How much growth from new roses? (and my Trellis)
I planted 2 New Dawn climbing rose plants, the cheap kind from Home Depot
(5.99 each, I think there is worse out there) I built a nice trellis and put it up on the side of my shed and planted the roses in front. They are growing, it looks like about 2-3" have come out in a few spots. It's been 2 weeks since I planted them, is this a normal rate of growth to expect? about 1-1.5" a week or is it more random than that? The info I read on New Dawn says they will get to be 8-10 feet so I am wondering if I can expect that in a season...honestly I have no idea what to expect!! This is my first attempt at roses and I am new to gardening in general! Any info will be helpful - I just can't seem to find the answers I want through google. Wanna see the trellis I built? As you can see in the picture I have shade there part of the day. http://image.inkfrog.com/pix/nanner2000/Trellis.jpg the picture was right after i built it but before i centered it and attached it. each plant is centered in front of the 2 ladder-type sections. It's 8' x 6' I think I will put something decorative in the top middle section thanks all! |
