Rose replant disease...

Now I know it isn't recommended to plant Roses where other Roses have been but it can be done.I made myself a little Rose Parterre and one section wasn't thriving due to me not doing my homework and checking on disease resistance of said rose...so I had to replace them...I dug 3 spits deep and added bonemeal and JI 3....this was done back end of last year and I'm happy to say my new Roses are coming on a treat...So there you go Rose lovers,if I can do it anyone can.

 

Often a puzzler for gardeners. Rose replant disease, yet this disease/problem also affects other trees, shrubs and plants. The actual cause is not known, and as far as I know, soil sample testing etc doesn't identify the existence of it.
Mention has been made in relation to roses, that are grown on Rosa Canine (dog rose) the single white wild rose,rootstock. Times past, canine & rugosa, the pinkish/purplish wild rose roots were used for budding & grafting roses. Now as rose growing has become such very big business, seedling rose stocks are often used.

Like possibly many other gardeners at the time having limited know-how, (forgot how to spell knowledge). I/we may have pulled out a sick or dead rose and replaced it with another. Well said Fred, it worked for me!!! Roses are not cheap, so perhaps to err on the side caution, may well pay dividends in the long run.
