Where is the best place to plant a climbing rose?

Climbing roses will grow and bloom best in a location with full sun, although they will tolerate light shade. A location with eastern exposure is best to protect the leaves from hot afternoon sun. Make sure the mature size and height of the plant is suitable for the location.

How much sun do Climbing roses need?

While they tolerate some shade, they will bloom more and grow denser and fuller when they receive at least 4-6 hours of direct sun each day. Choose a location that will accommodate the climber’s growth habit. Climbers can grow from 6-12 feet tall (some even taller) and spread almost as wide.

Can Roses get too much sun?

Roses thrive on direct sunlight. For best results, a minimum of four hours of direct sunlight is recommended. However, even when planted against a north wall (meaning no direct sunlight) roses can still perform well.

Do Roses prefer morning or afternoon sun?

The plants need at least six hours of sun a day. We have some partly shaded areas that get early-morning and late-afternoon sun. Even though they’re not getting six continuous hours of sun, they do okay. If you have high, bright shade, like that under a limbed-up tree, roses can do all right, but direct sun is best.

What happens if you don’t prune roses?

Routine pruning of climbing roses
  1. First remove dead, diseased or dying branches.
  2. Then tie in any new shoots needed to fill supports.
  3. Prune any flowered side shoots back by two thirds of their length.
  4. If the plant is heavily congested, cut out any really old branches from the base to promote new growth.
