Remember the question I had asked about my rose long back?

I just changed the place I had kept it in, I shifted the pot to another side of my balcony where the afternoon sun does not come, sprayed it with a strong Neem and turmeric decoction and pruned it rather deeply. I did this a month ago and yesterday, the first rose fro this season bloomed! See for yourself the results I got! I feel rather pleased and proud of myself!!! :) :) :)

Yes Usha the weather in Pune is really good for growing not just roses but many other flowers as well! Actually I regularly pruned it lightly after each flush was gone, and deeply once a year, and also regular feedings. Yet there was some problem, the buds kept appearing and just drying off for no reason. Now after changing place I realized that the afternoon sun was playing spoilsport!

A couple of years ago, I had very beautiful red carnations growing in a pretty small pot! I wanted to continue growing but could not get a seedling anywhere!

Wow lovely flowers Usha! They look exactly like I had! Here's a photo of carnations I had!
