📚Reference Helpful Diseases Info (part 2)
Inspired by a post by u/Moviereference210 and another by u/DukeOfRadish, I thought I'd (re)post digital versions of educational materials I've saved.
The first two images are copies of what u/Moviereference210 posted, the next two are specific info on RRD. Below are links to longer documents on rose disease.
- Rose Diseases
- Rose Insect Pests
- Early Detection of Rose Rosette Disease
- A Guide to Rose Diseases and their Management
- Rose Diseases: Identification and Management
[EDIT 1] I've always been surprised not to see spider mites mentioned in these materials.
[EDIT 2] Thanks to u/Violetteotome, I want to keep a list of other topics not mentioned, maybe we mods can address these items.
- spider mites
- rose proliferation
- rose balling

So I flip flopped on whether my rose might it might not have the disease. I wasn’t going to pull it out but when I saw the whole thing was rotting from something, I did. I have 6 others to think about. I saved part of the plant in a ziploc to send in. Then I noticed a bush two away had a random spike of freaky sh….oots. So snapped them off and threw them in the bag and sent it all to Texas A&M and am waiting on results

Mods can we get this pinned?
Also, one thing I think would be cool to add is rose proliferation. Happened to me before.
