Something that looks like Fire Blight, but isn't?
Comments (3)Thanks Scott. Do I need to treat it with anything or just watch for now to see if it spreads? I have sprayed it once with a fungicide but I didn't notice any change....See MoreWhat happens when the rose you ordered isn't what you ordered?
Comments (10)Believe it or not I got Ducher instead of Duchess of Brabant last week. That is really funny. Same exact problem but, I got mine from Chamblee's. Luckily, I noticed it 2 days later when I was planting it. I called them right up and they apologized and sent me my Duchess on Monday. It should be here by Thursday. The best part was they told me to keep Dutcher. Of course, being that they were sending another order, I had to add to it. It must be a label thing as when I first opened the Box and looked at all the Labels I didn't notice it either. I think we both got lucky as I've done some homework on Dutcher and think we'll grow to like him. Dan...See MoreWhat looks like a Topaz Rugosa but isn't?
Comments (6)I'll try to post a picture tomorrow. I spent most of the morning ripping up the swampy grass all around them. ...which is what was causing the rot. The tallest plant (the one that was roped to a post) is at least six feet tall. The canes are covered with a ton of thorns. Sadly, the pictures I will take probably won't give a great idea of what the plant looks like. The leaves that are on her don't look entirely healthy and the flowers are starting to fall. I will do my best....See MoreWhy isn't my house selling?? What to do now?
Comments (49)Just wanted to post a happy ending update. Shortly after this thread ended, and my new pic were up, we did lower the asking price for sale and rent. Within a week we had 5 more showings for purchase(no offers) but a very qualified renter applied to rent. Unlike my previous tennants who had a very good job, low credit score, BUT always paid their rent on time.. this couple has an excellent income, good credit score and excellent references. They had always owned a home, but were transferred 18 months ago, were planning on it being temporary, so rented. The home they have been renting in Michigan is now up for sale, and I looked at the pictures and they have lovely furnishings, that will fit perfect in my home. I'm very confident it will make the next time I list my home much easier. I have stipulated in our contract a longer 'right to show' clause.. previously 60 days, now 90 days. They stated they might be interested in purchasing at a later date, but are unsure about a future transfer at this point. I would have rather sold the home, but at least we have rental income again- the same amount as I had previoulsy been receiving. And we roll the dice and hope there isn't any further decline in the housing market in the next year or two.. I do always learn by my mistakes! Next time I will insist on better pictures from the start.. besides that.. my realtor really did an excellent job for me, in keeping me well informed of any and all feedback and following up with people frequently. I know those things should just be expected.. but not so much so with my last realtor.. I would definately use her again..just not have her take the pictures!.. and she was very ok with that....See Moreroselee z8b S.W. Texas
