Thank you

Hello, first of all I would love to say that I love your speaking,your English sound like listening comfortable music to me, I am from Japan but live in UK for a long time. I learned today from you Sky and Heaven expression when you explain about artificial fertilizer in shops shelves. Also I like the way you say, this little fellow about the new rose shoot on the ground. Few words made me smile. I don’t know why just I loved it. I have Japanese accent English and not 100% either. But I try to pick up new words and expression from other people and copy and use it when I have a chance. I am learning roses and have DA roses in my backyard. I come from Cherry blossom country from Japan but I love roses here in UK. Thank you for the video tutorial and rhythmical beautiful English I could understand whole what you said. I have subscribed you today. See you here again. Best Wishes 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹 🌸🌸🌸🌸 🌸

Soooooooo true! This is such a great and informative video! I love the worms in my garden! They truly are super heroes of the plant world.. and mycorrhizae! 👍👍❤

I'm in Central California, Zone 9b, with 106ish rose bushes. In the past, I normally used just steer or chicken manure to fertilize my roses , and they did well. This year, I switched it up. I applied one cup of alfalfa pellets to each rose in January. In February, I covered the beds with steer or chicken manure. In March, I applied 3/4 cup Rose Tone to each rose and have repeated the RT every month. These roses exploded with blooms like never before! It was hard to keep up with the dead-heading, as there were so many blooms. I really enjoy your videos and have learned so much from you.

Cool stuff! My collection is also growing.

Great educational video 👍👍 I don't have any David Austin roses ans wondered if I should get some. Very useful information

Thank you for your experience fertilize roses .it really really helpful ! I am using the miracle Gro all purpose right now and after cutting ,I use fish fertilizer, but I definitely going to use what you are recommend . it’s really good organic fertilizer, thank you so much again for sharing

the most poetic garden channel here on KZfaq. Btw, Olga.. I didn't notice you have another spot for Generous Gardener? in your recent videos there are only one spot on the gate, the one who has birdnest. 💕❤️

How many roads are beautiful, thank you for the information. I enjoy watching your videos.

Thank you for sharing your beautiful roses and letting us know how to grow roses healthy. I purchased Lady of Chalott, I like this roses very much. From Japan, I would like to visit Cotswolds ,England and Sissinghust next year to see roses if possible. Please let me know the best season to see roses.

Hi Olga, Thank you so much for this video. Just wanted to know whether you have ever used Down to Earth Rose & Flower Mix fertilizer or Osmocot .

I didn't see you mention how often to fertilize and what time of year to do the first fertilization after laying compost and manure in springtime when leaves are just fluffing out. I do like your videos.

Thank you. I am so glad you are a believer and proponent of organic gardening. I switched to natural sources a few years ago after I almost killed my plants with synthetic fertilizer as I misread the concentrations. Thanks for the helpful information!

I am so thrilled that i found your channel. Excellent information. I have subscribed. Question: We just bought this home in northern California. We have very hot summers and cold winters. No snow. The garden has thirteen rose bushes that are poorly pruned and growing every which way. I have spent a lot of time in trying to get them to not only look good but also to be healthy. I only use organic everything in our garden. Should we pull them out and start all over again? I have planted six new David Austin roses in containers and one over the arbor. I love David Austin roses. Help! Thank you so much.

We liked and enjoyed to the end. Thanks Have a happy day!

Happy day Olga, l9ve the videos, please let me know about the lovely piano background music, I can't find anywhere who plays so I can listen to it,.love it

Agreed that it's all in soil quality. I work in a compost/manure mix, alfalpha pellets and an organic slow release granular fertilizer at the start of the season, followed by a liquid organic fertilizer later on. Lots of water once or twice per week depending on temperature and heat wave. Liquid or water soluble chemical fertilizers are a quick fix and best applied for emergency purposes only since they're available to the roots almost immediately. There's no need to use chemicals when the soil is healthy and maintained organically. You bring the best out of David Austin roses! 🌹

I n the very early spring after the first pruning i feed bone meal ,blood meal,and composted cow manure. I have planted olivia rose austin ,in a processional at the roof less church site in new harmony indiana . Along side there are also many companion plants,sutch as thyme,lavender,asorted garden Salvia,and bee balms and anise hyssop. Low growing winter jewel box woods serve as front border and retainer. In front of the box woods there is an annual planting of mexican heather and verbena. This all enclosed by high brick walls that hold brutal intense heat in the summer. Only the strong survive ln this environment,and the austin rose has done every thing they said it would do. Periodically at expected bloom times i also feed alfalfa meal tea.

Very helpful! What is the naam of the beautiful rose pinkorange one, in the snapshots?

Beautiful garden you have. Even I agree to go with organic, because that keeps soil as well as plant more healthy. Do you have any video on standard tree roses? If yes please share.🇮🇳😊

Can I use the way for the rose in container or for any different flowers and can you show me how to grow rose in a container please ? Thank you somuch .

how do you prepare the soil to transfer a potted rose to the ground? and is it ok to transplant it any time of the year?

Would you mind reminding us the name of this famous musical piece you used here? It goes perfectly with the roses. :)

Thanks so much for your detailed explanation. I have David Austin Roses which seem to attract lots of bugs and aphids probably due to the fragrance. The only way I could prevent the roses from becoming bald with only stems was to spray home made diluted natural soap water. Do you have similar issues and how do you suggest I treat them?

I love the bricks that you have lining your rose bed and your new boxwoods - where did you get them? And what does it say going all the way around?

