My wife's many rose bushes are unusually prolific and healthy this
year. I've noticed a few other yards in our area with great roses as
well. We're in Maryland, just north of Baltimore. I wonder if all that
snow this past winter perked them up. Or scared them into blooming.

Paul ours in DE on the state line west of Dover are doing fabulously
this year too. For the first time we cut them all down to about 5"
tall this winter. They have gotten lush and prolific. The oldest is
just blooming like crazy. What a joy. The smallest will get some
banana skins planted near its roots in 3 spots around it. Might do it
to all of them. They sure do like banana skins. Enjoy your beauties,
Nan
