One thing I have learned in my years of gardening is that it is always worth experimenting - despite any advice or opinion to the contrary. I've lost count of the number of people who have said that we can't grow roses well in Auckland - all that humidity and black spot! I love roses, so despite my clay soil and humid environment i've planted a number of old fashioned varieties, and i'm pleased to say that despite the odd black spot on the leaves (which I don't actually mind at all) the roses flower profusely and look wonderful to which the following photos will attest. I say, there are no rules when it comes to gardening and a bit of trial and error is the best way to determine what will or won't work!
