Yeah, if they are still alive and growing then you can get them to bloom again.

Roses always bloom in the summer.

For them to bloom you will need to fertilize them. They need food.

You can buy special rose feeder http://www.gemgardening.co.uk/pages/feeds_superrose.htm

It will say on the pack how to dilute.

To bloom roses need to be fed and also to be cut back harshly in October and again in early spring.

Hmm ok. I'll have to try and persuade my mum to get some of that, or would normal plant food work?

We have lots of manure, or is that stuff best?

No they need special amount of nitrogen, phosphorous, and potassium so normal flower food wont help. Miracle Gro is something like 24-8-16, heavy on the nitrogen. Rose food will be more like 8-10-8. Roses like more phosphorous to bloom.

you can pick some up for a couple of quid
