Thank you. I learned something new today. I knew about cutting at the 5 leafs but didn't know about watching for which direction it was facing. Great tip. Just in time. Dead heading my roses is on my to do list for this week. Love watching your videos. Your a great speaker and speak clear and at a nice speed that I can listen to it all without having to keep replaying it. Thanks again.

I have grown roses for years and when I first started the instructions in all the books about how to cut back and the angles were so confusing....you gave the best and easiest to understand instructions that I have heard...it's so simple and so many people make the explanation for too complicated....this is super for new Rosarians to follow

Laura, you're like a flower fairy to me ❤ your garden is so beautiful

I LOVE those purple flowers next to the roses. Such an appealing look together. 💜🌹

Can you believe it? Someone stole my purple flower hanging basket I had just put out next to my red roses. I just bought them and thought "wow, the purple goes great next to the red." Eye-catcher for sure. Caught the eye of a thief! :D

This was so helpful. There are two established roses at my new home. I had to cut back one of them in the spring. I couldn’t stand by and look at it all roped up and over grown! It’s doing great. The other one bloomed beautifully. I wasn’t sure what to do. Now I know exactly what to do! Thank you!! 😊

I absolutely love the wrought iron and stone fence behind you in the beginning of this video. I would love to add a feature like this in my garden. It has so much character.

Perfect timing! I have several new roses bushes that I need to dead head! Thanks!-Cara

Laura, that was amazing, thank you! Common sense and I really have these amazing moments of AHA! when someone, such as yourself, comes along and explains something so well that I can't help but to make sense of the obvious 😅. I mean, cut the stem back at a set of 5 leaves (knew that, and doing that) that are growing outward instead of into the center of the plant. 🤔😊🤭 ....and there it is... Aha! Don't hesitate to make videos that you think everyone already knows. Being open to learn different ways to do something you could do in your sleep is just as important as learning something new.

I used to love deadheading roses in the summer. Not just because of how easy it is, the satisfaction of a clean rose bush look with fresh blooms, but the fragrance that would surround me while going from rose to rose! With the warm air... it was one of my favorite gardening chores! Except once, when I disturbed a wasp's nest and got stung, a LOT! but yeah... this video brought all of that back 🥰 beautiful to see your varieties blooming in this single video, thank you 💞

Never been this early before. Have a nice day everyone

Years ago I had 12 rose bushes, and you explained dead heading so clearly, should've known it then. 🌹🐝🇿🇦

I remember that your first rose deadhead video is what got me into gardening and lead me to pursuing a career in landscaping. Thank you Laura for being an inspiration 💚

Such a pleasure to learn from you. I remember my Grandmother telling me when I was a child, you cut roses on an angle for flower arrangements so they can more easily take up water. It was one of those moments. Sweet.

I love watching your garden and your family grow. I have the prettiest flowers and vegetables this year due to all your inspiration and guidance. I find myself searching for the same varieties of plants that you have used . It makes a difference when you know what they will look like from watching your videos. I am enjoying the best gardening year of my life thanks to you and your sweet family.💞

Thank you I’ve just run out and re pruned mine to 5 leaves! 😁

This is so informative and now I'm not concerned about cutting back the really long canes to help reshape the plants. Thank you so much and I am so glad you enjoyed your holiday weekend with your family. 🙂

Love that you did this video again, one of my very first garden answer videos 7 years ago was trimming basil and dead heading roses 🌹 love you’re videos so much, I’ve been gardening ever since. I work at a greenhouse now and I feel like it’s all thanks to your inspiration keeping me going ♥️

We would love to see your parents garden again we missed last season we don’t want to miss it again this year. Please Laura take us with you touring your parents garden ♥️♥️ I bet all of us wants to see their gardens and please don’t forget about to continue with videos in Spanish please

Thank you so much for this tutorial!! I am always afraid to deadhead my roses. Mine are the continuous flowering type bushes and they are so pretty, I don't want to ruin them. I will feel so much more confident now, all because of you! You and Aaron are so inspiring to me. I set up a whole irrigation system this year following the steps in your videos and my garden has never looked so good. Even my husband mentioned how good the yard is looking!! Thank you for being you and being such an inspiration to us.

