Rescued Rose not producing Buds?

We're flipping a house and have been working on the garden. Last year we cleared out a multitude of overgrowth and mulberries grown absolutely wild by a previous owner who neglected the property for what seemed years. Lo and behold, there was a 8' rose stem which we lopped back to three feet and replanted in a better area.





This year it's lush and filled with green and continues to have great foliage - but no buds. I'm ready to give up and rip it out for the garbage but the curiosity is killing me as to what type of rose this is. Does anyone have any idea on how to get a rose to bud after growing wild for years?

Try putting your banana peels around the bushes. I have great rose blooms using the peels. Leave them for another year and hopefully they will bud.
Reply:My sister used wheatgrass pulp as fertiliser for all her plants, from papaya trees to flowering household plants. The results are fantastic. So many fruits and flowers. Non flowering plants are growing wonderfully.


She extracted the juice from the wheatgrass for drinking and used the pulp as fertiliser for many years now. Try it and see the results.
