Growing David Austin Roses in So. Calif.

Does anyone have any problems with DA roses in So. Cal? As much as I like them I am considering tearing all of mine out... they get every disease and fungus in the book...the flowers are too big for the stems and they seem to flop as well as burn in the heat of summer...Any ideas would be appreciated!!!

Hi Mike,

Glad to see you posting already. Again welcome to this great site.

You might want to post this same question in the California Forum and the Rose Forum. It might get more feedback. We do have several members here in SoCal that grow roses, so don't give up yet. lol

I will return your email shortly.
