Thérèse Bugnet-Chlorisis and the Big Good-Bye
 

This variety is well known for showing symptoms of iron deficiency.

I find that the only iron effecitve iron to be 'Sequesterine'. It is
expensive, however it works very well and the best bang for the buck in iron
supplements.

I am probably going to shovel prune mine and replace it with a modern shrub,
varitey to be determined.

The Morden roses are very good, I have 6 or so and recommend all of them.

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?
