rambling roses

Posted by fatalice (My Page) on

Hello
My name is Alice I live in Northern France and I am new to this forum. I have just ordered some rambling roses from Peter Beals in England. They are Kifsgate, Rambling Rector, Wedding Day and Kew Rambler. I don't know much about roses and I hoped I could train them against walls ( about two metres high) and then run along the top to give me some privacy from the neighbours. But I now find they grow VERY high. Can they be pruned to control the height?
Any advice will be very welcome.
Thanks
Alice

RE: rambling roses

bonjour,

vous pouvez aller sur le site www.helpmefind.com et suivre le lien "rose" pour avoir des idees sur ces roses.
le meilleur conseil est de vous dire de prévoir beaucoup de place, ces rosiers sont tous des monstres notemment kifsgate et kew ramber: quand ils partirons vous aurez du mal à les contenir, autant leur donner toute la place possible pour ne pas avoir à les contenir (les tailler est un gros boulot et en plus ils piquent)...de merveilleux rosiers cependant
