Mulching roses

Unless you have already done this (perhaps when the roses were pruned in February or March), now is a good time to mulch around roses ; and other shrubs as well. A 3in (8cm) layer of well-rotted compost or animal manure will feed the soil and help prevent weeds ; but watch out for the thorns!
