Red rose in Vermont South garden design by Parveen Dhaliwal

Roses

Landscape Design, Plants

Posted by Parveen

My association with roses goes back to my childhood.Β  For me, it was the distinctive perfume of the rose that my mum grew that drew us to this plant.Β  Even risking a cut or two from its thorns just to take as many deep breaths in of its intoxicating perfume!

My mum is the real gardener in the family and who has the most green fingers.Β  There is nothing that she’s ever planted that has never grown.Β  I still remember her going for walks in the evening and coming back with at least a couple of plants.Β  Roses were amongst them and she would stick them in somewhere in the garden.Β  There was always a spot!

Here are 9 things you should consider when planting roses.

1. What climate roses need to grow in and whats the best spot in your garden

Roses typically grow in warm dry climates.Β  They have been bred or have adapted to the humidity of hot tropical climates and areas with low winter temperatures that drop as low as 10 degrees Celsius (as an example).

So in other words, chose a variety that is suitable for your climate.Β  However, there is nothing stopping you from getting any as long as you provide the right growing conditions for it.Β  If you really want one that you are absolutely enamoured with, just have a go!

Where to plant them

The best spot to plant them is always in full sun to maximise their flowering tenacity.

2. What soil to grow roses in

Modern day roses tolerate a wide range of soils as they are grafted on appropriate hardy root stock.

The ideal soil has a pH of around 6.5-7 (slightly acid to neutral).Β  A simple and inexpensive soil kit from Bunnings will give the pH and instructions for how to modify it if necessary.

I find that they grow best in soil that is mixed with lots of organic matter or compost and some well-rotted animal manure which breaks down and conditions the soil and provides nutrients for the growing plant.

3. How to prepare the soil

When digging in the organic matter and manure, ensure that you cultivate or mix the existing soil with the new material you are adding in rather than creating two distinct layers in the soil profile.

Depending on the size of the root ball of the plant you’re planting in, I’d generally go a foot deep into the soil and a couple of pots size wide.Β  What you don’t want to do it to dig too deep as this will create a weak point in the soil for water to accumulate to (particularly if it’s clay soil) and may drown out the plant’s roots.

Doing all of the above will not only improve the soil’s drainage and helps the new plant’s establish a better and stronger peripheral root system.

4. Are they easy to grow / maintain

Roses are relatively easy to grow.Β  It is important though follow through with the right soil preparation.Β  Setup and follow a set pruning, fertilising and watering regiment.Β  Once you have a routine or schedule in place, it just becomes habit.Β  You can then enjoy a happy, profusely flowering and thriving plant!

As with any other plant in your garden, I’d advise that you wander about every two weeks to see how your roses are doing.Β  Make it more often if you’ve got new plants in place.

5. What to feed roses

Like citrus, I find that roses are β€œhungry” plants and require plenty of well-timed feeding to maximise their potential.

Feeding starts at planting time so the compost and well-rotted manure that have been used in preparing the soil will be in good stead for a while.

The initial nutrients will soon be depleted so it will be good practice to continue to improve the soil profile

annually with a good top up of compost and well-rotted manure.Β Β If you are optimum flowering performance though an additional boost is required using specially formulated rose fertilisers like Neutrog’s Sudden Impact for Roses.

Regularity

Apply the first dose of fertiliser in spring before the leaves open fully and another one in early or mid-summer when the roses are in full bloom.

I’d suggest to avoid feeding them in late summer as this may encourage them to produce soft growth that could be damaged in a cold winter.

6. How often to water them

Roses have deep roots so they do not show signs of water stress until a drought is prolonged.Β  Established plants generally cope better with drought conditions.Β  So do pay more attention to newly planted roses, never allowing them to dry out.

As with most plants, a good thorough soaking is better than regular dribbles.Β  Consider investing in a drip hose system to manage evaporative water loss and abide by any local watering restrictions.

7. Pruning

Roses respond well to regular dead-heading.Β  Do this throughout their flowering season in spring and summer.Β  This promotes the production of fresh blooms on repeat-flowering roses.Β  Do not head-head, however, if your rose is the type that is grown for their decorative hips!

So when’s the best time to give a rose a really hard prune?Β  It’s when winter has properly set in and the plant is dormant.Β  In doing this, remember to be brutal.Β  Remove dead, interlocking branches or inward growing branches.Β  This improves its shape and air circulation around the plant.Β  Good air circulation is important to prevent any fungal diseases from attacking your lovely rose!

Remove any rose hips at this stage.Β  This helps conserves the plants energy to put it towards sprouting new growth as soon as the weather warms in early spring.

8. Fungal diseases and pests

Watch out for any signs of fungal diseases or aphid attacks on the young buds.Β  These are two common complaints from my clients and what I observe in my own garden.

Fungal Diseases

Fungal diseases in roses mainly manifest on the leaves.Β  You’ll either see black spots, some rusty patches or whitish-grey powdering on the leaves.

Manage these fungal diseases by using appropriate sprays.Β  If left untreated, depending on the disease, it may be fatal to the plant.Β  I use Yates Rose Gun Advanced and Rose Gun Black spot for my roses.Β  They help control a minor infection and are a good preventative measure.

