🌹 Downy Mildew on Roses • Spring brings warmer days, but cool, damp nights can create the perfect conditions for downy mildew.

Downy mildew can cause purple irregular patches, often accompanied by early leaf drop. Encourage good airflow, and avoid wetting foliage where possible.

If you do find Downy mildew we suggest spraying with Buxus Blight Fighter or Buxus Blight Buster

🌹 ROSES WITH AN EYE • Some roses have a beautifully contrasting centre, where the stamens or inner petals create a little burst of colour that draws your eye straight into the heart of the flower.

This unusual feature can give a rose a wonderfully unique and novelty appeal; adding character and a little something unexpected that sets it apart from more traditional blooms. 🌸

From golden centres against blush pink petals, to deep contrasting tones surrounded by creamy whites, these roses have a way of making you stop and look a little closer

Would you grow a rose with a contrasting “eye” in your garden? 👁️🌹

🌹 SILVER BLIGHT IN ROSES • Seeing silvery, grey or bleached-looking foliage on your rose? It could be silver blight

Unfortunately, once a rose is affected, our advice is to remove the rose from the garden
