My plant which is 12 months old is forever in flower. It is growing in a 500mm pot in premium potting mix. The pot required 50 litres of potting mix to fill it. Chopped lucerne mulch was added.

We have had an unusually rainy and humid summer here in Toowoomba's mild temperate climate. Black Spot has been very severe. In fact in 22 years of rose growing here I have never seen
so much black spot. 'Lady of Australia' has suffered terribly from black spot but has kept flowering.
