It's true that roses do require quite a bit of sun in order to bloom although White roses can take less ...so they say. ^__^
Indeed the scent of a rose is hard to beat....and surely is one criteria not to be missed when selecting a rose.
Thank you for your kind query. Oh yes...I would hope never to be without at least a few roses. These are from Bleujay's Rose Garden....this garden is exclusively Roses as it seems anything I plant with roses thrives and stifles the roses....so a Rose Garden it is.
Here's wishing you success with your Garden and any Roses especially. ^__^
Cheers, Bleujay
