RE: No blooms!! -Reply

Hi Susan,
Rose do well here as long as they get plenty of sun and water.Where I live
in Brisbane, which is a northern state,It is a little more difficult than in
somewhere like Melbourne Where I am originally from.Its much warmer here and
more humid.I have trouble with blackspot and I have powdery mildew only on
my Mal Maison.But it is quite severe.I will try the spray from Carleen.
It never freezes here!!!I think our climate is like Florida.The
aforementioned Mal Maison has tons of blooms on it.I wish I had a scanner,
so I could show you all!!
Bye for now
Mia
