Prune and Train Climbing Roses

The way you train and prune your climbing roses can make a huge difference in increasing blooms in your garden. The wonderful thing about climbers and ramblers is that they throw very long stems that can be trained up or across a structure (wall, fence, trellis, archway). The main trick is to "think horizontal" in the way you secure those rose canes. In this video, I'll show you a couple of roses: 'Super Dorothy' and 'Altissimo', each with it's own growing habit. You may note that one of these roses is grown in a container - the other in the ground, but it really doesn't change the method in any way.
