Large Rose Plants Dug and Replanted—Wilting from Root Loss

Moving mature roses without pruning = root:shoot imbalance. Damaged roots can’t support top growth → wilting.

Save Them

  1. Hard prune to 18″ immediately.
  2. Water daily, soaking root zone.
  3. No fertilizer.
  4. Mulch heavily.

They may look sad all summer but will survive. New feeder roots take 6 weeks.
