Roses Losing Petals Quickly?
The more heavily perfumed the rose, the quicker the petals seem to fall off. They are more like the original rose, the unperfumed modern roses seem to keep their petals longer, but are not as nice. As far as I know there is nothing you can do about it except...

African Violets Infested with Insects?
