My rose bush looks like it's dying. Help please
Comments (24)How much water is it receiving? Looks healthy fo me. Look on underside of yellowing leaves for any black dots, which could indicate the start of a fungal disease called black spot. You can remove those leaves & any fallen leaves below the rose. to prevent the spores from reinfecting the plant. Also apply mulch around your roses. This helps prevent fungal spores found naturally in the soil from splashing upward when it rains or you water. The mulch also acts as a weed block and decreases watering requirements by keeping the soil below moist. Use about a 3” layer. Don’t pile the mulch against the canes either....See MorePLEASE help me choose showy red rose
Comments (7)One word of warning with Home Run--very sharp prickles and lots of them! You don't want anyone having to walk closely by them, or they may be permanently snagged on Home Run. Other than that, Home Run has made a great 3x3 ft hedge for me in Zone 6 Midwest. Don't know how it handles JBs--we dont' have them here (knock on wood!). Here is Home Run last year. They could be planted a bit closer for a more continuous look, but I wanted a slight space between them.

Comments (2)Well, the red one could be a lot of different roses -- there are a ton of red roses out there and your best bet would be to dig around in the dirt around the bottom and see if you can uncover a tag, which may or may not be still attached to the plant, and/or grown into the bottom stems -- I've found them both ways, even as much as twenty years after the plant was planted. (People ask me to ID things all the time, and you'd be amazed how often we can root around in the bottom of the plant and find the silly label still in the general vicinity -- the little round metal disk that used to come on nearly every rose which was how the breeders kept track of their licensing fees, when that system still worked.) The striped one appears to be Scentimental...See MorePlease help ID these two red roses
