Black leg, I'll bet. Do the raised beds have lots of compost in them? Potatoes do well in a soil that doesn't have too much organic matter in it which can keep the soil too wet. Lately I've had regularly spaced rain and even though my beds are raised the compost has kept them quite wet.

Hi, Kentstar. You've been a good sport listening to all this advice, so here're other suggestions. My best guess is that you shocked your plant and that your plant's young roots are reacting to the soil amendments. For now, less is more. Don't drown the rose. Do NOT fertilize it. Do NOT prune the rose. It can protest to the point of dropping all the leaves and still survive. One way of saying that is the proverbial, "Step away from the rose." You can't take that comment any way but as a joke with a kernel of truth behind it. Water-don't water until after you rake back the mulch and use a garden trowel to dig down in the soil about 10 inches next to (but not touching the rootball) your rose. This is where you will test for soil moisture - not wet and not dry. The surface moisture isn't very instructive. In other words, put your pinkies in the soil. Manure, Bonemeal and greensand - in general, the roots of young plants should never come into contact with your fertlizer amendments. In other words, don't fertilize young plants until they are growing well. Natural doesn't mean harmless. Even composted manures can be too strong for some young plants. The more amendments I add to soil before plant, the more time I give them to mellow and cure a bit in the soil before planting. Bone meal should be in the bottom of the hole, below the roots, not mixed into the soil. I suggest in the future that you amend your soil in advance (except for the bone meal or other source of phosphorus), water if necessary, and let is sit a few days to a couple of weeks if you buffer pH by adding lime. When you plant, put a layer of soil between your plant and the bone meal of super phosphate or whatever you use. Weather - I seriously doubt 35 or 40 degrees had any effect on your rose. I garden in Zone 8-9, and grow cuttings outside all winter with no protection at all. Temps drop down below 20, and the plants are fine. Planting Depth - In the future, consider planting own root plants deeper. The soil protects the canes from drying out while the plant adjusts to garden conditions. I'd plant up to the first set of branching canes. Good luck.

njitgrad: Never had a problem with wilting before in 4 years so I doubt the containers are too hot for the roots. Just because things were fine before doesn't mean they're going to be fine now. Conditions differ every year. If you make your 5-1-1 fresh every year, there could be a difference in the particle size/absorbency of the materials you use, etc. I always water them heavily with each watering. When I say heavily I mean until water seeps out of all sides of the containers including the bottom. Probably about 2 gallons of water per plant. It depends on the rate of watering. If you dump a lot of water quickly, much of it may run off without hydrating the mix properly. Also, if the mix is getting too dry in between waterings, it doesn't matter how much you water when you do water. 5-1-1 is a well-draining mix, so it won't hold onto a lot of water. It's not like growing in-ground. So excess water does nothing, just drains away. The key is enough water at the optimum frequency. A ton of water but not often enough will still lead to drought stress if you're growing in containers with a well-draining mix. I understand that it's frustrating that what you did before is not having the same good results today, but it doesn't really help your plants to reject advice because what you were doing before worked before. It's obviously not working now for some of your plants.

I agree with Chris the PLR is really common in certain varieties. I can't speak for Black Krim, but some of my "regular leaved" plants will really curl and wilt, usually in the evening. That being said, do you see any aphids/whiteflies on your plants? I doubt that's the cause, but it has happened to me before. Your soil looks quite hardpacked to me, and kind of waterlogged below the plant. How much have you been watering? It's possible it's being drowned. Tomatoes, some more than others, really like it dry in my experience. If I water too much I get those exact symptoms. I hardly ever water them except when adding a little fertilizer. EDIT: Oops, you said the other plants are being watered equally....so watering is out. Hmm
