The first of the yellow mini rose, that I think is SunMaid, has a nice bud.
I check every day for aphids.
It helps to hold the plant on its side, so the aphids don't just fall onto to soil and climb back up.
Last year with the peppers, the only satisfactory solution was to spritz off the aphids, so that's what I'm doing now. As the season progresses, I think they will go away.
Another observation - some of the plants have new shoots coming from underground.
So I think they'll become more bushy as the plants mature.
This is a fun project.
