Is there a home remedy to take care of a rose bush??


Question:the flowers are blooming fine...it's just my leaves are dying!! they turn yellow w/ dark brown-black spots and then just fall off? i need a cheap way to replace the rose food that it might need...or is it another problem?

Answers:
What you have is a disease called black spot. It's a fungus. You can treat it fairly easily, although you will have to be persistent until you get it under control. First, work a layer of corn meal into the soil around the plants. Then spray the leaves with a 1:10 solution of milk to water. However, if you have lost too many leaves, you may have to prune the plants back to the first healthy area and start from there.


you may be watering to much
just water in the morning
rotten banana peels help
good luck they're hard to take care of
