 What a beautiful rose..That's a David Austin Rose that J&P just started carrying..yum yum...Toots the Alfalfa Tea will most definitely benefit your rose but some young roses unfortunately get those pencil-size canes that aren't strong enough to hold up the blooms..I am having the same problem with Both my "Mme. Joseph Schwartz" & "Duchesse de Brabant"..I am awaiting for mine to finish their blooms!!..They are loaded and I don't have the heart to prune them now..but I will hard prune mine right above an outward eye..the main canes will then be able to focus on growing bigger and stronger...Hope this helps..and that is a gorgeous shade of pink my dear....Jeannehttp://www.jeanne.albums.gardenbuddies.com/gallery/ http://www.thegardengalleries.org/v/Jeanne/ CAMERA: FUJI FINEPIX A330 "A bit of perfume always clings to the hand that gives the rose." -Chinese proverb |

Yup..I'd prune those that have thin canes and give both rose fertilizer and alfalfa tea...OH MY that pic is the pretties I've seen of him..love that yellowy-sunburst color on the inside...Jeanne http://www.jeanne.albums.gardenbuddies.com/gallery/ http://www.thegardengalleries.org/v/Jeanne/ CAMERA: FUJI FINEPIX A330 "A bit of perfume always clings to the hand that gives the rose." -Chinese proverb |
