It's probably to late to hose your rose down as this it what could of been done if you relaised it was weedkiiler say half an hour after spraying, but only if the weather allowed. one for paths would show signs in hours not weeks.

Maybe it isn't as far advanced as the climbing rose and therefore a little less suseptable to frost.ģ weeks for weedkiller is a little longer though than i would expect weedkiller to start work, but if it were a in the pipe and had been weakened by the black spot spray, the results may of been delayed.

Their graceful, shrubby habits make them ideal for mixed borders, planting in large containers or for creating any kind of rose garden. There is a chance that there was residual weedkiller in the sprayer. As a group they are renowned for their outstanding health, reliability and vigor.
