What is your question for a Master Gardener?
I grew roses in Nevada and they were very successful. My attempts at growing roses in Indiana, not so much. Can you provide some basic tips on growing roses in Indiana? My thanks
Welcome to Indiana, Scott. I’m sorry your rose growing experience is not as positive here as it was in Nevada. I’m sure the humidity is a big factor in maintaining beautiful roses. I have included a couple of links that may improve your experience in growing mid-west roses. The first link suggests some cultivars that do well in this climate. The other link is rose care in a calendar form which probably varies from your experience from the West. I hope these help. Contact us again if you need any additional information.
