I planted a rose (disneyland resort rose) in an appropriate container. She stared sprouting new growth but all of a sudden they're starting to wilt. I don't know what could be the problem as shes well watered and I used rose soil to plant her. Shes getting enough sunlight and the other two roses that are in containers next to her ( brandy and blue girl) are doing beautiful. I don't want to lose her because she is a show stopper. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!!
Wilting rose bush. What to do?
Where are you? Is this an indoor or outdoor plant? Is the container drained? How long ago were the three roses planted? Same soil and container types?
My guess is that you've got bad soil or root rot or a phloem translocation disease, but I can't tell from information given.
Reply:Roses like rich loamy soil and they like to be watered often. If you live in a dry climate I would up the water usage maybe 2-3 times per week. If you live in an area where you get lots of moisture and you are also watering it could be getting too much water.
Inspect your roses closely you might have aphids, thrips, or powdery mildew these are insects and fungus that roses are sucetible to.
Cut off a good clipping from the bad rose and take to your nearest nursery store. Ask for a store manager or horticultist...They just might have the answer for you.
Reply:Any climate change may shock plants. I don't know where you live but this time of year is when you prune roses to prepare for spring. By encouraging growth now may cause destruction to the plant if the weather gets to cold and freezes the new growth.
Reply:Is this an outdoor plant? This is the time of year that roses go dormat and you cut them back.
