Sorry..been gone a long time...computer had to go in for repair.

My Crown Princess and Gertrude are doing very well. So far not much happening to the leaves,etc...a few aphids and the grasshoppers are getting some leaves. Beetles are too busy trying to kill my Wisteria to get on the roses yet!

I'm going to go and figure out how to post a picture. My Gertrude had one bloom and it was beautiful. The red bush and yellow bush I got from J&P are getting pretty big. Red one bloomed today and the yellow is very tall but has no blooms yet. I waited to fetilize the Gertrude until it bloomed. Crown Princess is expanding toward the fence now but has no blooms as of yet.So proud to have any blooms this summer! Hope all of you are having lots of luck! I'm sure next year the beetles will try to kill the roses but this year I've been lucky!! :)))))
