Bart, CB is Coryneum Blight. It is not often a bad disease in the east but I got a very bad case of it from a tree I purchased out of a California nursery. It is nearly gone now, but not quite. I would ignore that line. Well, in general its not a bad idea to use dormant copper every now and then on stone fruit due to its good activity on both CB and bacterial spot. Copper can build up in the soil over many years so on the other hand L/S should be used most of the time. L/S is indeed lime sulphur and any good garden center should have it pre-mixed. It is possible to brew your own but for small amounts it is cheap enough to buy the pre-mixed version. Scott

I wish mine would drop all of them. Otherwise some hang on until harvest. Then I have to pick them off. But mine are in a greenhouse with no wind or rain. The Fruitnut

Is it getting enough water? Assuming it is getting enough water, then: some roses do this. It is sometimes called "self cleaning". The Austin rose 'Heritage', for example, always did this in my yard. The flowers lasted just a few hours after opening; dry heat was not what it liked. The advantage of a "self cleaning" rose is apparent in cool, damp summer climates, such as the UK. There, if the petals do not drop, they can easily form a fuzzy mass of putrescent grey fungus. So the moral of the story is: there is a rose for every climate, and certain features that are desirable in one climate are not desirable in another climate or, even in another garden in the same climate. Some people like the look of petals scattered everywhere, while others do not. Do you know which variety of rose it is?
