I have used Bayer Shrub and Tree Protect. on 27 of my roses, and Bayer 3-in-1 on 11 of them. This is the first year I have used these products. They have helped a lot, but nothing is perfect. I would say that over the past 15-years my roses have been chewed up when the get to the bud stage starting in about the 4th week of June through the last week of August, and I have had no roses during that period of time. Then by September I started getting a few more blooms, but the bushes are so damaged by that time that it has been not very worthwhile growing them.
I thought I would try these Bayer products, and they have worked well, but there effectiveness is starting to wear off. The Shrub and Tree Protect is supposed to last one-year. The 3-in-1 is supposed to last 6-weeks, and I have had in out there 4.5 weeks. Most of my roses are actually blooming in July. About 5 of them are being eaten up before they get much bloom started.
