    Roses are heavy feeders! They appreciate any type of food!
    I have used a few different fertilizers. An application of slow release granules in the spring when they set buds, water soluble fish emulsions, “miracle grow”, coffee grounds, banana peels!
    Timing and correct use are key for the commercial products.
