nippstress - zone 5 NebraskaUpdated July 23, 2015 Nicole - it could well be canker for all I know - that word gets used pretty broadly for a lot of conditions. For me, it's enough to say the canes were damaged and the damage was spreading, and that's clearly enough to recommend t...

zack_lau z6 CTUpdated July 22, 2015 The best time for really severe pruning is at the end of winter. If you try that now, the bugs or bunnies may get all the new growth, and kill the plant. In my experience, roses regenerate just fine if you take out one or two of ...

michaelg(7a NC Mts)Updated July 21, 2015 Could the basic plant be a 'Chicago Peace' that has reverted back to 'Peace' on one stem? If you are not used to seeing light yellow and cream rimmed with light pink, it isn't a plant of 'Peace'.
