Rose Canker, Chlorosis & Thrips on my David Austins | Here She Grows

My David Austin Roses are being put to the test by gardener error, high soil pH and hungry insects. From rose canker and chlorosis this spring, to thrips and caterpillars last year, maybe I'm not meant to grow roses. Let me show you what these three common rose issues look like and how I address each with vigilance and organic methods.
Also, here are links to the rose gloves and soil soil testing lab I mention in the video...

Hi there! My name is Heather and I garden in zone 5B, recently changed to 6a, in the southwest suburbs of Chicago on a small residential lot. My garden lives a whole lot larger than it is and I love sharing tips and tricks, as well as plenty of mistakes, with others who love to play in the dirt.

Where did you get the Sweet Fragrance rose?

Woldhuis Farms/Sunrise Greenhouse in Grant Park, IL. About an hour south of Chicago. Very worth the ride!
