Answer by jaimin
A rose tree is a regular rose variety that has been grafted onto another rose with a stronger cane, the part that looks like the trunk of the tree. Trimming a rose tree serves two functions. First, pruning is necessary to promote healthy growth of the roses and is done as you would normally do with a hybrid tea rose bush. Throughout the summer, deadhead the rose blooms after they have died, and in spring, remove dead branches and other branches to strengthen the rose. Second, trimming the rose tree into a dome shape maintains the aesthetic, making it look more tree-like.

Answer by pmc123
Rose bushes are deciduous, and do not grow in during the winter. they are usually cut back in fall and covered with leaves or mulch to protect them from frost. Left exposed, they are easily damaged by frost.

Can you give me advice on growing roses?

Question by Amber D: Can you give me advice on growing roses?
I came across two very beautiful species of roses – Charles de Mills, and Souvenir de la Malmaison. I’ll be getting married in about 1 1/2 years, and I was considering growing some of these two roses (they look like they would make a gorgeous bouquet). However, I don’t know much at all about growing roses, and I’m betting that much like African Violets, there is a technique and some know-how that will make them successful. What do you suggest I do? Try to grow these roses? (and if so, what tips do you have) or find a florist to get them for me to make a bouquet?

Answer by Joseph
dry them? there is no way to keep them fresh for long.

you could find a book you don’t like and place the petals between the pages. its inefficient but they would last a little while.

Why aren’t my Moss Roses growing?

Question by Lianna: Why aren’t my Moss Roses growing?
I’ve planted some Moss Roses from seeds. They sprouted about a week ago, but they have not grown since then. They look the exact same size as the day I saw the sprouted first. Why is that? All the other seeds of other things I’ve planted are growing each day. I even have some seeds which sprouted a few days after the Moss Roses, and are not much bigger than the roses.

Best answer:

Answer by cajundude1
I had Moss Roses before. It seems that as long as the weather is cool , they will not grow much. Provide a warm cozy place for them where the indirect sun can reach them. They are not very large plants anyhow. Be patient.

Of course you can. Haven’t you ever heard of a hothouse? Where do you think florists get roses out of “season”?
