My New Horticultural Blog

Due to the exceptionally warm winter, or exceptionally studly plants, the roses on my balcony survived.  But one of the bushes looks kinda…  odd…

See?  There’s a white powder thing going on, and there seems to be a lot of spider web action going on, too.  But mainly around the buds.

So is this a disease of some kind?  Or is it environmental?  They’ve been renovating the neighbouring house the last few weeks, and there’ a lot of white dust flowing around everywhere.

But I do think it looks kinda diseased.

Should I get rid of the roses?  I had kinda assumed that they would die during the winter, so I would plant vegetables there this summer…

Mmm.  Peas.
