canadian_rose(zone 3a)Updated July 12, 2014 Yes, I had that one in a pot. Tons of blooms. Really nice plant - I gave it away once I found my passion for heavily scented roses. :) Yours looks great!! Carol

farmerduckUpdated July 12, 2014 I have my JC for four years now, and it has been an under-performer: although not the worst offender, it blackspots heavily, and, because it is not the most vigorous bush, it remains quite small in size (probably due to blackspott...

Strange-Looking Fungi in Landscape Mulch

buford(7 NE GA)Updated July 12, 2014 I wish I didn't have to mulch, but I do. I am trying to grow ground cover over a lot of area so I can cut down on mulching. But usually the mulch (even with the stinky fungus) is great for the soil.

Advice needed please

Patty W. zone 5a IllinoisUpdated July 12, 2014 Thank you everyone. Since I've already cut it down to the crown I'll be waiting to see what grows back. Will call extension Monday. My guess is that a sample of a rose bush would need to be sent to the University of Illinois.

seil zone 6b MIUpdated July 12, 2014 Thanks! No disease so far. The bloom lasted a couple of days but like I said I missed the beginning some how. Ky, I have my first Autumn Splendor about to open so I'll be able to compare them!

ehlerslwUpdated July 11, 2014 I always deadhead the four knockouts I have. I do trim off the limbs that get taller then the others to shape it up.

Do you think this is possible?

Patty W. zone 5a IllinoisUpdated July 11, 2014 We have rose midge in Illinois.The second year was the worst for me. Not a bloom in sight very depressing indeed. That was the last time I used insecticides in my garden. Apparently the good guys were able to establish them selves...

AquaEyes 7a New JerseyUpdated July 11, 2014 I'm not in Florida, but I think perhaps that most (if not all) of the Tea-Noisettes* would do well there. If you have root knot nematodes in your soil, look for them (and any other rose) grafted onto 'Fortuniana'. *Note that many ...
