It's so tempting to feed the plants right now. The daytime temps can be in the sixties and even seventies. Almost all of the roses that are not getting midday shade (they will get sun during four or five months of growing season) are setting leaves. I'm just about to embark on feeding them, though I will say that I am taking pains to keep them well hydrated.
Sounds like mini roses in pots might suit her well.
Or maybe she is more a daffodil person.
