What can I do to get my roses back?

I am in Spring where I live and about a month ago cut my roses back which were looking spindly. I was careful to cut each stem a little above the eyes, etc., but for two of my bushes, the roses have not come back. Plenty of nice new green leaves, but no buds whatsoever. One of the others is covered with roses. Any ideas to get these other bushes flowering again??

Either take a blender, or no blender, take a banana and dig hole near plant. Mash banana into hole!





Yep your plant will go monkey with flowers if you feed it a couple bananas(skins too or just skins)!





Also take a packet of plain gelatine(or couple of packets) and sprinkle around plant.





Water bananas and gelatine so it sinks in and you'll have roses a blooming!





Those two ingredients provide good nutrients and especially excellent source of environmentally friendly nitrogen(which is what you need for flowers formations).





WITHOUT possibility of 'burning' your plants!





But don't tell too many people as it makes the miracle gro people angry AND I don't want them pestering me again(LOL).





Relatively inexpensive AND impossible to mess it up.





I prefer blending the bananas with water, sprinkle gelatine powder around plant, and pour banana mash onto gelatine, and troweling the mess into the ground an inch or three. Cover back with your mulch(good to mulch period) and water well to allow rose roots to feed AND send me a pix of your blooming roses(couple weeks max).





You'll never throw bananas away again!
Reply:Are these climbing roses? if so it will take longer possibly later in the season or even next year before you get buds on them. If they are not climbers then you just need to give them a bit more time. You might want to consider some rose food. The suggestion of bananas is correct, also coffee grounds and egg shells are good to mix in with the soil.


There is also use bloom buster (found at your local garden centers) that helps push a plant to bloom quicker and with more blooms.

These are your ROSES we're talking about here!
Reply:Put banana peel or usded coffee grinds right by the base of the root.
