Thur the summer my tree rose treated me to a lot of flowers, but by end of August leaf production has slowed down considerably. So, I decided to plant it in ground, and the results have been dramatic. Right now it has 7 buds and lots and lots of leaves. It is planted between 2 crape myrtles.

Upon examining the pot, I noticed a couple of white grubs (yuk), I guess they were really doing a number on my beautiful rose. I used top quality soil when I planted in pot, don't know where they came from. But anyway, it's doing well now.
