Do any of you feed your roses ?
What do you feed them ?
rosarians
Liked Ortho when I had roses. For the ones I had where I was I used the one that had feed and a systemic, But they also got a scatter of 11-0-0 from their proximity to my huge pecans ( and I know they dont make that fert anymore- you get ammonium sulfate instead).
I typically use a slow release nitrogen fertilizer, i.e.: the same thing I use on my yard grass. That and a dose of Bayer Rose and something or other (in the blue bottle) about every four months seems to take care of the few roses I have left just fine.
Occasionally will deep water a manure tea, or side dress with manure, and twice a year if I remember I sprinkle with Epsom salts.
