Van Houton Rose Blooms Second Time
Mrs. Della Shaw of Route One Athens reports her Dr. Van Houton rose bush, usually blooming in June once yearly, has bloomed a second time this year. She wonders if proximity to her perpetual roses, which bloom frequently, affects the unusual behavior. She has kept the plant for seven or eight years with no prior second bloom.
