An unfurling rose is one of nature’s seasonal joys. Signifying the arrival of summer, these beautiful blooms enchant us with their silken petals and heavenly perfume. They are, however, hungry plants, and by knowing what roses need in April, you can bolster their performance for this season and beyond.
Often regarded as tricky plants with complex needs, roses can be intimidating to many new to gardening, but with a little rose care and growing know-how, plus the right timing, they can prove hugely rewarding and a delight for weeks on end.
