RE: Rose Rosette Virus

Marya,

I'm from the Pacific Northwest and thus far I have not had any
problems with Rose Rosette Virus. I asked our local Extention Agent
and he had no news of it in my area.  When I mentioned that this
disease was transmitted by mites, he also said that we don't have
much problems with mites.  Mites like hot long seasons, like Texas,
were I had read that the problem was very prevalent. 

I read several of the articles on line.  The first one gives several
suggestions for eliminating this problem, and mentions some roses
are susceptible, (hybrid teas with multiflora roots) some are not.

You've probably read some of this information, it's has been  
mentioned on this list before, but these are updates.

Hope this can soon be controlled.
Sorry to hear of your sad news.
