As April comes to a close, your roses are waking up and preparing for their most important growth phase of the year. This is the moment that determines how beautiful, full, and long-lasting your blooms will be throughout summer.

Whether you’re growing roses in your garden or gifting a personalised rose from Rose Names, these simple steps will help ensure strong, healthy growth and spectacular flowers.


🌱 1. Feed Your Roses Now for Bigger Blooms

April is the start of the active growing season, and feeding your roses now is one of the most important jobs.

  • Use a balanced rose fertiliser
  • Apply when new leaves appear
  • Consider slow-release feed for long-lasting nutrients

Feeding at this stage helps produce strong stems and abundant flowers later in the season. Experts highlight April as the key time to fertilise for maximum blooms.

👉 Tip: Add a second feed after the first bloom to encourage repeat flowering.


💧 2. Water Deeply (But Not Too Often)

Roses don’t like shallow watering — they prefer a deep soak.

  • Water at the base (not over leaves)
  • Aim for 1–2 inches per week
  • Morning watering is best to prevent disease

Consistent watering now builds strong roots that will support flowers all summer.


🌿 3. Mulch for Moisture & Health

https://images.openai.com/static-rsc-4/N8hu-Qq8M8V7Ex-Dba_mlj56RDzYtWua7gu_f17NL0LSe9C163BVw1xzlKNNYTFJ3dK0PqFAesjVJMVq_aaPFwL5zXn9EGjdwfNr_lYXPelAUIQiDj9VBFIxxcRwXjFC4GZnqeDoKcW_asHzrm2zkxeQx2d15WZ0-NJ1X_IjsMGgky-XQw9XW1XcB57iIeJR?purpose=fullsizehttps://images.openai.com/static-rsc-4/eopmEahjyX2AsWZCZEhIWusjV6sxDzUsK04uWAIdZjao3DqctlIUQMSinlQaSzr2t35p2sgVUbUHzU9rH8Mc6_9XVC6qQnNBQJCz0COMY7Sksm8Nh7nGPWShqyGEO8tHXwhk8BSDASgZXc1VJ1uyEJE3JNx7llhlR3pa_tJGcuJM1qebswGkg-7ii87It6g1?purpose=fullsizehttps://images.openai.com/static-rsc-4/zxjMfjlnTKaRnyMQBSVhcavzHVL7GWrMuaMRAL8zrzD_VkBuiDeiPOT1vQBFxvLJOPUIDSVS9Pln3HjFioEaWeizzPeZ3AMcVEhaJCpVdq4zM_q2-ZKgtHeIqmeH9gBHFEa3RycxouTMGmIUXmsfZj4yS-J-0IuEleI8UyhS-otyYTnydDMBJYl498r7F5rD?purpose=fullsize
 
 

Adding mulch is one of the easiest ways to improve your roses instantly.

  • Use compost, bark, or well-rotted manure
  • Apply around (not touching) the base
  • Helps retain moisture and suppress weeds

Mulching also improves soil structure and feeds your roses naturally over time.


✂️ 4. Light Pruning & Tidy Up

By late April, major pruning should already be done, but you can still tidy:

  • Remove dead or damaged stems
  • Cut back weak growth
  • Shape the plant lightly

Most roses are pruned in late winter to early spring (Feb–March) before full growth begins.

👉 In April, think of this as a final tidy, not a heavy cut.


🐛 5. Watch for Pests Early

Spring brings new growth… and pests.

  • Check for aphids on new shoots
  • Look for black spot or mildew
  • Rinse pests off or use gentle treatments

Catching problems early keeps your roses strong and flowering.


🌸 6. Planting Roses in Late Spring

 
 
 

While bare-root season is ending, you can still plant potted roses now.

  • Improve soil with compost before planting
  • Ensure good drainage
  • Water well after planting

Container-grown roses can be planted most of the year if conditions are right.


🎁 Why Roses Make the Perfect Gift Right Now

Late April is also the perfect time to gift a rose — just as the plant is entering its growth phase.

At Rose Names, you can:

  • 🌹 Name a real living rose
  • 🎁 Send a fully gift-wrapped plant
  • 📜 Include a personalised certificate
  • 🇬🇧 Deliver anywhere in the UK

It’s a meaningful, long-lasting alternative to cut flowers — perfect for birthdays, remembrance, anniversaries, or “just because.”


