Re: rose question/weather

Donna, some of your color change could be due to drought stress - assuming your weather has been similar to mine (up until the Labor Day weekend). My Liriodendron (tulip tree) had yellowing of a number of its leaves r/t dryness. I deep watered it and it started to put out new leaves. Now I am coping with > 5 inches of rain, thanks to that stalled front and the caribbean weather system!

I noticed that some trees appear to be changing color just the other day
on my ride to work. Thought it was odd, but didn't have time to pull
over and see if in fact, they were just changing color or something else
was wrong. Been a strange year weather wise here, so anything is
possible. If we stay on the same weather pattern, we are gonna get
hammered with snow.

Sorry Pam, no comment on the rose... all of mine, the very few I have,
are all in the ground here.
