J LOVE asked:


they munch up my roses and make them look horrible :( any suggestions? i dont even know what kind of bugs they are tho, i just have a bunch of holy roses every year!
Also, will using these sprays deter bees and butterflies? I do not mind them, and would prefer they stay. I just don’t want the bugs who treat my roses like lunch!

Anthony Anthony asked:


Literally.
I’m basing this off of a song I heard called “Black Roses Red” which my girlfriend loves.
I know there are no such thing as black roses, but on her birthday I want to give her roses that are black the moment I give them to her, and turn red maybe a few hours later.
Is there any way to do this?

NIshzhoni asked:


I have a “brown thumb” but I know I can do this, with the help of those gardeners out there in this website. I had these two roses (from a bouquet) for two weeks and I think I can make them grow roots. If so, how long do I have to wait? I just wonder if I have to use some kind of fertilizer for the water… please advice me.
