FUNGUS ON ROSES. 



We enclose a few rose leaves which 

 are affected with some kind of disease. 

 We would like to know the cause and 

 remedy. The leaves we send are off of 

 2-inch pot plants. The plants seem to 

 be thrifty with the exception of the 

 older leaves turning yellow around the 

 edges and curling up. In a house of 

 8,000 there is only one spot affected this 

 way but it seems to be spreading slowly. 

 Any information concerning this trouble 

 would be gladly received. 



G. N. & F. C. 



When the leaves reached me they 

 were so much dried up that it was al- 

 most impossible to diagnose the trouble 

 but they are evidently affected with a 

 fungus very much resembling the rose 

 leaf blight and which if unchecked can 

 do a lot of damage in a short time. It 

 may not be this identical fungus i)ut it 

 would be safe to treat it as such. Spray 

 with the carbonate of copper compound, 

 using five ounces of the carbonate of cop- 

 per to three quarts of ammonia and six- 

 ty gallons of water. Spray once a week 

 using a fine nozzle and wet every patt 

 of the leaves. This is a sovereign rem- 

 edy for many of the fungi which trou- 

 ble the rose under glass. Eibes. 



DOROTHY PERKINS RAMBLER. 



Kindly give me some advice as to 

 forcing the new rambler rose, Dorothy 

 Perkins. I want them for Easter. They 

 are in splendid shape now, just beginning 

 to break. G. J. E. 



We have not forced this fine pink ram- 

 bler rose since the spring of 1903) but 

 it is only through neglect or carelessness, 

 for it is well worth forcing, and except 

 that its color is not so showy as Crim- 

 son Bambler, it is just as desirable an 

 Easter plant. Your plants are evidently 

 in just the right condition. You should 

 tie them into desirable shape. Keep 

 them sprayed daily, and 50 degrees at 

 night should do very well for another 

 month ; 5 degrees higher may be needed 

 near flowering time. The few dozen we 

 forced sold well. The cooler these ram- 

 blers can be flowered the better the color 

 and larger the flowers will be. W. S.
