Izhar our climate is very suitable for roses.but some roses like Abracadebra(black tiger)as pitured in second no from the top reverts back to its parents.like the one pictured here reverted back to black beauty.some times it reverts back to gold medal.in Swat this variety never reverts back.

OH - MY - GOD!!! What are they feeding them? Beautiful and so well looked after. I think a lot has to do with the sun. These definitely get the required 6 hours of direct sun for maximum bloom.

Beautiful Farhan & PAF Academy is full of roses like these.Khan sb actually when roses or annuals when planted in masses give the maximum color impact.this is the real secret.they only feed it with old manure.
