Blooms on rosebushes

10 years ago

I live in Southwes Florida, In April2013 I planted 6 rosebushes. They look healthy and they do bloom, However, when they bloom the flower last 3 days and dies. I am wondering if being in the raining season (everyday rain) could be causeing that. They are planted where they get 6 hours of sun. Thank-you

You should ask in the Rose Forum here at GardenWeb, but I have to say that that's about right for my roses - one day of perfect bloom, another day in really good shape, by the third day they're about blown, another day or two and the petals fall off.
