    Last question I promise. Which spray is the best for roses? In the garden centre I saw they were using "Rose Clear" - will I just get that one? The rose already has some chewed leaves!! :help:

    Good morning Fumanchu ask as many questions as you wish,that's what this Forum is all about,I personally don't spray my roses with chemicals,as I use organic methods but I believe Rose Clear is recommended,personally I would wait until one of our friends can give you some sound advice on which spray is the best,would a photo of the rose leaves be possible:)

      I used rose clear and untill last week wouid have sung its praises- however i cannot use it now because i have 40+ baby bumble bees and i dont want to harm them. so if youve got no bees its wonderful

      Organic alternatives is what i need to look into
