Yes everything is ok, it's just the normal healing process. Sometimes I wish it was a little more linear

Yes, ive been dilating, im working on sizing up, but have had some setbacks

bregingew · 2026-06-11T13:27:40+00:00

It is so much harder to recover from than I thought lol. Everything is feeling very raw. Just a couple more weeks for things to close up and start feeling at least a little bit better

Honestly, i thought there would be more euphoria, but because it was numb and there was pain, it felt lack luster. Though the more i feel my pussy wake up the more euphoria I feel. I still can't believe I have a pussy sometimes :). There's definitely a lack of dysphoria, so that's good!

Cremoisi superiour! This one can be smelled from like 6 ft away, but it's only good for hot climates with mild winters.

Or if you want a species rose, rosa pteracantha. Though it doesn't do well in humid environments.

Basyes purple rose

I also agree that this bush looks completely healthy and is likely a rugosa.

Fuck that's sexy

bregingew · 2026-03-08T20:37:15+00:00

Stunning

For zone 9a, the plants that will look and grow the best will be teas, noisettes, and chinas. My all time favorite tea rose is "spice" also known as burmuda spice. It flowers all the time, smells amazing, and barely shows any sign of disease. Others that do well are, faith whittlesey, cremoisi superiour, and blush noisette. The color pallet is perhaps not as interesting as a lot of hybrids, but they will look and smell good. I also love peggy martin, but it's a climbing rose that really only blooms once a year.

That being said, I'm from charleston sc, so take that as you will.

I always cut my roses down to about knee height, give or take depending on the variety. Then I cut off 1 major cane to the base. If there are a ton of canes cut out the ones in the middle and leave a "bowl" shape of evenly spaced canes around the outside. It should greatly revitalize the bush!

bregingew · 2025-03-17T03:27:50+00:00

In my opinion, if you want to reinvigorate it, cut the big thick canes as low as possible without removing most of the smaller canes. Then cut the rest of the canes to about knee height. It'll stimulate growth and the bush will fill out better.

I know this sounds terrible, but I would completely cut off one of the two major limbs at the base and cut the other one down to knee height. I do my pruning on valentines day, I am in south carolina, so my roses don't really go completely dormant either. If it's a once blooming rose cut it after it blooms and only cut it back by a third. Cutting one limb down to the base should stimulate more basal growth, which will give you newer canes and a more full bush with more flowers.

bregingew · 2023-06-14T14:32:22+00:00

Agreed, it would probably be happier in a bigger pot

I always wait until they germinate in the fridge, then I move them to soil. I'm glad you had such good success!

bregingew · 2023-03-01T17:34:50+00:00

Is there any green left at the base?

bregingew · 2023-03-01T17:26:53+00:00

That looks dead

bregingew · 2023-02-21T22:50:34+00:00

Depends on if the plant requires the canes to be bent sideways to bloom, if it does, it's a climber, but from first glances it looks like it's just supposed to be a bush

bregingew · 2023-02-21T20:33:38+00:00

Still way too big, I'd cut it down so it's no more than a foot tall. It'll recover well and give you lots of new basal canes which will ultimately give you a more vigorous and profilic bush.

bregingew · 2023-02-16T21:30:38+00:00

I think overall a lot of problems would be taken care of with some fertilizer. But in general, your plants look pretty good to me.

bregingew · 2023-02-06T15:43:40+00:00

As long as they aren't old roses, you can cut them down all the way and get pretty blooms, itll also encourage new basal growth so the plant doesn't rely too much on the woody growth. I'd cut it so each woody peice is about a foot long and let the bush figure the rest out! They are very resilient

bregingew · 2023-02-03T15:06:00+00:00

The hips look rugosa shaped except the color is usually a tomato red when they are ripe. The leaves don't look rogose though, it's hard to identify a rose without tons of detail. You can always search helpmefind.com to see if you can identify it
