    Hello from Japan!

    I live in a tiny Swedish house with my two cockatiels Agatha and Beatrice and my rabbit Henry. I have been growing roses for a few years, kind of by accident, and I am here to humbly seek your advice on all things roses. I am partial to David Austin roses and I have a Constance Spry, Golden Celebration, Boscobel, and Raymond Carver, as well as two climbing roses named La Minuet and Pierre De Ronsard (the latter of which I purchased at an English Garden in Nagano Prefecture). I am a thoroughly mediocre rosekeeper, and I am perpetually surprised my roses haven't yet diminished into the west like the elves.

    I am looking forward to hearing from you all. (I had some questions about soil conditions, because my leaves are turning yellow, but that's perhaps best saved for another thread.)

    Grant me your wisdom, O Enlightened Ones!

    - Sanna

              Welcome @Sanna if you check on the lists of threads there are specific ones for Rose growing. I am sure you will get lots of advice and inspiration there.
