| Last year lost a lovely pink rose that stood at the beginning of my side garden. Being tired of beetles, would like to replace the rose with another shrub that has a pink bloom. Any ideas? TIA |

| Ken Adrian - sorry I did not supply more information. The replacement shrub will be in full sun, should bloom in spring when roses bloom and can eventually be 4'-5' tall and just as wide. Hope that helps. Really do not want another rose. We have lost so many roses since we've been here in Maine, and they were my husband's love as I know so little about them. Also, am really tired of fighting the beetles. Thanks for any help. |
