I have quite a few of his roses already Lia, and I can't see my getting any more...no room...plus roses don't seem to do very well for me...too much blackspot!

Peccato! What a pity!

In effect I found that engish roses in pots on my roof garden prefer partial shade, in the hot sun they get buds burned by sun!

Lol...yes! Now there's a different kind of sunshine where you are gardening! You would not have believed the 'summer' We endured here last year...it was really terrible. There was so little sun and so much rain, I almost dug them all up! They all lost ALL of their leaves through black spot, and every time a flower formed the rain destroyed it. honestly Lia...it was the worst summer I can remember...ever! Thankfully, this year...I have roses!!

In my zone last year has been very hot all summer long,african air, terrible, roses ha dstop flowering and I had to water pots two ore three times in a day!
So we went i England in August for some freshness!
I remember a very hot Sunday in London, it was terrible!
Then after 3 days it became nice, alsi if it rained sometimes suddenly, after an half hour sun was shining agian and it was wonderful!
This year summer is quite English, it's been very hot the last week of june, then it came to rain and the weather was quite cool, now it's my favorate temperature, sunny and a little windy and fresh in thhe evening, blackspot seemd to vanish and roses an flowers are going well!
I hope that L'anticiclone dell azzore will remain untill september! Finger crossed!
xxx Lia
