Comments on How to Care for Roses

    I planted five roses this last Spring. Four are doing great - one isn't living and isn't dying. They are all hooked up to a drip system, mulched and been given rose feed. Does anyone have any suggestions for anything I can do for the one that isn't doing well? Thanks in advance for the help.

    Last fall I covered my 3 rose bushes with 3 feet of leaves. How soon do I remove the leaves?

    I have two rose plants, one outside one inside. I have these bugs on them. I don't know what they are. They seem to form little webs on the leaves and buds. The ones I see on my indoor look like little nats. Does anyone know what these may be and how to get rid of them?

    Put a couple of drops of dish soap in a squirt bottle and fill with water. Shake it up and wait about 30 minutes for the suds to settle. Spray the entire plant (leaves and flowers) with the mixture. The Japanese beetles hate the soap and stay away. I do this about 3 times each week (but not before expected rain).

    After washing my rice, I use the first wash of rice (i.e rice milk) to water my roses. Since practicing this kind of method, my container roses grow healthy, thick stems, deep green stem and leaves, and the best thing is my roses can continually produce gorgeous and pretty blooms.
