First light…
been scorching in more ways than one here in Portland. The City of Roses is under stress in more ways than one…my roses are struggling. This one, this morning at dawn, seemed happy. It gets some afternoon shade.

What is this?
In Portland, this Spring, we have had heavy rains and warmer temps. The roses, in our garden, look quite stressed. Some rose buds have the “balling” signs (thick, gluey outer coating stopping the rose from opening). This bud had the moss like growths popping out from the base of the frustrated petals. I have never seen this before. Warmer, drier weather has arrived for a bit, so I hope this remedies what ails them.

Bejeweled…
Looking slightly better than most of my rain battered roses. Sunshine and warmth arriving soon. Lots of pruning for now.
