We feed with 3.1.5 and bonemeal we water regularly. The new growth after december looks sickly and pale, many buds wither up, the do flower but look apalling. Have you any tips. we have a problem with small surface-burrowing moles amongst the roses. Could they be the problem.Thanks We have iceberg roses in bush and standard form in front of our house, North facing in deep sandy soil near Wilderness, they star the summer well and give a good show of flowers with green leaves, by December they have flowered and have been pruned to remove old flowers and keep shape.
