    Roses can be a joy to behold, In recent years have a purchased number of new roses which are more disease resistent. Florabunda 'Lovestruck' roses which flower from May until Sept, 'Scent of Heaven' which is a lovely climbing rose. I've made many mistakes ranging from not pruning my florabunba in March ...as a result I had to carry a builders bag around with me whilst deadheading! I've recently removed one of my old roses which only flowered for a short time and didn't have any scent.... as you've mentioned before plants need to earn their keep else one needs to be ruthless. Planning to make some more purchases as bareroots later in the year and move my climber which is currently located at the back of my border.... always put scented flowers in locations where they can be appreciated people. Keep up the good work, i do love the efforts you go to interview the experts

    I have a passion for roses. If I get a bouquet with roses in it I take a pencil length cutting and use rooting powder and pot up. Also I take cuttings of all of my roses, always think I will remember which rose it is.
    I always forget. Our house is referred to as the flower house, some of the flowers are were too.

I have planted an old -fashioned rose called Royal Jubilee - a lovely dusty pink with peony type flowers. It's raining heavily as I type this - which is why I'm inside watching UA-cam gardening videos. If the buds rot on this beautiful rose, at least I'll understand why!