Your timing is perfect. I just purchased a few rose bushes and looked at them wondering “ now what do I do”.

Good Morning! 🌞🌹 My Grandmothers & Mom taught me how deadhead roses & fertilize! Then caring for my Mom's roses was one of my tasks growing up! 😊🌹❤️💚🌿

Just ordered my shrub rake and kangaroo bag. Ready to deadhead when they arrive on Friday! I have been snapping the spent blooms off here and there, but now need to do the whole stem where the clusters are done blooming. 🌹

Glad that you had an amazing time with family over the holiday weekend 💞 I got my GA fix by watching your snow apocalypse videos 🤪 I know, right? During the summer? 😅

I helped my mom with her 60+ roses of different varieties for years…we used to put a drop of Elmer’s glue on the cut stem to prevent disease…my favorite rose was Double Delight! This year I planted At Last…gorgeous peach color!

This was so helpful! I learned some new things. I just added 3 new rose bushes to my garden this year, so thank you for this video!

This was the perfect video at the perfect time! I recently started working at a Nursery/Garden center and one of my tasks is to dead head the roses for sale. I am thrilled to say I must have been paying attention in a previous video of yours because I see I am doing it correctly. Thank you Laura!! 🌹

A pleasure, as always! Those pink roses with the delphiniums are stunning!!

So helpful! My mother in laws roses need some love and this is the info I needed!🌺

Thanks so much for this info! I couldn't understand why all of my roses are growing into themselves! Now I know!

Oh well done Laura, I was muttering that you were doing such a good job at deadheading the roses in the previous video. Always useful to recap in detail especially for people new to your channel or growing roses.

Laura you are the best at teaching in a way where I actually retain the information! I just went outside in the rain and deadheaded my roses and am so excited that I've finally learned how to properly deadhead roses after all these years! 🥀

I have been a horticulturist for almost 20 years and 10 of those years worked for a specialist rose grower. I watched one of your rose pruning videos a couple of months ago and had never heard of 5 leaf pruning! I knew about outward facing buds and angling the cut etc, but I decided to try it on my own roses and also my clients roses. What a difference! The flowering is so much more profuse. I was always taught to cut a lot of the stem off (50%) but now I prune just below the hip (to a 5 leaf) and difference is amazing!

Good Wednesday morning, Laura! What a FANTASTIC spot to start your video in! It is wonderful to see that gate behind you! It makes a beautiful backdrop!! What beautiful, soft piano music you picked, Ken! Was it Laura playing? In my mind, I see Laura sitting at her Steinway gently and gracefully tickling the ivory.👩🎹🎹🎹🎹 Oh glorious sakes, trimming up your peachy roses in front of the Hollyhocks, enables more view of those amazing hollyhocks!!!🤩🤩🤩🤩😍🤗 Yaaaaaay, I am soooo happy to hear that you did give yourselves a break over the holiday weekend, and spent time with family!🤗🥰 I find family time restores ones' soul.🤗 👋🐈Hi Russell! I saw you spraying/marking your territory, the salvia. Keeping the neighborhood cats alerted, huh? This video was EXTREMELY HELPFUL to me; I learned that I was not deadheading my roses off at the proper spot. Hence, why I am not getting new growth. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Laura for that particular tidbit of advice. I also learned that I can lightly prune my bushes in the Summer. I have 2 gorgeous David Austin Scentimental Rose bushes. The roses are glorious and no 2 are the same. Have a Blessed and Beautiful day everyone! Kimberley F in Avondale, AZ (Zone 9b) 🌞🌵💞

Very helpful! I didn’t know about the leaf number thing so I’ve just been making random cuts.

Good morning, Laura, from Windermere Florida zone 9b USA 🇺🇸 Excellent advice for beginners and great reminders for seasoned Gardeners 👍👩‍🌾👍 Happy Gardening Everyone 🌹🥀🌹

This was so helpful! It just came about a week late for me. I went in blind on pruning one of my roses and apparently did everything wrong 😂. Y’all keep your fingers crossed that I didn’t kill it. I’m definitely following these tips for the other roses in the yard though 😉

The stock market has been incredibly volatile recently. The global economy has become increasingly unstable.

