Question
I saw a question from a Milwaukee rose grower that relates to my problem.  All my roses that survived the winter are growing rapidly -- in fact, frighteningly so. The plants themselves are huge with long canes that seem to emerge from the ground, not the stalk of the plant.  Yet not one of the seven plants has produced a single bud this year.  On the other hand, a rose bush I planted in May has already produced a second set of  blooms.  Do you know what the problem might be?

Answer
In your zone, sometimes two things can happen to roses. One is that the flower buds were killed in the very early spring because of a cold snap. Flower buds are tender and even just a normal frost can damage them. The other problem could be that the rose itself was killed over the winter and what you see growing is the understock which is always very vigorous. Two things will happen. New flower buds will be made and the rose will bloom later or the understock will bloom with semi double red flowers if it is Dr. Huey. Other understocks with narrow leaves and tiny white flowers, should have bloomed by now.
There is another possibility which I hope is the real problem and that is your roses are making strong growth at the expense of making flowers.   Long, tall canes over 3 feet suggest your roses may be Dr. Huey as this rose is a climber. If the growth is from the roses you planted, then take heart that they are very healthy. All you can do is wait. I would however pull back if you are fertilizing them too heavily. From your description, it sounds like they are getting too much nitrogen.