Hello Olga, Love your garden so much ❤️. Pease let me know whether can I use Cinder as media for DA roses? Specially Queen of Sweden, I am from India.

Super! +291

Hi olga im in birmingham uk, quite wet, cant tell what summers gonna be like, last year we got drenched year before got scorched. I need your help with my lady of shalott. Got 2, bare root in. Sail, doing badly 3rd year now spindly short hardly flowers if at all. Got potted one in large pot 2yr old doing little better but still disappointing. I use half John innes no.3 half good quality compost, spade full of peat. What's wrong. ? All my other DAs are happy.

Hi Olga - love your videos! I also live in CT zone 6B and you inspired me to buy 3 Lady of Shallot rose bushes earlier this year. They are growing very quickly and they’re producing blossoms but not as many as I thought they would- maybe that’s because it’s their first year and they’re focused on growing? I fed them earlier in the summer with RoseTone but I’ll check out your suggestions for fertilizing. Also, they’ve been very healthy but due to our wet summer they’re now struggling with some blackspot - any suggestions? Thank you!

Hello Olga, I have a question for you. I nourish my roses with only horse manure. Is that OK? Thanks for your insight and guidelines. And by the way, you have a lovely garden! 🌹

How often would u fertilize the plant? Thanks for sharing.

A big problem with fertilizers in general is almost all of them their NPK ratio is highly outdated and harms the plant. For general purpose or blooming it should have a ratio around 2:1:3 with potassium around or slightly higher than nitrogen and phosphorous half of the nitrogen. There was a study that showed high phosphorous fertilizers reduce number of blooms by 20%. Other studies show they make the roots very woody and unable to properly transport nutrients as well as they should. Beyond looking at the ratio of the three numbers people just flat out give too much fertilizer for many plants. Some are heavy feeders but many aren't and we give too much. Third is the fertilizer is just NPK, no magnesium, calcium, silica, boron and so on plants need too. Fourth is nitrate nitrogen gives much healthier plants with thicker more robust leaves less prone to disease and piercing pests than urea or ammonium based nitrogen fertilizers. The fact is there aren't many decent fertilizers on the market even now in the year 2023 which is sad. The absolute best is amino acid chelated mineral fertilizer and there is only one product on the market for years now that has it and it's not like the ingredients are super expensive either. The fertilizer industry needs to update their formulas they are terrible.

Hi I planted some David Austin and only after a week or so the flowers dropped. Also I noticed some holes in them along with my hibiscus that's right next to it

Hi Olga, another wonderful video. I have been using a liquid feed every 1/2 weeks here in the UK...haven't really thought whether it is artificial or not....(oops) but I have read recently to use farmyard manure to improve the soil. Do you use liquid feeds? Do you think I should just replace liquid feed with manure or similar pellets to what you used? Thank you xx

Здравствуйте 🤝 я из Россия 🇷🇺👍👍👍

Hi Olga. I live in the North of France zone 9b oceanic and I have ordered Lady of Shalot and Mrs Alfred Carrière both are bare root which should be arriving soon.so excited 😊. I've been researching planting methods and came across box planting. What do you think about that? Also should I mulch those new roses with manure? Also is it necessary to feed roses with manure and an organic feed? If I only use manure during dormancy will the rose suffer? Many thanks for your videos I always look forward to watching them.

You mentioned about basal canes being important. I have heard that if your rose is not on own root and canes are coming from underneath you need to cut them off because it is created from another root stock that has been grafted. Is this true? Thank you

Hi what about fertilzer in pot? I am in india and we have neem , mustard, bonemeal,rose mix ,npk 19:19:19, dap . Which one should i go for, how much and what frequency?

Great video. Thank you. What rose is this? I thought you said lady of shallot, but the images in this video show the rose as being kind of pinkish, not so orange. Nevermind, just watched your shrub and climbing rose video where you answered my question! 😂

What a lovely outfit :) Does this mean you only fertilize the roses in the Spring with the manure and granular fertilizer? I thought we were to do a midseason dose as well?

Nature is good for you and your guidance .can I want climber rose in india Maharashtra .

Hi Olga! I just planted a bare root roses and used a starter fertilizer.. being that is almost March, when is the next time I should Fertilize it? Till late fall?

Hi Olga. Nice channel. Do you know Sweet Roses of Mine and Gardeners of the World groups on facebook? Not all of us live in the northern henisphere. Where do you live? I would like to see if I can adapt your advice.

David austin roses has such thin petals. I'm still wishing to buy my first rose. What would you recommend? I have a container garden so I'm thinking of patio roses

Hi, I liked your video and the roses are really Unique abd beautiful. I have ordered Austin Copper Yello Colored rose plants. I have a question for you, can we use some organic fertilizer as Wastage of oil seed (like mustard or Peanuts after they get processed in oil mills)

Did you recomend some organic fertilizer for European countries? I find difficult to find a good fertilizer here in Portugal

Здравствуйте, Ольга У вас сказочный садолес, наверное, весьма затенённый? Как розы переносят полутень? СпасиБо

Do you lay three inches of the Black Kow cow manure or the compost? Thank you

I used just the David Austin rose fertilizer this past year and they did just okay. There was only 2 little feeding per year and am considering trying your method next year. Have you ever used just there own fertilizer from David Austin?

how you can to feed for leaves so smooth and glossy

how do you manage Botrytis Blight

What is the fertilizer you use for the DA roses? And where do you buy it? Thank you for the help!

How much cow manure would you give to each plant?