🌼 Final Thoughts

A little effort now in April will reward you with:

  • Bigger blooms
  • Healthier plants
  • Longer flowering season

Think of April as the foundation month for your roses — get it right, and your garden (or gift) will thrive all summer long.

As the leaves turn gold and the air grows crisp, autumn brings with it a unique kind of beauty — rich colours, gentle light, and a sense of reflection. It is also the perfect season to celebrate special occasions with a truly meaningful gift: naming a rose after someone you love.

At Rose Names, we help you create an everlasting tribute or celebration by registering a rose name and sending a luxury gift package to mark the occasion. Autumn is a wonderful time to give this thoughtful present, whether for a birthday, anniversary, memorial or “just because.”

🌹 Looking After Your Roses in June

  • Watering

Water deeply at the base of the plant, especially during dry spells.

Avoid watering the leaves or watering in the evening to reduce the risk of disease.

  • Mulching

Apply a layer of organic mulch (e.g. well-rotted manure or compost) around the base.

Helps retain moisture, suppress weeds, and improve soil fertility.

Winter might not seem like the ideal time to think about gardening, but it’s actually a great season to plant roses. Many people believe roses should only be planted in warmer months, yet winter and early spring are perfect, as long as the soil isn’t frozen. Take advantage of this season to prepare for a blooming garden.

Over the years, we’ve shared countless tips with our customers about achieving the best results with roses. While soil conditions are essential, where you plant your rose is just as crucial. If you notice your rose bush isn’t thriving in its first year, don’t worry. A gentle relocation can work wonders—you’ll be amazed at the difference a small move can make.

Essential Rose Care: Feeding, Mulching, Watering, and More

Feeding Your Roses for Optimal Growth

To achieve stunning blooms, roses need regular feeding. As the old saying goes, "a well-fed rose is a healthy rose." Rose fertilizers are essential, especially for different soil types:

  • Clay soil: Apply rose fertilizer twice a year, in March after pruning and again after the first flush of flowers, typically in late June or July.
  • Sandy or chalky soil: These require monthly feeding from March through July. A small handful of fertilizer is sufficient.
  • Loam soil: Feeding three to four times from March to July will yield the best results.

Mulching for Moisture Retention

Mulching is crucial for retaining moisture and improving soil health. Use garden compost, leaf mould, or well-rotted manure. Avoid using bark chippings as they are less beneficial for roses.

Watering Tips for Thriving Roses

Roses thrive best in moist, well-drained soil. If your garden soil is dry, water the roses deeply and occasionally. Avoid frequent, shallow watering. Watering in the morning or keeping the leaves dry can help reduce the risk of disease.

Pest and Disease Management

Maintaining healthy roses involves good husbandry. Proper feeding and watering can prevent many issues. However, if you encounter problems:

  • Diseases: Treat with a proprietary fungicide.
  • Pests (like aphids): Try removing them manually or use an insecticide such as derris.

Training and Pruning Climbing and Rambling Roses

For climbing roses on walls or fences, train them to grow horizontally for a fuller display of blooms. The ideal time for this training is in September or October. Use wires attached to the wall/fence and secure the stems with string or raffia. Prune in September/October to encourage strong vertical growth and a well-shaped plant.

It seems like the weather has been quite uncooperative for gardening this summer, with all the rain making it challenging to tend to your garden. However, it's great to hear that your roses are thriving despite the conditions, thanks to your diligent deadheading, feeding, and spraying.

Even though the rain might be reducing the need for watering, remember that your roses will still benefit from regular feeding. Using a tomato fertilizer can provide the nutrients they need to continue blooming beautifully. Additionally, a good rose clear spray will help protect them from pests like green and whitefly, ensuring they stay healthy.

We have a stunning selection of roses in stock, with a variety of beautiful colours including Yellow, Tutti Fruiti, Scented Clotted Cream, and Raspberry Crush. All of our roses are scented, adding a delightful fragrance to your garden. If you keep up with the deadheading, your roses should continue to bloom until October, depending on the weather and your location in the UK.

Name a Rose after the Happy Couple....

