Great article. Your article is my story. Busy, do not have time to baby plants. Raising my hand and admit to buying those wax body bags because the picture looks so pretty.
All reason goes out my mind when I see those pictures and suddenly I am a zone 7 or 8 and all the time in the world to baby 20 rose bushes. Hybrid Tea roses that hate my cold winters, and hot humid summers.
I really like hybrid tea shape. I do not like the single blooms or David Austins. What is a girl to do?
I will use your advice and do a better job at picking some roses that will survive more than a few years.
