I'm jumping in...wish me luck!!
Comments (27)I had to laugh at 'relaxing and reading the book' statement too. I love to read, but it would take about two years to get through a book in my garden. I try, then I notice a spent bloom that needs deadheading. I sit back down, oops, there is a weed.... I have Disneyland and it is a beauty, but it does need to be sprayed or you will have black spot. Regarding spraying, be sure that your roses are well watered at least a couple of hours prior to spraying and don't spray in the hot sun, I find that morning works best for me after I watered well late afternoon the day before. I have found the organics work much better as fertilizer. Also be sure to water the entire bed, not just near the rose bush. The roots grow out quite far, watering close up won't get to them. Water well. I have found that many of the David Austin roses do well in the heat and hold up better than most, especially Mary Magdeline, Sophy's Rose, LD Braithwaite and Ambridge Rose. I also find it helpful to pay close attention to zones when people post here. While I agree with everything written on this post, it is all universal, many things are regional. A rose that works well somewhere else may not work well for you in your zone. Welcome Lisa. Come pick out brains any time.

Comments (11)Not sure there is any logic to it, that just happens to be where the separate sub topic called African Violet Exchange was stored. It probably is a left-over from the separate forum for exchanges back when this was simply Garden Web. I got an alert that I received a new notification on an old thread in this section. To try to get to this section, I typed in on a Google search the words African Violet Exchange and it lead me directly to this section. So that seems to be another way to land here directly from the internet without having to wind through the Houzz lists. Joanne...See MoreRosie1949
