Question:
Answers:
how often are you watering it? what type of fertilizer are you using? what type of soil did you plant with? These are all very important details. water every other day or whenever soil is dry around root base. Use a fish emmolient organic fertilizer every 15 days. make sure your potting soil does not contain heavy fetilizers, the nitrates
will burn the roots.
It's probably getting too much water.
sound's like to much water when watering always water at base not on the leaves's make sure you do not have to much mulch or soil around base try some rose food (home depot ect.)keep watered but not to much when leave turn yellow it usually means to much water
There are three possibilities. You don't say whether it is in ground or in a pot? But I presume it's in the ground? Firstly you may be watering it too much.Water in the evening when sun has gone down. Water only once a week.It may be lacking fertiliser-Rose Food from garden center.Thirdly you may have a Virus in the ground.Roses are very suseptible to viruses which thrive in soil. Once in the soil,your rose will eventually die. There is another reason,it may not be planted deep enough.Or somehow the main feeder root is not getting enough moisture.Best bet would be to re-plant it. But that has to be done late Autumn,or early winter. Good Luck!
You are probably over watering the rose bush or it is not getting enough sunlight. Also check the soil ph..it should be between 6.0 to 7.0 I always give mine miracle top soil and every month miracle grow mixed with water. My first rose bush did not get enough early sun and the leaves had like mildew marks on the leaves so I moved it and then it was fine. Check with your nursery or home depot they are pretty sharp about bushs and plants!
u need some fertilizer with some nitrogen in it! try miracle gro for roses! and water only once per week!
common "blackspot" is a problem as well.. harmless to the plant, but it makes it look bad! pull gently on the effected leaves to remove them from the bush.
go here and check this stuff out from bayeradvanced. it'll solve all problems with roses including "yellow leaves". i wouldn't have roses without this stuff!
Test the ph. Roses will grow best in a neutral soil of ph 6.5-7. Kits aren't that expensive. Organic matter such manure will increase the acidity if the soil is too alkaline; if the soil is too acid, you will need to add lime. Also, they love mulch and compost so heap some of that on. They like to be well drained and not sitting in wet boggyness. Try to make a mound around the rose so that water doesn't sit at the trunk, but runs off. Don't water too much. Once per week is fine. Also, every two-four weeks, give them a watering with water mixed with a liquid seaweed fertilizer. Finally, roses love sun, so make sure that you haven't erected anything recently that may be blocking it.
