses but what about overwintering? I live in 5b northeast Pa. and not sure what to do for winter. Could you give some suggestions or advice please. Love your video

Great content as usual. What if I grew them in Bottomless containers like how Bunny Guinness does on her channel.

Hi, i live in Malaysia and have growing New Dawn in my garden, i fertilize the plant every 2 weeks. i wonder why it is not blooming. Kindly please advise.

Will a rose get too hot in a clay pot ? Or is it better to use double plastic ?

Morning what do I do with my roses planter in winter zone5 are winters are very cold?

How do u winterize it, zone 5 here

Do you think planing a bareroot climber directly into a 22 inch pot is okay? I’m not really wanting to repot to a bigger size. I’d rather just plant it once and be done

Is it even possible to grow a climbing rose in a container in zone 5a? I'm thinking more about how to winterize it (if that's even possible)? Thank you!!!

Please suggest me the potting mix in detail for climbing rose 🙏

will they still live for a very long time, or do they end up just dying after 3-5 years?
