Grade 1 Bare root roses

Post by aykhan »

Just thought I'd share some pictures of bare root roses which I had my friend bring for me. These are grade 1 two year old. My famous comparison shoe for size is also there :D

I don't have much knowledge of roses but just wondering could it be late considering weather......do they have buds?

Last year I planted them in the heat of June since and it was tough but most survived. At that time I had piled them up with peat moss so the canes don't dry out. This year it's not bad since I got them early. Most have sprouted and are doing well just 5 days in ground. I am however, keeping a close eye on them. If intense heat can wait a couple more weeks I think I'm good :)

yes these are grade one two years bare rooted roses.in the Western market the grafted roses are offered when they are of minimum of two years.But here the roses are just of six months.so thats why i always remove the first season buds to make the bushes stronger.G 1 are great to start.

Yes khan saheb it only needs to develop the small feeder roots. I did
Prune off some diseases roots so there is
Some stress but overall they are well developed to take blooms right away.

One thing Khan sb which i have learned in my gardening experience is that two flowering plants Roses & Amaryllis can bear great stress.this rose is gonna establish a very promising bush.there are also some more plants which can bear great stress but rose & Amaryllis are my most loved flowers.
