From what I have read for rust you need to spray with an organic anti-fungal spray once a week. Watering by drip takes care of a lot of problems and making sure they are fed and get lots of sun. I am still keeping my fingers crossed with my 3 new rose bushes this year. I can’t believe you have 50!

When I first moved here I had problems with the roses that were here. I changed the watering cycle for the roses to 6:00 am and the rest of the property stayed at 2:00 am. That helped. I now have just changed the roses to drip and that should further help. I do seem to be having a Rust problem. Any suggestions? The roses’s I inherited from the previous owner are amazing. 50 plants!!

I’m working with a friend who paints florals (and other things), this rose is a perfect fit for her collection…

That’s the rose with petals that are dark outside? We had them on a table, having a tea break between visiting open gardens. Loved it, but I really can’t add any more roses. Will just have to enjoy the pictures!
