If you're concerned about rose rosette disease, let me describe some if the signs and risk factors for you. The rose rosette virus is spread by eriophyid mites in North America only - rose growers elsewhere in the world can be thankful for that, and hopeful that the virus doesn't find a way to jump continents. The main distribution of the disease follows the establishment of invasive Rosa multiflora - a susceptible variety that spreads through much of North America, and acts as a natural wild "reservoir" of the virus. In this video, I'll discuss the symptoms, measures you can take to minimize risk, and what you should do if you find infected plants in your garden.

All 9 of my knockout roses have this disease. In middle Tennessee, zone 7b. So much care, time and money down the drain. Meanwhile, the knockout roses down at Burger King and Taco Bell that never see a lick of fertilizer, are never trimmed, only rain watered and have roots showing, are flourishing and beautiful.

I just watched your video. My roses are full of blooms and so beautiful. I did notice a chute growing straight up with red leaves and as I was researching mites etc . I saw a pic that looked like mine. I googled it and chose your video as a subscriber to watch and learn. Sadly I will dig up and burn the bush and look for signs on my other roses now. The bush that has the chute is one of my first.It is a knockout variety and looks extremely healthy other than the "witches Broom". I live in North Alabama, if that will be of help to others.Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge with us.

Yes! I’m in north texas. Hard hit by Rrv. I’ve had to remove 26 roses from my landscape. Commercial landscapers won’t remove infected plants making the problem worse. Good info! I’m Actually working on video about this on my channel. The thorns that look like they’re on steroids is a great indicator! I’ve also noticed more ant activity on infected canes which is weird. I only have 1 Rose that hasn’t succumbed. Don’t know the name of this specific rose but it is thornless and heirloom. Every year I cut it completely down to ground in feb and let it regrow. Not certain this is reason why it’s still healthy. Rrv is very sad. 🥀

@FraserValleyRoseFarm 4 года назад

Thanks for sharing your first-hand experience - I'm not hearing that much about it locally (yet!), but in the places it's hitting hard, I know it can be devastating.

@SalongirlGardens 4 года назад

Fraser Valley Rose Farm truly devastating, just so sad. I have read that it’s been around since the 50’s but with the breeding of and over selling knockout roses it really pushed it into the forefront of rose gardening. I do t know if that’s true but in this area knockout roses were everywhere. Everywhere. And they’ve ALL succumbed to it. Thank you for your video and helping make ppl aware.

@FraserValleyRoseFarm 4 года назад

My pleasure. Your point about mass plantings is well taken - the quantities of Knockouts sold into the eastern US over the past couple of decades has been incredible. Those huge roadside and institutional landscape plantings (of what it's now clear is a fairly susceptible variety) would definitely add fuel to the fire, so to speak.

@SpergleberryFarm 4 года назад

Something I read said that the mites overwinter in the buds of the plant, so you're effectively destroying the mite population before it comes back each year? I have an infected plant and am waiting for freezing temps hoping to take out the mites w/the plant.

@timgoodin42053 4 года назад

Yes we have it in West KY, removed several Knock Out roses and burned. Multifloral are everywhere here so removing them is not an option in our area. Thankfully have not seen it for a couple seasons now after removing those infected. As you mentioned I do see it a lot in large plantings. Local horticultural experts are recommending the same strategy remove those infected and destroy also for those that don't mind spraying chemicals some use miticide's but mites tend to become resistant easily. I don't use or recommend it.

Oh wow. This is tragic. I thought a couple of my rose bushes looked like they had cancer. The mutated appearance of rapid out of control growth was just bizarre and no one could tell me what was going on. I just thought my roses needed to move another place so I dug them up and put them in containers. I bet I soaked roots of a few of them in the same water together before transplanting 😰. Oh well, worst case scenario...I’ll have to get rid of them. I guess I can sanitize the pots but never to use them for roses again. I hope a treatment will be discovered before I find out how many I cross-infected.

