Roses are the longest summer blooming and fragrant flowers of the season. They can range from short to tall, blooming on a single rose per stem to blooming in bouquets of 5 to 7 giving color to a yard or garden. In the Tri-City area roses are easy to take care of with an occasional dead heading or pruning and using some simple tricks to care for them. To minimize powdery mildew on roses space them so the get plenty of air flow and in a sunny location, example: Hybrid Teas need to spaced 4 to 5 feet apart.
