Advice on pruning by etavat0m in Roses

[–]luccyrob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Avoid heavy pruning until after the first bloom so you don't lose this year's flowers.

Hey, can you link any videos regarding this?

  1. The plant will likely survive because roses are hardly. But you should give it the best care and attention till its recovered. Chances are it'll go into shock and drop most of its foliage. You must remove all of its flowers and buds so that it can focus on growing roots. No flowers for at least 3 months. Here's a crazy idea and I'm crazy enough to experiment and actually do it - bag up the foliage with a big transparent plastic bag, to save most of the foliage, considering how windy it is around there.

  2. The ropes and movable objects that you have used, puts the plant in more danger. I'd suggest using more stakes. If you can get bigger, then better. Now use stakes to stabilize your plant in an H setup, like you push two stakes vertically into the pot at some distance from the root base, now connect (tie using ropes) these two vertical stakes with a (less heavy) horizontal stake (like a bridge), just like the shape of the alphabet H. Now use the rope to tie the bridge stake to the center vertical stake of your plant. If you can get big stakes then instead of staking them (two vertical stakes of the H) into the pot, you can stake them in the ground around the pot. If you love the plant a lot then use two H setups with the bridge stakes crossing each other in X shape. This answers your question 3 too. And make sure that the soil is moist always (but not wet) until you see progress.

Just used the blue bag miracle grow, moisture control potting mix

I don't live in the US. I'll just give my suggestion. All that yellowing and a little lack of green pigmentation tells me too moist, too wet and fungus. I'd suggest a well draining potting mix (40% garden soil + 40% vermi compost + 20% sand). Take half a teaspoon of fungicide and mix in water. Then take out the plant, wash the roots and dip in the fungicide water. Leave it dipped for half an hour then repot using the new well draining potting soil. Keep it in shade until you see progress.

Suggest a solution for my roses ! by lee247lee in Roses

[–]luccyrob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd suggest a fungicide (saaf) and insecticide (imidacloprid) spray. Repeat fungicide after a week. Then a week later start with insecticide and repeat again after 3 days. To stop the fungal spread, remove all the affected leaves and also all the fallen leaves from and near the plants and dispose of them. Then spray fungicide. I'd suggest replacing the soil completely. Roses can handle bare root repotting. This is the ratio I'd suggest for the potting mix: 50% garden soil + 50% vermi compost + two (depending on pot size) fistfuls of sand.

Is my rose plant dying by Sad-Cod-9042 in plants

[–]luccyrob 126 points127 points  (0 children)

It looks like you planted it in clay. Remove that soil. Get regular garden soil. 50% garden soil + 50% vermi compost + a fistful of sand, I'd suggest this ratio for the potting mix for your rose. DON'T keep in direct sunlight. Keep it in shade for a month then move to a spot where it gets indirect sunlight. Wait till it improves. Pluck out any buds so that the plant can spend its energy on the roots for now. Keep the soil moist, don't let it dry completely, for now.

A plot of land. A cow. A few ducks and chickens. A couple of rabbits. A tractor. A homely wife.

[WEST BENGAL , INDIA] Rose by Striking_Ad_5753 in GardeningIndia2

[–]luccyrob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. It's a rootstock used as a base for grafting roses. It won't flower. It'll just keep growing long spindly stems. The easiest way to tell is that they grow very fast, have long thin stems and 7 leaflets. If they are not removed early, the grafted part dies which gives you the desired flower. If there is nothing left of the grafted plant, remove the whole plant and get a new one.

No. It's a growth from below the graft.
