I have Rosa Albertine (15 yrs old) growing on a metal fence for last 2 yrs and it is not thriving. It was previously on a wooden fence which had to be replaced. The rose was not moved and is fed and given a good mulch of well rotted manure every year. Does it dislike it’s metal support which is painted with Hammerite paint?
