Planting bare root roses and bare root rose care.

  • Bare Root Roses are dispatched by mail when dormant during winter months.
  • On arrival it is essential that you immediately 'unpack' your new roses and check for damage. If the rose is badly damaged, send it back
  • Any minor damage such as small broken canes or roots should be trimmed with sharp sterile secateurs.
  • We tend to soak our bare root roses for 2 hours and then plant immediately. Others recommend to Re hydrate the roots by soaking overnight in of water or better still a mild solution of seaweed fertilizer.
  • Prepare your planting hole by digging twice as wide and deep as required and then form a mound in the center of the hole to support the plant at the right level. This gives the roots a good chance to grow down into the ground. If the soil is poor you may wish to dig in some well rotted manure or compost, this is not usually required.
  • If you are planning to use a stake to support the rose, place this in the ground now, before the rose, this avoids root damage.
  • Place the rose on top of the mound, back fill the hole, tie the rose to the support and water in well using a mild solution of seaweed fertilizer.
