Rose Buds Did Not Bloom

Question From: A. Newland - Aylesbury, , United Kingdom
Q: my rose buds seem to have gone whats happened its a Queen Elizabeth jublee rose

A: Lack of sun and/or too much fertilizer are the usual causes of lack of flowering. Roses need a minimum of 6 hours of direct sun daily. More is better. Regular watering when Mother Nature slacks off also helps. Best And Happy Yardening, Nancy
