	Q: I would love to grow potatoes in my vegetable garden, especially some of the hard-to-find varieties &#8212; blue, purple, etc. But the plants are always destroyed by bugs. Any suggestions?

Prune climbing roses and ramblers after they have bloomed. Remove dead canes and 2-year-old wood, and cut back the tops of this year&#8217;s growth about 6 inches. Ramblers bloom on the previous year&#8217;s [...]<br/>
