Twiggy Hedge Roses
We put in a small section of hedge roses along our front walkway about
two years ago. They took fine, but we can't get them to fill out, they just grow higher and bloom only at the top. We tried cutting them back at the beginning of this season, but this doesn't seem to have made any difference. They're getting plenty of sun, food and water this year, too. Any ideas? -Lew |

Better coices for hedging are rugosas for cold climates, chinas for warm climates and some floribundas or polyanthas for most of in between. |
