Lyn, is there a standard number of buds that are grafted on each rose? I would like to know more about the budding process. The maiden roses I got from Steve Singer have many buds, where some of the new ones I bought have 3 canes and no more buds that I can see. The process is not like tree grafting, is it?
I took one of my maidens from Wisconsin roses to my Rose Society meeting, and they were fascinated like me. We never knew that roses grew that way their first year. I'm about to cut the tops off them because they are getting leaves.
