Roundup Damage to Roses – Recovery Protocol

Roundup Damage to Roses – Recovery Protocol

Diluted Roundup damages but rarely kills roses. Symptoms: stubbly green fringes instead of leaves.

Recovery Steps

• Don't prune hard – canes are fine, only leaves damaged.
• Hose down thoroughly – foliage and soil (dilute residual).
• Wait – roses push 3 leaf sets; next set often normal.

If not severe, they outgrow it. Deer repellent unlikely culprit.
