| Hi All....I have noticed that the fragrance of my roses in general is not as strong...Do you think it could be the weather?...I remember earlier in the rose season the fragrance was a knockout when I had vase in the room....Do you think air-con could have something to do with it? ( our house is airconditioned)....This is well into the 2nd & 3rd flush and they have been fantastic but lacking in fragrance...even ones like Just Joey,Mr Lincoln Perfume Delight etc...should I be adding something to the soil?...any thoughts would be appreciated...Thanks...Michelle |

| It's the weather, and that's why the spring blloms are always total knockout. Pick them earlier, when they start to open and put them in a vase asap. - Tom |

| Hi Michelle...I picked a cluster of Charles de Gaulle buds yesterday morning and put them in a vase on the dining table, I had to move them when we were eating dinner as they were a little on the powerful side, so Michelle it could be a combination of the A/C as well......Cheers..MM. |
