    Last fall (in October) I ordered rose seedlings by mail from the nursery. Planting material was excellent - several green stems with living buds. Planted by all the rules, the roses took root. At a temperature of -10 degrees, I covered them on arcs with a spanbond in one layer. So for 10 years now I have been hiding roses. Once I looked under the shelter at the end of winter - everything was in order. And in the spring it opened and gasped: there is a gray-brown fluffy coating on the plants, spores are scattered ... The affected shoots broke off when pressed with a hand - as if they were completely dry. Some of them have 1-2 cm of living tissue below, to which they cut the shoots. I’ve been growing roses for 15 years - and I’ve never seen such a sore. Help me figure out what happened to the flowers.

      - Alas, a bacterial or fungal disease can not always be recognized when buying planting material. The ailment can manifest itself in favorable conditions - when warm and humid weather sets in (and this was exactly how the current abnormally mild winter was).

      Most likely, these are signs of one of the rot - a fungal disease, a phenomenon quite common on roses. You need to understand that if spores are raining, all the tissues of the plant are affected inside. But still try to compete for roses - treat with a broad-spectrum fungicide (Switch, Fundazole). Spray all plants regularly (every 2-3 weeks) during the season.
