Gardening Questions roses

Googie, the internet is an excellent resource for rose growers. My recommendation would be to start with the BBC's pages:
www.bbc.co.uk/gardening/plants/plantprofile_roses.shtml
www.gardenersworld.com
Then Google 'growing roses'
If I were you I would spend the money on rose plants and/or growing materials.
Do tell us more about your plans for your rose garden, where it will be, which roses you choose etc. We enjoy following each-other's progress.

Thanks xela. At the moment i have been going off names of the family. Just bought William in memory of my Dad. Also mothers day for my mum. I have a little paved area at the top of my garden which i am going to put pots and a trellis which i will grow a nice climber over. (Any idea of a good climber? ) When It done i will show a picture, just hope roses are easy to grow. Any way here goes

I'd recommend 'The Rose Expert' by Dr Hessayon, available at any bookshop and W H Smiths. Has all the basics including pruning and pest info plus details of some of the commonly available varieties

I'd go with Andrewr - Hessayon has an incredible amount of pretty practical advice in his books and they are always reasonably priced. Having said that, there is a thought around at the moment that just cutting them all off evenly is as good as any detailed pruning regime. I wouldn't know.

I agree, Hessayon's book 'The Rose Expert'is good; all his books are reasonably priced, well illustrated and full of clear information. However, it isn't long before a book becomes outdated whereas current thinking is constantly being updated on the internet and I would rather have a rose in my garden than a book on my shelf.
There are some lovely climbers Googie. Are you aware of rambling roses and the difference between them and climbing roses?
