I newly planted three rosebushes 2weeks ago is it to past due to replant them? When I bought them they were lush and green blooming, immediately...

When I bought them they were lush and green blooming, immediately the leaves are yelllow and falling off. I be told that i may have over fertilized them. Does any one know if it is to postponed to dig them out and replant near new soil. Please minister to this is my first time tring to plant roses. My three year old and I picked them and I hope I can at lowest save one.
You can dig them up and start over. I would guess the root system is probably alike as the day you planted them. Hopefully, you haven't burned the roots too feebly.all you can do is try!


Ooops! Fertilized beside what?? Generally I don't believe in fertilizing near anything more than a phosphorous fertilizer at planting. Oh well.

If it is too much fertilizer, chemical type, it can be wash through the soil with plenty of hose. Nitrogen is very wate soluable and wash out. Chances are this is the culprit. Of course if you soil doesn't drain properly...then excess marine will completely kill the roses by drowning the roots.but consequently the roses shouldn't have be put there to start.

Would I move them. No unless you own a very flawless reason to suspect nearby is poor drainage underneath or there's no way you can mop up away the fertilizer (if that was the cause).

There are sooooo various reasons why the leaves are yellowing and falling sour...most relate to transplanting problems (broken root ball, nouns pockets in the soil, dry pockets, dampen saturation, etc, etc), temperature problems (too hot, too cold, too windy).

Transplanting them will exact more stress, but if you feel the strange place is better in oodles ways, try it.
Answers:    Good report for you. If you go contained by and just replace partially the soil you should be fine. Also..you can plant all year round. Having leaves on them tell me they aren't bare root so yes you can move them if you so choose. Could it be that you over watered them?? The leaves turning wan and dropping is a tale myth sign of over watering. Doesn't sound similar to a fertilizer issue to me. As long as you can break the ground...you can plant. Just remember to water prudently and don't over water. Good approach to check is to dig down in the order of 5 inches below the soil and see if there is profoundly of moisture about 2-3 hours after you wet...or before you marine. Dig down and check. Sure sounds to me like you hold a case of over watering on your hand. You should also wait to fertilize. Let the roots try to bring back established before the poor plant have to worry nearly pushing growth!!

Here is some reading for you..hope this helps.
