Why do the wild roses never have problems - no aphids, mold or anything. It's only the cultivars that need to be coddled.

They always try to claw me to death whenever I go near them. Amazing that this is the genesis of so many cultivars we've come to love.

Love it reminds me of my mums when I was a kid.
They have realised this that wild and old varieties dont get disease so they are now crossing roses with the old and wild ones.

I've noticed that too, Paul. Strange isn't?