Prune off the affected leaves.Β  The general advice is not to recycle them in your compost material as they are diseased.

Aphids

Managing aphid infestations is relatively easy.Β  Either go the organic way and plant companion plants which attract beneficial insects.Β  Insects like ladybirds wander in and stay in your garden over time and produce young which feed on the aphids.Β  Therefore, this is a long term measure of controlling the aphid population in your garden and the results are seen over time.Β  Personally, I find it very effective on my roses.Β  I have very young children and am therefore reluctant to use synthetic chemicals in my garden unless its unavoidable.Β  I have not had an aphid infestation for many years now as a result of expanding my plant palette in my garden.

The other method which is more commonly used is to spray the affected plants with a proprietary systematic insecticide.Β  Do this as soon as the infection in noticed and repeat as directed by the manufacturer.Β  A gentler approach though (and less harmful one to beneficial insects) is to use a home-made spray.Β  Make this spray from normal dish washing soap and water.Β  You may have to repeat daily though to effectively control the infestation this way.

9. Mulch

Mulch with either compost or bark mulch to reduce water evaporation and help suppress weeds.

If you truly love nature, you will find beauty eve If you truly love nature, you will find beauty everywhere. ⁠
~ Vincent Van Gogh⁠
⁠
Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890), perhaps the most famous artist in the world, is perceived by many as the 'mad' artist, the man who painted in a frenzy or simply the tormented soul who cuts off his ear. ⁠
⁠
His artistic genius is often overshadowed by those who see his paintings as mere visual manifestations of his troubled mind. Whilst in part this may be true, in reality his innovative and unique artistic style was of enormous importance to a host of artists who followed in his wake. ⁠
⁠
The career of Vincent van Gogh as a painter was short, but his paintings revolutionized artistic practice and styles. ⁠
⁠
The intensity of his vision, his wonderful sense of colour, and the extraordinary boldness of his technique created masterpieces that exercise a profound influence on the art of the twentieth century.⁠
⁠
Amazing!!! πŸ’š
Loving the texture and the different greens in thi Loving the texture and the different greens in this one! ⁠
⁠
An open garden I visited ages ago and one I admired a lot as it had a lot of features I wanted in my own garden. 🀩⁠
⁠
It was the first time I actually paid attention to what the emotional pull in this combo was for me.  It turns out that it was the lime green colour of leaves (one of my fav colours) and the knowledge (and anticipation) that it will turn a beautiful autumn colour when it's ready! πŸ‚β 
⁠
Love the impact of seasonality where something happens all the time in the garden and keeps it interesting for me!⁠
⁠
What in your garden gives you that emotional pull and what is your favourite seasonality impact? πŸ’š
The reason why I love sculptures is the fact that The reason why I love sculptures is the fact that if they are done right, they can add various visuals and nuances to a project.⁠
⁠
I've posted 2 other pictures of this particular sculpture done by Nancy Holt in the Great Basin Desert, Utah.⁠
⁠
If you scroll through my insta feed you will come across them and see what I mean.  One of the other pictures posted shows the same exact view in sunset whilst the other considers artificial but fun and colourful lighting.⁠
⁠
It's my approach to design.  Considering layers of complexity and getting the maximum use and enjoyment of the space that you design!πŸ€©πŸ’šβ 
⁠
Now a little bit more about the Sun Tunnels project by Nancy Holt, 1973–76. ⁠
⁠
Nancy Holt was an American artist most known for her public sculpture, installation art, concrete poetry, and land art. Throughout her career, Holt also produced works in other media, including film and photography, and wrote books and articles about art.⁠
⁠
Sun Tunnels marks the yearly extreme positions of the sun on the horizonβ€”the tunnels being aligned with the angles of the rising and setting of the sun on the days of the solstices, around June 21st and December 21st. On those days the sun is cantered through the tunnels, and is nearly centre for about ten days before and after the solstices.⁠

Altona North 2022⁠ ⁠ Another project where I w Altona North 2022⁠
⁠
Another project where I was requested to maximise the potential of a small space with a tight budget. ⁠
⁠
The challenge with this one was to create a relaxed feel being surrounded by lush (low maintenance) plants whilst keeping it simple and functional.  Privacy was also an issue as the neighbours could see through the existing fence right into my lovely clients dining room!⁠
⁠
What I especially love about this project is that it has some artistic elements that suit the client's aesthetics and follows overall feel of the interiors but then adds another new vibe to the outdoors.  This garden is currently being constructed so I’m hoping to share some completion pictures in the next couple of months to show you what I mean!⁠
⁠
Some of the works (including artistic elements) will be DYI and some will be undertaken by the landscaper I normally put my clients in touch with!⁠

So watch this space!!! πŸ’š
Opuntia stricta was introduced to Australia in the Opuntia stricta was introduced to Australia in the 1830s to provide hedging material in arid regions. ⁠
⁠
It quickly covered vast areas, but in an early example of natural management was brought under control by introduced insects.⁠
⁠
They are succulent perennials that invade rangeland and native vegetation in the drier parts of South Australia. ⁠
⁠
Wheel cactus (Opuntia robusta) and common prickly pear (Opuntia stricta) are the most prominent species.⁠

