Very pretty 💕💕

I started feeding my Roses with banana skins and am pleased with the results 😀 🍌 I'm having one of my 5 a day and they are benefiting from them too #Feed and #Fertiliser

Win win! 👍🏼👏🏼 looks lovely and healthy 👌🏼 do you literally put the skins around the base of the plant..? 🤔

I bury them just below the surface around the base of plant Rachel, don't want the doggies running off with them Rachel 😄 @rachelbrooks

That looks so good does this mean you will get. (Bunches of yellow roses)😀😀😀

Err no, maybe not! 😂 thanks Jan, I'll have to give it a try 👍🏼

Morning Jan, lovely rose 😍

Good night Jan. Lovely rose. Just in time for our 24th anniversary😄

These are just for you then Dar @SikoMa nite nite😘

Thank you Jan. Best flowers I've ever received😊😄😙

Morning Gtaggers I have found lots of tiny black bugs in my new rose this morning will they harm do I need to treat if so what with? Thank you

At work we use a garlic spray (Garberry) which helps build resistance to blackfly, etc. Seems to have worked well on the roses this year.

Thank you @cwakefield84 for that will give that a try 👍

They look like pollen beetles, generally harmless but they can cause problems with pollination when it comes to fruit and veg. I always see loads when the rapeseed is in flower as they feast on that and then fly elsewhere for second helpings!

Thanks @tash74 for the info👍🏻

Super pink bloom 💕

They don't seem to have affected it , lovely 💗

I've got them on my roses too, I think they are flea beetles

Your rose is beautiful 😊

Thank you @Amandaj @juliesgarden & @debs69 earlier this afternoon I sprayed the Rose with diluted washing-up liquid and for the moment bugs have disappeared👏👏👍🏻

👍👍

@janric did it work? Have they gone?