Your rose tips this season have been great 👍 - thank you! I purchased a little cottage over the winter that has 12+ very old rose bushes (50+yrs old) which I didn’t really know how to care for. Your advice has helped tremendously as I get to know this new (old) garden.

Great information Laura! Every video of yours has given me the confidence to do garden chores the correct way. Now my family defers to me with all kinds of garden questions!!

Thank you! Just bought a 1930s home this past year and it has about 9 beautiful mature rose bushes. This answered a lot of questions for me!!

Kudos to Ken for the pretty piano music on this video. 💜💜

Thanks for the deadheading lesson. I knew about the 5 leaf cut but never thought about the direction of the leaf growth. 🌹🌹✂️

Thanks for this video! I bought my first rose bush this year and have had trouble finding a good video on deadheading. You all are the best and hope you had a great 4th of July weekend!

Oh, how I love roses. Alas, here in the South they are very high maintenance. Our high humidity really affects them - lots of fungal diseases (black spot) and the japanese beetles will desimate them overnight. So much work, but oh they are so lovely and fragrant. Every year I say nope ... every year I buy another (or two, or three) ... but that's what we gardeners do - we keep trying !!

This subject brought me to you and your channel Laura. I Googled how to deadhead roses some years ago and up popped Garden Answer. Hooked ever since x

Lovely roses 😊🌹 My collection of almost 60 rosebushes- David Austin, Kordes, Tantau etc were decimated by rodants this year 😢

Although I don’t have roses, I learned a lot from this one. Thanks Laura

Again with the piano!!! Love it!!! I’m just going to assume it’s Laura playing 😊 I was hoping Aaron would grab my comment (asking if it was Laura playing on the garden tour video) for the recap and say if it was Laura playing or not, but I’m going with yes, it is!

I don't plant roses because of thorns and their tendency towards diseases, but I just learned a few things. So, thanks for that.

I am currently the caretaker of a neighbors garden, after she passed at the end of May. Part of this info I knew, but didn't realize about the directional nature until this video. I've been watching your videos for a long time, so no surprise I learned something from you. :) As we deal in Ohio, with the Canada smoke, I'll be deadheading her roses. Thanks for all the help over the years, and all the entertainment (because I don't grow nearly as much as you guys, and it's still entertaining.)

How brave you are, deadheading without gloves on😊

Very clear and helpful summary of rose deadheading. Thank you for the beautiful scenery too!

I don’t know why, but deadheading is one of my favorite gardening chores.

I've got 60 rose bushes and I walk through them every day and dead head a long the way. Mine are young and not near as nice as yours but I enjoy watching them grow.

Wow, I had not researched Roses yet. This was extremely informative. Thank you.

Thank you for this! These days I prefer instructional videos in your gardens close to your home. They’re more interesting and inspiration is everywhere. I see that you’re at last roses are huge. Mine have remained very short over the past two seasons and the blooms last for only a day or two. I plan to move them around the next week and see if that helps. I think they don’t like the current location. Thank you again. Oh and loved this format. 😊

I learned a lot. Thanks Laura

Yes the five leaves are what everyone says and what is in books but...... with Knockout roses, I have noticed they start to send out new growth, growth that is going to make more flowers, much higher up on the stem. IF you dead head one of them, going back to 5 leaves always means you are cutting off growth that has already started. If you don't dead head them that new growth WILL be the next flush of flowers. I often wonder how we get these rules in gardening, when you can see right on your own plants, the rules are not always true.

Hey Laura, love your channel! I stumbled upon your channel a few months ago when looking at what hydrangea to plant and was hooked on your daily posts! I have found gardening to be enjoyable (never was much of an outdoorsy kid) and having an educational source like your channel has been such a blessing. My question is do the same pruning tips apply to climbing roses? Or should I be doing something different for them. Our local greenhouses have already closed for the season here🤯 MD/PA line (zone 6bish)
