Last year I put over a foot of leaves over it but my Circus Rose died along with most of the mini roses.I dont want this to happen again this year because I'm planting more in the same place
How do I put a rose garden to bed in the fall?
I know that when I put a deep cover of leaves over my tea rose bushes, the leaf cover must have gotten wet and stayed wet or something, because the rosebushes died and never did come back. Maybe the burlap would keep the water from soaking in and wilting/rotting the bushes?
Reply:What part of the country do you live in? If you are in the northern part of the US you may want to trim back in the fall and cover with the styrafoam covers that they make for roses.
Reply:the answer is geographically dependent
Reply:Pack them in leaves like you did but this time cover them with burlap. you would be surprised how effective this is.
