Thérèse Bugnet-Chlorisis and the Big Good-Bye
Started yellowing and falling off in bloom production last year-ordinary
fertilizers did not help. Finally found Plant Prod Iron Chelate-has helped somewhat with the veining and yellowing, but not completely. I'm inclined to forego any more treatments and replace this with something else, probably another in the Morden series. Or should I try severely cutting back in late August and watch to see what happens in the spring again? What would you do? |

Why don't you try amending your soil to correct the pH problem that is creating the chlorosis. Rugosas are notoriously sensitive to alkaline soils and prefer quite acid conditions. Any rose that you plant in it's place will probably have similar issues, just not as prominently. Well, of the 9 or so varieties in that bed (all Parkland, Explorer or Mordens) only the one is really affected. The rest showed barely any hint of yellowing after 4 years. Another poster said these were notorious for that very problem. |

Really now, quit believing "what's in it for me" Cheney, and read the republican dominated report that disputes what you just said. Roger Boughner wrote: those WMD's were airplanes flown into places with lots of people in them and a guy named Sadam paying their families the incentive money. Enough reason for me. "Larry Blanchard" wrote in message ... In article , says... I am probably going to shovel prune mine and replace it with a modern shrub, varitey to be determined. That's odd - every time one of my modern roses gets winter killed, I replace it with another rugosa :-). BTW, I have Marie Bugnet, the unknown (almost) Bugnet. More blooms than any other rose I've got. By the time the season is over, I'm really tired of deadheading :-). -- Where ARE those Iraqi WMDs? Thanks for hijacking my thread with a totally irrelevant aside. |
