Cotswolds Garden - FAQs
Frequently asked gardening related questions
Growing roses in a very windy garden can be challenging, as their often delicate petals and long stems are prone to wind damage and desiccation. If your garden is windy, choose more compact, shrubby, or groundcover rose varieties, which are less susceptible. Planting them in a sheltered border or against a protective wall or dense hedge will greatly improve their performance. Ensure climbing roses are very securely tied to robust supports to prevent them from being ripped off by gusts. Regular watering is also critical to combat increased moisture loss.
