We have had problems with the super market ones.
Perhaps they were pushed to much.

Maybe it didn't get enough sunlight and not enough food (pushing) to
live.


Hope a greenhouse expert comes in on this - they might be the person to
knows.

Hi guys,

For Valentine's Day my husband gave me a thoughtful gift - a
supermarket mini-rose. I wasn't sure how long it would last, but it
was doing pretty well until this week. When I first received it, I
read up on its care and have been looking after it as best I could.

Anyhow, I think it might have died or is in the process of dying. I'm
not sure if I can save it or not. On Tuesday I came home to discover
that almost all the leaves had curled and dried up, whereas I know at
least on Sunday, when I watered it, that it was far more lush. Only
three or four leaves didn't curl and dry up!

I thought maybe I had underwatered it, so I watered it generously, but
on Wednesday the soil was still quite moist. Usually it is more
thirsty than that.

I trimmed most of the dried up leaves and it's now a very sad looking
little plant. Is there anything I can do for it? It does not appear to
have aphids, although there were aphids in the past, which I killed
with soapy water.

Thanks,
Christine
