My Knockout Rose Bushes- Did I kill my rose bushes?
Comments (2)Right, don't fertilize until they have recovered and have put out plenty of leaves. Bloom Buster is the wrong kind of fertilizer--regular Miracle Gro or Miracle Gro for Roses is fine, or any reasonably balanced fertilizer such as 10-10-10 or 18-6-12. Watering correctly is the most important thing. Keep a 2" mulch of leaves or bark around the roses. When the soil under the mulch feels dry-ish, water thoroughly with 2-3 gallons for small plants or 5 gallons for larger, plus or minus for extremely hot or very mild, cloudy weather. Usually once a week is fine. For new plants, I divide the ration in half and water twice a week....See MoreI believe my first Brug seedling has Y'd- seed from Gary
Comments (4)Shawn thanks. Oh yes how I would love to see and have a ORANGE :-) So you think I am right about the Y...I just can not pin point WHERE it is? In the left picture on the bottom? You know this morning I said to my hubby that there is SOMETHING going on in this flowerbed!!! EVERYTHING grows HUGE in there. Got the same EE in the whiskey barrel and it does not come close to be as big as this one is! And yes that is the MOMMY from the Babies I send out :-) Mine gets sun until about 2 or 3 pm. But so does the whiskey barrel one. Lucy...See More**finally** first seedling to bloom 09 - pics
Comments (16)Thanks everyone... I was so happy! It was raining cats and dogs here yesterday with lightning and thunder, but that didn't stop me from going out to take photos with an umbrella!! This is a seedling that was planted in the yard in fall of '08. I have four other sibs, but none of them have even got a scape yet. Funny how crosses work.

Comments (5)The first has bloomed now, and I've posted pictures. I'm doing a time lapse video of these growing, so I think I have the light too far away to accommodate the cameras. They are under a 7" humidity dome, and the light is on top. If I didn't have to accommodate the cameras, I'd put the light about an inch or two away from the top of the plant....See MoreAlana8aSC
