This gives me hope that I too can grow roses. I planted one Sunny last year and see little buds now after the plant was mashed to the ground during a wet, heavy snow this winter. Go Sunny! '-)

Thanks, it's showing new growth that is clear! It was my mother's favorite in our garden!

I recommend Oxidate from BioSafe- it's what we use and have great success with.

I have black spot on a heirloom peace rose. What do you suggest to cure it?

I always recommend Knockout roses to clients wanting to add roses to their gardens. They're beautiful, easy-care, bloom all summer, and they're perfect for sustainable gardening since they don't need chemical sprays to stay healthy. They even bloom well in part sun. Oh, and did I say they're beautiful?
