hi y’all and welcome to the beautiful and stunning hairloom roses so we have been learning about everything from propagation and cutting to processing and getting ready for shipment and we have also been wanding the 11,000 roses planted in this mother plant field and it truly is unlike anything you’ve seen in your life I’m going to put the Drone up uh so you can get some great overhead footage of the space I’ve not had the Drone up yet and I really want to see it myself because I can’t get the camera quite high enough but you can see behind me all of the Roses that exist here and these are the oldest roses and I think what’s blown me away about this experience I’ve been growing roses for a while now is that I’ve never had a rose in my garden long enough to see its full potential and coming here and seeing the massive size of blooms the habits these plants can take has been really like life-changing for me so based on this experience I know I’m going to be growing more roses in my garden and seeing them in person has allowed me to pick out some really nice varieties that I’m adding to my list I’m going to walk around and just walk you through the field because I think it’s very beautiful to see but I also want to show you some of the varieties that I ordered and that are in my garden now so you can see them at full size and then we’ll check out a few varieties that have really caught my eye and that I’m going to be adding to my list going forward so there are a lot of David Altin areas in this part of the cutting field and this one right here that is so huge is James gway so if you’ve been following along you know I planted 11 of these and I actually said that after I’ve seen these in person and notice how wide they get that I may have not have needed 11 but this hedge is just going to be stunning so these are of course a climbing rose that’s been allowed to grow upright they keep them trimmed so they can cut on them to propagate future plants but look at these full size roses here really gorgeous really healthy looking foliage and it’s just stunning to see these in person if you’re watching you know I left my last Garden in August and moved to the new property and so all of my roses were left behind so I had some that were a few years old but none that were quite as established as these in this Garden so Heirloom Roses offers over 900 varieties of roses there are some roses in this field that they no longer offer that they’re growing on there’s some they’re keeping here just to maintain the history of those rows and the genetics and let’s take a look at some more of them this is Lady of shalot by David Austin it is one I’ve grown at the last house and it got really large for me there um but I’ve never seen it as like a full siiz shrub rose where I placed it at the last house I had misplaced it cuz I kind of underestimated its performance because it grows pretty quickly in my experience in Southwest Ohio but I love these blooms and I just want to raise the camera here so you can see as far as the eye can see all of the Roses here now some of the things we’ve done this week it’s been really interesting I learned best practices for propagating roses uh I learned that they also cut off these plants but they a lot of their roses that you will receive are in their second year so they propagate them and it may be a year or two before they’re sold because they want the quality to be high enough to ship them to you and because they allow them to get so old they can propagate off their existing roses that they have potted that they’re going to be selling to Consumers when you receive a rose from Heirloom Roses it is completely defoliated and that allows the plant to transition better in shipping and of course once it gets in your garden it will Spring right back to life and be beautiful for you in just a matter of weeks something else we talked about this week was Rose disease and particularly Rose viruses which I found the most interesting because a lot of us know about um rose diseases such as black spot or powdery mildew or some of those other fungal or bacterial diseases but Rose viruses are also apparently pretty common so heirlooms has a really stringent process where they test everything if they’re getting a new variety in they keep it across the street they don’t even allow it into the nursing facility until it’s passed all of the tests and it comes back clean it’s a very interesting that we showed a test report card for lots of different varieties and sometimes they get some that are not good and they dispose of them and they’ll try and order them from somewhere else to test and they keep doing that process until they get a clean plant here that they can grow on for their customers this area over here is some of their oldest roses and as I Pan the camera around you’ll see way back there they have a lot of newer plantings that are much smaller so we’re going to transition to that side of the Garden it is quite a walk I don’t how many acres this is but it’ll wear you out walking all the way back and up and down every aisle uh so we’ll walk over there in a bit but I want to stop and just show you some of the varieties that just kind of sto me in my tracks just looking at them uh ones I had really never considered just from looking at the website so one I really want to point out to you who may have space constraints is Queen of Sweden I have never seen this Rose in person so it is very skinny and upright and I think it would be an excellent cutting Rose I mean look how straight these stems are so a lot of David Austin varieties have like an arching Habit to them but it just produces a proliferation of blooms too and you can see how gorgeous these are on the plant and how sturdy the stems are and like this variety is called electron which really catches the eye and just comparison to my hand here this Bloom is massive I’m going to pull it off like look at the size of this it’s as big as my face and I just want to stop and show you some that are just really eye-catching to me they’re different and it has really different stunning blooms they’re tend to lean a little more red than I prefer in my garden but they’re a great option and it has really strikingly dark black foliage like I said you could literally wander this field for hours and potentially even days just smelling the Roses some of them are lightly fragrant some of them don’t have a whole lot of fragrance at all and some of them will knock your socks off and I personally tend to lean to roses that have a lot more petals and that’s because I have a lot of other great pollinating plants in my garden but if you like roses that are good for pollinators they also offer a great variety of low petal versions that smell great and you can find those on their webside this is a variety called Francis Mand and I think it’s really stunning to you can see these beautiful pinkish blooms here but then as it ages out these are also just massive massive blooms have some very floriferous varieties like mother of pearl look at these colors and yellows that just shine in the sunset here this is Doris Day I’ve heard of this variety before really stunning as someone who likes yellow rose seems to have a pretty nice upright habit not very floppy and beautiful crisp clean lemony yellow all right here’s a variety that has been on my list when I was selecting last year and I kind of selected a darker purple but I’m really loving this one it’s called Poseidon and it’s a very light purple and really roughly petals isn’t that gorgeous so one thing I’ve noticed we spent the past two days out here in very bright sun and I wanted to come back and shoot some footage towards the end of the day because roses and all plants take on much richer tones as the sun setting in the golden hour and this one is called jump for joy and it had not CAU my eye I don’t believe earlier the past two days but walking by it at Sunset all of these roses are the color that I love so much and it smells really incredible I’ve heard this variety mentioned as well before it’s Gloria steum really beautiful white to Pink let’s look at the creamy center or the pink Center of these roses as they’re coming out and then they transition to a white a lot of white uh roses do that but really stunning here in a hch earlier today we also went over some of the top 20 roses that Heirloom Roses sells and the number one is Eden climber which is a beautiful rose but I’m going to show you number two which is paruma Earth Angel and because they sell so many of these roses there’s a lot of them out here in the stock field and they have really beautiful roses right here these are considered quarter blooms which I learned about which means they’re kind of looped here in the middle so Earth Angel is a Flora Bunda which something I learned while I was here is that that simply means that there are a lot of roses on one cane but if you take the center Bloom which for instance here we have a bloom with lots of roses on it if this Center Bud had been taken it would have made all the other surrounding roses bloom at the same time some of the Roses even as they just blow out and cascad petals everywhere like this variety let me see what it is here in case anyone is interested apricot candy is what it looks like you can see that it is just gorgeous here in the sunset I love this view you can see there’s The Valleys in this field which is really beautiful for just the landscape and the scenery here and the views I’ve met a lot of other great content creators while I’m I’m here including Marv whose channel is planted in the garden he’s a Canadian content creator who is growing on a small scale in Canada so if you’re interested in vegetable garden producing food using roses in an edible form you can check him out on YouTube and Instagram and then we have Angela whose channel is growing in the garden
