Due to cooler temperatures, it’s a good time to fertilize roses in the fall to prepare for winter. Roots store up nutrients for the plant. The result is beautiful spring blooms! We use a special fertilizer that has the ingredients needed by roses: Espoma RT8 8-Pound Rose-Tone Plant Food



For beginner gardener, roses can be a bit of a challenge. If the leaves get wet when you water roses, the leaves can be susceptible to fungus.

Spray Safer Brand Garden Fungicide Ready to Use 32 Ounces 5450 at the first sign of black spot.