 

That sounds like a lovely and thoughtful gift idea! Giving a rose bush named after the mother of the bride and groom is not only unique but also symbolic. Roses are often associated with love, beauty, and romance, making them a perfect gift for a wedding.

The idea of having a rose bush that the couple can plant in their garden or on their patio adds an extra touch of sentimentality. Every time they see the rose blooming, it will serve as a reminder of their special day and the love and support of their parents.

Additionally, the option to name more roses for future anniversaries or children provides an opportunity to continue building on this living memory, making it a gift that keeps on giving for years to come.

With a very busy Christmas over here at Rose Names, and our new roses for 2023 arriving it has been a couple of busy months.  the weather has not been kind and after weeks and weeks of rain we now have a very cold spell.   Valentines is just around the corner and we have added a lovely bottle of rich ruby red wine with the most fabulous patio rose which has blooms of red soft velvet petals, it is an ideal gift to give to a loved one at this special time of year. go on... spoil a loved one you still have time!

There is still lots to do in the garden, it you have not cutback your roses you still have time, your plant will be much bushier when it puts on growth in the spring and summer, all roses do need to be cut back to improve the plant and stop the rose bush from getting too leggy, and once the frost has finally gone you can add some blood fish and bone around the base of your rose bush.

If you have been keeping warm this winter with a real log fire you can add the ash around the rose bush too, it is full of potassium which roses need to grow heathy, if there are any leaves laying around the base of your bush it is best to remove these to ensure your rose will be free of any diseases from any bugs and other harmful pests.

We are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of 

 

Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II

 

She always showed such grace and dignity whilst

devoting her life to her service.

 

She will forever be our Queen.

 

The Royal family are in our heartfelt thoughts at this 

very sad time.

With the summer in full swing, now is a great time to sit back and enjoy your roses.  However before you sit back there are still a few jobs to do! take off any yellowing leaves, make sure the roses are watered, it is much better to keep them moist rather than water when they are too dry.   Once a week feed with a fertilizer, we will look into the different ones latter in the blog, also add the feed after you have watered them.  Make sure you dead head, this will ensure your roses will look their best all summer long, there will be times when you will not have any flowers on the rose bush, usually floribunda roses flower twice a year, but sometimes they will flower all year long provided you invest in a little care and attention.

We still do have many colour's available, please see some of our roses in this beautiful bouquet above.

June has seen our garden nursery bursting with colour, the weather has been mixed, but the roses continue to bloom.  We have got some lovely colours available this year which includes a Burgundy/Fuchsia Pink

Rose Care Tips for the Summer

 

Feeding your Roses

Feed your roses with either a granular fertilizer or Liquid fertilizer. If using liquid fertilizer regular feeding every 2-3 weeks until late summer, will give you beautiful blooms throughout the growing season.

If conditions are dry, water your roses before feeding them and then keep them well hydrated afterwards, this helps the plants absorb nutrients better, and prevent fertilizer burn on roots and leaves.

 

Wedding Season

Well, the wedding season is really in full swing! although numbers are restricted, you can still send the happy couple a beautiful rose to remember their special day.

Print their photo onto the plant label, a perfect gift to give.

Spring News

 

Spring has been a very wet one, but we have continued to grow as a company taking on more staff, we have introduced new gift wrapping and our logo has changed together with our certificate and label layout.

All of our roses are unique and very personal to you. Each one is individually gift wrapped and the certificate and label are also personal to you.

We are the only company to print your image/photo onto the plant label using our special in house printers that print onto our waterproof and frost proof labels.

Rose Names March Blog

MARCH 2020 Welcome to our Blog. Its official February was the wettest on record. If you have heavy clay soil, you will need to break up some of the soil and introduce some manure or compost, or leave it to the worms… But it’s always a good idea to feed your roses now, with a good Rose Feed and again in the summer. We still have all our colours in stock, and with Mother’s Day around the corner we have got a Special Edition Coral Patio Rose bush, which will be happy in a pot or the garden, it will produce 100’s of small flowers throughout the summer.

What should we be doing with our roses?

CUT BACK

If you haven’t done so already, now is the time to cut back your roses, don’t worry you can’t really cut them back too hard.
