transplanting roses

Transplanting roses is often a simple solution to disappointing performance. As you can see this Iceberg has been struggling. The first step is to dig a hole 60 x 60cm wide and 50cm deep. Then the rose should be cut back in more or less the same fashion as I am demonstrating. The idea is to reduce the stress of maintaining too many leaves on the roots. The fewer, remaining leaves make it easier for them to successfully re-establish themselves. As you can see, I am not being technical about where the cut is made. Simply cutting back from the tips to reduce the twiggery and leaves. In South Africa, roses become semi dormant at the beginning of autumn or May - the best time to move them as the root shock is minimised. Transplanting is done when roses: • have become overshadowed by growing trees and shrubs and additionally suffer from root competition. • poor drainage. • soil compaction. • were planted in the wrong place or when the rose’s height does not fit. Now I am pushing the spade’s blade into the ground and working a circle around the bush. The idea is to cut the roots that might be anchoring the rose and to dig it up with as much soil clinging to as many roots as possible. A rose that did not grow well is usually easy to dig up and like in this case, not too much soil comes with the plant as it does not have that many roots. But that is exactly why we are transplanting it, so that it can grow many new fine hair roots in its new position. Mix a good soil conditioner with the new hole’s soil liberally. You should never apply a granular fertiliser as the salts are hot on the roots and easily burn them. However it is a very good idea to mix a measuring cup of our VIGOLONGER controlled release fertiliser in with the soil conditioner as this will guarantee an unequalled performance. Roses love good drainage. By working in compost and loosening the soil one creates a nicely aerated environment in which the roots can thrive and that in turn will result in good, healthy green growth and many, many blooms. By spring this rose will look ten times better than what it did before and it will carry on performing for many seasons to come. Fill the hole half way. Position the rose so that the bud union will be slightly under the soil level. Simply fill the hole up with the nicely enriched soil. Tread around the bush to secure it into place. Then form a little dam around the rose and water it well. You can now water the plant daily for the next week and then switch to once a week and pick up as the days become warmer and longer. This will not only give your rose plant a new lease on life but your whole garden will look more vibrant. Thank you for watching. Happy gardening!
