Does this rose grow slow? I purchased a young own root from Antique Rose Emporium & planted it in January. A pair of buds appeared mid-March and they still haven't bloomed in early April. One eventually fell off while I was spraying it with water to battle a mild aphid infestation (which it seems to be fighting since I keep finding dead aphids stuck in its leaves). It gets Down to Earth 4-8-4 rose fertilizer at a low dose every 2 weeks.

Ahiko, mine (also own-root from ARE) grew to maybe 3 ft. In its first season, and has 7 ft canes in the 2nd. I wouldn’t worry too much…own root roses can take their time getting settled, and it would have been relatively dormant when you got it in January.

I have two floribunda roses ('Take It Easy' and 'First Crush') and a miniature rose that I would like to put into grow bags. What is the best size grow bag to grow my roses in?