It's amazing how simply refreshing an existing space can lighten up your mood!⁠
⁠
The client loves this view as this is what greets them as they pull up their driveway after being away at work for the day.πŸ’šβ 
⁠
All we did here was to create an actual path around the existing pear tree which gives a lot of autumn colour to the front garden and shades the space in summer.⁠
⁠
We included a selection of our favourite wispy low maintenance grasses and a few large bromeliads as further accent points in the garden and to inject a little more colour during spring and summer!⁠
⁠
We love retaining existing vegetation rather than starting with a completely clean slate as its good karma too!⁠ πŸ™β 
⁠
We can't wait to get back to this garden this Spring and see how it's all grown and to spruce it up before the property goes on for sale.  We absolutely loved working with our lovely clients on this project and that it gave them much enjoyment over the last couple of years! 

Hope that you all have had a wonderful weekend and a happy Mother’s Day too! πŸ’š

⁠
This was a project I started designing back in 2020 and which had many stops and starts.  Mainly due to COVID and the underlying renovations taking place.⁠
⁠
So I started with the rear garden and before even knew it was asked to expand my design scope to include a redesign of my lovely client's front garden too! ⁠
⁠
I really loved working with her in retaining the framework of the existing garden (existing established trees) and incorporating some new plants to bring it all together.⁠
⁠
The design includes an expansion of the driveway too so that there's plenty of parking when her kids have their own cars in a couple of years time. ⁠
⁠
I was very careful to minimise the impact on the existing garden beds but had to make the grassed area a wee bit smaller. ⁠

Beautiful spiral conifers along this particular st Beautiful spiral conifers along this particular street in Turin, Italy.  Just wow!⁠ πŸ’šβ 
⁠
The spiral form is my favourite type of topiary - ie the way in which a human structures the shape of a plant.⁠
⁠
Researching this, I've found out that this artform dates back to the Greek and Roman civilizations, but was perfected by Italian artists during the Renaissance.⁠
⁠
It regained popularity when the Victorians included topiaries in their cottage gardens and is still included in many garden designs today.  I love to have them in my designs if my clients are up to maintaining these lovelies! ⁠
⁠
Most of the conifers usually transformed into spirals begin with a cone like shape. ⁠
⁠
Contrary to popular believe (ie I get asked this question a lot), this is not something that can be done successfully with a mature conifer but is an artform which starts with a young tree.⁠
⁠
To start, locate the central leader of the tree, making it the top of your cone. Using long-handled shears, shape the tree from the top down.  Wait a few years at least and you'll have a lovely shaped specimen like the picture (although it will take time to fill up and get large!)⁠
⁠
Patience is key and something you'll enjoy in the long term!! πŸ’š
The hairy cactus is widely known for its long hair The hairy cactus is widely known for its long hairs. ⁠
⁠
Spotted this one in one of my favourite nurseries and it felt sooooo soft and playfully reminded me of a greyed version Cousin Itt from the Addam's Family! πŸ’šβ 
⁠
These striking hair are modified spines that protects the cacti from frost and sunlight. As well as keeping the heat from the day to prevent the plant from freezing. ⁠
⁠
The white fuzzy hairs can get dirty or turn brownish over time. You can give them a cleaning by mixing a small amount of liquid castile soap and water. (Organic unscented castile soap free of dyes is best although organic soaps will also work well.) ⁠
⁠
Carefully wash off all the soap in the sink or with a hose. Make sure the soap does not seep into the soil though. Comb the hair β€” yes, actually comb the hair β€” upward to help it dry!!!⁠ 😁⁠
⁠

⁠
They require minimal care and, by following a few simple guidelines, will do well.⁠
⁠
Plant your new succulents in well draining potting mix - try a blend of regular potting mix with cactus mix, coarse sand or perlite/vermiculite to improve drainage. ⁠
⁠
Water well then allow the potting mix to dry out before re-watering.⁠

" Come forth into the light of things. Let nature " Come forth into the light of things. Let nature be your teacher." ~ William Wordsworth⁠
⁠
This quote from William shows the significance of his view on nature. He feels that you shouldn’t have to think about what other people think, or if things are right or not, but to just let nature take its course and take you with it where ever it made lead. ⁠
⁠
He is saying that if you are confused or wants to get to the deeper meaning and core of things, then don’t try hard because that will only confuse you and turn you in the wrong direction. Just give up your all and let whatever feels right take you and if nature wants you do unordinary things then so be it. ⁠
⁠
What do you think? Is he right? πŸ’š

⁠
This project was also interesting from a business point of view as I realised I really enjoyed experimenting different options with my client and helping them see, in real time, what options could work for them whilst whittling away the ones that didn't suit them at all.⁠
⁠
This process takes longer to do of course and definitely would cost the client more, but they really get to understand definitively how the garden would suit them and truly realise the full potential their outdoor space.⁠
⁠
Can't wait to create more designs such as this one and hear back from clients when they enjoy their creations over time with their loved ones!! πŸ’š
