Hello ~ I dug up a rose vine growing in my mothers yard that she didn't want. She said it never bloomed and only put out one long stem. So, I took it from MO to Iowa last fall, I trimmed it back and it threw out 3 more stems. It survived the winter but I had to trim it down some. Well... it's growing great but it still won't bloom. How many years will it take to bloom? I still don't know what it is.

Please help!!!

Hi Donna, have you used any rose food or fertilizer on it? is it getting full sun? If you are a paid member here you can try posting this on the rose forum. some really knowledgable folks post there.

I did fertilize it in spring. It has lots of new stems and even side stems but no blooms. I don't know what to think!

It's probably trying just to establish it's root system. I usually give something 3 seasons.
