Hello,

I have several burgandy velvet rose plants in my rose beds which have a
peculiar problem.

They produce a dozen roses in one go. But they have only a few green
leaves - sometimes about 5 to 10 leaves or less on a plant which is already
50cm tall. They are not young plants and I have had them in my garden for
over 5 summers.

They get full sun 12+ hours a day.

I fertilize them and they get regular watering.

What is the problem?

Cheers!!
