Roses gone bad

HYBRID TEAS......this is the most beloved class. They come in many colours and also have different growing shapes. Most prefer a rich soil, water and monthly fertilizing to make the perfect blooms. Some even will need a spray program to keep black spot under control. Hard pruning will give you fewer but more perfect flowers, while lighter pruning gives you more blooms but not all will be perfection. The old rule was to prune to your knee height. Still works to-day.
