Message: [QUOTE="meddlingmage, post: 85055, member: 3777"] To start off, I am very new to all of this and have never really gardened before. I purchased a hybrid double knockout rose tree/plant and it has essentially gone from a beautifully fully bloomed bush to... a pretty sad rose bush covered in deadheads (I think that's what they are called). If I were to "deadhead" my plant... I would essentially be cutting it down to nothing except stems and... I'm kind of lost on what to do really? I was under the impression these bushes needed very little maintenance and you didn't really need to deadhead them but... the whole thing is essentially dead bulbs and it saddens me. Maybe its just the time of year/weather? [/QUOTE]
