Re: Re: Pascalli

If you decide to start over again and you want to plant it in the same 
place you need to remove the soil that the oder rose was growing in or 
else the new rose will not do well.  The reason for this is not clear, 
but the soil is "poisoned" somehow-it is called rose sick-and a rose 
planted in the same hole that another rose had been in will not do well.  
The solution is to dig out all the soil in the area about 2 - 4 feet 
acros and about 1 - 2 feet down depending on the size of the rose you are 
removing.
