    Can anyone tell me why the flowers on my David Austen rose Golden Celebration reached the quarter to half bloom size but then droopped and went no further. I did try a good watering but with no success

    Thanks for any suggestions.

    I'm not sure, maybe the heat? I had trouble with my Julia Child rose and the local nursery suggested "Bayer Rose Care" Seems to be helping :p

    I have also used Bayer All-in-one on my roses and they're healthy and budding. I only water about once a week.

    If it has been very hot that probably is why it dropped and fell. My roses are in full bloom right now but are looking a bit droopy in this 90 degree heat. They perk up once the sun is off of them.