I'm in North Texas and thought this off shoot looked strange, so I went to my local nursery and was told what it was, They took the shoot and said I could not take it with me and it needed to be burned. I returned home and looked it up on OSU extension page and gives a lot of good information, and I feel most importantly it stated never use a leaf blower around roses, because this blows the mites on your roses and spreads the disease. Terrible loss since I have a entire bed of roses,

Thanks Jason. We had a late freeze. I don't have a lot of open blooms yet but a lot of healthy looking buds. I fed them in February when I pruned and again a few weeks ago to support the new growth. I put two organic Jobes spikes each time. Naturally I had some leaf die off and some occasional red half moons on some leaves with partial die off. I was trying to determine if that was a sign of overe fertilization. I found this video because of abundance of burgundy colored foliage on a couple of bushes. I didn't see any mites just lady bugs.

@FraserValleyRoseFarm 6 месяцев назад

There's not much preventive you can do for rose rosette except for scouting nearby roses for symptoms & prompt removal. It's a windborne mite that spreads the disease, so if you know the prevailing wind direction, you can focus your efforts upwind a ways - looking esp. for wind populations of r. multiflora that seem to be associated with its spread.

@wictorsson 4 года назад

Thanks for another great video. Isn't Rosa canina and Rosa multiflora often used as rotstock for many roses? Does this affect the cultivar rose to make it more likely to be contaminated?

@FraserValleyRoseFarm 4 года назад

Thanks wictorsson. Yes, R. multiflora is a common rootstock, but I'm not sure that makes the scion variety more vulnerable. The mites infest the foliage and flowers, so that would be the entry point for the virus. So the way I think of it, it would be the resistance or vulnerability of the topstock variety (to the mites or the virus itself) that would best determine the risk.

I have a rose w/it on a newly acquired property. My sister is the plant person and has roses herself. In trying to figure out what kind of rose I had, turns out it is a diseased rose. I thought I'd read that you can transport those mites between plants while I was researching. So, I sent information about it w/pictures and told my sister that if she notices the symptoms, to treat the plant as needing to be isolated till she's sure. BUT, my point to her was to NOT go up and handle a rose that looks funny like rose rosette so that she doesn't take what ever it is back to her roses. (My background is with animals that you definitely do quarantine for safety reasons) So, my question. In your research, did you see anything about being able to transfer the mites between plants on your person from handling an infected rose? I would feel terrible if her roses all come down with this next spring.

Thanks. I didn't see anything specific about human spread of the mites - mainly that the mites were spread by wind.

And yeah, I'd be real sure not to share tools or even gloves between them.

Hi Jennifer. Red growth on its own is not something to worry about. There are more clear-cut signs like the extreme distortion of new growth - but even those can be mistaken because of herbicide drift, etc. If you're at all unsure, you should look for a local lab to confirm the diagnosis. It doesn't spread to hydrangeas, but can spread to nearby roses.

Hi Lois. Red is fine - better than fine actually. It's the color of vigorous new growth. It's only when you see the other symptoms: "witch's broom", twistiness, abnormal thorniness, congestion that I'd be concerned initially. Give it a little time. In a healthy rose, the deep red growth will begin to harden off and transition to green over the next couple of weeks. In RRD, it just gets more congested and stays red.

Ouch! That's a good question, but I actually don't know the answer. My impression of the role of R. multiflora in the spread of RRD was as a susceptible naturalized host plant in the wild.

Last year over the summer I had a rose with rose rosette (I removed and burned it). It was a new rose I had planted in spring and in an area of the yard with no other roses having been planted before so I feel convinced the rose came w the virus. My question is about another rose, from same supplier, planted at the same time about 30feet apart is coming out of winter dormancy and it has some dark mottling on the canes but my actual concern is it has a lot of very tiny thorns covering the canes. These are the canes from last year, they are not new growth with that classic rose rosette look like the other rose had, but of course I’m paranoid.

I had recently repotted into a planter on the side of the house and had added some compost and slow feed. Perhaps that helped
