It doesn't mention anything about RRD or hyperthorniness or overgrowth. In short, there is no connection between this compost sold in Vermont and anyone here who has reported RRD.

You are obsessed.

I'm glad to have the link. Too bad for the businessman.

No doubt it's true that some people are mistaking herbicide damage for RRD.

But I've lost six roses to RRD this year. Some of these were probably owing to my not roguing the first one fast enough. I tried removing just the infected cane, and the plant looked OK for a while, but meanwhile its immediate neighbor got sick.
