    Hi I purchased blue moon as a bareroot earlier this year, and now I'm struggling on where to place it. Iv put it on the NE side of my garden as it would fit in with the colours I have gone for on that side however I don't think its liking it as it only gets about 1-2 hours of sunshine a day. The problem is I have no space for it anywhere and I'm abit stuck on where to put it anyone know what else I could do with it ? Can I dig up and keep in container till I have more room for it? Thanks

    Hi Natty are you sure it is "Blue Moon" or is it Twice in a Blue Moon,if it is Bue Moon please spray it for Black Spot as the are prone to this,anyway you can certainly dig it up and place it in a large container and then you can put it in a more appropriate position in your garden my friend :)

        Hi Natty, roses are sun lovers, so as much as you can give it. :)

          Blue Roses - I once produced a true blue Rose colour by putting food dye in the roots of a rose.
