@funcountess, I like your rake/pull down technique! I never did like to climb ladders. I have some long handled tools and a tall husband who must be related to your gardener.
The roses sound beautiful. What color are they? How long have you had them?

Hi,
My roses are anywhere from 50 years to 5 months.
They are everywhere from ice burg roses which are pure white, and very full and tall to a island of miniature tree roses, with low growers around them.
I think I have around 25 to 30 bushes.
I have some that are so dark red that they have a black cast to them, others are a chocolate red, and a million different colors of yellow, gold pink and multi colors.
For me the trick is not to butcher them.
Gardner’s only know how to chop stuff down. I tell Gardner’s hands off, or I coach them what to trim.
