'A Shropshire Lad' Rose


'A Shropshire Lad' Rose

Planted 3 years ago....this year is the best it has been...the first few years it was riddled with blackspot despite spraying. I bought it late in the season and it was pruned quite severely at the GC,.It was probably showing blackspot before.

I had this rose in my last garden...am racking my brains re blackspot, but all I can remember is its beautiful form, colour and scent! Keep spraying...

I use the one that is just for fungus. You have to really, with roses. Otherwise they become an eyesore by July.
